Deadliest Warrior	comment	Gladiators versus Apaches. Pirates versus Knights. Ninjas versus Spartans. Samurai versus Vikings. Zombies versus Spacem... Uh... Never mind.Being that Humans Are Warriors, there are thousands of different cultures, each with their own philosophy of combat, and each with their own ideal weapons. They are legendary. They are powerful. And they leave only one question to be answered:Who would win in a fight?This is the most basic argument to rock message boards all across the internet, and rarely will you see an Off-Topic section on a website without this somewhere. Someone had the bright idea that this would make a good documentary — and it turns out they were right.Much like the MythBusters (except drenched in gallons of blood), these guys approach age-old curiosities from the standpoint of the scientific method. Fighting styles are brought in, demonstrated, and boiled down into data. Weapons are examined by experts in very tightly-controlled tests. Descendants and masters argue their case about their strengths and decrying the others' weaknesses.All of the data is then combined into one-thousand simulated fights (5,000 as of Season 3), and from there a single result is determined and recreated in a dramatic re-enacting. All of this can be seen Wednesdays at 10 PM EST on Spike TV, or on the internet at their official site under Full Episodes, should you live in Canada and the USAnote or use a Proxy located in the USA.Had a successful run, becoming the number 1 show on Spike after three seasons, though due to budget and production cost reasons a fourth season was not greenlit.A video game has now been released, where players will be able to make their own fights between most of the Season 1 ancient warriors and a couple of Season 2's. A sequel has followed as well, with the various historical domain characters from the show being the playable warriors. Chivalry: Medieval Warfare has also announced an expansion to its game made with Deadliest Warrior.Plans for a movie based on the series have been announced.

In the Musketeer vs Ming Warrior, the Musketeers defeat the Ming Warriors with over 670 kills. Season three has Joan of Arc, Napoleon Bonaparte, William the Conquerer (Yes, he was king of England, but he was from Normandy) and the French Foreign Legion. Napoleon lost to George Washington, Joan defeated William, and the Legion lost to the Gurkhas. The French Foreign Legion were a sort of Double Subversion. They were depicted as extremely badass, but it was also explained that they weren't necessarily made up of Frenchmen, including the former member they brought on as an weapons expert, who was Australian.

Deadliest Warrior / int_1c5002bc	comment	The Stoic: Several warriors are portrayed as such: The Yakuza are portrayed as being trained to show no pain and to show no emotion in the face of enemies. Or when cutting off their own fingers in the face of their own superiors. The Spetsnaz's reputation for toughness is demonstrated by one of the soldiers, who allows a martial arts black belt to punch him several times in the stomach—to no effect. This is actually a basic part of the average modern day martial art. It involves hardening your abdominal muscles temporarily right before a punch lands. The Shaolin Monk, in the final showdown. Contrasted very nicely with the Maori warrior. Though their experts were almost the complete opposites; one only need to watch the shaolin going completely crazy during the emei piercers demonstration while the maori watched calmly, nodding their heads.

Deadliest Warrior / int_1f963842	type	Bloodier and Gorier
Deadliest Warrior / int_1f963842	comment	Bloodier and Gorier: Season 2 so far surpasses Season 1 in red goop. A few examples include a head exploding in both the Back For Blood special and the SWAT vs. GSG-9 simulation, and filling a pig carcass with blood to test the Bowie Knife in Jesse James vs Al Capone. They used to just leave the pigs as they were. In Season 2, they FILL the pig with fake blood. Just for fun. The friggin' BOWIE KNIFE. Geoffrey was friggin' SPEECHLESS. The whole "tear the dummy's heart out" thing is probably the winner here, though. Because they tore the dummy's heart out. Katars. "Everything that was inside, is now outside." In Somali Pirate vs. MedellÃn Cartel, the targets for the long range firearms were rigged with tannarite canisters that would explode in a spectacular fashion if they were hit. Scientifically speaking here was no reason for the dummies to explode into a gory heap other than it looking bloody awesome. Testing what exactly happened when Vlad the Impaler lived up to the nickname with a ballistic gel dummy and a lubed spike.

Deadliest Warrior / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: In the beginning of Theodore Roosevelt vs. Lawrence of Arabia, Armand and Mach bring up how Lawrence could run a mile in under 5 minutes. This shifts the X-Factor of Endurance in his favor, with Lawrence getting an 88 and Theodore getting a 71. This occurs as well in Genghis Khan vs. Hannibal; during Dorian's traditional "tale of the tape" at the beginning of each episode, he brings up Genghis' protein-oriented diet and Hannibal's diet, mainly focused on carbohydrates. At the end of the episode, Hannibal's diet gives him the advantage in the X-Factor of Physicality, receiving an 81 compared to Genghis Khan's 76. With Season 3's X-Factors, this trope occurs a lot; another example being in Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot, when Mack's usual warrior analysis after Armand's gives us this tidbit about the latter.

