Every year, South Korean
special-forces undergo serious winter training to
strengthen their minds and bodies and to make sure the cold
doesn't affect them on live missions.
More than 200 rangers take part in the
gruelling winter training session, in Pyeonghang, 180 km east
of Seoul. They do gymnastics, swim in icy water, hurl snow at
their bare chests, build snow shelters and sprint, all at
temperatures of under -30 degrees Celsius. The extreme
training lasts for nine days. |
