All language subtitles for Deadliest warrior s03e05 Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot.eng

We're here to look at two
of the deadliest dictators

To ever walk
the face of the planet--

Saddam hussein
and his republican guard...

[shouts in native language]

Versus pol pot
and the khmer rouge.

[electricity buzzing]
[grunting]

Let's just start off
with saddam.

He was known
as the butcher of baghdad.

This guy--he tortured.
He maimed.

He used chemical weapons.

Whatever it took
to quell rebellions,

That's what saddam hussein
would do.

When you look at pol pot,

This guy used a small
communist guerrilla force

Called the khmer rouge.

And they go on and take out
the government in cambodia,

Killing millions of people.

You've got an established army
versus a guerrilla group.

But very similar payloads,
as far as weapons are concerned.

I think it's gonna be
a close fight.

With regards to the diagnostic
and statistical manual

Of mental disorders,
these guys are psychopaths,

Which means
there is no remorse.

That's pretty explosive.

These are sadistic bastards.

This kind of brutality--
off the scale.

Saddam hussein,

Iraqi tyrant
whose republican guard

Slaughtered not only
his enemies, but his own people,

Versus pol pot,

The cambodian dictator

Whose khmer rouge guerrillas
committed genocide

On a quarter
of the country's population.

It's dictator versus dictator,

As the late 20th century's
most genocidal madmen

Turn their tools of oppression
on each other.

To find out,
the history of war

And modern science collide,

As former navy seal
richard "mack" machowicz

Dives deep into the tactics

Of the warriors
behind the weapons.

To unlock new data
on arsenals of the past.

And e.R. Physician armand dorian
dissects the trauma...

And reveals the physical
and psychological traits

That shaped
these legends of war.

This groundbreaking data

Will be paired
with historical research

And entered into an all-new
digital combat engine.

Two legendary combatants
will be resurrected.

History will be rewritten.

But only one
will be crowned...

Welcome to the fight club,

Where our experts will uncover
new historical insights

To determine
who is deadliest--

Saddam hussein
and his iraqi republican guard,

Who crushed any political
opposition from 1979 to 2003,

Or p pot and his
khmer rouge guerrillas,

Who toppled the cambodian
government in 1975.

I want to set the tone
right off the bat.

We are not celebrating
these guys.

No.

But by actually seeing
what these guys have done

And recognizing the way
they did it,

It may prevent future massacres,
future genocides.

To me, it's the science
of violence.

You have to understand
the chaos of violence

In order to fight back
against these guys.

You're talking about evil.

If we don't see it
and call it for what it is,

Then we'll never get
off our butts

And do anything about evil
when we do see it.

Completely agreed, mack.
We have to investigate this.

Let me give you the tale
of the tape, okay,

About these two warriors
and their military.

Saddam hussein, 6'2",
215 pounds--big guy.

Pol pot, 5'9",
194 pounds.

The khmer rouge
average age--16.

Republican guard
average age--25.

That age difference
is very, very important.

A 16-year-old with this type
of invincibility--

It's unfathomable.

When you're talking
about motivation, doc,

Saddam hussein
had this vision in his head.

He was going to re-create
the babylonian empire

With him at the head.

Versus pol pot--

And he has a beautiful vision
once he gets in power.

"I want to eradicate
the past

And create a past
of my own liking."

This is his plan--
"I'm gonna kill off anyone

"who knows anything
about the past.

"hey, you've read a book?
You're dead.

"you're an intellectual?
You're dead.

You wear glasses?
You're dead."

That's this guy
in a nutshell.

Okay, so let's move on
to the weapons now.

And for the first time
on deadliest warrior,

We're gonna use multiple weapons
on a single test

To see how it plays out
in an urban-combat environment.

We're gonna initiate
this assault with grenades,

Move on
to light machine guns,

And then take control
of a building with handguns.

I think what we have here
is an opportunity

To truly confront evil
by exploring--

What did they do?
What kind of tools did they use?

And how did they convince
other human beings

To behave this way?

This dictator death match
will be determined

By the all-new
digital combat engine

Created by robert daly--
a former green beret

And designer of more than
30 military-based video games,

Including
the deadliest warrior game.

The engine will process
more than 100 "x" factors--

Critical intangibles
assigned values

Based on extensive
historical research

On each warrior's lives,
tactics,

And psychological profiles.

