NARRATOR: Selection for the SAS
is a test like no other.

We are giving these celebrities
a taste of our experience.

It's going to be
the most uncomfortable,

dangerous,

overwhelming experience
of their lives.

They'll be thinking,

"Why the (BLEEP) am I doing this?"

(PEOPLE SHOUTING)
STAFF: Shut the (BLEEP) up and move!

A new group of celebrity recruits...

ANT: It's time to cash in
all those (BLEEP).

..have volunteered to leave
their comfortable lives behind.

Bit (BLEEP) smelly.

(TRAIN HORN)
Get on that train!

I know this course will
take me out of my comfort zone.

Go!

It also excites me,
to see for myself, where I'll go.

They'll be trained
to survive the impossible.

STAFF: Arms out!
(ABBEY CRIES OUT)

STAFF: (BLEEP) Break! Break!
Break! Break!

You're (BLEEP),

and you're the cause of it!

Chief instructor, Ant Middleton
and his team of directing staff

will make no exceptions.

Fight!

STAFF: Finish it off!

Tonight...

RECRUIT: Oh, my god.

Oh, sheesh.

..high-rise panic...

JAY: Take a look down.
I don't want to.

Go!

(ABBEY CRIES OUT)

..and the harsh business
of camp life.

Has anyone not pooed...

..since we've been here?

I haven't pooed.

Stage fright.

I really struggled.

I felt really lost
after I finished swimming.

Plus, Steph's emotional admission.

It'd be nice to have somebody
to go through the harder times with.

And later...

You are now holding a live grenade.

You can't afford
to (BLEEP) this up.

Let's go!

..intense ammunition training,
where one mistake...

(GUNSHOTS)
(SHOUTING)

..could prove fatal.

(EXCLAIMING) (BLEEP)! Get down!

(EXPLOSION)

DAN: We need the ambulance here
with meds.

(MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)

ZIMA: Lights on, everyone.

(RECRUIT YAWNS)

PETER: Wow.

That's the chilliest morning, ah?

TIM: It was really windy last night.

It's day three
on the brutal SAS selection course.

Of the 14 celebrity recruits
to start...

..for now, ten remain.

MATTHEW: Not gonna lie,

this has been
the hardest thing I've ever done.

ZIMA: This?

I was thinking
the blanket that you had...

That's why I walked over,
I was gonna go,

"I'll grab a corner for you."
Not gonna lie,

how I'm feeling right now...

Thank you,

because you are also correct.

MAHALIA: Do you want me to help you?
No.

(LAUGHS)

CRAIG M: How'd you sleep, Tim?

Man, I actually slept OK.

Did ya?
Yeah.

The lights just went on, eh?
RECRUIT: Yeah.

I'm a former rugby league legend,

three-time premiership player,

and former
three-time boxing world champion.

I'm usually in control in my life.

Giving up that control
was going to be tough.

It takes me a while to get to sleep,
you know what I mean?

So, when I'm asleep,
I don't want to be interrupted.

When I'm exhausted...

..hadn't had much sleep,
I get cranky.

I'm real cranky.

I normally have a nap
in the afternoon

when I'm back home.

Have a little siesta.

If someone wakes me up,
I'm cracking up.

You know what I mean? So...

Oh, man, these DS's,
they might be in trouble.

STEPHANIE:
Get the brekky kit out, or...

RECRUIT: Yeah, get that ready.

What do we reckon?
Porridge? Couple of eggs?

RECRUIT: Yeah.
I reckon porridge and eggs.

ABBEY: Just the use?

STEPHANIE:
That porridge with the cinnamon...

RECRUIT: Oh, little bit of honey.
..and the honey.

Wouldn't that be nice?

Honey wouldn't go astray.

Needing fuel for the day ahead,

duty recruit, Zima
dishes out the meagre rations.

Is that good?

One more.
ZIMA: Yeah.

Thank you.
No problem.

Plenty of eggs left
if anyone wants any.

Hunger-wise, I can deal with a bit

because being a boxer,
I really had to fast a lot,

and didn't eat much.

But I'm a sugar freak.
I love sugar.

Like chocolate, fizzy drinks...

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

..so it's going to be
a challenge, man.

Wow, got cold porridge.

I know,
they're trying to break our spirit.

Mm.

It's working.
(LAUGHS)

I'm 47, so I love my own space.

(WHISPERING)
Hey, Anthony?

Choc.

I burnt my socks.

Do you have a pair of socks?

Yeah, but they're wet.

That's OK. I'll dry them.

Sure?
Yeah.

Thank you.

But as the cold morning air
hangs in the camp...

ABBEY: How you feeling?

ANTHONY: I might VW today.

..number five is done with camp life.

Why?

Is there anything we can do

to help you stay?

I don't know.

(ANTHONY SIGHS)

I don't know.

We don't want you to go.

I know, but...
No.

If you need to talk about anything,
just let me know.

Yeah, thanks.

We need Choc around.

(ANTHONY LAUGHS)

Yeah, you are.

(ANTHONY LAUGHS)

(ANTHONY GROANS PLAYFULLY)
I won't fake it, I'll do it.

I haven't got nothing to prove
to anybody or anything.

I'm just trying to show the people
the real me,

the real Anthony Mundine.

(MIDDLE EASTERN MUSIC)

ANT: Number five!

After sharing his news,

number five has requested
to see Chief Instructor, Ant.

How are you feeling this morning,
Number Five?

Yeah, I'm alright.
You're good?

You're going to get through today.

I just...

(MUMBLES)

My head's not in it.
I know, but listen,

you need to get your head
in the game.

Yeah.

When we finish
doing what we do in life,

what do we do when we... you know?
We pass on inspiration.

Our stories.
We pass on our (BLEEP) knowledge.

That's the responsibility you have.

Show the children out there.

(BLEEP) show your (BLEEP) people
who look at you and think,

"(BLEEP), I want to be him.

"That's my role model right there.

"And if he can do it, so can I."

The responsibility
for being a (BLEEP) elite athlete,

for being in the limelight,

that comes with a cost.

And you've always got

to (BLEEP) pay the man.

Yes, Staff.

People are looking for inspiration.

Find that (BLEEP) fire
in your belly.

I want to see
that fire in your belly.

Yes, Staff.
Understand?

Yes, Staff.
Now, get your head in the game.

RECRUIT: He'll be gone today.

ABBEY: Yeah, not if we might be able
to talk him out of it.

(EXHALES)

ZIMA: How you going, legend?

I might need them socks.
(LAUGHS)

Yeah, yeah, yeah!

That's it, Choco.

(PRAYER CALL)

En route to another punishing day
on selection,

the recruits are about to face a task

that requires flawless accuracy
in a high-stress environment.

As a special forces operator,

you must condition the mind
to ignore the distractions...

..so you can fully focus 100%
on what needs to be done.

That's why we are the most
devastating,

versatile fighting force
in the world.

Look.

We're abseiling down that thing.

(BLEEP).

Heights scare the shit out of me.

The attention to detail,

the precision,

the laser focus that we have.

JAY:
Get out of the (BLEEP) vehicles.

come on, let's go.

ANT:
Because you get something wrong...

Start switching on.

..by a couple of millimetres,
a couple of centimetres...

JAY:
Two ranks along that wall facing me.

..that could be the difference
between life and death.

Right, listen in.

You can all see
what you're about to do.

Can all see that (BLEEP) big rope
hanging out the window.

