Not only were they given classroom lessons, the contestants were taken through various fitness drills during their four-day stay at the Jungle Warfare School.




They took part in a special “Booby Trap” training session in the jungle, which was to enable them value the techniques used to withstand threats and possible opposition, as well as a firing/shooting demonstration, whose moral was to get the contestants to aim and achieve their targets in life.