The most important
"x" factor for me

Is the psyological health
of these two leaders.

No, absolutely. You have
to evaluate these troops,

Because they are all
antisocial

Because they're being
driven so hard.

And how they're going
to be affected long term

Is something that I think
we also need to take

Into consideration.

Providing
firsthand knowledge

Of the butcher of baghdad's
weapons and tactics

Is sabah khodada, a former
general in the iraqi army.

After refusing an order

To shell an innocent
iraqi village in 1996,

Sabah came under investigation
by saddam's ba'ath party,

Who had him arrested
for insubordination.

[speaking native language]

Sabah eventually escaped
all the way to the u.S.,

Where he helped
american authorities

Discover saddam in 2003.

Wielding the weapons

That saddam hussein
and his republican guard

Took into battle
is calvin bondley.

Having faced combat
with insurgents in iraq,

He brings
firsthand experience

Into what makes
these warriors so lethal.

The republican guard
is the military

Who took over kuwait
in five hours.

They believe
in what ey're doing.

Revealing exclusive historical
insight into saddam's regime

Is rick francona,

Former air force officer
and cia agent

Who served
as general norman schwarzkopf's

Advisory expert
in the first gulf war.

At age 20, saddam hussein

Tries to assassinate
the then-president of iraq

By machine-gunning a car
as the motorcade goes by.

It fails.
He's wounded in the leg.

And he seeks refuge in egypt.

The assassination attempt
made saddam a legend

In the ranks
of the ba'ath party.

Taking over the country
in 1979,

He launched
an eight-year war

Against neighboring iran.

During the conflict,

He ordered a chemical-weapons
attack on his own people--

Ethnic kurds he considered
rebels for aligning with iran.

It had never been used
on a battlefield before,

Making the iraqis
the only people in the world

To have ever used nerve gas
on a battlefield.

The perfect match for
saddam hussein's extreme tactics

In putting down rebellions

Is pol pot,

Whose khmer rouge guerillas

Were notorious for overthrowing
the cambodian military.

Handling the weapons
for the khmer rouge

Is jonathan khan.

As a former
u.S. Army marksman,

His in-depth weapons expertise

Is coupled with a deep knowledge
of the guerilla regime

That killed his grandparents.

The khmer rouge is a band
of guerilla fighters.

Guerilla tactics will always
beat a traditional army.

Sharing
his personal experiences

At the hands of pol pot and
the khmer rouge is kilong ung,

A cambodian genocide survivor

Who watched the khmer rouge
kill or starve

50 members
of his extended family.

Khmer rouge began
with a handful of students--

Got together, conspired
against the government.

And then eventually
they form a formidable force.

This formidable force
of guerilla fighters,

Led by pol pot,

Defeated cambodian
government troops

And took over
the country in 1975

And then tried to bring
their vision

Of the perfect society
into reality.

Pol pot was trying
to create a utopia

Where everybody was equal.

To do that,
he has to bring people

Back to the peasants' level
of the guerilla fighters

That started the revolution
with them.

They would get rid of
the upper class, the educated.

There were mass graves
all over the country.

It was enough to call them
the killing fields.

We got a guerilla group

Going up against
an established military, okay?

So to make
your data set complete,

We've got to run
some weapons tests.

From saddam hussein's
invasions of iran and kuwait

To pol pot's siege

On the cambodian capital
of phnom penh,

Both warriors seized cities

With urban-warfare tactics
that combined grenades,

Light machine guns,
and side arms.

The first test
will determine

How this entire arsenal
of weapons performs

In a three-phase attack
on an enemy-occupied building.

The republican guard
will initiate their assault

With the iraqi military's
rgd-5 grenade.

It explodes
with four ounces of tnt

And 350 pieces of shrapnel.

It's soviet-designed,

Anti-personnel
fragmentation grenade.

Once you pull the pin out,

It takes about three
to four seconds to explode.

The republican guard
will then move in with the rpk--

A light machine gun
with a 40-round magazine.

This is a primary weapon
for their infantry units.

It can be fired standing,
moving, crouched,

Or--or even
in the prone position.

The republican guard
will finish

With the browning
hi-power pistol--

The premier iraqi army sidearm.

[speaking native language]

He actually carried
a browning hi-power

With an inscription stamped
into the slide.

It said, "a gift from
the president, saddam hussein."

Wow. Okay, well,
let's grab these weapons

And head out to the range.

