Video Description

BECOMING AN ARMY MOUNTAIN GUIDE: Bitter Battle Training in high Terrain | Part 3 The Bundeswehr's mountain guides are considered one of the best mountain units in the world. Their training is one of the toughest in the army: high peaks, extreme cold and constant danger characterize their everyday life. They scale heights such as the Blue Ice Glacier in Bavaria and train to rescue people in difficult mountain conditions, often by helicopter. Only a few make it through the tests, where any mistake can be life-threatening. With the motto “In any season, in any terrain”, they show their dedication and determination - qualities that make the toughest soldiers army mountain guides. #mountainguide #bundeswehr #militarytechnology #military #documentary 00:10 Introduction: Enduring Harsh Mountain Training The challenges faced by Army Mountain Guide candidates in one of the toughest Bundeswehr training programs. 02:15 Helicopter Rescue Training in Rocky Terrain Soldiers practice air rescue operations, learning to safely evacuate injured comrades with winches under extreme conditions. 13:14 Combat Training with Live Ammunition at 2000m Altitude In the Austrian Alps, soldiers conduct live-fire exercises in high mountain terrain, focusing on tactical positioning and accuracy. 20:09 Night Combat and Tactical Challenges Night operations test the soldiers' ability to navigate and fight in complete darkness with limited equipment and visibility. 27:03 Next Phase: Exam Climbing in the Dolomites Candidates face intense climbing tests on the steep, exposed rock walls of the Sella Group in Italy. 40:10 Written and Oral Exams: Testing Theory and Knowledge Soldiers must pass difficult written and oral exams on mountain science, meteorology, and military tactics. 42:48 Leadership Under Pressure: Schumacher’s Struggles Instructor evaluations reveal Schumacher's ongoing difficulties with performance under stress during guided summit tours. 📺 Watch more documentaries https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-5sURDcN_Zl8hBqkvZ6uXFpP3t55HU9s 🔔 Subscribe to our full documentary channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBAeFXaLV1ZqKqc-Uf3pKaA?sub_confirmation=1
