Climbing with #1 Arctic Elite force - Exclusive Access 

The thing I like most about these Norwegian soldiers is their humility. They're supremely fit and adapted to the job, but when they see someone who has more advanced skills in a certain area, they don't pout, they're in awe and looking to learn. A great combination of physical fitness and good personality.

Huge respect. The way he watches magnus do his route with no legs, there is not a bit of envy. Just the determination to learn to do the same in a few weeks

Even is such a likable dude. I'd happily tune in for more of you two together.

The absolute flex of not using your legs lmaoo

I like how you’re boosting their morale by campusing that 6A+ 😂

I saw Even climbing at my local center the other day. Cruising some blue boulder problems (6a-6b). Seems to me you have inspired for more Magnus😄🙏🏻

They are really good considering they don't have to climb that hard in the military and are also quite heavy/ muscular from the training lugging those packs around!

Magnus looks like a ghost in the lights and Evan's legs are invisible. Quite the combo

I've became addicted to these military themed videos! Thank you Magnus and guys from squadron for making this interesting content!

14:47 That editing was definitely just revenge for the last two videos wasn't it? ;)

I would just like to say thank you. I’m studying neuromuscular therapy and when you climb without a shirt I can see EVERYTHING. Getting to see all the extrinsic load distribute from your shoulders throughout your back is just freaking insane. Thanks for making it easier to study may dude

Hey Magnus, after being in a really rough place for the last few years, I turned to your videos and you inspired me to take up climbing! halfway through my introductory course and i'm loving it, even though the heights still give me sweaty palms & shaky legs. touching the top hold on a climb has given me more confidence then ever! Hope to send a route with you someday! thanks for introducing me to this amazing community/sport! (great video as always by the way, great fun to see the tables turned)

Evan: *Goes on 35-hour trek that destroys Magnus* My legs are a bit sore. The internet: Wow, fat. …

Just wanted to put my little piece. Thank you Magnus for constantly providing us with such quality, for the lack of a better word, outstanding content. You have inspired me to become a better self, just like many others watching you. I wish you very best and to many people out there too. Living human beings are the only real inspiration you'll ever need.

I hope this dude continues doing videos with you. Absolute beast of a human

Dude sweet. After watching you fumble around in fatigues for what seems like forever, we finally get to see the special forces lads on the wall! I am genuinely excited to watch this video. Thanks MM!

One of the major takeaways from these types of videos for me is the difference in rope management between a professional and amateur climber.

These guys are so insanely humble even being flexed on. True self confidence by everyone. Huge !

This was a great collab. Hope to see more of those guys in the future. Maybe bring Even to a multipitch climb haha

I think it would be really cool to see Jorgen and Even try another elite special forces fitness test with you Magnus. Just to see how those beast handle another spec ops physical test.

Magnus we need these guys on more often they are absolutely brilliant.

Mac from it's always sunny is killing it here

I just met your channel from the 2 Elite force videos. So good to see you brough this machine covered as a man to more of your videos. Greetings from Brazil. U guys are beasts and inspire a lot of people, I'm sure of that

The meatball gets his. Absolutely outstanding collaboration. It's a joy to watch your vids, thanks for putting them on here. The ones with the military have really been fun to watch. It really shows both your and the military's dedication to their crafts. Very fun stuff.

Mad respect for all of you. Video quality is on point and your performance Magnus, as well as Evans performance, is excellent. Really good collaboration with the NOR LRRP SQN!

It's good to see Magnus able to feel strong again 😄

Hell yah, more Even videos. Dude's a beast!

It goes without saying that we love Magnus. Now, we affirm that we love Even too. Shoutout Jorgen as well. Is it just me or are Norwegian military personnel damn likable?

Even is really good. Managing to climb when he doesn't have legs is impressive.

It is good to see Evan. It makes me feel safe. He is a model soldier with a good temper. A soldier should never get lean like Magnus! The "lean mean fighting machine" shown in American movies don't stand a fighting chance against calm, sober and packing enough meat to get around.