Deadliest Warrior / int_23b523ce	type	Shocking Moments
Deadliest Warrior / int_23b523ce	comment	ShockingMoments:invoked Very high within the show itself, since the hosts gape and gasp after just about every weapon demonstration. Shaolin Monk versus Maori Warrior arguably has the biggest moment in the series when the tiny dude takes the Emei piercers to a dummy's head. The smallest person to appear on the show goes to town on the poor piece of ballistics gel, putting over a dozen stabs into the face and skull, including a kick, and finally delivers a hit with enough force to remove most of the head. At one point near the beginning, he stabs into both eyes and pulls them out, leaving the eyes on the other side of the piercers for the rest of the fight. Geiger's reaction? This was even brought up in the aftermath, with several comments essentially going "What the fuck, man? Seriously. What the FUCK?" He explains that, after one of the Maori experts declared the weapons little more than knitting needles, he decided to go all-out to give a full demonstration of what the Emei piercers could do. Rob Roy, the Navy SEALs representative, puts the Shaolin Monk representative to shame with his own moment: going absolutely insane with his tactical knife on a gel dummy. He stabs it in the gut and neck Over Nine Thousand times, ends up cutting the head and arm off, and then sticks his knife where the head used to be. He also slashed and stabbed the face apart. There's a good reason Max is left standing stunned, mouth agape in shock at Rob's brutality. He was trying to outdo the similar antics of the Ka-Bar wielding Israeli commando, who had started with a lethal neck strike then continued on for disemboweling. Also, if you pay attention to the knife just before Rob sticks it in the neck stump, the tip has been broken off of the knife. That is a COLD STEEL knife, which are billed as "the strongest knives in the world", which was broken by using it for it's purpose (albeit in a hilariously over-the-top manner). Holy Shit indeed.

Deadliest Warrior / int_2bdae2ae	type	Awesome, but Impractical
Deadliest Warrior / int_2bdae2ae	comment	Awesome, but Impractical: Occasionally invoked. Some flashier weapons lose to simpler weapons due to their impracticality. The Sicilian Mafia reps have this opinion of the Yakuza's nunchaku. Their preferred wooden instrument of destruction is the all-American baseball bat. The best example the show has to offer is probably the Rajput's aara, a thin, flexible, whip-like sword and one of the more esoteric weapons ever featured on the show. It got no kills in the simulation and a performance so pathetic it's almost totally unprecedented. The Roman Centurion countered with his own cool looking but ultimately kind of stupid weapon in the Scorpion bolt-thrower, which was described as "machine gun like" by the Centurion experts but actually has a rate of fire of roughly one bolt per minute. It was "machine gun like" in how it was used by the Roman Legion, not in how the weapon actually functioned. The Scorpions were set up in emplacements along the line to fire on oncoming infantry. It wasn't a weapon for hitting individual soldiers, it was more of a suppression weapon to ward off infantry advances, like machine gun emplacements. The Ballistic Knife wielded by the Spetnaz. Awesome, but you have to retrieve the knife once you fired it....

The place of origin for some of the warriors fit too; one Russian-based warrior has appeared per season (Spetznaz, the KGB, and Ivan the Terrible), as well as the U.S. military following this trend (the Green Berets, Navy SEALs, and Army Rangers). Native Americans have been following this trend too (season 1's Apache, season 2's Comanche, and season 3's Crazy Horse).

In Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot, Pol Pot dispatches Saddam's last soldier from behind with his cane knife. The same thing later happens to Pol Pot's final troop, being stabbed by Saddam and his combat knife. This is also HernÃ¡n CortÃ©s' finishing move in the second video game; he knocks the enemy down with his close range sword, offers a hand to help them back up, then stabs them with his dagger as he pulls them. In Al Capone vs. Jesse James, Frank James pulls this on a limping member of the Capone Gang, stabbing him in the back with his bowie knife as the others move ahead.

Ivan the Terrible and HernÃ¡n CortÃ©s take it up a notch and do it on horseback.

The majority of the weapons prove to be surprisingly effective, but entrenching tools actually have a long history of use as a hand-to-hand weapon—many WWI soldiers preferred them over bayonets because they did not stick into the enemy. Entrenching tools have been used quite a bit in combat, often in desparation. They have their shape for many reasons, smacking skulls being one of them. It's not so much improbable as desperate. When testing scattershot, the alternate ammo Washington would have used for his cannon, his experts explain that it consisted of nails, chains, and other small metal objects.

