72 Hours Inside State Trooper Academy | Ep.01 

earned my sub

thanks Orions! And thanks for your commitment as a Deputy 🙏

@@AustenAlexander Thank you sir. I appreciate your work and your service stay safe brother.

@@orionswhim1981 Arent there like... 0 requirements to become a deputy?

@@Laocoon283 Yup. All you need is a sweet stache, cowboy boots, a high school diploma and chewing tobacco.

Id have to agree with that. Also thank you I really appreciate this

Not really. Most athletes put vets to shame. After all, most athletes went to college for sports, the non athletes went military

@@calebclark6739 ?? Athletes can be found anywhere

@@calebclark6739 but military personnel drill and PT every day like there’s no tomorrow, athletes don’t drill or march, they just workout and perfect their sport…

@@matty9699 Evidently not the academy. Look at all the fat cops.

The BEST of the BEST!!! Give Sampson a hug and kiss from me! 💙❤️💙

Always the best, my beautiful love😘💪😘

Great content! Looking forward to episodes 2 and 3.

This is a great series. I can't wait for episode 2 and some other ideas you have for some new series.

Awesome video 💪🏿💪🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿

even better

Thanks Andreas!!

Great video sir. Attending the PSP academy was the best experience you want to only do once. Great career.

Hdshshhd

And the reason is(Addressed to those who don't know the requirements) because unlike with basic LE, State troopers are required to have a college degree or military experience or past law enforcement experience. Most recruits have the latter. It's easy to keep training top tier when you have guys who know what they're doing already, it's basically a refresher course for them. Basic Le is designed to turn your average civilian into a certified gun handler and peacekeeper. It's a whole different atmosphere. If I were to compare it and it's a rough comparison because they are nothing alike but if I did, I'd say Basic Le is like boot camp and State trooper academy is like going to Infantry AIT. You're getting a more hands on approach, A more refined training if you will. Just how I look at it anyways.

@@IAmMoto25 pretty generic assessment.

@@humbleservant9343 It was the best I could describe it tbh.

@@IAmMoto25 you dont have to have a college degree, LEO experience, or any military experience in all states at least in MO, you have to at least have a high school diploma or an equivalent 21 years of age and MO post certified

@@smr0m670 I'm mainly going off my state which does require a college degree, military experience or past law enforcement experience. I realize not every state is the same.

That’s really cool , I did not know that

@Frank Bonazza III so what if someone kicks your door down and starts attacking your family and stealing everything you own , what would you do? Are you able to defend your home loved ones or would you just submit and let them do as they please? Ppl like you who always say this kind Bulls**t never realize the dangers/evil of human beings , look what is happening in downtown Chicago at this moment, without law and order we will 100% have anarchy

@Frank Bonazza III you ever see those crosses along the highway? That’s why they’re “road pirates” - so your family doesn’t have to erect a roadside cross because you didn’t abide by the speed limit. It’s not about generating money, never has been.

@@jamesrichey5334 well if it wasn’t about money they wouldn’t have a job in the first place... 99.9 % of their funding comes from the tickets they give.

@@MV-nt4bq absolutely false. You have zero clue. You could google how police is funded and learn for yourself.

i didn't either!

Pretty much all state troopers do 🤷🏻‍♂️

Trooper academy is tough go! Legit

Every cop academy is like this. Nothing new

@@MV-nt4bq incorrect.

Best of luck

Well have a good time recruit!

How's it going, man!

@@tander101 Lol he ain't replying for months, they take your phone and may or may not give it back until graduation depending on your commander.

how you doing man?

