#AustralianSAS #NavySEALs #Survival

In February 2003, a battle-hardened US Navy SEAL instructor watched an Australian SAS operator bite the head off a live beetle and swallow it whole. The SEAL vomited. Three days later, that same American commando was begging the Australian to teach him which insects were edible.

This documentary uncovers the pivotal training exercise in the jungles of Tully, Queensland, that forced the Pentagon to rewrite its special operations doctrine. While the elite US DEVGRU team arrived with 60-pound rucksacks and high-tech filtration systems, the Australians arrived with empty packs and knives.

Witness the clash between American "Logistical Superiority" and Australian "Environmental Exploitation." Discover how a 12-day patrol proved that knowledge weighs nothing, but MREs weigh a ton—and why the Australian ability to "eat the jungle" humiliated the world's most powerful military force.
