[QUOTE=Aurain;21790743]The SAS are the model of special forces and would school the SEALs.[/QUOTE] That's not really applicable in todays age. Special forces around the world joint train and exchange experience and ideas so much that trying to say "oh these guys are the best" just doesn't gel. Besides, comparisons like that are ridiculous, too many variables. Reality is if a SEAL patrol came up against a SAS patrol, there would be no "winner", there'd probably be an intense exchange of gunfire for about 5 seconds followed by both groups running away in opposite directions.
[QUOTE=lolwutdude;21742673]aside of dumb massive fanboys posing as experts, this show is pretty fun, especially when we see historic/ancient weapons going against gel torsos.[/QUOTE] I can understand that but when they dress up and pretend to fight it looks like a couple of nerds cosplaying and it's just awful. The 300 narrator voice also gets old after a while.

[editline]10:49AM[/editline] [QUOTE=SomeGuest;21790848]In this thread: People who are easily offended and raged by a fun TV show.[/QUOTE] I'm outraged by all of Spike TV actually. Everything about them.
Latest episode was pretty good. Still retarded if you want to look at it "scientifically" but still fun to watch. Laughed out loud at the Zande's throwing weapon. Design straight from FP if you'd have asked me
[QUOTE=MasterBlaster;21748245]I want to see Gengis Kahn v.s. James Tiberius Kirk[/QUOTE] You can, theres an episode where he and Abe Lincon take on him and a few others.
The way they test stuff is bullshit, but I like watching pigs getting sliced in half.
The latest ep was quite entertaining.
Oh man that last episode was hilarious, penis on throwing knife and that other knife was just a big curved penis, the amount of fanboyism is getting bigger every episode, like that mayan guy "Who comes to battle with a piece of shit like that?"
Only seen like 2 episodes but it seems to be EXTREMELY biased. Even after seeing a clear demonstration about how their weapon is going to fail they still say its better.
SAS v. GSG9 was cool, so was Shaka Zulu v. William's Warriors
This show is trolling us all :saddowns:
[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;21731898]Despite how stupid some of the comparisons are this show is completely awesome.[/QUOTE] I also wondered about how they make the weapon comparisons. A ball and chain going up against a crossbow. :downs: [editline]12:03PM[/editline] Also, the test areas are completely fucked over. I let's shoot a pig with a shotgun! Wait, this shotgun, will get different results if we [caps]PUT IT IN A REAL LIFE SITUATION WITH 4 HOSTILES!!!!!!![/caps] Yes! Same results! :downs: [editline]12:28PM[/editline] 999 post
I raged so hard at one comparison. Balista vs Mongolian Axe. How in fucking hell do you come up with this stupid an idea?
ahhahaha hahahaha 18th century cowboys beat capone's tommy machine gun gang. ahahahaha this show is so bad
Spike has horrible loading time. Can someone give me links for this show?
I raged to a new level when Alexander the Great lost to Attila the Hun. HE'S CALLED ALEXANDER "THE GREAT" FOR A REASON YOU JACKASSES.
Man this show sucks because The guy I like lost to some guy I don't like :(
I'm gonna kill somebody if Viet Cong win tonight...
I only watch this show for entertainment purposes. And because I love watching balistics gel get torn up :v:
What was that thing where it was professional wrestlers seeing how powerful their kicks and shit were?
Fight science.
I personally dislike this show, because all they do is pit brute force against stealth and intelligence, and stealth and intelligence always wins, so it's actually easy to predict who will win.
I find this show completely stupid, they're basically comparing apples to oranges without the scientific method. Yeah, lets compare two completely different things with completely different situations, oh A beats B because it can shoot through glass and B blew up a washing machine. Not to mention the insane amounts of fanboyism.
[QUOTE=lolwutdude;21998109]ahhahaha hahahaha 18th century cowboys beat capone's tommy machine gun gang. ahahahaha this show is so bad[/QUOTE] In reality most of the hits Al Capones gang did were close range with a sawed off shotgun. One of al's guys would just walk into a salon and shoot up the place with a shotgun or tommy gun and take out everyone before anyone could pull their six shooters.
My favorite episode i've seen of this was the Mafia Vs. The Yakuza, mainly the part where the guy hit the dummy with the bat.

Only worth watching for the little mockup at the end and even thats ridiculous.
The typical episode of Deadliest Warrior involves the computer nerd actor typing random shit into a computer, a few roleplaying nerds swinging and hitting fake people, and a predictable cinematic at the end.
[QUOTE=Orkel;22033068]Don't watch it for the science Watch it for the gel torso destruction and the awesome cinematic at the end[/QUOTE] Yeah, I realized that after watching it, the gel torso destruction gets kinda boring after one episode.
[QUOTE=The Winner;22033817]The typical episode of Deadliest Warrior involves the computer nerd actor typing random shit into a computer, a few roleplaying nerds swinging and hitting fake people, and a predictable cinematic at the end.[/QUOTE] The ones about ancient peoples are pretty good, the modern fighters/weapons just kind of make it boring. Like seriously knife with a cock on it/m4a1
This show is fun to watch, but sometimes it angers me a bit. And they tend to leave out important weapons sometimes, or make ridiculous comparisons (winchester vs hand grenade). Why are they using the MP28 instead of the MP40 or StG44? And why haven't they taken the feared and notorious MG42 into consideration? [editline]10:41PM[/editline] They also downplayed the Waffen-SS's brutality a bit. I've heard stories about them beating people to death with entrenchment tools, or even strangling people to death with barbed wire.
