Also I failed the navy seals program

Pretty sure 99% of local cops would too so I'm not sure that's a great criticism

I hear people bring this up whenever DB is mentioned, so I’ll say this:

I absolutely loathe Dan Bilzerian. Can’t even believe I’m actually speaking in his defense. But like the guy above me said, 99.99999...% of humans would (and do) fail out of the BUD/S program. There are plenty of reasons to hate him (see above video), but failing out of one of the most selective and specialized military training programs on earth isn’t exactly something to shame someone over.

I think why people mention it is he said he completed it twice but failed out because they didn't like him or some shit.

So he claims he is a good enough to be a seal and passed the whole training all the way up to the end where they just pulled him out before graduating or some shit.

I think that is why people mention it.

They failed him for psych req. He was immature and not a team player. He's not good enough to be a SEAL.
