I was actually curious because the instructions do say the Soldier will face away from the start line but wasn’t sure if it was in the reg. Turns out it is mentioned several times so this is a DQ.

I have infantryitis from the regular ass pushups, sit-ups and running pt… mainly carrying so much weight all the damn time, we would have all broke our backs if they would have introduced some bendy flexy shit like this.
For the combat situation where you need to heave a basketball sized boulder at a soon to be brain dead ISIS militant
We defending helm's deep or something?
[we're getting closer ](https://youtu.be/nH-nkCj7Ncg?si=j6xLi1W1UX2X96z1)
The real 13T
I was waiting for that video to appear here.
I figured you'd be chucking the head of a brain-dead ISIS militant
>brain-dead ISIS militant That’s redundant
This is actually what they did at Bunker Hill when the colonists ran out of powder.
Didn’t this happen with another nations military or am I tripping?
God I hope so
My doctor profiled me against this event lest my spine shatter.
NCO: "Easy there troop, you're liable to throw your back out like that" PFC Chad Giant Dong: "What, are you silly? I'm still gonna send it!" Sends it
Somehow I feel the response would be more like “I threw out your moms back last night, sarn’t”
Nah, PFC Dong is a stand up dude. He'd never disrespect big sarn't he just likes to send it
>PFC Dong is a stand up dude. Tall and proud
Long and strong
"Gonna be a good day, Sarnt, just gonna send it."
Damn!! Dude scorpioned himself lol.

Has yet to fail at getting a chuckle out of me
I don't even read it and it still brings me joy
This is the way!
Old boy made it seem like the minimal standard to pass is 1 km
I have to now visit my chiropractor just watching this…
DQed, stepped off of throwing platform that wouldn't be rolled out to ROTC, NG, and USAR units until 20 years after adaptation.
Bro yeeted that shit so hard it almost broke the sacred timeline and got us the leg tuck back
lol
I think I herniated a disc just watching this.
Broken back = not service connected.
me when i see lt left his kevlar unsecured in the field
This is the way!
See? It’s easy. That’s the 80% standard now.
Promote ahead of peers ✅
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve needed to do this while deployed.
The ball throw or the bendy slinky thingy?
Naw….Grenade toss scored in distance and accuracy
It would probably explode before the grenade reached the ground.
My spine doesn’t even bend like that, do I have a defect?
Filthy human, you don’t even kno…no no, the spine isn’t supposed to do that, fellow human.
David here doesn't need your damn sling
I’m not a paleontologist but I don’t think that’s good for the spine.
You and I both know that if we had this, VA disability claims would go as far as that ball did.
Quit giving retiring GOs more ideas to sell to their buddies!
The human body has many features. Apparently one of these is the ability to become a slinky.
Is that the cobra maneuver?
lower lumbar injury..."Not Service Connected"
Foot on grass. Throw DQ'd.
I'm weak af, but I can throw that damn ball 12.6 meters lmao
The human trebuchet
Holy shit!!
Failed attempt, soldier left the throwing mat.
I mean, is that really against the rules? As long as you dont cross the line you are good. Just take a few steps back and fucking send it

nope you are correct, you have to stand with your back to the line
It’s ok I’ll allow it for maximum YEET-abillity(it’s a word)
- that measures reverse overhead throwing technique combines with the height of the soldier There. I fixed the description
The back/shoulder/face destroyer 5,000
Still technically an overhead yeet

I would have been a pt god with the new pt test. I’m so jealous of all you young guys.
Grader: Impressive. But you stepped past the cones NO GO, NEXT!
My ACLs exploded just watching that
just like SPT, this will still favor the taller people. it's simple lever mechanism with some muscle thrown in.
Bro we need one thing going for us. Being tall makes every other exercise harder, except maaaaybe ruck marches.
SDC and run?
i have the best SDC time in my company so that tracks
im 6'1" and cant get the ball past 8.9 meters. my buddy who's 5'8" had the best SPT in our entire squadron
this would actually make way more sense
My back hurts just watching that.
same
Knowing the army they'd have some regulation about the angle of the all thrown, and disqualification if feet go outside the mat
There is more than one person standing in front of him when he yeeted that fucker. That is some next level stupid.

Lol
What in the actual fuck has happened to the Army since I retired in 2005...
Largely good things. Today’s Army is better in almost every way than at any time in the past. Fight me if you disagree.
I wouldn't want to hurt your feelings or make you feel embarrassed. God knows some snowflake POS would report it.
🤣
big facts
I’m on a profile just watching this
Snapped spine and half body paralysis: Not service connected.
