thousands of young appalling men compete to join this elite unit just you know. only a few to make it. feel to loved swears and here is one of one east finds out what it takes to join the world's fiercest fighting. 'd these boys are about to face the toughest. 10 days of the lives recruits into a 2020 central selection mock most rugged culture. they've basin thousands of

hopefuls to get here but that's nothing compared to what they'll have to do next i live out our. pocket marker. every year the british army holds a grueling competition in a pool to select the newest members of its legendary brigade to march on. diana her knauss. jimmy kimmel john crow. many have trained for yes' to get here every test every point every 2nd counts so you must focus on the prize is a career as an elite soldier and british passports for the whole family but they have to be willing to fight and even die for the u.k. . so garner deployed whom dinah bunny to baghdad for connor has.

only the brightest in strongest will be selected. for the others it will be the crushing in of a mind flung dream best of a dinner party so work among. it's easier to get into harvard university then to join the british corkers more than $12000.00 boys applied this year and the army is going to take less than 4 percent. in the. groom is hoping to be one of the chosen few. he's from a family a family life has always been a struggle for them but this is kemal one chance to change that. the only thing i can think about right now is joining the british army there's

nothing else. if i succeed i'll be able to get my parents out of poverty give them a normal life and all the happiness they deserve. to prepare for the gear to try out kemal and his best friend have been at this training center for the last 2 years. they've both tried and failed to join the british army before so this year the pressure is really on. obviously i want both of us to get in but if only my friend makes it i won't be sad or jealous it will be a proud moment for me. nick stall a friend cut up is packed and ready to go. if. from.

there. i'll draw lessons learned that a dog. is the. first. cut acts pretty nervous himself it will be life changing if he's accepted into the kircus some big thing for me and then for my mother also. her only dream is for me to join the british army so that i can give us a good life so that i can have a better future. to it all. credits mom raised him in a tiny village with no running water his father an elder sister died when he was ice she's all he has father the mirror head of the family and i knew. my father was the head of the family but after he died all the responsibility fell

on my mother's shoulders society looked down on her because she was a widow it was so hard for her to raise and educate me. prim kumari ran a small fruit stall to support her son but there was never enough money she had to borrow from lunch shocks to pay for credit training. now she owes about $10000.00 more money than she's ever had outside king article quietly be near they came and asked me who wins the money and when i going to get it back how are you going to pay me and the quote on all. what i'd buy i just wanted to give them a good education so he could stand on his own feet. is her only hope if he gets into the british army he'll be able to pay off her debts for.

oh yes. i feel. bad if he wins and i'm going to and you know i feel really bad that my mother has to ask other people for money sometimes these rich people try to humiliate us. i hate it but we have to put up with this need to. discuss and see your stuff. just so. there's a lot of pressure. when i feel like quitting i remember everything she sacrificed and that motivates me to keep going. all of this hope and sacrifice is about to come to

a hit. finally it's the 1st day of the physical tests. in the crowd of anxious boys best friends and. there's definitely a lot of competition it's really tough because. you have to be very physically fit. for the next week these boys will run jump push and pull their bodies today absolutely minutes. looked up. in the end only a few. with more than $700.00 in the fight off

keeping an eye out for the road and. they're off to a great start the g.'s of training seem to be paying off. to race finishing near the top of. but the competition is fierce and there's no mansion for. the future at stake. giving it their all and they scoring well. i wanted to join the british army since i was 7 or 8 years old so i want to.

this is my biggest dream if i succeed i'll be so proud then you are even more wired to. but their trial is far from over all the boys have to pass a medical and it's the one test i can't prepare for. caught up says some of their friends have already filed it. normal don't let your guard. keep their medical check up in a normal hospital came out fine there was no problem but in the camp for some reason they failed. i'm a little worried there's a chance that i'll fail. that . for 2 days the boys will be poked and prodded to make sure they have no hidden illnesses or injuries now hold.

everything from their joints to the teeth will be examined any problems place it up . and know if we want to cause. it or walk off we do have an if i need. one suddenly cut a can come on a pull decide the tests picked up a hot man and now they heading to hospital for a thorough check up. doctors have to do an ultrasound to make sure they halts a functioning normally if they know the boys will be disqualified. so incredibly stressful these boys have quieted some of them for years to get to

the stage to join the caucus and this test could mean the end their dreams. it takes just a few minutes but the doctors giving anything away will have to wait for the results back at the camp. the uncertainty is excruciating. when i. get. more that if they fail they'll have to leave immediately. well you want. i'm really hoping that by and cut it could have passed. but at the gates it's clear the news isn't. all so sorry about.

how you doing. the text hisses showed an abnormality with his harsh prolonged intense exercise could cause sudden death. he can never be a soldier in the british army or do you plan to do. all. those known back to the village. where you had a chance to speak with or. cut a cusp into g.'s and his family thousands of dollars training to become a good. all of it has been fanaa think.

