2 Rochard, since you are a former marine, here is demonstrative show of Russian marines. This is the same sort of circus show as VDV did on the video above. The only difference is that those are marines (also non-professional amateur soldiers), not airborne:
Note that all bottles they break by a head are also real beer bottles, not like those fake ones made of sugar that used in action movies. Breaking of a bottle is an important part of training. It teaches soldiers to tolerate pain and overcome fear.
P.S. Maybe those guys are not as cool as VDV, but they are also quite effective. When Somalia pirates have captured Russian tanker in 2010, the black berets (marines) have stormed it, saved the crew are killed all pirates (no one has returned back to his home). The marines had no loses in that operation. Was it brutal? Yes of course, but those were pirates who kill people for fun, and it would be a very stupid idea to just let them go.
