    woooah! looks awaesome…anyone who can do that has gotta be a tough guy…makes the Royal Marines look like boy scouts…respect to all who complete it :-]

  8. BlackOak says:

    It’s not impossible, of course. And it’s also true that some people avoid challenging themselves so they can pretend they’re superior.

  9. lespantalones says:

    They have to fight each other in a bit before the finish line

  10. Rich says:

    You have to be tough to do that. Wow.

  11. All this to get to the pub before last orders are called.
    The Brits are used to all this; they are continually in the shit.
    Some fabulous shots though. Well done to those who made the pictures.
    Just out of interest ;what did the winner get? A years free dry cleaning? Thanks for that . The Baldchemist

    and believe me, altough im not quite tall, im athletic and i want to get scars from that thing, no pain no gain

  13. SeismicMike says:

    Any guy who completes that race automatically has bigger balls than I do!!!

  14. sticks says:

    Those photos are great, especially the guy in the hat. Do you know what camera was used?
    I sure as hell couldn’t do that. A hard man’s Takeshi’s Castle…

  15. dave says:

    those guys deserve so much oral sex after this.

  16. Nice! I like, I like. People in mud, always a good thing.

  17. Jeepanda says:

    Why on earth would anybody actually want to do this???

  18. Chuck Norris says:

    Ahhhh memories, I won this when I was 4.

  19. canvasch says:

    I really want to try this, looks like a good challenge… I’d pay a decent amount of $$$ to be able to compete…

  20. Chuck norris says:

    Yeah i remember perfectly was part of my ceromony of becoming an adult at 4 ….

  21. baracuda says:

    So who won?

  22. Chronus says:

    Okay. Can we Americans STOP calling Brits pussies, now? Good GOD that is a badass sport.

  23. Spike says:

    We never called the Brits pussies – only the French. And also because they eat snails and smell.

  24. Faggot w/ the tuba says:

    I think we need more american things like this… we have too many fat lazy asses!

  25. blueyedevil says:

    i would do it…..again!

  26. CCTY says:

    Hmm. Looked at the website of The Tough Guy Race. Rather dubious political thinking on the front page. If this was the USA, it would be organised by the KKK.

  27. Sneaking Cobra says:

    This is bad ass, although I admit I probably wouldn’t do this. Also to the people complaining about Brits, look up the British SAS. You call this crazy, the SAS would call it Monday.

  28. Jace says:

  30. John says:

    Boy, does that ever look like fun. In my younger days I would have been all over something like that.

  31. Satan says:

    lol, while you guys are wasting your time on the internet, i netted another 1 million souls… suckers!

  32. Josh says:

    Wow, can’t believe I stumbled this.

    My dad and brother do this every year, now I’m old enough to they’re trying to get me to.

    :o

  33. asdvj says:

    the only bit i don’t like the look of is the barbed wire

  34. giorgio says:

    thank god i’m a lazy git

  35. Darwin says:

    It doesn’t matter, none of you actually exist.

  36. american says:

    It’s like the stupid Survivor competitions, except real. Neat, but insane.

  37. Jay says:

    Who’s the hottie with the eyebrows in the fifth picture down?

    Looks like her boobs are taped down, but they are still there.

  38. Michael the Archangel says:

    Satan! want to start Armageddon now? Want to get your can of ass whoopin’? Hah! In case you forgot, Stalin is on your side, He should take care of murdering your own one million.

  39. Andy Mc says:

    That looks even worse than selection for the regiment.

  40. Muhammad says:

    Hey J.. wanna come get stoned?

  41. houdini87 says:

    StuffWhitePeopleLike: crazy-ass races through mud

  42. pointed finger says:

    How exactly does swimming through mud look hard? I did stuff like this when I was a kid. They do it all the time in the army…

  43. GO HARD OR GO HOME!

  44. 8===D says:

  45. PENIS says:

    Chuck Norris is a fag. Go back to Gaia, fags.

  46. Jolly Green Giant says:

    What a bunch of pussies!

  47. Excellent Photos; Good Looking Site Too. Linked you to my newbie site.

  48. Teros says:

    Originally this was going to be an assault course for the british military but it was considered too hard. Good thing too because if it did get chosen as a military assault course then the british military would be unstoppable.

  49. Liesel says:

    This “guy” looks distinctly like a girl. Are girls allowed or are my eyes fooling me?