Deadliest Warrior / int_7e6c0522	comment	Off with His Head!: The Scottish claymore is notable for this, chopping off 3 heads at once in its test. The Celtic Longsword was also meant to take heads. Geoffrey yells this trope when testing the Zande Warrior's makrakka. It does. The Aztec Jaguar's macuahuitl is shown to execute this, being capable of decapitating a stallion in 3 hits. And there's also the Celt's longsword, which sliced a gel torso's head in half. Finally, we have the CIA's garrote, which consists of nothing more than just 2 small sticks and some piano wire. Even that is enough to slice open a torso's throat and decapitate it. Now we have Navy SEALs' Rob Roy and his recon knife, a 3-inch blade that he uses to decapitate a ballistic gel torso. In a sneak peek at the first episode of Season 3, a dummy is decapitated by Napoleon's cannon. The ball that did it had already taken out another dummy in front. Attila the Hun's finisher in the game Deadliest Warrior: Legends involves him ripping off his opponent's head...with his bare hands. In Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot, Calvin Bondley, an expert for the former dictator, uses the RPK machine gun to shoot the head of a test dummy in a simulated ambush. In Ivan the Terrible vs. HernÃ¡n CortÃ©s, Vladimir Orlov, Russian special forces trainer and one of Ivan's experts, utilized the tsar's sablia (Russian saber) on horseback to decapitate a gel dummy wearing HernÃ¡n's steel armor.

Double points for Calling Your Attacks. Would have been nice, though, if they'd shown the arrows would be likely to pierce chain mail as well, the Yumi being a longbow and all. In Ming Warrior vs. Musketeer, this actually costs the Ming representative—in a test specifically to see how his weapon handles against Musketeer armor, he ignores this and starts firing at other areas after the first shot deflects off harmlessly, and gets called on it by the Musketeer experts. This probably was not actually intentional. The weapon he was testing was shown to be very inaccurate in the test. The neck shot just above the armor was probably just luck rather than skill.

Deadliest Warrior / int_885a5be7	comment	Suffer the Slings: Whenever ancient warriors aren't using bows and arrows, they usually have this. They rarely work well; virtually every time a warrior has brought a sling to the table, it failed to impress. One rare occasion happened in Aztec Jaguar vs. Zande Warrior, where the Aztec tematlatl sling got the edge over the Zande botto and pima bow and arrow. However, in the simulation result, the botto and pima still got more than four times as many kills as the sling. This was actually addressed in the Persian Immortals vs. Celts Aftermath, in which one comment flat-out asked why slings kept getting brought onto the show if they never worked well. Amusingly enough, it was the Persian expert who jumped to respond to the complaint, explaining that, since slings are small, lightweight, can be easily stashed on someone's person, and have effectively infinite ammunition, there are really no downsides to having one available in combat. Even if they don't impress in tests, in the right hands and the right situation, they can still potentially turn the tide of a battle.

Weapons are often tested against targets that are braced for impact to transfer all of the weapon's force into the target, creating a more impressive effect. Fragile materials such as ceramic are often used for targets of lighter weapons so that they can have something to break or shatter. Experts of the opposite side will occasionally gripe that the opponents' test makes the weapon look better than it is.

You have Guerillas (e.g. Ninja and Apache) who can't get into a direct fight and have to use their agility to survive, Beserkers (e.g. Pirate and Viking) who have a deadly offense, but less in the way of defense and Champions (e.g. Knight and Spartan) who can dish out a lot of damage and take it, but won't move very quickly.

Deadliest Warrior / int_a211f531	comment	Shields Are Useless: Toyed with. While shields can proved to be incredibly useful in a fight, the show's testing process generally concludes that large weapons would cut or break through shields and often damage the arm behind them with a full-force swing. The offensive capacities of shields varied depending on the episode: In Viking versus Samurai, the Viking shield scores the fewest amount of kills in the episode. Although a lot of people have criticized the show for it's faulty representation of the Viking's use of his shield. In William Wallace versus Shaka Zulu, William Wallace's Targe shield demonstrates a killer puncturing capability. On the other hand, Shaka's Isihlangu shield didn't stand a chance against Wallace's claymore. In Spartan versus Ninja, the Spartan shield gets the most kills of any weapon in the episode, even more than the Spartan's spear. In the Back For Blood special, the Samurai's kanabo was seen to have enough power to severely dent the Spartan's shield. However, it was still strong enough to withstand the blows, allowing the Spartan to get the upper hand. It should be noted, however, that a direct kanabo shot would likely have broken the Spartan's arm. This was ignored in the simulation because it's more awesome that way. In Jaguar vs. Zande, they test the jaguar warrior's throwing spear on the Zande's shield, which pierces it easily. Later, during the simulation, not only does the Jaguar's spear pierce the shield, he knocks a huge chunk of it off with his club.