Magnus your videos are starting to bring me to tears, they’re just so perfect, so entertaining, just all around so good😅

Jävlar va cudos till er norrbaggar. Riktigt galet att berget, träningen och detta var dagar efter varandra. Mad respects from Sweden 🇸🇪 🙏 🍻❤

The perfect man doesn't exi-..... good lord Even is impressive.

You deserved the flex after being humiliated for days!

Magnus = no legs = Sick! Respect! Satisfying to watch.

You have always had good quality videos Magnus, but you have really steppet up lately. Good content, and impressive and proffesional editing. Keep up the good work ✌️

This series was awesome. Thanks for giving it everything. Good to see the other guy do that as well. Very impressive athletics and a incredible display of will power. Much respect.

the music choice in these videos is great. super relaxing and just all around really fitting!

Evan's great. keep bringing him back plz

Magnus climbing that with only hands is just epic! Super human strength 🤯

I love this in comparison to the previous video as it shows the difference in skillset training. previously Even was just a beast with the endurance/power feats. But the years of climbing, and build Magnus has is just shown off. One can argue the holds are easy (full grip) but it's that upper body able to pull itself up with confidence. I question if it even mattered Magnus was "low energy", so long as his hands and arms weren't burnt out, if he just ran a marathon and he had a bed food and whatever he desired up at the top he'd climb it.

Really loving all your content, Thanks for the insight into your world. Salute from Essex.

Magnus, you are a really good ambassador for climbing. I actually had a climbing wall at high-school but never tried, but now at 29 years of age you have inspired me to try get into climbing. Probably going to start indoors but we have loads of lovely mountains here in South Africa so who knows! Great content!

Just like to say how great the music choices were in this video.

Magnus, you are honestly my favorite youtuber and I’m glad you exist

I’ve really enjoyed this series. Very inspirational. Well done, Magnus!

Love this mini-series, also they tried to break him over 2 days and he still flys up the wall!

Magnus Strength is the ability to stop and lock his muscles in any position with very high precision. It's really nice to look at.

You are all beasts. I started watching your videos and decided this is the way im gonna get rid of my fear of heights and was watching to learn technics now i cant stop watching your videos now.

I love it how you show them who the real boss is in climbing :D

I have never seen you climbing with anyone who is better than you. I would like to see that!

Video quality on your recent vids looks amazing. Even is a beast!

It's great this Elite Force invite top athletes to compete and exchange ideas, as that ensures continous development. I bet they also have a lot of respect for Magnus, who always gives his absolute best.

Magnus finally got the army in his element. The no legs climb showed how dominate he is at climbing.

Magnus, I rly rly appreciate these videos. Your videos (and your physique ;) ), especially the military ones, have motivated me to get more serious with my fitness and seriously think about trying out for a special military unit. Thank you!! Awesome videos!

Wow, Magnus. They really took it outta you! You do seem like you are having a good time though. This series has been really great. 👍

Just started watching your videos. You have definitely inspired me to start climbing again. All your videos are amazing man. Keep it up.

Nobody: Magnus: "THE CAMERAS ARE ON!"

Haha, great to see someone is able to shine against those machines! I have a feeling that Evan will soon be back on RU-vid :)

daamn, Magnus is a different animal, climbing without using legs, truly amazing strenght for his size.

Me : I'm so happy with my climbing session, finally got that 6B! *opens youtube* Magnus : Okay, let's do 6A+ arms only

Congrats on unlocking military exhaustion. I admire how you can compete and still keep it friendly just started watching your vids today and still am because their great as well as entertaining and fun to watch.

"I could do it with out using my legs..." Yeeeeea, you can't feel your legs yet do you?

It is amazing to see climbers without legs able to do this, and for Magnus to join in... just wow; I would praise the day I could climb as easily as these upper body monsters

I love the bouldering videos but this whole bunch of videos with the military have been great! Are we expecting more videos with Even?

Quality of content is sooo good. That’s all

4:44 that is literally me whenever i watch a new video from magnus

Your paleness on the grey wall 😂 looked like shorts and a chalk bag magically floating up the wall. Jk, much love, this has been a great series of videos.