Heights and me do not go together.

I am petrified.

It is one of my biggest fears.

High assault abseil.

All the DS have operated

and assaulted
using high-rope access.

It's used to get troops
or an assault team,

within a building,

to carry out
a specific mission or task.

This is key tier one

special forces operations.

Armed

and placed
in an extreme combat situation...

..the recruits must climb...

..an exhausting 17 storeys...

..to the top of the imposing tower.

STAFF: Go!

Then, commit to a frightening
80m rappel at speed...

..penetrating the window below...

ABBEY: He did that so quick.

..before engaging in battle
to rescue a hostage.

(LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO CAPTIONER)

To pass,

they must use
the rules of engagement...

..firing only on the gunman
with the raised weapon.

(GUNSHOTS)

What's (BLEEP) critical
for you today

is precision.

It's important

that you retain that information
in your brain.

And you do not lose sight
of what you are told to do.

It doesn't matter
how stressful that situation is.

We don't give a (BLEEP)
if you're scared of heights.

You need to be focused,
need to be driven.

Everyone happy
with what's required of you today?

ALL: Yes, Staff.
Go.

Move.

Get your heads in the game.

Hurry up.

To exercise precision
in a moment of fear,

is conditioning of the mind.

STAZ:
How are you feeling, Number Four?

Heights isn't really my thing.

It's not my thing either.
Mhm.

You've gotta to take control it.
Yeah.

Comes from experience.

It comes from...

..harnessing that fear.

I don't like heights either.

Height's the worst, bro.

Especially backwards.
Yeah.

And ignoring the chaos around you,

so you can focus 100%
on the mission.

Sweaty palms even thinking about it.

CRAIG C: Once you get started,
it will be over pretty quickly.

ABBEY: Hopefully.

It's no effort.

Gravity does all the work for you.

OK.
ANT: Number Four, let's go.

Battling a crippling fear of heights

is number four,
AFL field commentator, Abbey Holmes.

I'm a sports broadcaster,
predominantly, in the world of AFL.

I was also the first woman
in Australia

to kick 100 goals

in an established
Aussie Rules football season.

ANT: All the way to the top
till you see another DS.

But you'll still
come across those dinosaurs

that don't believe
that women belong in football.

The main motivation
to try and complete SAS

is trying to prove
so many people wrong

in the past, that have told me

that I'll never achieve that

or I'm not capable of doing this.

And yeah,
I've copped that a hell of a lot.

STAFF: Alright, let's go.
Get to the top.

Hurry up.

I know that physically,
I can get things done.

That's not what worries me.

It's going to be
a massive mental game for me.

Quickly, fast as you can to the top.

I freeze when it comes to heights.

Keep going, Four!

Get up here as fast as you can.

It's more the feeling of falling.

I feel like I could stand on a ledge
and look over, and feel OK

because I know that I'm safe.

Number Four, stand there.

But the second that I know
that I'm gonna fall,

and that feeling...

..that's when I literally crumble.

Step onto the step.

(ABBEY BREATHES SHAKILY)

This right hand is your break hand.
Yep.

It's going to go here.

Don't let go of that rope.

Start to go back.

Stop, stop, stop.

OK.

Take a look down.
I don't want to.

Number Four,

I'm going to give
the stand by and go.

When I say go,

descend down that rope
as fast as possible.

Stand by.

Go!

(ABBEY CRIES OUT)

OK.

(ABBEY GASPS FOR AIR)

Calm yourself down!

Keep (BLEEP) moving, Number Four.

Hurry up.

You're like a sitting duck.

Keep going!

Keep descending.

Faster!

Get (BLEEP) in that window!

ANT: Keep moving!

STAFF: Go, go, go, straight in.

JAY: Number Four,
get a (BLEEP) move on.

STAFF: Go, go.

Come on, get in.
STAFF: Hurry up!

ANT: Get in that window.

OLLIE: Come on,
stop (BLEEP) dangling around.

Go, go, go.
(BLEEP).

Calm down, calm down.

(BLEEP) breathe.

Breathe, breathe.
Yes, Staff.

When they make entrance
to that window...

..this is the main part of the task.

People are (BLEEP)
relying on you, alright?

It's the action you've taken
that counts.

Split second decisions
with precision,

do you understand me?

Retaining that key information,

and not letting panic
and distraction

of coming down that 50m wire
take over.

Move!

Let's go, let's go,
let's go, let's go, let's go.

In! In!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

(SOUND OF HEARTBEAT)

What are you gonna do?

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING CONTINUES)

Take out, shoot! Take out, shoot!

Stop! Stop.

Stop.

What the (BLEEP) did you just do?

Tell me
who you've just (BLEEP) shot?

Everyone in the (BLEEP) room.

Everyone in the room's (BLEEP) dead.

So are you going to make
a (BLEEP) phone call

to his mum and dad...

..and say, "I'm sorry he's dead,

"it's 'cause I'm a (BLEEP) idiot,
I was having a bad day?"

You (BLEEP) Johnny Rambo'ed it,
didn't you?

You know why that happened?

'Cause I was rattled.
Yeah.

'Cause you came down there,
you came down that room,

and you (BLEEP) all over the place.
Yes.

Everything that's going on,

when we go into room entries
like this,

you can't afford to make mistakes.

I feel like one of my big,
I guess, downfalls

is that I do put a hell of a lot
of pressure on myself.

That's a fail.

Go down to the chief instructor.

I'm somebody
who always chases perfection,

which, 99.999% of the time,
you are never going to achieve,

but I always get hung up
on that 0.01%.

And it's probably
one of my biggest negatives.

JAY: Come on, Number Two.

Next atop the monumental tower,
number two, actress, Zima Anderson.

Staff.

I want to show people

that little gals
can do so much more

than we ever expected ourselves.

You OK with heights?
Yes, Staff.

That's good.
Yeah.

It's a good start.
You ever abseiled before?

No, Staff.

I want to also prove to myself
that I can control my mind.

Start going backwards.

I guess I just have very high
expectations of myself basically.

When I say go,

you are to descend
as fast as you can to that window.

Ready?

Stand by.

Go!

Get a (BLEEP) move on, Number Two!

Stop (BLEEP) around on that leg.

Like a (BLEEP) duck.

ANT: Number Two, let's move!

Get moving!

Keep going!

Faster, Number Two.

Let's go!

Get that hand out.

Let's go.

Get into the (BLEEP) window!

Next task now.

Fast, dynamic, aggression.

Go!

Through that door, go!

Move!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

(SOUND OF HEARTBEAT)

What are you gonna do?

(GUNSHOTS)

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

Stop! Stop!

Back here.

Talk me through
what happened in here.

I saw that there was a hostage,

and I saw that that guy had a gun,
but he went like this,

so I...
So, did he aim at you or not?

No, he did not aim at me,
so he was not a threat.

Then, this enemy here
came straight through the door,

had his gun pointed straight at me,

so I chose to shoot.

Right.

Does he look shot to you?

No.
He doesn't, does he?

You're (BLEEP) dead.

RIP on your gravestone.

"Here lies a dickhead..."
Yes, Staff.

..because you got in here so erratic
from the (BLEEP) abseil,

coming down here
like some (BLEEP) erratic maniac.

That was a bag of shit.

You've come in here and gone,
"Oh, (BLEEP) hell!"

And just point your weapon
in a direction,

and just pulled the trigger.
Yes, Staff.

