Who is the most elite the Parachute Regiment or the Royal Marines Commando?

I am sure the Paras or Commandos with have their own opinion however, we do not have this sort of hierarchy. You join a role because it suits what you are interested in and meets your strengths. For example I joined the Royal Logistic Corps because I love variety and am really organised. Both roles would offer you exciting roles. The RM Commandos are Royal Navy though so my advice would be to join the Paras!!! :-)

Thanks for your question.

As Georgina said above everyone will have their opinions but in essence, one is infantry in the army and one is infantry in the Royal Navy. They have different roles but essentially do exactly the same job as any other infantry regiment when on operations.