I've watched all of these videos and saw Magnus pushing it to the limit to keep up, and realizing these guys are absolute beasts. But here, oh boy, Magnus is home here :p

You earnt a sub for doing that route with no feet, actually found myself laughing at how cool that was 👍😂

Always happy when you drop a new vid, it's a good excuse not to study

Loving the music added over climbing segments in recent videos 👍🏻

Yeah, this is just top class. Love it. Bra jobba, Magnus, Even og Jørgen :) Best regards from Oslo.

Who said Even is fat?! I mean, how many people have the lean body of a climber like Magnus?... Even is an army guy, he needs to be like a draft horse that works all day. You don't say draft horses are fat. And he climbed here incredibly well! I am impressed with the Norwegian army!

12:22 the way you smear up and mantle on top of that hold looks like absolute magic to me, I cannot even understand the amount of strength or technique that goes into that.

Magnus will very soon reach 1 million subs🔥 good job!

Magnus "I'm completely drained" proceeds to monkey up a 6a+ without feet.

Gym: This is our hardest route. Magnus: Half of these quickdraws are completely unnecessary 😂

Compliments as always on another excellent visit to some place I’ll never be. New appreciation for the skills and strength for rock climbing. Then the production of your show are excellent in their own right the background music perfect lighting everything Tip Top Thanks again I’m a fan

to see magnus shredding mesmerizes me big time. better than any asmr

What a guy with the the props to Jimmy Chin and the boys at the end

how nice of magnus to campus that wall, seeing as the soldiers are just floating torsos

No way of knowing what your training partner/opponent will be doing after he musters out of the special forces unit there. But I hope it will allow for some more collaboration videos. It's not been often that we see someone else push Magnus' fitness.

Love watching these videos, while eating chips and candy, telling myself: "Yeah, I could totally do that".

Perfect editing with the music and the close moments👌🔥

Magnus climbing the rope in a sequence of one arm pull ups 😂

Dont care about climbing, dont care about the army but some reason i watched this entire series. Good shit I really enjoyed. No idea who Magus is assuming he's a Pro climber?

I don't know if that "relaxing" music was intended at 14:50 while we waited for Evan to complete his 8 second climb .... if it was ...that was subtlety brilliant. And this video should be called REDEMPTION - Operation Meatball

These men have so much power and versatility in athletics

First time i see Magnus just really exhausted and these military Beasts are just like, Yeah i feel it a little in my thighs. But that's the military there's no level of exhaustion just alive or dead, you finish the mission, sleep afterwards.

vids looking good as always!

I think that the difference between an elite force soldier and a sport professional can be summed up in two things : 1. Resilience (mental capacity to handle high pressure challenges without breaking down) 2. Versatility (capacity to maintain high level performances in a variety of different physical tests as opposed to being very good in one test but bad in the others) As he said, he is not the best in all of those tests, but he remains very competitive which is what makes all the difference. These guys are pure machine! Magnus is a very impressive athlete and I thought that he would be fit to be in a special force. Although he had great performances and he is obviously disproportionately more skillful in a specific exercice (I'm sure you guessed which one!), we can see a difference in ability between him and the other guy (forgot his name) when you do an average across all challenges.

"Tiny knobs and stuff? Not my cup of tea" Magnus Midtbo, 2021

These are just such cool and fun videos, Cheers Mate!

That hands-only dangle climb 3:51 .. amazing!!

These guys are just "card carrying studs." I'm very impressed with the level of the Army guys expertise. Great videos Magnus.

Me: binge watching videos of inspiring and disciplined people doing military drills Also me: procrastinating things I should be doing now👁👄👁

Hello from Las Vegas! Love your videos - especially the ones with the military. Also, your English is better than many Americans! Impressive!

Again, my wife humbly requests more shirtless Even. I'm seeing a pattern here. Should I be worried?

Magnus, You should try doing one arm campusing on the easiest boulder you can find. I'm curious if it's possible