The first of three phases
will assess the damage potential

Of the grenades
against four targets.

We've got one guard
on the inside of the guard post,

Three on the outside.

So I'll be able to measure
the fragmentation

On those foam targets,
plus the percussion effects,

With a 38-g shock patch

And a 100-g shock patch
on the chest.

If the blast trips
the 38-g patch,

The target is disoriented.

If it triggers the 100-g patch,
it's dead.

The second phase will measure
the damage and accuracy

Of the light machine guns,

As the experts advance
to take out five targets

In the front of the building.

For the final phase,

The experts will move
inside the building

To shoot the last two targets
with their pistols.

On 3, 2, 1!

Throw the grenade!

Ooh-hoo!

[gunfire]

First fire--
don't blow all your rounds.

Okay, he's in position.

Oh, that was a good hit.

That's dead-center--
chest.

[gunfire]

Nice.
Good job. Good job.

He's making good time.
There you go.

Sounds like a double tap.

Done!

Okay, that's two minutes
and five seconds.

Let's go check out the damage.

The two targets within five
feet of the detonation point

Were killed instantly.

The team reviews
the target ten feet away.

From primary blast injury,
this 100-g, that's lethal.

This guy's dead.

The grenade damage
is far less severe

On the other side
of the guard shack.

This is the target
that was at 15 feet.

Neither of these shock patches
are tripped,

And we're now starting to get
outside the range

For primary blast injury
of that weapon.

But look where
he delivered the round.

[laughs]

Dead mid-face--
this guy is dead.

Guys, for me, this is all
about the initiative "x" factor.

When you're able to take
the initiative,

That's a big advantage--if you
can catch guys by surprise.

What was it like
throwing the rgd-5?

Man, I'm telling you,
four ounce of tnt--

You just feel the power of it.

I mean, look at him.
He's still in shock.

Not anymore.
You shot him in the face.

Okay, this is why
we throw flash bangs in a room

Before we go in.

You catch people by surprise.

You get their heads down.
You get them panicked.

Okay, so let's check out
phase two of this assault--

More of the rpk damage.

[bees buzzing]

Unfortunately,
our decomposing bodies here

Have been taken over
with bees.

But what can we see
from here?

They all have more than
one round up front.

This guy's got riddled through
his neck, through his chest.

The one behind him--I see
at least three through his chest

And two through his neck.

So all of these
are instant kills.

What was it like
firing the rpk, calvin?

It's lighter,
so I could run with it fast.

And it took me actually
four to five seconds to reload.

It's pretty fast.

[speaking native language]

He said there
is nothing like the rpk

To lay down the fire

And then finish off
who you didn't with the pistol.

Now, when you're talking
about the pistol,

You're talking
about phase three.

You have to muster
a certain level of intensity

When going up
and taking a pistol

And bringing it
into a guy's face.

That's up close and personal.

That's what we call
killer instinct,

And that
is one of the factors

That we'll plug
into the sim as well.

Exactly.
I think that really speaks

To the "x" factor
of training,

And that's a factor
that we're gonna have to look at

In this particular matchup.

Well, you know,
saddam was the president

Of an oil-rich country.

This was a real army.

This wasn't
a guerrilla movement.

So he had training areas,

And he was able to import
quality weapons.

Obviously,
it's very impressive.

However, hold your judgment,

Because the version
that jonathan's using--

It will be impressive, too.

The light machine gun
by the khmer rouge

Is the weapon of choice,
and I'll show you.

Coming up,
pol pot and the khmer rouge

Launch their counterattack.

And later, the experts
unleash their machine guns

In a motorcade ambush.

Saddam hussein...

Pol pot...

In a battle
of the 20th century's

Most brutal dictators.

Who is deadliest?

♪

♪

♪

♪

♪

Saddam hussein,
the butcher of baghdad

Who killed nearly two million
people during his 24-year rule,

Is battling pol pot,

Whose widespread
political executions

And policies of starvation

Filled more
than 20,000 mass graves.

Under the leadership
of pol pot,

The khmer rouge
created 150 prisons

To torture and execute people.

They would bury people alive.

They would put plastic bag
over a person's head

And let the person die.

They killed two million people
at the end.

That is over a quarter
of the population.

Saddam hussein's arsenal
of a grenade,

Light machine gun,
and pistol

Has been tested
in a three-phase assault,

Simulating
the urban-warfare tactics

Used by the two warriors.

