Any one missed the RM Training on Blue Peter?

[ash2003]

to be honest i missed most of it 2. I set the video up to tape it off the CBBC channel repeated this aftanoon. The episodes of BP are only about 25 minutes so im guessing the marines stuff'll b bout 15-20 mins. I'll cut all the crap out. At a guess the file will be 30-60Mb

It filled the whole program, only thing was, it was a repeat, three years old. So a level 9 on the bleep test would not be acceptable for a pass today, also most of the stuff is in a different order to what us potentials are facing. Did I hear somewhere that the assault course should be completed in 4mins? The Blue Peter porker did it in 5. Plus, he had the entire training staff going, "Go on Matt!", "You can do it Matt!", doubt most potential recruits would get that sort of treatment. Plus, he got to take a break during gym test 1, because he felt ill. After the warm-up.

iv just written a speech along the lines of Churchills "Beaches" speech, about how " we will nevva surrendda our 56k! ", but then my comp crashed and i lost it. im not gonna type it up agen, but trust me: it was a hoot!

[ash2003]

I promise Ill get that vid soon. My capture card has crap sound n i used to have a sound lead that i made but ant got it no more. *But* my mate has got a decent card so ill get him to make the vid 4 me. dunno how long itll be, maybe a week. Personally, when I have my interview im gonna watch the official training vids again.

If you fail the PRMC 3 times 'your out'. Of course you can apply for the navy and 2-3 years down the line apply for the commando course. When i did the aptitude tests someone failed the test and had to opt to join the navy instead of the RM.

[Peds]

oh. how many people dont make it all three times? that would really be a kick in the teeth.

[ash2003]

An update on that video. I have it but could not find a place to host the file (its 60Mb) If you PM me then we'll arrange a time to transfer the vid directly from me to you or via a p2p network such as kazaa.

www.campus.ie have a 25mb storage area on their free email account. You could open 3 accounts and divide the programme into three segments and post one to each address. We could then log into each account and download it from there.

There are plenty of free webspace providers out there that even offer 100mb.
Do a search with Google.

[ash2003]

I know that. I found a provider offering unlimited space but they didnt give enough bandwidth for each file. You could upload 60 1Mb files but not a 60Mb file. I tried splitting them up but it still wudnt work. Most free hosts have this limit. Thats why so many people pay for hosting.

Anyone whos got kazaa can try this way.

On search in kazaa click video, then more search options. Tick the artist box then type in ash2003. If nothing is found click search more. It should find the video. It is titled 'Royal Marines PRMC Video'. Good luck

I would have preferred to go for a POC intstead of PRMC but I kind of chose the wrong course after high school. I should have done A levels but chose a 2 year GNVQ Advanced ICT couse worth 2 A levels. I studied for a few months and recently I quit because there was no discipline or organisation in the course wat so eva and there was no teaching at all.

thats the exact same thing that happened to me, same outcome and all.....

iam starting the process in March once i turn 18