This is then shown again in slow motion. Made worse by the fact that the doctor said that you would still be feeling it, still remember it, and would hemorrhage to death in so much agony. In Spartan versus Ninja, the ninja demonstrate Black Eggs, which would put crushed glass into the eye. However, in the final showdown, the Spartan takes the glass full-on, looks shocked for a couple seconds, then goes on fighting like nothing happened. Annoying Glass-In-The-Eye? In Green Beret versus Spetsnaz, the Spetsnaz sniper "misses" the nose he's aiming for and puts a round right through the dummy's eye. In Shaolin Monk versus Maori Warrior, the Shaolin representative goes right for the eyes with the Emei Daggers. In IRA versus Taliban, the IRA representative slingshots a lead pellet into a skull's eyesocket. Imagine that smashing into a real, squishy eye. In SWAT versus GSG-9, both sniper rifles put rounds through a test dummy's eyes, similar to the Spetsnaz example above. In Ming Warrior versus Musketeer, the Musketeer expert pierces both of the gel-torso's eyes with both the rapier and main gauche. The Zulu has blinding powder spat into the target's face, which does not impress the judges much. In Joan of Arc vs. William the Conqueror, one of Joan's French knights gets shot in the eye with a crossbow bolt by one of William's soldiers. In Crazy Horse vs. Pancho Villa, one of Pancho Villa's rebels gets shot through the eye with a revolver wielded by Crazy Horse.

Another one in the Back For Blood special. It's from an IRA combatant this time, and he gets his head blown off by a Spetnaz operative seconds after he makes this expression. In the Nazi Waffen-SS vs. Viet Cong fight, this is seen on the face of a Waffen-SS soldier who runs out of bullets seconds before he is shot dead by a Viet Cong. From the VC experts themselves after they witnessed the Flammenwerfer test. In the Somali Pirate vs. MedellÃn Cartel fight, this appears on the face of the remaining Cartel member who locks himself out the Cartel base, when the last Pirate shoots an RPG at him. In the Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot battle, Pol Pot has this expression just before Saddam shoots him in the temple with a pistol.

The same thing happens in Ivan the Terrible vs. HernÃ¡n CortÃ©s; while HernÃ¡n CortÃ©s was still considered crazy, the X-Factor of Psychological Health went in his favor, with him scoring a 72 compared to Ivan's 37. Came into play to a lesser extent between Washington vs. Napoleon, when a number of X-Factors put in Washington's favor involved how Napoleon became more egotistical and prone to overreaching in his later years. In the Aftermath, the Napoleon expect even conceded that Washington would have had an advantage against Napoleon as he was later in life, but asserted that he might not have fared as well against the younger, more stable man Napoleon was earlier on in his career.

Deadliest Warrior / int_bf698238	comment	When All You Have Is a Hammerâ€¦: Equipment is usually graded solely on how much damage it can do, rather than alternate utilities such as parrying, disarming, or disabling opponents. The main complaint among critics also seems to be there's no impartial way compare fighting styles and tactics to each other and that differences in the mindset and tactics of warriors of different cultures and time periods don't seem to be factored in, leaving the battles seeming more like "Deadliest Arsenal" than "Deadliest Warrior". As of Season 3, however, more emphasis is put on X-Factors and weapons strategies. Played with in Ivan vs. Cortes. During the "kill an opponent with your sword from horseback" test, the Ivan team specialist is using a saber that can only slash from horseback, whereas the Cortes team specialist has the choice of stabbing or slashing. This works works against the Cortes team's sword, as it turns out it's really hard to stab with a sword from horseback, more-so under pressure. Thus, Ivan's saber with its keep-slashing-away hammer-mentality was given the edge.