Now pol pot's khmer rouge
will launch its attack

With weapons primarily supplied
by communist china,

Starting with
the chinese stick grenade--

A descendant of a grenade

The germans used
in world war ii.

This grenade, gentlemen,

Has six ounces
of explosive filler.

That's 50% more
than a saddam grenade.

And it has a sleeve
on the end.

Pol pot would actually
put knives, nails,

Barbed wire into this sleeve,

Giving it more
of a killing effect.

The khmer rouge
will continue the assault

With their standard issue rpd
light machine gun--

A soviet-built weapon

That delivers death
in 100-round bursts.

You can fire 650 rounds
per minute

From a drum that contains
100 rounds.

It's slightly heavier
than saddam's machine gun,

But you will have
heavier casualties.

The khmer rouge
will conclude the attack,

Clearing the building

With its 9-millimeter tokarev
tt-33 pistol--

An eight-round
semiautomatic weapon

That executed cambodians
by the thousands.

To test the accuracy and damage
potential of pol pot's arsenal

In a three-phase assault,

Jonathan will try to take out
all 11 targets

Under calvin's time
of two minutes, five seconds.

On 3, 2, 1!

Throw the grenade!

All: Whoa!

That was a larger explosion.

Now, that's a sound
I remember.

[gunfire]

There we go.

[laughs]

Love it, love it, love it.

Nice transition.

[laughing]
I love it.

That's good.
There's a hit.

All: Whoa.
You see that?

There you go.
Oh, oh, oh.

Look at him.
He's just booking it, man.

Nice!
Two minutes, two seconds!

That's three seconds
separating these guys.

The 100-g shock patch
is tripped.

That's lethal.

It's getting inside that hut,

Amplifying the pressure wave
and increasing its duration.

The shrapnel here
is really significant.

Every area
you see a frayed piece,

That's something
going into the hut.

The target five feet
from the detonation point

Is also an instant kill.

The team examines the target
ten feet out.

As far as primary blast injury
is concerned,

100-g shock patch is tripped.

So, from ten feet out,
it's lethal.

This is the target that's
15 feet away from the explosion.

No trip on
the 100-g shock patch.

So, as far as primary blast
injury's concerned,

Nothing here.

But our 38-g shock patch
is tripped.

So this guy did get shaken up,
but not lethal.

It's not an instant kill,

But you can get
pulmonary contusion--

Blood filling into your lungs
just from the bruise

And obviouslsly ruptured eardru,
whirling sensation, vertigo.

As soon as his head
is rocked,

He is a sitting duck, doc,

And what's important
is a seizing that initiative,

And that's the "x" factor
we're looking at.

And if you're looking
at just the tiniest bit more

Of that disorientation
in this moment,

That's a bigger advantage.

That's gonna have to figure
into the sim.

The saddam hussein grenade
rolls like a baseball.

You don't know where
it's going to end up,

Whereas
with the stick grenade,

Aim it, throw it,
it stays there.

Look at the results.

But how did the rpd perform
in the second phase?

Jonathan, great work--

Multiple rounds
in every, single target.

Some of these targets
have a huge cavity.

You basically carved out
an entire section of the body.

That means
your accuracy's on target,

And you're able to keep chunking
away at the same tissue.

Instant kill all around.

And you know what?

These foam targets
aren't biofidelic, okay?

But we've never seen
a machine gun cut them in half.

And the fact that you ran it
three seconds faster--

Nice job.

This weapon is superior

Compared to
the saddam hussein weapon--

100 rounds compared to 40.

While he's reloading,
I'm killing.

What about the tokarev?

Accurate, eight rounds,

Very simple weapon to use,
very powerful.

[speaking native language]

They fought a war
with the iranians.

The iranians
had better weapons.

The iraqis
had better training.

That's what he believes
was their edge.

The team has more tests
for the light machine guns,

But the grenades and sidearms
are ready for judgment.

First up--the grenades.

Saddam's rgd-5 or pol pot's
chinese stick grenade--

Which packs enough punch
to give its warrior the edge?

I'm gonna go
with the chinese stick grenade.

I just think there's
a little bit more blast,

A little more
concussive force.

So that if I do open up
after that attack,

I have a guy
who's a little disoriented,

Put in a bad position.

I agree with you, mack.

The only thing I don't like
about the chinese stick grenade

Is that it has that handle.

