Navy Seals are all glamour and glitz like most things American
The British SAS wins any day of the week, long pack marches > overhead pressing fake logs in the surf

I think a better comparison would be to use British SBS, but not many know who they are, SAS have had far more exposure to public due to books like bravo two zero etc.
Fijians
I know a few peeps that have tried SAS selection, absolutely brutal...that's coming from a few royal marines.
in all seriousness special forces guys generally in my limited experience cant fight that well H2H
Now my experience is limited to a bunch of Commandos traneing BJJ and some stand up with us when I traned UFC cage fighting. What was clear is that they dont give up and are tough but not that skilled at H2H
I also watched our instructor dismantle an Israeli who claimed to be special forced, he ended up tearing the guy's pec with an armbar cause he reckons he couldnt straighten the guys arm out. Again the guy was a tough mofo but not very skilled.

Did you know that Fijians are the most frequently selected ethnicity p4p into the Brit SAS?
I met one at the pub herein Aus, didnt believe a word he said cause it was at the pub but then a mutual mate vouched for him
really? thats pretty cool...just found
this: Tributes paid to one of the first Fijians to join the SAS
I believe you... but h2h combat is probably the last of the skills they train. They would pump a dozen bullets in us then knife before they even consider h2h. I trained with 2 paratroopers/commandos here in Canada and they were tough, no doubt, but I beat them and I'm just a regular dude.
Ps:
I miss those guys. Afghanistan vets. Solid friendly dudes.
Yeah Ive read this story, my uncle served in the British army and got an eye injury during active duty in the ME (Lebanon IIRC)
The fuckers wouldnt give him a medical visa years later to get his eye repaired and he was going to pay for the surgery himself. I think it had something to do with Fiji getting kicked out of the Commonwealth for dissolving their constitution which is fair enough I suppose but a bit rough since he had nothing to do with that
thats fucked man, same with Gurkhas, only now they are truly getting the recognition they deserve
If I recall correctly one of the sas commandos who raided the lybian embassy in the 80s is Fijian. The one that got caught entangled in the in the cable rappelling and got sort of burn iirc.
Yeah 100% tough motherfuckers, it wouldnt take much for them to get to a high level of MMA/BJJ but its not really worth the time. I think I read a comment by a SF guy to the effect that if you find yourself in a H2H situation in war you have already fucked up bigtime
All that said they would wreck a taliban or Isis guy H2H imho
Meh politicians eh?
BTW he's doing fine, he is the GM of a small Island resort, drinks for free all day and bangs ugly overweight Aussie divorcee "women" as a sport
good to hear, always hate hearing stories about vets getting fucked by policies etc. Always disgusts me when see military vets homeless.
Wo.
That's a bad ass right there.
i think we can all agree both regiments are completely badass, but always a good discussion.

Question: Do the brits get to use cars as weapons and suicide belts?
Swedish kustjagare whips them both at the same time.
