Which special force has the most rigorous training ?

Let me preface this by saying that regardless of branch, I appreciate the dedication and sacrifice of all soldiers.
Is there an agreed upon decision on which division has the most difficult training and selection process
-Marines
-Rangers
-Navy Seals
-Green Berets
-Air Force Special Tactics Officers
If there are any other units (I am not familiar with military jargon) that I am not mentioning, please state who they are.
ETA: No, this isnt a career thread.

You should just go on ahead and get that Pizza Hut Manager's job and call it a day.
I'm pretty sure the OT is tired of giving you career advice.

SEALS or Delta; at that level it's difficult to say which is harder

I wish someone would help find you a job so you won't have as much time to post.

Talking to guys who have been through the training, BUDS (SEAL training) is more physically demanding and OTC (Delta training) is more long term grueling and mentally challenging.

Hammer Unit 6. Behind every top military operation since the country's inception.
Their missions are so highly classified that at retirement they have the choice of having their memories wiped...or death.

They're all different and they are all hard in different ways.
I don't think Delta has much of a weeding out process. They select primarily from the 75th Ranger Regt. If you get asked to join you're already an experienced badass.
SF(Green Berets) draw mostly from the regular infantry and may have the toughest training pipeline. They have to specialize and a certain area and be extremely familiar with all the others plus learn a foreign language. Takes up to two years and may be the most difficult.
Marine MARSOC is virtually a mirror image of SF
SEALs are probably the toughest physically.
Air Force CCTs and PJs are near SEALs physically but also have to learn either to be Air Traffic Controllers or highly skilled medics. I've heard that the Air Force actually send their trainees to Air Traffic Controller school or Medic school first because you can teach anyone to shoot and be in top physical shape if they're disciplined enough. The other schools actually require a lot of brainpower.
