Your Life as Every Spetsnaz Rank

Описание: What does it actually take to climb through every rank of Russia's most feared special operations force? Spetsnaz operators jump from aircraft at eight thousand meters in total darkness, swim frozen lakes with demolition charges strapped to their bodies, and execute missions in countries the Russian Ministry of Defense has never publicly acknowledged. This video takes you through every single rank — from an eighteen year old conscript shivering in minus twenty two degree formation at a garrison outside Nizhny Novgorod earning two hundred and ten dollars a month, through the brutal selection process where ninety out of one hundred and twenty candidates are broken and eliminated, through years of training in explosives, suppressed weapons systems, close combat, HALO parachute insertions, and underwater sabotage, all the way up to the general who briefs the supreme commander in rooms where a single sentence sends young men into helicopters bound for operations the world will never hear about. Every rank. Every ruble. Every scar.

In this video we cover:

Russian military conscription and the path from motor rifle brigade to Spetsnaz candidacy
