Being very fit and would upper body strength or anything like that be an advantage, I'm very fit at the minute, and a pretty strong swimmer, I'm 16 and I know you have to be 18 to join as a diver so I will have 2 years to get prepared

best job in the world if you get through basic but you also need a strong mind also to cope with all they throw at you
had 30 yrs of doing it and enjoyed every minute
keep at the fitness lots of mud runs get the legs strong
also just remember its not all nice clear water
you will see some very nasty sights but life goes on
good luck

Shaven legs, a good mirror, some expensive body lotion, hair-drier, subscription to GQ, plenty of hair-gel, some Lycra and the inability to tie knots would be a good start.

Yes; as a RN diver you will see some nasty sights (some would say horrific) but hey - if you want good-looking women you should raise your ambitions and join the Royal Marines.

Also practice mincing around in a track suit all the time. It will help you during your time at bomb teams.
