Deadliest Warrior was fucking awesome and Time for My Stories should do an episode on it. Comparing two totally different weapons or having totally different tests to compare similar weapons and then dudes who clearly rock just make shit up from watching high speed footage of a pig being sliced with a schimitar vs. how many wooden targets a dude can take out with a flail in 40 seconds. Then they make actors pretend to fight and act like its science. It was the ultimate dudes rock show
My favorite was the one where they compared brass knuckles to a pistol whip. Like no shit the pistol whip is going to have more force, you've got more leverage and a heavy gun to hit someone with, but the point of brass knuckles is that they're concealable in a way that a .357 revolver isn't. But then to make things even worse they had two different guys do the tests, so they weren't even pretending to be scientific about it.

Oh my fucking god...I didn't realize how much I needed to hear Matt reacting to the Napoleon vs. George Washington episode until now.