So essentially you're dead,
you failed the task.

(BLEEP) off.
Yes, Staff.

JAY: Let's go, Number ten.

As fast as you can, hurry up.

Treading the 260 steps to the top...

..is number ten, Olympic runner,
Peter Bol.

I think the reason
that people remember me the most

is for breaking
two Australian Records

at the 2020 Olympic games in Tokyo.

Most recently,
I've been all over the news

for allegations

of taking
performance-enhancing drugs.

Get a move on, Ten!

I couldn't train, I

couldn't do the things I loved

like getting back on the track
and trying to compete.

I thought
you'd find that (BLEEP) easy.

(PETER BREATHES HEAVILY)

No?
No, it's not a track,

it's stairs, so...

Ah, so you don't run stairs?
No.

No, you just run concrete.

It's a different ball game.
Oh, really?

But the doping scandal
has motivated me

to be the best in the world.

Alright, step outside.

So, I'm doing it,

so the public can see me
in a different light,

and I'm here for the challenge.

Oh, sheesh.

But I am scared of heights.

Let go of that (BLEEP) thing.

Come here.

You're scared, Number Ten?

Yes, Staff.
I can see it in your eyes.

If you do what I tell you to do,
you'll be (BLEEP) OK.

I expect to be so scared during SAS

that my brain
will probably switch off.

Make sure this doesn't
(BLEEP) fall off, yeah?

It's just a matter of...

Of knowing when that is
and trying to bring it back.

That's it. That's it.

Look at me.

Back more, back more, more, more.

Bend those knees, bend those knees.

Ready, Number Ten?

Look at me.

Big (BLEEP) aggressive,
dynamic, move down.

Make entrance to that window.

(BLEEP) that fear of heights.

OK?

Stand by.

Go!

Faster!

ANT: Number Ten, just go!

Keep (BLEEP) going.

You're like a sitting duck!

OLLIE: Whoa, get in.

Get down!

STAFF: Whoa, head, head, head!

Oh, (BLEEP).

(SHOUTING)
What's going on?

Coming up...

So he was shouting in my face,

"(BLEEP),"
well "(BLEEP) you too.

"I'm out."

..'The Man', Mundine fires up.

It's belief in myself

and believe what I can do,
what I know I can do.

And later...

ANT: Move! Move! Move! Move!

..an explosive new task.

You are now in charge

of a live grenade.
Yes, Staff.

In a test of precision...

..the recruits
make a dangerous 50m rappel...

..before engaging in combat...

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

..to rescue a hostage.

(GUN COCKS)

(GUNSHOT)

JAY: Go!

But number ten, Peter Bol...

STAFF: Get down, get down!

..has dropped his weapon...

Heads! Heads! Heads!

(BLEEP) me!

(BLEEP).

..and dangles precariously
from the tower.

What's going on?

ANT: No!
What are you trying to do?

(BLEEP) kill us?

RECRUIT: What the (BLEEP) was that?

JAY: (BLEEP) idiot,
you've lost your (BLEEP) weapon.

Keep (BLEEP) moving, Ten.

Keep moving.

ANT: Keep moving!

You're a moving target, Number Ten,
keep (BLEEP) going.

Faster!

Ten, let's go!

OLLIE: Faster. Come on,
you're a moving target, Ten.

Faster, come on!

STAZ: Into the window, go,
straightaway, go, go!

Come on,
stop (BLEEP) dangling around.

Come on, Ten!

ANT: Get in that window.

Stand down.

(BLEEP) me.

Right, Number Ten,

what the (BLEEP)
just happened up there?

The gun fell off.

It didn't just fall off.

You were bouncing around up there
like some (BLEEP) maniac.

Too erratic.

It's supposed to be
a controlled action

coming down there.

Now what (BLEEP) use are you?

Are you gonna go in there
with your (BLEEP) fists up?

Is that what you're gonna do?
No, Staff.

'Cause you've lost the (BLEEP)
tool of your trade, haven't you?

So you can't do your job, can you?

No, Staff.

Absolute (BLEEP) up.

Get the (BLEEP) out of my sight.

Go on, (BLEEP) off.

STAZ: Let's go, Number Ten.

(BLEEP) up.

Go!

Number Seven, let's go!

Go!

ANT: Number 13, move!

The recruits going into that room

after abseiling
down that building...

..will have so much
going on in their heads.

Go! Go. Go. Move!

Move, take action!

Take action!

(LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO CAPTIONER)

Their cognitive overload

will push them
into making the wrong decision.

Take action!

Take action!

Take action!

Stop!

Did you feel that (BLEEP) delay?

How long it was

until you actually identified
and squeezed that trigger?

Yeah.
He'd have (BLEEP) killed you.

They will not have

that rational sense
of thinking and evaluating

before they take the shot.

What the (BLEEP) have you just done?

I panicked, and I shot...

You panicked?
I... Yeah.

(BLEEP) up, that.

I did.
Go on, off you go.

You'd be (BLEEP) dead.

That's a fail.

Everything is happening so fast,
and you have to be so aware...

Go!

..and so precise

when it comes
to pulling that trigger.

Move! Move!

Move! Move! Move!

What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?

What are you gonna do?

Move! Move! Move!
(LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO CAPTIONER)

You have to identify
the friendlies...

..you have to identify the enemy...

Move! What are you gonna do?

What are you gonna do?

..and make that split decision
under immense pressure.

Excellent. You did the right thing.

All in all, a good effort.
Thank you, Staff.

You did well,
so good effort for that.

So anything that happened

before that moment
that you take that shot...

..is irrelevant.

JAY: Don't look at me,
look at the window, Number 11.

Hurry up.

Because you're judged
by that split-second decision...

..and you have to be precise.

ANT: Get in that window.

Hurry up.

Right, calm yourself down.

I used to be a Olympic swimmer.

I want to see aggression,
I want to see control.

Absolute precision.

And my life motto has always been
to be the best that you can be.

I'm not sure if my life motto
reflects precision

as much as it reflects

continually striving
to be the best version of yourself.

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)

(LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO CAPTIONER)

Stop!

Why didn't you shoot him?

Because he wasn't pointing at me.
Right.

Then this...
When this guy came through the door,

he was pointing his weapon at me,

I shot him back.

All in all,
that was a good room entry.

You took the appropriate action
on target.

Alright, good effort.
Get downstairs.

So much of what we build around us
is mental,

and if you can reframe
that mental ability

to focus on what's possible,

actually, you can do a lot.

(EXHALES)

ANT: Number Five, let's go.

On the verge of voluntary withdrawal
earlier...

..the last recruit to enter the fray

is number five,
Anthony 'The Man' Mundine.

ANTHONY: The way I acted,

the way I talked
when I was the boss,

the confidence that I showed...

Take charge of that weapon.

..it's like the alter ego comes out.

The Man comes out.

I just turn into this different cat.

Up the stairs

until you reach the next DS
all the way to the top.

Competitive killer,
you know what I mean?

I ain't afraid of too much.

JAY: Put them gloves on.

But probably,
my worst thing is probably heights.

Scared?

Yeah.

You're not used...
Afraid of heights, bruh.

You're not used to being scared,
are ya?

Not really, nah.
Nah.

I'm just like,
(BLEEP) that's a long way down.

I mean...

I don't want to hit the bottom
type of stuff.

I want to try and face my fears,
and overcome them.