Deadliest Warrior / int_bfaff026	comment	Arrogant Kung-Fu Guy: Usually representatives will forget this is a "What If" entertainment show and act like it's an actual life-or-death contests. See Serious Business below. The SWAT vs GSG9 seems to subvert this. Both sides engage in good-natured trash-talk, but nothing serious—likely because both are essentially on the same side. As one of the GSG9 experts said, as long as the threat is neutralized and any innocents involved are safe, he doesn't care if it's SWAT or GSG9 getting the job done. Pretty much the same deal with US Navy SEALs vs. Israeli Commandos. One of the Israeli experts states that there is a lot of respect between the two sides, especially since in the real world, they are allies and they fight the same enemies. Furthermore, the show even shows the two sides' experts shaking hands to hammer home the point. It's further reinforced in the Aftermath episode, where both experts repeatedly emphasize the great respect and camaraderie between the SEALS and Israeli special forces. One of the more unfriendly instances of banter was the Jesse James vs. Al Capone. At the end of the pistol whip demonstration one of the Capone guys is actually cursing about "how stupid" a pistol whip is... and then starts swearing up a storm in the Aftermath. Especially notable since the Aftermath specials usually have the experts act far more respectful towards their opponents, and even coming to their defense against viewer questions and complaints. The Al Capone expert is one of the few (if not the only) expert to remain just as belligerent in the Aftermath as he was in the episode itself. Spetsnaz vs. Green Berets. As one of the Green Berets points out "They were my enemy, I was trained to kill them.". They throw around a lot of insults, even Flipping the Bird at each other. And in once instance, one of the Green Berets even admits "Those Russian guys... I'm pretty scared of them." Banter back and forth who is better is normal in the show, but in this episode, it stood out remarkably. Except it was later revealed in the "Aftermath" following that the footage of the two teams was deliberately edited to make them appear more hostile than they were.

Deadliest Warrior / int_ca3a6dbd	type	Informed Ability
Deadliest Warrior / int_ca3a6dbd	comment	Informed Ability / Informed Flaw: Many of the dramatizations tend to conflict with the episode's findings; in many cases, weapons found to perform exceedingly well play only bit parts in the fight, and final blows are dealt by weapons that tests had deemed ineffective. Season 3 seems to be better about this, though, with test results and other findings directly playing into the dramatizations: In Joan of Arc vs. William the Conqueror, the extremely long reload time of the crossbow used by Joan gets one of her soldiers killed, and the one-on-one fight between Joan and William was visibly decided by Joan's superior armor, just as shown in tests. In Theodore Roosevelt vs. Alexander of Arabia, Lawrence at one point deploys the "Phantom Army" strategy his experts mentioned to great effect, and Roosevelt's Gatling gun was a key part in the fight, playing to it's advantage against Lawrence's counterpart and it's contribution to Roosevelt's final score.

In CIA vs. KGB, the female Soviet agent booby-traps the dead drop in case the CIA recover it. The CIA who kills her and gets the dead drop then opens it and is killed by the explosion.

Most of the warriors that appear in the opening and the DVD covers are actually the losers of their matches An example that involves having watched previous episodes for the trope to be played straight: in Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot, Jonathon Khan, a weapons expert for the latter dictator, claimed that guerrilla tactics always beat organized armies; those who watched Nazi Waffen-SS vs. Viet Cong and Spetsnaz vs. IRA know that his statement is wrong and would expect Pol Pot lost to Saddam, which he does.

Not the typical use of the trope, but one of the Zande's weapons has a penis shaped blade, and another is essentially a curved steel penis. The Nazi Waffen-SS' Schrapnellmine a.k.a. the Bouncing Betty mine, was shown to be capable of using its metal ball bearings to tear through human groins. One of the KGB experts makes a similar claim with the explosive dead drop spike.

Deadliest Warrior / int_ef3d1b57	comment	Technician Versus Performer: One debate that tends to come up with a lot of older guns (and occasionally something like a cannon or crossbow) tends to boil down to: This weapon performs better (better accuracy, more powerful) but is technically inferior (often it involved a longer reload time or a tendency to misfire.)

Deadliest Warrior / int_f2877d9e	comment	The Aztec Jaguar's macuahuitl is shown to execute this, being capable of decapitating a stallion in 3 hits. And there's also the Celt's longsword, which sliced a gel torso's head in half. Finally, we have the CIA's garrote, which consists of nothing more than just 2 small sticks and some piano wire. Even that is enough to slice open a torso's throat and decapitate it.

Deadliest Warrior / int_f2c895f	comment	Your Terrorists Are Our Freedom Fighters: During the 'IRA vs Taliban' episode, the Irish experts try to portray the IRA like this. To be expected, given as one of them was a nephew of Michael Collins, who all but started the IRA. While this show has been broadcast on TV in Great Britain, it is notable that episodes featuring Irish terrorists have yet to be seen.

As well, in Zande Warrior vs. Aztec Jaguar, prior to every one of their weapons tests, post-test in some of them, and in the final interview, the Zande experts would constantly chant "NOM NOM!
