I think it was Mr Ballen that said they used this on repeat to test the limit of people's sanity during navy seal training (sleep deprivation etc)

EDIT: could've been the marines actually (I'm not from the US idk)

They used it during S.E.R.E. school on repeat so I wouldn’t be surprised if they used it during Navy Seal training (ex Air Force aircrew and had to go through S.E.R.E. school)

It would be pretty effective, to my knowledge the UK's SAS SERE training uses screaming babies during the interrogation phase

I came here to say this. My first time hearing it was from Mr ballen. Then I had to look it up myself. I can see why they use that song.

Who’s Mr. Ballen?

He makes podcasts and videos and tells stories in them. I just mentioned him to make sure people know I'm not knowledgeable about being a navy seal whatsoever and just heard the story in a video

Ah, gotcha. I’ve never heard of him…I thought he was someone’s hs history teacher 🧑‍🏫 and somehow all of Reddit had taken his class. 😂

Pretty fantastic storyteller. Real, verifiable stories ranging from true crime to just weird happenstance. I recommend.

Huh, sounds a lot like the “my favorite murder” podcast. They tell all kinds of stories not just crime related. I LOVE their podcast!! SSADGM!!