OK. Backwards.

Come on, get a (BLEEP) move on.

Oh, (BLEEP).

Holy...

Come on, you're nearly there.

Holy crap.

Come on, keep going back.

ANT: Number Five,
get a (BLEEP) move on!

Move!

Put your feet on the edge.

Start to go backward.

Get your feet on the edge.

Don't go until I tell you, yeah?

Look at me, Number Five,
this is your (BLEEP) time, yeah?

Face that fear.
Yeah.

Feel OK?
Yeah.

Yeah?
Hope so.

Right, don't go.

OK, what's gonna happen,

I'm gonna give you a standby.

When I say go, to descend.

Whoa, where the (BLEEP)
are you going?

(BLEEP) stay there, yeah?

Don't (BLEEP) go any further.

Yeah?
Yes, Staff.

Stay there.
Yeah.

OK, I'll give you
a (BLEEP) standby and a go.

Yes, Staff.
When I say go...

..you'll descend as fast
as you (BLEEP) can

down that line.

Holy (BLEEP).

Holy...

Holy dingoes.

You ready?
Yes.

(BLEEP), where the...
Oi!

Where the (BLEEP) are you going?

I (BLEEP) didn't say go, did I?

(BLEEP) hell, Number Five.

Listen to what
I'm (BLEEP) I'm telling you.

Number Five, what are you doing?

What's going on?

Number Five, go!

Get (BLEEP) down there!

Go!

Let's go.

Dynamic, aggressive.

Move, let's go.

Do you know what?
He was the fastest one down.

Right, move, move, move.

Through that door,
let's go, let's go!

Let's go.

Move!

Take action!

(INDISTINCT SHOUTING)
(LANGUAGE UNKNOWN TO CAPTIONER)

Take action! Take action!

Take action!

Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop!

Talk me through what just happened.

Seen the hostage.

Old mate
wasn't pointing the gun at me...

..so I just fired
a couple of scare shots.

You can't (BLEEP) start shooting
warning shots in this situation.

So, basically,
you could (BLEEP) trying.

Yeah.

Lucky you haven't.

And I tell you now,
you'd be in a (BLEEP) court of law

doing time for that.

And you finally did something
that was really (BLEEP) good then.

All your shots were on target,
which was great,

but you (BLEEP) everything up
by that action.

Rules of engagement.
Yeah, I know.

We're not in the business
of (BLEEP) warning shots.

Yes, Staff.

Everything has to be
(BLEEP) absolutely accurate.

Precision.
Yes, Staff.

You failed the task.
(BLEEP) off.

Physically, I'm not at my peak.

I'm not 30 no more, not 26 no more,

I'm 47, so it's a challenge.

But I don't want to be a failure.

Coming up...

You are now in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes.

..the recruits face
their most explosive task yet.

(EXPLOSIONS)

Get down! Dive!

Go, go, go, go! Move!

And one recruit's dream
of passing selection...

RECRUIT: Oh, (BLEEP).

Down!
..takes a devastating turn.

Well we need the ambulance here
with meds.

How'd you go in the entry?

CRAIG C: Oh, well,
I took too long to shoot the guy.

They shouted at me for that.

Which one?
The first guy or the second guy?

The guy I was meant to shoot.

Proper guy, yeah.
Yeah.

They reckon he shot me first.

ANTHONY: Live and learn, baby.
Yeah.

Well, not if you get shot.

(LAUGHTER)

I suppose.
(LAUGHTER CONTINUES)

Yep, that's a very valid point.

Is...
Oh, yes.

MAHALIA:
Is there one for the last one?

Yeah.

Oh, god, I'm scared.
That's alright.

ZIMA: Oh, yeah, you play football,
what am I scared for?

As duty recruit,

it's number two, Zima's job

to keep the camp
in good working order.

The closest thing to football
I'm getting at the moment.

Aw.

Have you ever played any football?

I liked footy.

I feel like I'm quite good
'cause...

I'm gonna have to steal
that toilet paper

you just put in here.

I like football.

I'm pretty good.

It's also an opportunity
to learn more about each other.

But...

I don't know,
I'm always being super creative.

Even though I'm great physically,

I've just been...

My forte and my passion
is all in the arts industry.

Yeah.

Gimme all the acting, dancing,

singing, painting, poetry,

I'm like, (BLEEP) yeah.

Team sports and stuff was fun,

I played hockey and gymnastics.

But as I've gotten older,

it doesn't bother me
that I'm more of like a...

I'm a very easy person.

I don't really
usually like competition

'cause I want other people to win.

So I'm not very competitive.

And after three days together,

more intimate details
are being shared.

Has anyone not pooed
since we've been here?

I've pooed now.

Have you pooed?
I haven't pooed.

Stage fright. It's stage fright.
(ANTHONY CHUCKLES)

We can give you some space
if you need it.

I wonder if that's what that it is.
(LAUGHTER)

What do you need space for?

(PRAYER CALL)

(ANTHONY PRAYING IN ARABIC)

As a devout Muslim...

..Anthony Mundine
goes about his daily prayers.

(ANTHONY PRAYING)

I pray five times a day
as a Muslim,

and it keeps me content,
keeps me grounded.

I'm always conscious of God,

conscious of the higher power
and everything he's blessed me with.

I just thank him.

From family to food,
to whatever it may be.

It's always Alhamdulillah,
always thank God.

(ANTHONY PRAYING IN ARABIC)

God's given me a resistance
that is unbreakable.

It's impenetrable.

Can't mess with me in that sense.

Yeah, you're gonna fail,

you're gonna have your trips
and your falls,

but it's not about the setback,
it's about the comeback.

If I'm knocked down,
I wanna get back up.

Meeting daily...

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

..the DS come together

to monitor
the progress of the recruits.

Now we're starting to get rid

of the people
that don't want to be here.

Couple of questionable people
are still here.

Great task this morning.
STAFF: Mhm.

Really good.

What'd you think about today?
Brilliant.

Yeah?
Yeah.

I mean, 50m on an abseil,

but pretty decent descent
I think we'll all agree.

Yeah.

Who stood out at the top?

Fears, phobias?

How about Number Ten?

Terrible.
(BLEEP).

Terrible.

I mean, managed to (BLEEP)
lose his weapon on the way down.

And whether that...

I don't know about you, Jay,
whether you...

But for me looking up,
he just looked so erratic.

And just going (BLEEP) off the...

STAFF: Crazy, wasn't he?

Some weird movements,
like he was (BLEEP) driving a car.

It was weird.

He definitely wasn't confident.

STAFF: Or competent.

The weapon was on his back.

None of the other recruits
struggled with it.

He managed to shuffle it off,

and (BLEEP) nearly took out the DS.

Bad day for him.
STAFF: Bad morning for him, yeah.

He's one of these people,
he gives a 110%

but he almost overthinks
and over analyses everything

to a point where he goes
(BLEEP) meltdown.

Right.
You know and it (BLEEP) eat him up

because he's almost trying too hard.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Where all you need to do is (BLEEP)
calm that down a little bit.

Let's go onto Number Four.

After the abseil she got down,
she was crying, she was a mess.

Calm down, calm down.
(BLEEP) breathe.

Breathe, breathe.

Let her go into the room,
she went in there.

The only person she never killed
is herself.

(LAUGHS)

(BLEEP) Billy the Kid.

Just panicked,
just went in and went...

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)
OLLIE: Just absolute panic.

