In this brief testimonial, the speaker recounts the harrowing five‑day selection known as Yom Saiyarot. Participants are placed in groups of about 25 after a preliminary filter that selects the first 500 out of thousands. The five‑day trial is described as the worst experience of the speaker’s life, with constant urges to quit. The test pushes participants to extreme physical limits, emphasizing that success depends on an innate mental capacity rather than something that can be trained; you either have it or you don’t.
