La formation militaire demande, généralement, de la discipline, de la précision et beaucoup de courage qui peut être necessaire au moment du combat. Mais pour les soldats qui suivent une formation dans l'Armée populaire de Libération en Chine, le niveau est tout autre. Voici l'incroyable exercice de la "patate chaude" mais avec une vraie grenade ... Les soldats se passent la grenade à tour de rôle autour d'un grand trou, le dernier à la lourde tâche de jeter la grenade dans le trou, tous doivent se retourner et sauter le plus loin possible au moment de l'explosion de la grenade.
Military training is an intense business, involving discipline, precision, and reserves of courage that can be called upon in the midst of battle. But for soldiers undergoing training in the People's Liberation Army of China that's taken to a whole different level -- as one of their exercises involves a life-and-death game of 'hot potato' with a live grenade. Incredible video footage shows Chinese troops stationed in Hong Kong passing around the live explosive from one soldier to the next until the last one finally throws it in the hole. The soldiers then leap out of the way before it explodes, covering their heads for protection.
The clip shows them again doing the exercise, standing around a large hole. Each soldier deliberately takes the explosives in both hands and twists slightly at the torso before handing it off to the next soldier. The last soldier to hold the grenade must make sure it lands on the pond-side of the hole, a decidedly difficult task given the circumstances. All soldiers then leap to the ground as the C4 detonates, sending piles of dirt and dust into the air.

C'est la nouvelle année et beaucoup d'entre nous ont décidés de prendre de bonnes résolution (au moins pour les 3 premiers mois). C'est sans doute ce que s'est dit notre athlète du jour, mais je ne suis pas sur qu'il ait attendu 3 mois pour reprendre une vie normale...
It's the new year and many of us decided to make good resolution (at least for the first 3 months). This no doubt that our athlete of the day told himself, but I'm not sure he waited three months to take back a normal life ...