Absolute panic.
She was about to pull a knife out.

Yeah, mowed everyone down,
yeah, I mean everyone got it.

Tell you what,
for me she was in condition red.

Do you know when you're just...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

..mmm, you just cannot think?

No cog, no rational thought.
Cognitive thought is out the window.

You are just (BLEEP).
Yeah.

It's good you know,

it shows that the tasks are there
to do what they need to do,

put people in stress
and, you know, test people.

ANT: They served their purpose.
100%, yeah.

So, Number 11.

You said she was good, right?

Solid.
Go!

She didn't seem scared

when she was stood
at the edge of the drop.

Hurry up!

She did a pretty solid abseil.

She did everything really well.
Yeah.

Good. Quickly whiz through the rest.

You got Number 14, Number Nine

and Number Two that are up there,
Number Six up there.

Do you know what I mean?

They're starting to really switch
onto, into course mode now.

It's starting to really take effect.

Let's go onto Number Five.

OK, got in the room
and he fired shots.

I then asked him to explain
what he did

and he says I fired
a couple of warning shots,

which was an excuse for firing
at the person that posed no threat.

Mm-hm.
Wow, that's serious shit.

Yeah, I got to say I'm disappointed.

Let's bring him in.

Yeah.
Let's do it.

Hey Steph, how weird is this?

I remember when I,
'cause I was probably like ten

or 12 and they made us watch
the Olympic games at school

and I had to do like a collage

and I did,
I was sticking you on my collage.

MATTHEW: That's so cute.
I kid you not.

MATTHEW: That is so cute.

You know what, I remember doing
collages of like Susie O'Neill...

Yes! Yes! Yes!
Petria Thomas,

I was like, "Oh, my god!"
Well, I stuck you on my collage.

(BLEEP) yes!

I wrote Cathy Freeman
a letter in year four.

Oh, yeah.
She never wrote back.

(LAUGHS)

I check the mail every day.

Number Five!

ABBEY: Choc, that's you.
RECRUIT: Number Five?

Stand there, face the post.
Yes, Staff.

Sydneysider who was arguably

Australia's first
real crossover star.

A multiskilled athlete,

he went from the top of one code
to the peak in another.

"His media profile
and outspoken personality,"

outspoken personality?

"Has always clashed
with the wider Australian public."

STAZ: This is quite surprising.

He must be a shadow
of his former self here.

'Cause I don't see
any of that, do you?

No.
Is he no longer this person?

That what we need to find out.

'Cause if he is, I haven't seen it.

He's hiding it well.

Step down.

Number Five my mind is blown.

I've just read
some background history about you.

"Aggressive, outspoken person."
Yeah.

And it shocked us
because we haven't seen any of that.

Is that just a show that you put on
to the external world?

Having disappointed the DS
in the task,

Number Five has been called in
for questioning.

Number Five my mind is blown.

I've just read
some background history about you.

"The aggressive,
outspoken person..."

Yeah.

And it shocked us
'cause we haven't seen any of that.

Is that just a show that you put on
to the external world?

Pretty much.
It's just a bit of a show.

But I stand by what I believe in,
you know what I mean?

But I say things that people
want to say

but are afraid to say.

Especially for political stuff
like with my people,

the Aboriginal people and that.

And like, the system was against me,

so I sort of kept going
back at them.

Go on, take me back.
Tell me your story.

My story, I was a NRL player
back in the day

and NRL, you know,
is a brutal sport.

And so I debuted in '93,
I was 18 years old.

Was only a skinny kid
and I was toughen up

but I felt like
I wasn't getting the accolades.

If I was a white fella
I'd get mad, I'd be...

Oh, you believe
it came down to race?

100%.

I was a proud
outspoken Aboriginal Muslim.

I stood up for the Aboriginal plight

and called out a lot of stuff
within the system

and that, that probably played
against me.

Go on, tell me,
tell me about that.

The system was against you.
Explain that to me.

I knew from a young age
I was gonna make it in football.

I wanted to play for Australia
in the seniors.

That was my goal.

And '99 was probably one
of my best years, right?

But at the end of that year,
they were taking a tour to England,

to, I don't know
if it was a world cup

but they were taking a tour over.

They picked 42 men
to go on this tour.

I was the best play in the league.
No doubt.

The stats showed that as well?
The stats showed that.

100% it showed that.
Yeah?

No one close to me in my position.
Yeah?

So, you obviously got picked
for the team?

No, I didn't get picked
for the team.

The Australian coach
said I didn't get picked

because of my off field
characteristics.

I don't drink, I don't smoke,
I never took drugs in my life

but I'm very outspoken.

That was when they showed me
they were in power.

You do what we say
then you'll see some (BLEEP) fruits.

Trying to leash you,

they're trying
to (BLEEP) shackle you?

'Cause I was so proud and confident

and flamboyant,

and you know, Blackfella's
not supposed to be like that.

You're supposed to shut up
and, you know, toe the line,

say the right things,
do the right things.

So, they didn't, they didn't pick me

in that,
and that crushed me, crushed me.

Devastated me.

Ripped my heart out basically

and, you know I was playing
from a young kid.

I started footy
when I was four years old.

Four years old.

And I was like,
"I should've been picked, you know?"

You can ask any of my peers
that played in '99

if I would have got,
if I should be picked

and 100%,
100% of them will say yes.

Like Aboriginal boys,

they have to be ten times as good
to get picked than others.

As a Blackfella, it's like
people don't see what,

What we have to go through
in order to just get a look in.

I was going to retire then
but then I thought nah (BLEEP).

On more time, I'll do one more time.

If they don't (BLEEP) pick me
this time,

then (BLEEP) it, I'm going.

Did you go one more time?
Yeah.

And did they pick you?
No.

I think the power structure
wanted to show me

that they were in power

and they would choose me
when they were, they were ready

but I, I had been ready for years.

They just, like,
they just shat in my face,

like, "(BLEEP) me, (BLEEP) you too."
I'm out.

You (BLEEP) hold a grudge
about that don't you?

I want to, a 100%.

Even to this day, don't you?
It ain't right, it ain't right bro.

I don't want it to happen
to somebody else,

you know what I mean?

I'll always fight for justice.

I like this side.
I like what I'm seeing here.

It's believe in myself

and belief what I can do,
what I know I can do.

There's so much more to you
than we've seen.

To go from that,

then to put your hand
at another sport

and absolutely (BLEEP) annihilate
that as well,

because that's what we know you for
the (BLEEP) boxer.

I didn't even know you had
this huge, successful career

as a rugby league player.

That's what catapulted me
to superstar.

All of my fights were pay per view
from the get go.

I want to (BLEEP) see
that superstar.

That is what I want to (BLEEP) see!

Where (BLEEP) is that?
Who, where's this guy?

It's not the (BLEEP) person that
we've seen since you've been here.

You're a (BLEEP) shell of a man.

You're like a ghost.

Just empty shell running around
between task to task.

This is what we want to (BLEEP) see.

Where's that gone?

It's not, it hasn't gone, like,
it's always there

but, it's just,
I've definitely mellowed a lot.

Being away from the sport,

my friends and family
would say I'm laid back,

I'm really quiet,
this, this soft heart.

Sometimes can be emotional.

I mean I cry, I cry in sad movies,
you know what I mean?

Like, I've got a golden heart that,
that cares for others.

Wake up Number Five!
Come on.

