  • And at 19 years old, you applied to be a Navy SEAL.

  • Okay, so I have to ask a very dumb question here, which is what is a Navy SEAL?

  • So there's special operations, which I guess, you know, from England, this is the SAS and the SBS.

  • So those are the two sort of units that we get compared to the most.

  • And so a Navy seal is a part of the Navy, but you're the special operations component of the Navy.

  • And the term seal is actually an acronym, which stands for sea, air, and land.

  • Because even though we're in the Navy, we are trained to operate in the sea, in the air.

  • So in the sea, meaning we dive.

  • In the air, meaning we parachute and repel.

  • And then on the land, meaning we conduct land warfare operations.

  • And you take all those things, combine them together.

  • And that's what our job consists of.

  • I was under the assumption that to become a Navy SEAL or to be in the SAS,

  • you had to have 10, 20 years of military service.

  • You had to have an established military service.

  • And then you get some pop-up on your computer.

  • And it says, come to this building over here.

  • And so to hear that you applied at 19 years old,

  • I was like, oh, I didn't know teenagers could apply.

  • Yeah.
