Apparently, the military unit in this video decided to show off a little for the camera. The beach turned out to be not quite as firm as they thought it would be! Be sure your sound is on, the audio starts when they "hit the beach," you can hear the guys laughing under the music. My guess is that the plan was to land and then rush towards the camera with weapons ready. That was the plan.Military Beach Landing Video
NOTE: The video is titled Belgiumelite so I assumed that the guys were Belgians. "Elite" usually refers to a special forces unit of some type. Mik says "from the kit and weapons, those are British Squaddies not Belgians." Apparently he recognized one of his British cousins stuck in the mud or something. I defer to his expertise and have changed the post accordingly.

That is just too funny. It looks like they landed in quick sand.

I like the guy has his butt stuck in the mud but still has his gun ready pretending he could actually do something!!
Oh man, that was a true show of Belgium military prowess. They should just stick to waffles. Maybe America should invade them to save them from themselves.

don't you imagine they were set up, a little hazing, initiation, whatever.
I once jump off a boat in an inlet of the Alton pool (the water behind a dam on the Mississippi River at Alton IL) and landed up to my waist in mud/quicksand/sludge -- the boat had to pull me out, my swimming suit did not make the trip with me -- some archaeologist will dig it out of that mud a thousand years from now and conclude that all of the natives in the late twentieth century wore loudly-colored short pants, or that they wore long pants and were four feet tall and color blind.
Those guys were set up in a bad way. Military pranksterism at it's best. With friends like these who needs enimas.

the enimas were probably for later that night, or the old British trick of flaming toilet paper!