Hey everyone! I just wanted to share some good news with you all. Let's just put it this way, the Ten Commandments are called the Moral Law. Ask yourself this. How many lies have you told? Have you ever stolen anything? Have you ever used God's name in vein? Have you ever hated someone or ever looked with lust? This is for you to judge yourself, but chances are that you are a lying, thieving, blasphemous, fornicating, adulterer at heart and you HAVE to face God on judgement day. Now ask yourself this. If God judges you on judgement day by these Commandments, will you be innocent or guilty? Of course you'll be guilty because we've all done these things. The truth is that none of us are good people and we NESD God's grace to make it to heaven. We judt simply cannot do it on our own. These Commandments arecalled the Moral Law. You and I broke the law, Jesus payed the fine. So now what we must do to be saved is to repent of our sins and trust alone in Jesus Christ! To repent doesn't mean to just say I'm sorry, but to turn from our sins and let Him truly be our Lord continually. He said that many will say to Him, Lord, Lord I have done all of these things for you. And He will say I never knew you. Depart from Me, ye who work iniquity! And those will be cast into outer darkness and raging hellfire and loneliness for all of eternity!!! Because we broke His law, He is very, very just to send us to hell. If someone had murdered 4 people and said to the judge, I've done nice things too and have tried to treat people nice but it was just one time, the judge would then say, okay but you're going to jail. And the judge is very just to do that. One last thing, if you were 10,000 feet in the air and you had to jump, you wouldn't jump out and flap your arms and try to save yourself. That's ridiculous! You would put on the parachute. It is the same with Jesus. You must trust Him as you trust the parachute. We are not good and we cannot save ourselves with our own goodness. We must trust alone in Him to save us. In just a moment of time you can pass from death to life. Jesus said, "Verily, verily I say unto you, you must be born again." That is how we enter heaven. Through the blood and grace of Jesus Christ!!!!✝️If you ask someone how to enter Heaven, they will most likely say, "Be a good person." Well the Bible says that none is good, no not one. We like to compare ourselves to guys like Hitler and say, "Hey, I'm a pretty good guy compared to him." But when we compare ourselves to God's standard, we realize that the Bible speaks truth when it says that we all sinned and fallen short of the Glory of God!!! When we see this ( our sin in its TRUE light), we see how much trouble we are in and we say, "Well then there's nothing I can do. I'm going to hell for sure then." It's true that there is nothing that WE can do, but there is something that has already been done for you! God sent His One and Only Son to die on a cross as a sacrifice for our sins! So to recieve that eternal sweet sweet forgiveness, all we must do is repent of our sins (meaning to continually turn from them and confess them) and trust alone in Christ as you trust a parachute. If I was to push you out of an airplane, you'd want the parachute for sure! Don't try to flap your arms and save yourself, trust in the parachute! His finished work on the Cross IS ENOUGH!! He is the only way to Heaven, He said it Himself!! These other religions teach that we must he good and do good things and then maybe if we've been good enough, we will enter Heaven. But if that is true then we are all doomed to eternal hell because none of us are good. That's why this makes sense. Look at the Ten Commandments, they are written on your heart right now! I promise that you have violated them. And you might still be doing that today. Therefore God is just to poor out His wrath on us because we deserve it!! But Christ died for us so that we can spend eternity in Heaven with Him! Turn to Him today, and He and only He will save your soul "Verily, verily I say unto you, you must be born again ( to go to Heaven)."✝️The true joy of Christ dwells in me!!! Does it in you? I know where I'm going when I die! Do you? I have an ETERNAL victory! Do you? I have more joy than ever because of what Christ has done. I have been down both roads. The road of the wicked and the road of Christ. Christ is way better and my cup runneth over with true joy and salvation. If you do not know the One true God and are not sure of your salvation, I promise He will never fail you. Turn to Him in repentance and faith. Repent means to confess and forsake your sins, never turning back to them. I tried changing on my own but I couldn't. It took the power of Christ on the inside of me to do it for me. He will give you a new and clean heart with new and clean desires and you shall be born again. A new creation in Christ Jesus!! Hallelujah!! Jesus said in order to enter the Kingdom of God, you must be born again! Thank you Lord Jesus!✝️

Combat Deployment or Naw?

@@codycasner3732doesn’t matter

$50k Would need to be able to buy something cool like a new vehicle with it.

100 bucks

I was a one of the counselors for Honor Camp for years....what year were you there?? I always got so attached to our kids over that week. ❤💙

@@harmonyann4675 omg I hardly ever use RU-vid so I just saw this. I was there in 2013! One of the best weeks of my life for sure. Thanks for volunteering your time to give so many of us such a memorable experience!

@@wilkerson427 awww so awesome, I was there!! I’ll tell the other counselors I found you on here. We love when we run into or hear from our “cadets”! I pray you are doing well! ♥️🤗♥️

awesome man! Keep the PT in check!

Good choice! 😉

Join the easiest one not the tough one cause after leaving army you need to survive in civil job market. Just saying and with a president like Biden I don't think it's even worth it. But yeah the benefits of those jobs are good

@@patilabhinav7941 there are plenty of Marine Corps jobs that translate well to the civilian job market - we’re not all grunts 😅

I'm a 0311 rn, I joined right after high school, and I'm tryna be a state trooper afterwords

thank you!

🙏

Um, I've been through Navy bootcamp- this is easier by a fair margin.