back in the camp kemal is the last one to find out his results after what happened to cut uk i'm worried he'll also be sent higher. than pas graduates who were you nervous. because you were sent to the hospital as well but that was so so sad it was and one of the phone call of yes all through. when you're sad to say kind of. i know how hard it is i can feel that pressure that things. look. good afternoon by us from outside the staff are finally able to give the remaining boys the good news unless some of the ears of the badly medical getting away oh there's something about a medically do not say the same some. thank

. the now come on and roll him up both safe and they can call their families. when you're. alone. or more your camera phone. i'm a metaphysical noticeably god do but the stress of the last few days has taken a toll on kemal he's lost his confidence which was about his her getting over the ass in the one i said i'm going on. you know. but it's. not even real he also gets through to his mom. a lot and out i mean. this is his last chance to get into the british army they won't let him try again because he's already failed twice. so i

was a bachelor and when i didn't get in i was devastated i just wanted to be alone as i was living away from my family i felt like in their eyes i was a failure i couldn't bear it i just couldn't move on. its mother says she tried to support him but the whole family was devastated. the monday they would have known that i was in when we last saw it makes me so sad. i can't stop my tears when i think about it. it's hard to see. your child works so hard and still fail. and we try to console him we told him he could try again because there was time. but inside we also felt hurt. anybody. she has used all the family savings to pay for roads training 'd and that's put

enormous pressure on him the minute he has worked really hard his hands were full of blisters and his back was totally bruised because he carried those heavy baskets he would try so hard. for 2 years family have watched him struggle with his disappointment they're now bracing themselves for whatever happens next again. we're hoping that he'll get in but i've told him that in case he doesn't. control yourself i'll come and get you and bring you home. they weiss is almost over the results are out in just a few days but the boys have one last chance to impress the recruiter so that's.

what we're here. tomorrow is the final physical test the infamous rice. each boy has to carry a doctor band big basket filled with 15 kilograms of sand and they have to do it while sprinting up the mountain. with. what was on it and then today they are making sure they baskets otitis securely. seems pretty happy with he's. he's having trouble. with goes all of them got into. a lot of trial and error his basket is ready but it feels like a bad omen. finally

it's race day and the boys a rearing to go at the crack of dawn. i'll expose a lot of people that are going to come out in the front row wearing a blue shorts dead body. in the middle. class. rebel. it's a steep 5.8 kilometers to the top a long winding road. through all this. would be an opponent of ranges towering above the views

a spectacular. view the only thing the boys i'm looking at is the competition. this is not just a taste of strength it's a taste of sheer determination. those. to their bodies feel like giving up if they mind those that don't push them to the finish line yeah part of that. you don't. want to go. by the time the boys k.c.'s can be nearly stabbed. by a book about what they're really talking well. look it is one of the 1st in his group to reach the top in just over 30 minutes that's 7 come up. is nowhere

in size. but all those eventually i suppose. he looks absolutely exhausted. you know were you happy where now when. i'm happy to come but not satisfied with the wife why does my dime in my face a fizzing time was a bit slow their mother used to think that's going to be a problem. yes of course it's going to be a problem because they're. gone critical move. ever since he scare at the hospital kemal has been struggling. but he could still be selected if his overall score is high. he won't have to wait long to find out. at the camp the moment of truth has arrived.

the medical. go. one by one each boy will be told if you. go about it. there's only $432.00 places and more than $700.00 hopefully it's what. kemal is one of the 1st to be cooled. off to years of hard work it will take just seconds to learn his fate and now. at the camp gates families are also white for the results. boys who fired a coming out with the. molly or the other. people trying to console him but he's not stopping anyone it's just awful kemal had tears

in his eyes coming out and he didn't want to talk to us and i don't really blame him. inside dru hit is still hopeful. but he's one of the lost boys. just left on the field. if he's 10. it looks like he's even. though you got. good you said lucile and that is that. we never assume because you're at the bottom of the kirov was it last did you think you were going to get a no you were not going to get me i was hoping to get in but i was missing ok to graduation thank you. for the boys who got in

it's a moment they will never forget the day they lives changed forever. so great. i think i missed a milestone is the greatest that's did you think you're going to make it some are on the verge of tia's others are in shock what they've achieved at such a young age is truly remarkable today was a fantastic day. the end of hope your journey through the recruiting process. and the start of a new journey into the british army. into the most famous regiment in the world the restoration record whatever it will go to these boys there is no turning back well done within days they'll be on a plane to the u.k. and on to a life boat to hit a only dreamed about us i wish you had the best on that next journey you are now the future of the brigade of darkness and that is a responsibility that you will carry for the rest of your days in service good luck