(BLEEP) wake up!

The (BLEEP) slate
is wiped clean with us.

We don't care
who the (BLEEP) you are,

what your background is,
your race, your religion.

Yeah.
It's the same in special forces,

nobody gives a (BLEEP).

But you're judged by your actions.

Yeah.

Let your (BLEEP) actions
do the talking.

If you (BLEEP) apply one ounce
of that (BLEEP) aggression

and that hate and point it
in the right direction,

(BLEEP) hell you should breeze
through this course.

You want to go,
"I got through this,"

I've showed an example
for your Aboriginal people,

you know, that's, that's what
you want to be (BLEEP) doing.

But you, who you are there,
the real you,

take that but incorporate
that (BLEEP) you factor,

that (BLEEP) beast factor.

Control it,
don't let it get out of hand.

Best of that person
and the best of that person,

merge that together (BLEEP) me,

no one can throw anything
at you then.

Yes, Staff.

Guard!

I think we've awakened the beast.

Where the (BLEEP)
has that guy been hiding?

Where?

He could really excel
on this course.

Yeah, I think he could.

I need to call
on the alter ego, The Man.

He come to the forefront and say,
"Listen brother.

"You can't, you can't stop.
Get up! Get up son!"

The alter ego's gonna come in
and play many times, I think.

So, I'm ready to go.

In a convoy to their next task,

the recruits will be pushed
like never before

in a life and death test
of precision.

ANT: Let's go!

Precision isn't just about
hitting the target.

JAY: As fast as you can.

It's about the planning
and preparation,

the attention to detail around that.

Hurry up!
Sprint into me, let's move!

Everything that you do

will lead up to that moment
being precise.

Right, get in there.

Ignore that...

That's it, sit down on your bergens.
..and you'll never have precision.

In my hand, I have a hand grenade.

The hand grenade
is a close quarter combat weapon

designed to maim and injure,

sometimes kill.

The hand grenade is an extremely
devastating weapon for the enemy.

It can also be a devastating weapon
against yourself

if you do not respect it.

Replicating battle
behind enemy lines,

the recruits must infiltrate
a heavily guarded compound...

(GUNSHOTS)

..while under constant fire
from an armed sentry.

Supplied with a single hand grenade
by the DS,

they must manoeuvre to the building
before launching the explosive,

eliminating the gunman...
(EXPLOSION)

..and exfiltrating to safety.

Watch how this grenade is used.

If I get down on one knee,

you're gonna put your heads
in your lap.

Let's do that.

Good.

The fly off handle stays in the web
of the hand.

As long as the fly is in the web,
you have control of it.

Let's demonstrate.

Pull the pin out.

That now is live.

The moment the fly
leaves the web, we throw.

Look at me!

(EXPLOSION)

Keep your head down!

Heads up.

Throw the (BLEEP) grenade.

Make sure it's hit its target.

You (BLEEP) get down.

If it hasn't hit its target,
you keep your (BLEEP) eye on it,

'cause if it's bouncing back to you
which some (BLEEP) idiots do,

then you have to get
out of the way.

When you use a grenade,
the pressure is high.

You have to get it right.

You have to hit the target.

If not, you become the target.

Ready for the ambush is Number Two...

Down here.

..actress Zima Anderson.

The white building you see
in front of you

is an enemy compound.

People on top of that building
are the enemy.

ZIMA: Yes Staff.

It's your mission to move from here
to the left side of that building

where I will issue you
with a grenade.

Let's go.

Keep moving, faster!
Come on!

I would be really disappointed
if I let fear get the better of me

because I know there's a definite
possibility for that.

Assess, where are you gonna go?

Where do you think
is the best place to go now?

I think right in front
of those trees there first,

then to get to the left side
of the truck.

OK. Why don't you go straight
to the truck?

But at the same time,

if I am focused on certain things,
I can get it done.

Left side of the truck.

Right hold there, hold there,
hold there.

Right you've been seen.
Yes, Staff.

So, now you have to use the cover,
you've got to get there.

Just move.

You just have to hope
you don't get shot.

(GUNSHOTS)
Stay low. Stay low.

Go, let's go, let's go.

(GUNSHOTS)

May I move to those...
Yeah.

..boxes there Staff.

Use this cover to
get to that point.

(GUNSHOTS)

No more cover.

Zigzag!

(GUNSHOTS)

Come on, he's reloading.

Right, OK, don't forget,
where does that go?

That goes in the web Staff.
In the web. Alright.

You're going to move round there
on you belly to those palettes

and then listen
to the chief instructor.

Go. Move fast!

Come on, move fast!

Let's go, all the way in.

On your belt buckle.
Get your head down!

Get your head down!
Get in there, get in there.

Yes, Staff.
When I take this pin out,

you're going to be in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes Staff.

Look at the pin.
Yeah.

Right, you are in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes, Staff.

See the sandbags there?

You (BLEEP) throw it over there,
that's where the enemy is.

That's where they've been
opening fire.

Listen, take control of this.

(BLEEP) throw that.

Aggression,
you do everything you need to do

to get that (BLEEP) live grenade
over onto that rooftop.

Yes Staff.
Do not (BLEEP) this up.

Dive!

(BLEEP) go!

Move! Move! Move! Move!

Move! Just go! Move!

(BLEEP) move!

Go, go, go, go, go!

Move! Let's go!

Move!

(GUNSHOTS)
Get down!

(BLEEP) hell.

That weapon has been used
against you and me,

not against the enemy.
Yes Staff.

You handled it extremely well.

You moved with it well.

You used it incorrectly.
Yes Staff.

'Cause that was not good enough.
Yes Staff.

Move! Move!

Unsuccessfully launching the grenade,
Number Two has failed the task.

Needing to redeem himself

after his earlier failure
on the previous task

is Number Ten,
Olympic runner Peter Bol.

Enemy compound 200m at the front.

It's your mission
to take out the sentries on top.

You can't keep (BLEEP) things up.

You understand me?
Yes Staff.

Do you understand?

So, I need everything
you've got on this.

Let's go, let's go!

Where are we going to move to now?

The truck Staff.
The truck.

Move there
as fast as you (BLEEP) can.

Up.

Down there.

OK. Alright.

Have a look, see what they're doing,
see where they're looking.

OK. He's coming - go.

(GUNFIRE)

Almost immediately,
Number Ten comes under enemy fire.

Run. Hold target.
Zig zag.

(GUNFIRE)

Right. Do you understand me?
This is a (BLEEP) grenade.

Do not (BLEEP) around.

You're going to crawl around here
on you belly

to the chief instructor.

Get on your belly,
go on, go, fast as you can.

Let's go Number Ten, let's go.
Fly in the web, let's go.

All the way up here,
let's go, let's go, let's go.

Head down, head down,
head down, head down.

Get in here. Get in here quick.
Keep your eye on me here.

Now look at me.
Look at me.

You are now holding a live grenade.

That needs to go up onto that roof.

You can't afford to (BLEEP) this up.

Get back in the game,
make this (BLEEP) count.

Let's go.

(EXPLOSION)

Good effort, good effort.

Crawl, crawl, crawl, get down.
That's it. Crawl.

Follow me, follow me.

On your feet, on your feet,
on your feet, let's go.

Let's go, let's go, let's go.
Let's go.

Get down there.
On your knees.

(BLEEP) good effort, good effort.
Yes Staff.

All that shenanigans that's happened
over the last couple of days...