Despite the fact
that it's got two more ounces

Of high explosive in it,

I think you'd be able
to carry less of them.

And so for that,
I like the rgd-5.

The one thing that I realize
the stick provides

Is lack of roll.

When that thing falls,

There's going to be
a minimal amount of bounce,

Which we do see
with the round ball.

I agree with doc,
just for the functionality--

It's not going to be rolling
all over the place--

And the explosive power.

Hey, you can even add a sleeve
with nasty nails,

And I've seen
that type of trauma.

It's horrendous.

So if I got to compare
the two,

My edge would go
to the stick grenade.

Edge--pol pot
and the khmer ro+e.

Saddam's browning hi-power
or pol pot's tokarev--

Whose pistol
outgunned the other?

For me, this is
all about magazine capacity.

If I have more rounds
with the browning hi-power

Than I do with the tokarev,

I'm gonna go with
the browning hi-power, period.

If I had to give one advantage
to the tokarev

Is I like its low profile.

I think that
would be something

You could easily slip
in your belt.

The reason it's low profile
is it carries less rounds.

Fair enough.

You know,
when in doubt, overload.

Edge--saddam hussein
and the republican guard.

Coming up,

The light machine gun duel
continues its carnage.

And later, saddam hussein's
republican guard

And pol pot's khmer rouge

Finally go head-to-head

To find out which dictatorship
is deadliest.

Two of history's
most brutal dictators

Ruled at the end
of the 20th century,

But over 4,000 miles apart.

If they actually squared off
in battle, who would win--

Pol pot, a former schoolteacher
turned cambodian rebel

Who led the deadliest revolution
in asian history,

Or saddam hussein,

Who struck terror
in the iraqi people

By brutally killing
an average of 200 every day

During
his quarter-century rule?

Saddam used torture
against his own people.

Think of the most brutal
torture methods there are.

Saddam hussein employed
all of them.

Initially,
they used electricity.

They also would pull out
the fingernails--

The chemical bath.

That's how it started out,
and it got worse and worse.

Our first test examined both
warriors' light machine guns,

Attacking
an enemy-occupied building.

But the republican guard
and khmer rouge

Also used these weapons

To exterminate
political opponents.

Okay, guys, we know
that pol pot and saddam

Used these light machine guns

To coordinate ambushes
on threats to their regime.

The scenario--a moving car
is stopped by an obstacle.

Each expert
will fire 80 rounds

To see how quickly
and accurately

They can first take out
the driver

And then advance to exterminate
the target in the backseat.

Jonathan, you'll be up first,
with pol pot's rpd.

Let's get the car moving!

3, 2, 1!

Ambush!

Nice.

Make sure he's down.

That's effective fire
right there.

There you go.

Nice, nice.
Now it's time to move.

Okay, he's moving.
Keep moving.

Smooth bursts,
smooth bursts.

There you go. Smooth is fast.
There you go.

Smooth is fast.

Oh-ho-ho!
That's a hit.

That's a hit.

There you go.

Nice.

Oh-ho-ho, yeah!

Time!
46 seconds, jonathan.

It took that long?
[chuckles]

I mean, you've completely
riddled the body.

It's the classic,
best way to kill somebody

Is shooting them
from the side.

And with just
one of these rounds,

You would be able to do that.

All right,
what we're seeing here--

I mean, this body
looks like it's ice cream,

And the bullets
were the scooper,

And it just scooped out
his chest and his belly

And has thrown it all around.

It just explodes.
This is intimidating.

If you walk alongside this
and see your leader

Has his chest on the floor,
caved out,

That's an intimidation factor

That we got to factor
into the sim.

Even though
the khmer rouge's machine gun

Is heavier than saddam's,

When you're firing bursts,
you don't feel the weight.

This is definitely a weapon
you don't want to mess with.

When the war in cambodia
happened, I was just a boy.

There was a time I heard
the exact same sound.

And when I got there,

I saw bloods and guts
just like this.

I had a couple
of khmer rouge soldiers

That put similar guns
to my head.

They were about
12 or 13 years old.

When you have somebody
who's just hitting puberty

And then you give 'em
a weapon like this,

They're gonna feel invincible.

And then you add
the post-traumatic stress

Of doing what they did
at that age.

All of these things
have to factor in

For psychological health
in the sim.

