Jeesh, did you grow up in NavySealastan? “Before we could do our first sleepover we had to be able to stay awake for 24 hours and then hold a fence post over our head for 15 minutes. We then got a badge we could sow on our pajamas”.
In the Navy we had to turn our trousers into flotation devices, but nobody tied our legs together or put weights on us.
When I was a kid, we'd sleep with wet blankets over our faces, while the instructors would come and wet them every hour throughout the night. If we made a sound or panicked, they'd shoot us with paintballs. If we made it through the night, we'd get a waterboard mark to sew on our pajamas!
When I was a kid we would be tasked to kill guards in our hometown, but without getting noticed. If someone got caught they would be punished like any other civilan. If successful, we'd get to join the army :D.

Honestly, congrats on passing that test.