New Jersey state police is much harder than Pennsylvania’s state police academy

No one cares dude. Army Boot Camp was rough to some and easier to others. No one cares marines get yelled at more. There’s a reason there is such a low retention rate anyways.

thanks for watching! If you ever pull me over this means I get a free pass 😁

@@AustenAlexander lol 100% brother

I think Njsp academy is harder. What do you think?

@@greatestnitemare6626 How many times are you gonna mention the NJSP Academy? you obviously never attended there or you wouldn't be so threatened by another academy.

@@greatestnitemare6626 if you’re a fatass it’s obviously going to be hard. If you’re in shape you should have no issues pretty straight forward

I know Battle Bunker! We’re producing out there soon I promise

I will help you do some weed eating Battle bunker!! . 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻.

oh yes that was my second time on a horse. You're probably talking about how I had the reigns so high?

I'm an equestrian too, also made me cringe is how he spelled Reins 🤣 no hate to u austen it's just funny 😄

@@tracymcquary7682 this is not my level of expertise! Haha

The cadets care for the horses during their entire training period however they are given basic equestrian instruction near the end of their training. It’s done For tradition bc the PSP was founded on horseback. Troopers with riding skills can become part of the Tactical Mounted Unit.

I’ve known a few pa troopers and they don’t even talk about the academy let alone something like this so I have to agree with you

Starting to think their recruting numbers have been dwindling. So they are marketing more

At times like this they’re underemployed with not to much manpower so they need people to join and what better way to advertise other than a youtuber? Pretty good idea to me

Thanks big Ken 🙏

NJSPs academy is much harder

Mississippi Highway Patrol is the hardest

Lol, no. MCRD at PI pre 911 makes this a walk in the park for me.

​@@lnfinitry LOL why not try to watch videos of Philippine National Police's training and Im sure youll be on the edge of your seat or feel like quitting just by watching it...your police training in the US is just like going to the fitness gym

​@@greatestnitemare6626 ​​@iNFinitry LOL why not try to watch videos of Philippine National Police's training and Im sure youll be on the edge of your seat or feel like quitting just by watching it...your police training in the US is just like going to the fitness gym

Nice congrats!! Best of luck with everything! Take care

Except Kamala Harris and Joe Biden

Get that crap out of here

Thank you 🙏

Hey brother, I don’t know if you’ll see this but I’m 20 getting ready to head into academy when I’m 21, no military experience I just always wanted to be a trooper. Been through hell week and stuff with sports through highschool but I understand there is a big difference. Could you give me just some PT things I need to drill? Wanna train above requirements but from what I understand there’s no certain way to be prepared. Any input would be appreciated been awhile tho lol.

@@chaserobert474pushups, pushups, and more pushups. Instructors love making a set of 10-20 pushups take 5-10 minutes. They will make you go down and hold that position while they yell at the class, sometimes for minutes at a time, and then they will make you go right back to doing the pushups with no break or rest. If you fail to hold it, and you will, alot, you have to immediately get right back into push up position. Don’t let them catch you laying there or they will add on more pushups. When they tell you to get back up, get up immediately!!! Or they will tell you to get right back down and make you do it all over again. Burpees are a favorite form of punishment as well. Its okay to slow down or even fail, so long as you immediately get back to doing the exercise, whatever it is. They want to see effort and progress above all.

I wonder how the academy was like in the 90s I’ve heard both troopers an police say the academy back in the day was much tougher an the instructors were just plain assholes

In PA the state police respond to calls, i live in a township that doesnt have a police department so the state police will show up

@@djricecakes6035 what town it that? Never heard of that before

@@MV-nt4bq what town? Every borough, township, and city in PA without a police department. Its weird in PA, sherriffs are treated differently too. Sherriffs and deputies dont respond to calls or pull people over.

@@djricecakes6035 I mean whatever county you’re in they’re should at least be a county cop if there isn’t a cop for the specific town.

@@MV-nt4bq state police are that entity in PA. They have stations in every county. In Florida the state police only patroled the highways and the deputies responded to calls. That isnt the case in PA.

Exactly!! I always noticed trooper always seem pissed tf off 😂😂😂😂

they can earn weekends but it's hard when they first get there. Usually I think around week 4-5 they start earning weekends off to go home

@@AustenAlexander awesome man thank you for the info.

Oh yes. I concur

He’s got a lot of connections, some of the guys running the academy are probably former military and/or watch his channel

Well they’re underemployed so they’re desperate to get people to join

thank you!!

@@AustenAlexander you’re welcome….