Can calvin match the accuracy
of pol pot's rpd

With saddam's rpk
in less than 46 seconds?

Let's get the car moving.

On 3, 2, 1!

Take 'em out!

There you go.
Nice.

Oh, chewing that car up.

[laughs]

Wow.

Moving in now.

Change of magazine?
I didn't see it.

Yeah, that was silly.

[shouting in native language]

[laughing]
yeah!

Time!

59 seconds!

Nice work.

I think that magazine change
cost you a little bit.

Wow, tore the head off.

We know that this
is not human tissue,

But if you get that many rounds
right into the neck,

That is gonna decapitate
somebody.

Okay, guys, let's take a look
at the primary target.

Ay-yi-yi.

Okay, first and foremost,
there's a monstrous entry wound.

This thing is just tearing
its way through the body.

To be able to actually see
this type of carnage

That both
of these weapons caused

Have to be factored in
as "x" factors

With regards to intimidation.

Calvin, I saw you do
a magazine change on the go.

What was going on there?

I already know I--
I damage them,

And I'm just on my way
to make it finish.

I mean, I've carried
this weapon.

I've used this weapon.

It is a little bit heavy
compared to an assault rifle,

But this is laying down
a tremendous volume of fire.

[speaking native language]

So they--they train
on these kinds of operations,

And a lot of the cars
that they would be going against

Are armored.

So they would be trying to go
for what they believe to be

The weakest part,
and that would be the window.

So again, training.

The rpk and rpd

Both proved their accuracy
and devastating damage.

So which finer details of
each machine gun's functionality

Will give its warrior
the edge?

Listen, if you don't get this
rpk magazine in perfectly,

You're gonna be dancing around
a little bit.

So if you come off
a little bit of an angle,

You come in a little bit here,
you're gonna have some issues.

When you're talking
about a five-man unit

Against a five-man unit,

Where any little advantage

Is going to make a gigantic
difference on the battlefield,

Me not having to change
my magazine in that moment,

That's where pol pot
and the khmer rouge

Are going to get
a significant advantage.

You know, the rpk is lighter,
and it may decrease fatigue.

So from a doctor's standpoint,
I like the rpk.

I like the fact
that it's lighter.

I don't like the fact
that you've got to reload it.

My edge--
pol pot's rpd.

For long-range weapons,
edge--pol pot

And the khmer rouge.

Coming up,
the combat goes hand-to-hand,

As experts strike
with their close-quarter blades.

Saddam hussein
and his republican guard

Or pol pot
and his khmer rouge--

Who will be crowned
the deadliest warrior?

Saddam hussein...

The iraqi dictator
whose republican guard

Crushed kurdish and
shia rebellions in the 1990s,

Versus pol pot,
the communist tyrant

Whose khmer rouge guerillas
overran the cambodian military

Before enslaving millions
in the 1970s.

Two sadistic rulers known
for killing their own people

Now face off
to kill each other.

When the fighting got
up close and personal,

Both sides often unsheathed
their bladed weapons.

Saddam's republican guard
carried the combat knife--

A powerful killing device
wielded by hand

Or at the end of a gun.

Pol pot slashes back
with a blade

Modeled after the machete,
the cane knife--

A farming tool
turned executioner's weapon.

This cane knife has a blade
of 12 to 24 inches in length,

And it's
three millimeters thick.

You can use this blade
to cut the jungle undergrowth

In one moment,

And the next moment
behead a cambodian soldier.

Let's test it out.

Now, we've seen
how you've used

Other weapons in your arsenal
to actually take a building.

Now you're
inside that building

Going after
your primary target.

To assess these blades' speed
and penetration damage,

Each expert
will kick open the door

And attack a guard represented
by a section of bovine torso

Mimicking human tissue
and bone.

They then must react
to a second beef target

Closing in on a zip line.

To increase
the accuracy of our simulator,

I'll be strapping this
three-dimensional accelerometer

To the blade
to get impact speed,

And the doc
will be assessing the damage.

On 3, 2, 1!

Boot the door!

Rah!

[grunting]

Come on!

That'll work.
[chuckles]

Two targets,
two instant kills.

We've got one, two, three,
four clean strikes.

All those strikes,
without even me looking

At each strike individually,
is a kill.

You got a speed of about 40
miles per hour at impact, okay?

And that's actually quite fast

For the other weapons
that we've seen on this show.

