TIMMYBOYB89 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 BadAss, i'll do you a deal:- if you pass the physical/medical test i don't have to pay you for the tracers at AG and if you don't, you pay me to take the tracers of your hands. ...Its a lose, lose situation. Only kidding, good luck mate!! Oh and just getting up at 9:00am would be a physical test for me!! Link to post Share on other sites
HaVoC Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 True about the 9am thing Good luck mate - I thought that stupid 'bleep test' at school was hard Good luck again! Link to post Share on other sites
CountDoom Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Hell! You did the bleep test as well? God it sucks, i think i made my lungs bleed! The most active boy in the shool got to like 9 or something, mabe more, and the police one is about 15 or something rediculas. I am never joining the forces , stick to being a barrister and airsofting. Xander Link to post Share on other sites
rizzo Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 i think i made my lungs bleed! Nah, it's not that bad, all it needs is hard work and slight modifications to the tape... Link to post Share on other sites

joeking27 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Bleep test, Level 14 thank you very much, nearly died as a result, but i did beat all but one person. Link to post Share on other sites
HaVoC Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 All but one...level 14... *dies* I got 7 or something utterly balls like that, but then again I didn't really care Link to post Share on other sites
doc_newstead Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I should think getting in is the easy part mate Good luck though. I know a few people who've passed selection, then dropped out in Phase 1. I hope it's what you want; God knows I'd love to join you /doc begrudgingly starts going for runs again.

destrukto Posted September 28, 2004 Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 I think getting up by noon is a challenge sometimes We don't have a standard PT test over here in the states As for running, it seems that I too have developed a smokers lung and I don't even smoke. I used to be pretty fast off the line (for a lineman anyways) when I played American football, but chasing running backs down the field wasn't something I was any good at (unless I wanted to kill myself). I may not be the fastest, but I get there, eventually Anyways, good luck with the Royal Marines (weren't they the chaps that invaded the wrong country during a military exercise?)

BadAssTronaut Posted September 28, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2004 Cheers guys, there was no bleep test involved, they said I wouldn't be taking one of those until the PRMC, just had to do easy things really, like one mile on the treadmill in under 9 1/2 mins. Anyway, I passed Well chuffed Link to post Share on other sites

BadAssTronaut Posted September 29, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Thanks guys Ubar, the PRMC is meant to be really tough, after having seen the video of the wannabe recruits on the PRMC I'd have to agree. Link to post Share on other sites
