So there's this show I just recently got into. I'll just post a short version of Wikipedia's discription: Historical warriors are pitted against each other to see who can outlast the other. Each warrior brings weapons from the particular group they are associated with. Modern fighters and experts on said weapons present the strengths, and weaknesses of each arsenal, including real tests of the weapons. The data collected is then fed into a computer to determine the average winner of one thousand battles. After the winner is determined, a mock battle takes place to showcase how each weapon is used in a real battle situation, and to determine which combatant is the "deadliest warrior". I couldn't find a trailer so here is the ending fight of one of the episodes: So far they've done: Apache vs. Gladiator spartan vs. ninja pirate vs. knight yakuza vs. mafia shaolin monk vs. maori warrior william wallace vs shaka zulu ira vs. taliban Anyone else like this show or find it interesting? I kinda love it

I loved every episode EXCEPT for the pirate vs knight episode... the knight should have won and this is why:
See, if they had actually calculated the misfire rate into the simulation the result would have been totally different, secondly when testing the blunderbuss they ONLY tested it against the plate armour a knight will usually have chainmail AND folds of linen lining behind that which should have been plenty enough to stop the blunderbuss even if it got through the breastplate.

I remember seeing that last year with my ex. I love it. It's really intriguing.

I totally agree with Dad (lol). I was really angry when the knights lost. That was bull. And it's great to see other girl fans!

^^Lol! I like that it's long. It builds the anticipation for me. But it does seem a little too long sometimes.