It's over Staff.
Get that out of your (BLEEP) head.

This is what I expect from you, OK?

(BLEEP) outstanding effort.
Good.

PETER:
I think my values will help me

get through the SAS course.

Resilience, teamwork,
I'm ready to excel

and I'm ready to embrace it.

I want you to (BLEEP) understand

the severity of what you've got
in your hand, right?

It's a live grenade.
You heard what it can (BLEEP) do.

You have to understand
when it comes to throwing a grenade,

when it comes to taking the shot,
it's not like Hollywood.

Think about your next move,
where are you going?

Time is of the essence.
Yes Staff.

Let's go.
He's got his back to you.

You are under immense pressure.

Time's running out.

Come on, what are you waiting for?
(GUNFIRE)

Come on, let's go.

He's (BLEEP) seen you anyway.

It's important for us
to get the recruits in that zone,

to absolutely thrashing them
on the way to the target.

Alright, move down the wall,
on your belly!

When it comes to taking a shot,

when it comes to throwing a grenade,
you're not composed.

Remember, (BLEEP) live grenade.
Yes Staff.

You don't want to die today.

Make sure you've got your eyes on it
at all times.

The art of this
is to gain that composure.

ANT: On your belt buckle.
OLLIE: Get your arse down. Come on!

And be precise
in every little aspect

of what you're doing.

Hold onto that grenade.

OLLIE:
And when they're at the target,

they've got to control everything.

You're now in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes Staff.

They'll be breathing erratically.

Get down.
(EXPLOSION)

Good.

OLLIE: They'll have to spot
where the enemy are.

Get down! Get down!

OLLIE: And they'll have to use
that absolutely precision...

Right, let's move!
..to get the grenade on target.

(BLEEP) hell!

Get down! Down!

(BLEEP) well done.

Mission success.
Thank you Staff.

Well done, amazing effort.

(BLEEP) scary, right?

OLLIE: You must do everything
in your power...

Let's go. Move.

..take make sure the enemy
doesn't get the upper edge on you.

(BLEEP) hell Number Seven!

(BLEEP) bounced off the wall!

Otherwise you are gone.
You are finished.

Number 11.

Wanting to impress the DS
is Number 11,

Olympic gold swimmer,
Stephanie Rice.

OK it's your mission to move
from here undercover, undetected

to the left-hand side
of that building

where I'm gonna issue you
with a live grenade.

OK.
Let's go.

STEPHANIE:
I've never had to execute precision

whilst I've been in a fear state.

Right.

What are you gonna do next?

Gonna run behind the big truck.

Right, OK,
where's the sentry looking?

Oh, he's looking over
to the other side.

Right. It's a good time
to go then isn't it?

Let's go, let's go, let's go.

Fast as you can.
STEPHANIE: I love pressure.

Choosing to step up,
to give it a go...

What's he doing?
Looking around over the side.

Knowing it could be disastrous

but choosing to give it
a shot anyway.

(GUNFIRE)
You've been seen, you've been seen.

You've been seen,

right, you're just going
to have to go for it.

Go, go, go, go, go, go.

(GUNFIRE)

(PUNCHY SOUND)
(CRIES) (BLEEP).

(GROANS)

Come on, let's move it!

Move down to me, come on.

Use the wall as cover.

Diving awkwardly onto the sand,
Number 11 is now injured.

I'm about to give you (BLEEP)...
Hey, what's the matter?

Just hurt my shoulder, yeah.

About to give you a live grenade,
remember what I said.

Yes Staff.

OK, make sure the fly
is in the web...

How you doing?

(GROANS) (BLEEP).

In a life or death test of precision,

the recruits must infiltrate
an enemy compound

and using a single grenade,
eliminate the arm sentry...

Move down to me, come on.

Use the wall as cover.

Come on, let's move it!

..but Number 11 has been injured.

(BLEEP).

I just can't lift this arm,

so if I have to do something
without (BLEEP).

If for some reason

I had medical issues or injuries
with my swimming

I've been able to push through
my personal boundaries.

Stay low but move round

then sprint up that hill
to the, to the chief instructor.

Stay low.

STEPHANIE: There's no way
I would ever go out

without a big, strong fight.

ANT: All the way in, all the way in.
All the way in, quick.

Pushing through the pain,
she continues with the task.

Quick as you can.
Look, face me, face me, face me.

Face this way.

Right.

You are now in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes Staff.
Calm yourself down.

Listen very carefully

to what I'm about to say.

If I say get your head down,
you get your head down in the sand.

If I say dive,
you dive over the berm.

OK?

You're ready, go for it.

Oh (BLEEP).

Dive! (BLEEP) Let's go!
Let's go!

Come on, let's get up, move, get up,
up, move, let's go, let's go, move.

Move!

Number 11, come here.

Sit down, sit down.

Come here, come here, come here.

Look at me, look at me.

Look at me.
(BLEEP) look at me.

You know what this is for?
Look.

Good job that was there.

(BLEEP) hell.

OK, OK.
I'll get the doctor.

(GRUNTS).
Thank you Staff.

Chief medic Dr Dan
is called in to assess the injury.

(GROANS) I can't hold it anywhere

other than just sort
of straight down.

Yeah. No, you won't be able to.

I think the shoulder's
come out of join.

You've lost all the angle
of that shoulder

and I can feel the head
of your humerus,

your upper arm bone
is in the front.

It's popped that shoulder
out of joint.

Yeah, 11's dislocated
her left shoulder.

We need the ambulance here with meds
to put it back in.

(INDISTINCT RADIO CHATTER)

Are you able to move your arm?
No.

Can you wiggle your fingers for me?
Yes.

You can feel everything here?
Yes.

Just slow, deep breath.

So would you like me to try
to put this back in right now?

Yeah.
Yeah. OK.

Deep breath in.
You're going good.

Deep breaths.

There we go, there we go.
There we go.

OK.

It's all back in.
Thank you.

Preparing for the course
is a lot of work.

I have no intention of quitting

'cause quitting to me
is not giving everything you've got.

Remember the (BLEEP) drills,
it's a live grenade.

Yes Staff.
Alright?

I don't want to die today.
Hold it, hold it, hold it, yeah.

Let's make this (BLEEP) Mundine day.

Yes Staff.
Alright?

Let's go, let's go.

Number Five is the last recruit

attempting the dangerous
infiltration.

I know it's a mental game.

You have to be very strong mentally

and I'm very, very,
very strong mentally.

Got to go, you've got to go,
you've got to go anyway.

Just run as fast as you can.

Physically I'm not at my peak
but I'm not bad either.

If I set out to do something,
I'm gonna do it. Period.

Right, I'm about to hand you
a (BLEEP) live grenade,

I do not want to die today,
do you understand me?

Yes.

Like I don't want to be a failure.
I don't want fail.

I don't want to fail at all.

You are now in charge
of a live grenade.

Yes Staff.
Think about it.

I want you to look,
see where that sandbag is?

Yeah.

I want it over that sandbag
onto the roof.

The enemy is on the roof.
Yes Staff.

Go.

Down!

Good, good. Let's go, move, move,
down on your belly, on your belly.

On your belly let's go,
on your feet, let's go.

Let's go. Let's go.
Quick, quick, quick.

Get down on your knees.
(BLEEP) good effort, well done.

Yes Staff.
(BLEEP) great.

This is the standard
you need to maintain.

