I Attempted the Air Force Special Warfare PAST Test (without practice)

today i'm attending the air force pararescue  physical agility and stamina test i'm here   with brian he's gonna be my proctor  kind of nervous about it he kind of   looks like he's gonna roast me but it's okay  i'm gonna do my best shot let's rock and roll   hey everybody bk here former air force  pararescueman and i'm here today to give   austin alexander a physical agility and stamina  test this is the first test on the path to   becoming an air force special warfare operator  let's see what he's got all right austin first   event is the pull-ups and we're gonna do as many  pull-ups as possible if your feet come and hit off   the ground or if you let go of the bar the event  is over we've got some gazimo and the grass in the   background so if you guys hear the lawnmower don't  roast me in the comments i'm gonna start like this   and we're gonna go up and over chin over the bar  down easy okay minimum eight minimum of eight we   want a lot more than that though i would say to  be competitive you're gonna wanna hit at least   14. prepare to mount the bar mount the bar and  hang begin one two three nine keep it going that's ten let's go you got a few  more get up get up i'll count that 12.   got one more come on you got it get up austin  all right 12 good ones though it was pretty good   good job more than i thought i could do all right  so the this next rest is for two minutes and then   we're going into push-ups yep this is the push-up  it's all the way up all the way down uh no butt in   the air nothing like that we're gonna go regular  push-up straight back we're gonna go down one   down two copy that okay no there's none of  this there's no resting in the air if you   want to the only authorized rest position is the  starting position this is the starting position   so if you got to take a minute  that's fine but then go back to work   and do it okay got you and you have two minutes  to do this exercise as many as you can ready go   one two three four five six seven eight nine  ten 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24   25 26 27 28 29 30 that's 25 seconds gone you  got plenty of time 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38   39 forty seconds gone 41 42 43 44 45 you got  it come on keep it up 45 sitting at 45 pushups   46 47 48 49 get that 50th good job that's one  minute four seconds gone at 50. 51 52 good   53 54. go awesome you got this man 55 that's  1 minute 30 seconds gone you got 30 seconds   left push it 56 get up 57 15 seconds  austin push it out get up austin get up and that's a conclusion 57 push-ups just  to the deck ruined me probably should have   been a little more conservative on those those  push-ups i'm going to go ahead and take a lay   yeah you got you got a  minute and 10 seconds to rest all right start getting focused austin all right  so for air force special warfare for pear rescue   we do sit ups where i'm gonna i'm gonna i'm  going to hold your ankles you get two minutes   you have to lace your fingers behind your head  the fingers cannot come unlaced that's different   and it's going to be basically very simple you're  going to be laying this is the starting position   and when i say go you're going to come up one  okay you want your body all the way at least at   least uh perpendicular to the ground okay keep  your fingers on your lace behind your head and   i'll be holding your ankles give you a little  bit more support on that i've never done a test   where my fingers are locked behind my head i'm  usually doing collars that's the navy yeah the   navy does that but in the air force they still  do it old-timey uh if you don't don't rest on a   laid-back if you rest more than like a second or  two they'd call the test so get once you get down   your back hits the ground get right back up okay  all right we got two minutes i'm gonna hold your   ankles interlace your fingers behind your head  ready go one all the way up two there you go three   four five fourteen thirty seconds gone fifteen  16 21 don't lay on the ground let's go 22 get up austin 23. yeah boston 24. come on  27. two more let's go 28. one more let's   go my course is done we'll call it oh i didn't  even think about that i was fixing my shirt 28   good ones what's the minimum 50 yeah it's a  this is one this is the sit-ups creep on people   this is new for me you know i've never done one  of these yeah never 10 minute break austin let's   get ready to run all right austin next event  you had your break after calisthenics this is   the 1.5 mile run we're on a track that's about  0.3 miles so we're gonna do five laps on this   uh we're shooting for a max time of 10 20.  obviously you want to go faster than that   so go hard kick some let's freaking do it ready  to go ready all right on your marks get set go we got some fast boys doing this run  so like i've seen dudes do this in like   below nine minutes easy so we got  some we got some movers out there   austin's a big boy so we'll

underwater   let's get to that pool when i got to the navy you  know i was like blindsided by a bunch of stuff   you know how it is you know coming out having to  develop my own schedule having to pretty like kind   of reestablish relationships with people and form  new relations people it's not it's it's completely   different and i gained a little weight last year  over the course of october november december   january february kind of stressing stressing  about the conversion out of the navy and   and everything but april may came around and i  feel like i came back strong i'm down about 20   pounds now doing these tests running a lot more  and it's people like you that that comes here and   helps me get into the zone and helps legitimately  train me so i appreciate you a lot for coming out   yeah anytime thanks for having me it's a pleasure  all right austin next event we're doing two 25   meter underwater swims you're gonna shove off  from this wall go subsurface you're going to   swim until you get to the opposite wall touch the  wall freestyle back here once you get back here   you have three minutes to rest and we're gonna  do one more after that got it and i hear
