    The fact that Even hiked in the mountains for 35 hours with a 35kg pack and looked fresh as a daisy afterwards, compared to how destroyed he was after the treadmill test just shows how hard that test it.
  • @MrGrus11
    Don't think i've ever seen someone completely max out like Evan did, it's insane how inspiring that is.
  • @luckyspurs
    I don't think people realise how steep a 12% incline is. Well done Even.
  • @huskytail
    I noticed how efficient Evan's movement on the treadmill is. Very few excessive movements. Excellent stuff. Magnus was moving much more around his axis in all directions, including the arms
  • @Tim_flips
    Wow.... Evan is a freaking monster. That endurance test is inhuman. You crushed it too Magnus, after everything you did the day before. Thank you for making this video.
  • @tylerdurden3347
    That treadmill walk/run was unbelievable. As someone who was in the US Army, that is NOT easy in any way, shape or form. Doubletime march with ruck and weapon? NO ONE looks forward to that... AND you start going steeper and steeper hills every 5 minutes? Flat out beast mode to last 30 minutes.
  • I tried something similar to that last exercise in my local gym. I'm not going to embarrass myself with disclosing the results but fair play to Magnus for his efforts, especially after the previous gruelling stuff. That soldier Even on the other hand is something else entirely, that last 60 seconds is a lesson in mental strength.
  • @BenLMitchell
    Evan, if you ever did start a YouTube channel regarding fitness or how to define what the human body is capable of, I'd watch it. What a machine
  • @bruce2953
    21:20 Even was at 100% here, but the fact he managed to find it in him to regain form and pushed for another minute is what separates him from the normal people. Mad respect for these people, their mental resilience is out of this world
  • @bgosl
    How Even looked after he finished compared to how Magnus looked, is what ser these guys apart. There was not an ounce left in him after about 27 minutes, and then he powered through for 3 more. That last minute was an absolute inspiration, and 100% will power (plus the guys around him backing him up, willing him on). Mad respect.
  • the thing that I love about you in your videos, you are ALWAYS encouraging others. even if it is a competition !
  • @zachdaikawa4872
    I was so into watching Even do the incline, I was cheering for him to complete it as well, it’s just something about seeing a person try that hard that makes you want them to succeed even more. I know this is an older video but congrats Even that was outstanding.
  • I‘m from switzerland and I hike in the alps a lot, 7km/h at 12% incline is absolute madness
  • @Nogarda_
    I had to restrain myself from shouting at the screen with encouragement XD Was kinda concerned Evan was having a heart atack at one point but I figure since his abs have abs i guessed he was gonna be fine.
  • Getting the bag dialed in has to be pretty critical. You can see when Magus was running his right strap had a lot of slack and the bag was knocking his shoulder with the worst possible timing, basically having to fight to maintain stability 50ms before he's trying to connect his right foot to the ground. That had to suck away a lot of energy. But when Evan was running everything was tight and it moved with him instead of against him.
  • Being a US Marine we pride ourselves on our physical fitness and ability to push ourselves to the limit. The LRRP deserves recognition for the standard they make all uphold. Even is an absolute Beast to push through to 30 min especially when you can see at 29 min he is past 100% but regains his composure to complete the objective. I would gladly fight alongside the LRRP or any Norwegian soldiers.
  • @ferryv6740
    This man retires and casually smashing all these records. What a legend
  • You get extra strength from the viewers... that explains why I always feel a bit tired after watching Magnus's videos
  • @Hydro347
    Was so invested in that run. Evan you certified BEAST. Really shows how when you think you have nothing left in the tank others can spur you on and motivate you
  • Total respect. I'm 57 and had to do a heart stress test with only body weight with increasing incline and speed. Carrying 25kg and a weapon to put you off balance. Huge effort guys. Respect from Australia.
