영국특수부대 SAS (SAS : Are You Tough Enough?) [6부작]

 

다큐소개 : MAN VS WILD의 주인공인 베어 그릴스 형님께서 몸 담으셨던 영국 특수부대 SAS를 보여주는 프로그램으로 일반인들을 상대로 극한의 한계까지 훈련시킨 리얼리티 다큐멘터리입니다. 

 

SAS: Are You Tough Enough was a British documentary series exposing volunteer members of the public to the experience of the SAS selection process presented by Dermot O'Leary. On average only 10 out of the 125 soldiers taking the real SAS selection procedure pass.[1] In contrast to the real SAS, this programme also featured female candidates. As with real selection, initially the candidates were pushed to the limits to reduce the numbers, with survivors in the latter stages, trained and assessed in a variety of military training exercises.

The contestants participated in exercises experienced in the real selection process, although over a shorter time frame, with the winner only getting a hand-shake from the ex-SAS SSgt Eddie Stone. For realism, exercises were controlled by ex-members of the SAS, notably Staff Sergeant Eddie Stone, with additional comments about what would happen in the real process from other ex-SAS members.

There were three series: the original in the Scottish Highlands, the SAS Jungle in Borneo, and SAS Desert in Namibia.