Yes Staff.
This is all about you, alright?

Well done.
Outstanding.

If you say I can't do something,

I'll stay till however long
it's going to take me

to prove that I can do it.

That's what separates the Man
from the rest, you know what I mean?

Let's go.

I'm a beast bruh, I'm a beast.

Come on Number Seven, let's go.

As day turns to night
and the desert temperature drops,

the recruits download
after the exhausting task.

You did (BLEEP) great today.

Did you throw the grenade?
Yeah.

So how'd it go?
Mad.

It went straight over the thing?

I beasted it bro.
(BLEEP) of course you did.

Ah! Good job!
Of course you did.

You're so good!

Do we need more wood?
For kindling?

Yeah.
Shall I get that started?

Yeah. Bro, you're ripped!

(LAUGHS)

Thanks.
"Thanks."

Thanks man.

Oh, (BLEEP) it's cold.

Big boy.

Thanks. That's the nicest thing
anyone's said to me

for such a long time.
MAHALIA: Big boy.

No, no, he said,
"Oh, you're ripped."

Oh I thought you were talking
about when he said, "Big boy."

Big boy?
Oh no, I get big boy all the time.

(LAUGHS)

Shit.

In the mess, duty recruit Zima
rations out the evening meal.

Oh, need some pasta.

MAHALIA: Give the big boy some meat!
(LAUGHS)

It'd be nice if they told us
what Steph's status is, wouldn't it?

ABBEY: When I asked Jay
all he said was, "She's alive."

This course is chewing people up
and spitting them out.

RECRUIT: Yeah.

Do you reckon she's gone
like permanently?

Nope. She'll be back.

After X-rays at the hospital,

Number 11 is clear
to return to camp.

ANT: Number 11.

How are you feeling?

I'm alright.
I've felt better.

But her place on selection
is still in doubt.

What's keeping you here?
What's your driving force?

If I commit to something,

I work really hard
to prepare for it.

I felt like I haven't really trained
for anything

since finishing competing,

like, I, haven't really had
like a goal to work towards

one specific thing,

so I really wanted
to challenge myself and...

How long ago was that?

That I stopped competing?
Yeah.

Ten years ago.

You're telling me for ten years,
you've just been cruising along?

No, I've had like
bits and pieces of purpose

but it's not the same
type of thing.

Like having an athletic goal
is something I know how to do.

Like I know how to prep for that.

I know how to train
and push myself

and I've always loved that,
like, feeling

so like having this opportunity
gave me that purpose

of, like, being able
to utilise everything

I know I'm really good at,

and put it to the test
in a different way.

And you haven't had that
since 2012?

I don't know if I'll ever find
something that was the same

as what swimming was.

How old are you Number 11?
34.

You retired...
24.

24?

Yeah.

34, you haven't even started
your life really.

That young age you retire,

there's, you got your whole life
in front of you.

Eight months out
of the London Olympics

I tore the tendon
in my shoulder.

I remember sitting down
with the physio

and he said that
I would need surgery to recover it.

My goal was to compete
at the London Olympics

whether I had a torn tendon
in my shoulder or not.

I was not going to miss
that opportunity.

I trained through pain
every single day.

I know how devastated you was
when you were injured, you know,

I wouldn't say
it was so much of a cry of pain

as frustration that...
Yeah.

..you were potentially leaving
the course.

I can see that
you're just absolutely raging.

It's frustrating.

that I'm not doing it still
to the best of my ability.

That was my whole last like
three years of my swimming career.

It's just so hard to,

to prepare for something

and like give
everything you have to it

and it's something that happens
like one time,

like that's what this is.

Like it's not like
I can come back in six months

and give it another crack like,

and that's, like that's really hard
to work around psychologically.

When I think about failure,

I would think about
the London Olympics.

Everything went wrong.

I got injured, I got sick.

I needed a break
to step away from swimming.

Things didn't align the way
I knew they could have.

I just remember really longing
for it to be over

and that was the day
of the opening ceremony.

Just want it to be done.

I couldn't wait for it to be over
so I could actually take a break.

I really struggled.

I felt really lost
after I finishing swimming.

Do you want to be here?

With a recently dislocated shoulder,

Number 11's future on the course
hangs in the balance.

Do you want to be here?

I'm not ready to go.

I don't feel like
I've gotten to the point

where I've really like
tested myself properly yet

and all the challenge
that I want to put myself through

on this course,

to leave before I've taken
anything from it...

Mm-hm.

I want to leave knowing that I took
something for myself

that I can take home.

I really struggled.

I felt really lost
after I finished swimming.

I didn't feel like I had any purpose
or any direction

and I didn't feel
like anybody understood.

Are you still lost now?
You look like, you're still...

Do I look lost?

No, you just look like
you need a purpose.

You got kids, a partner or?

You haven't.

By yourself?

Yeah.
Oh, I see, yes.

It's harder.

I think.

It would be nice
to have somebody to...

Yeah, that sucks.

Yeah.

Go through the harder times with.

I'd love to have somebody to help
through the, like ride the waves.

Yeah, you grow even more.

Yeah.
Grow even more.

What have you go back home?

Sorry, Number 11, what have you got
back home to go to?

At the moment, not a lot.

You want this badly, don't you?
Yeah, I do.

I think you, you know what,
I think you need it.

Having heard that
I think you need this.

Yeah, I do need this.

There's a place for you
on this course.

Yeah, I want to stay.
You know, we want you here.

Yeah.
You deserve to be here.

You haven't even got out
of second gear yet.

We know that.

I know that you want
to be here

and when I have people like that,
like yourself,

yeah, we'll bend over backwards

to make sure that
we don't change standards

or anything

but I'll make sure that,
you know, you get what you can

out of this without injuring you
any further.

You happy with that?
Yep.

Are you sure?
Yes.

Let's get you back in the game.
Sounds good.

Let's do it.
OK. Back in that headspace.

On this course,
you're not alone, alright?

Bandaged and cleared to continue...

Over to you now.

Whatever you've got to do.

..Stephanie returns to the dorm.

Oh, you're back.

Oh, oh my god, what the (BLEEP),
scared the (BLEEP) out of me.

Didn't mean to wake you.
What's happened? Talk to us.

(SIGHS) I dislocated it.

He said that I can keep going
for a bit which is good.

Yeah? Good.

So, I just gonna do
everything I can.

Yeah.

Load up on drugs.

So, is it dislocated?

They popped it back in right away.
Shit.

Yeah, I got it X-rayed.
It was fine, so...

So it's back in?
Yeah.

'Cause we could see...
Yeah.

..just in the distance,

like all the people congregated
around you

and then we saw like Dr Dan
running through the (BLEEP) desert

to get to you
and then the ambulance came

and we were just like,
"Oh, my god!"

Did you think I'd like hit myself
with the grenade or something?

Yeah. We didn't know,
like, blown herself up.

We didn't know what you were doing,
what was going on.

You alright?
Yeah.

I'm just gonna do as best as I can.

But what a beast staying
in the game.

That's, that's beast.
Oh mate, I was heartbroken.

That's beast.

But to stayed in the game.
I was like,

I cried all the way
to the hospital and back.

We knew you'd be devo.
I was like, just died inside.

The SAS selection course

is the most brutal
and hardest military course

in the world.

It takes mental
and psychological resilience

just to walk through the gates.

It's a course where you will learn
some much about yourself

that if you pass it,

you feel invincible.
