That doesn't look particularly gruelling. Although my aged back wouldn't appreciate the situps I suspect.

Don't fancy it though. hehe

Watched his climb up Everest couple years back, getting stroppy with his sherpa, horrible man.
Actually, he's quite a nice bloke.

Fair enough, maybe it's just his social media persona.

I spent a couple of hours in his company...just me and him...in a confined space!

He’s ok....nothing special, not particularly bright or interesting.

Did anyone see BBC breakfast this morning? There was a feature on that nutter that pushed the toddler off the Tate, and after the recording of his plan (from a year back), there was a brief interview with his carer that made the recording - prefaced with the standard "who asked to remain anonymous" disclaimer.
As soon as the voice began I thought "that sounds just like Foxy". Then after a bit it cut to a silhouetted figure sitting in a chair - a proper unit of a bloke...

Anyone know if he does voiceover/acting work?!

1.45m static jump is mental for most mortals. 1.25m is hard enough from standing.

Doing a cross-Google search suggests that it's a static lift instead. http://armyfitnesstest.co.uk/training-guide/soldie...

JUst read your edit. biggrin
I was in the gym last night and using the boxes to stretch, I stacked them to around 120 which I could do but would take effort/build up, couldn't be bothered to go find one to take it to 140+ but it did seem beyond me.

I think the dark haired one was a good choice, masses of internal strength he could draw on, missed why the lil girl went out. THe head the ball, you could see he was close to cracking and lamping the interrogators, not sure he should have passed. biggrin

2 worthy winners, but I agree the smaller lady should have been there

They seem to get to the end and then start failing people for trivial st. They've all made mistakes, it's like they've forgotten the times they excelled. And base their decision on that last day.


What did the Olympian compete in?

I enjoyed the last episode but didnt really enjoy the series as a whole. Need to go back and watch the early ones again to see why I thought they were better. I do think this season the candidates were all a bit dull. It's also turning into the Ant Middleton show and he is turning into a pastiche of himself.

The general message seems to be villians and wronguns sigh here.
Yes they will have their faults smashed out of them but I get the impression they want
people that will do anything.
A decent person would refuse a lot of orders. Its not like we are always the goodies.
probably spend a lot of time disrupting and damaging nations we have a beef with or someone we favour has.
A normal well adjusted individual would stuggle with this.
Maybe thats all the lads with PTSD.
