The Pirate Bay...
Edit: Why would you illegally download it?
Number5, your logic doesn't make much sense to me. I don't know why anyone would want to be associated with the Pirate Bay.

If you mean by watching it on YouTube then I would much rather just watch it on my laptop straight through and not broken up into many parts, as well as whenever I want and not require an internet connection. I'm pretty sure if Discovery doesn't mind these multiple users uploading it on YouTube for the world to see for free then they most definitely don't care if I downloaded it for my self.

TR, you made me laugh, again. So true though! The unedited version without commercial breaks, a laptop freezing up for "buffering" and the real 3D effects were outstanding! If I remember right, I tried to hit PAUSE multiple times so I could go grab a beer, morphine, cry, but just wasn't meant to be. TIVO is such a crutch!
Number 5, you should try viewing it at the McKall Movie Theater, it's better than IMAX.

Ah, the good old days
Ah, the good old days.
Stepping out of the Company Orderly Room into a dark Monday morning, looking to my front and right to see over 600 soldiers standing quietly at Parade Rest.
A quick exchange with the senior TAC, SFC Duzor and he marched them off to the PT Field.
My, My how fast they came back. 20 - 30 at a whack a couple of times a day for the next week. And then a trickle.

I haven't seen it, yet-do the students still have to do 8 pullups with weapon and LCE before they get chow?
I think that's probably the nearest I came to any kind of life-or-death situation the whole time I was in the Service.

I watched all 9 parts on Youtube last night. It looked like a suckfest (eg fun). Where do I get my "old man" waiver?
Entrepreneurial SOF guys should create more civilian "adventure tourist" outfits like these for the masochists with wallets.
All fun aside, it looks like a shit sandwich and it was neat to get a glimpse about a lot of the places & things QP talk about or hint on here.
Was there anybody from PS.com on the videos who wants to out themselves?

It is on youtube, but will likely be pulled. I haven't checked, and can't from work, but it may well be on the network's website. Many networks put their shows up for streaming. You can also download videos from Youtube, using a program I won't mention, though many probably already have it. I have no desire to assist in copyright infringement.
As to torrenting it...don't be an idiot. Are you really willing to risk your prospective SF career (Assuming you are trying for SF,) or whatever other career you have or aspire to, just to get a TV show you can likely acquire for free LEGALLY?
I watched it. Found it motivating. Might buy it, just for the hell of it.

Its been said before, as the older guys will attest too, not knowing every step is part of the adventure.
Role with it young brothers!
