"SURVIVING THE CUT" follows the best of the best the US military has to offer as they fight for special operations' most elite status. From the producers of Discovery Channel's hit special TWO WEEKS IN HELL, each episode goes to hell and back as select candidates are pushed to the brink to weed out the weak. This series reveals how elite schools select and shape human weapons to be used in the most classified military operations in the world.