If you can accurately deliver
that blade into a human body,

Which is not nearly as thick,

I'm telling you, you're gonna
drop that guy quickly,

Which allows you to move on
and take on that second target.

Jonathan is up next

With the khmer rouge's
cane knife.

On 3, 2, 1!

Boot it!

Oh!

Argh!

Oh, let's check
this out, guys.

I got 45 miles per hour off
the speed of this weapon, okay?

This was your second strike.

You get past soft tissue,
muscle here,

And then right here you get
stuck at the fascia and bone.

Jonathan,
I think what happened

Was you got caught
between two different targets,

And then you decided
to come back to this.

And if you don't have
a big commitment

And a great load behind it,

You get that draw cut,
and it's not nearly as clean.

That's exactly
what we're seeing, mack.

Let's go look
at the second target.

You're going through
soft tissue, muscle,

Belly of the muscle,

But it does not penetrate
past that.

This is a classic difference

Between a thrusting
and a slashing weapon.

You can kill with a slash,
but you've got to be committed

In order to get into that chest
cavity, and if you don't,

A lot blood, a lot of pain,
but not an instant kill.

When you're talking
about the person

Who commits to the target,

You're talking
about the khmer rouge here.

There's no hesitation
for them.

You know, you talk
about young soldiers.

They grew up with this stuff.

This is the extended arm
for them,

So every time when they use it,
they committed.

What I think, honestly,

You have a longer blade than me,
but it's too slow.

You got to swing
a lot with it.

This is used in iraq
by the farmers.

It's a farm tool.
It's not a weapon.

This is a weapon.

So which blade
gets the edge?

Listen, there's
a lot more flexibility

With regards to the combat knife
as a battlefield tool.

When you're talking
about the cane knife,

You do need some room to operate
with that weapon.

If you're in a tight,
closed, confined space,

It's gonna be much harder
to load up that big swing

And deliver that great result.

The edge for me

Goes to the republican guard's
combat knife.

For close-range weapons,

Edge--saddam hussein
and his republican guard.

The arsenals have been tested,

And the results
are neck and neck.

Up next,
the climactic final battle--

Saddam hussein,
the butcher of baghdad,

Whose atrocities
included chemical warfare,

Versus pol pot,
the cambodian warlord

Who starved and slaughtered

A quarter
of his country's citizens.

Who is deadliest?

♪

♪

♪

♪

♪

Saddam hussein and his mighty
iraqi republican guard army,

Cambodia's pol pot and his
ruthless khmer rouge rebels--

Combined, their kurdish
and cambodian genocides

Took an estimated
five million lives.

But who would win
a head-to-head battle

Between two of the most savage
mass murderers

Of the 20th century?

Our team has tested
and analyzed the weapons

These two warriors will bring
to the final battle.

In explosives, the republican
guard's rgd-5 grenade

Was overpowered by
the khmer rouge's stick grenade.

In close-range weapons,

The khmer rouge's cane knife
was cut down

By the republican guard's
combat knife.

In medium-range weapons,

The khmer rouge's
tokarev tt-33

Was outdueled
by the republican guard's

Browning hi-power pistol.

In long-range weapons,

The republican guard's rpk
was gunned down

By the khmer rouge's
rpd light machine gun.

All the weapons data has been
turned over to robert daly

And plugged
into the digital combat engine.

His team of enneers

Has completed
their historical research

On more than 100 "x" factors.

We evaluate these intangibles,
like audacity,

Battlefield experience,
logistics.

And our historians
quantify it

Into a numeric value
of 1 to 100.

For me, it's all about
the "x" factor of training

In this particular matchup,

Because saddam hussein
and the republican guard

Had oil money.

And if you got oil money,
you can have people,

Buildings, and infrastructure
to train them.

That makes all the difference
in the world.

Yeah, geoff, training--

We ended up rating saddam
at a 70

Versus pol pot at a 53.

With regards
to psychological health,

Both of these guys have

Dsm-4 antisocial-behavior
classification,

Added with paranoid traits.

Both these guys
are completely insane.

Saddam hussein's
psychological health,

We rated it as 46
versus pol pot's 27.

This is really due to the fact
that pol pot--

He's doing something
that I've never seen happen

In human history before.

He's trying to re-create history
in his own image,

Killing millions of people
to do this.

Robert, let's talk
about battlefield effectiveness.

You need to be able
to initiate your attack.

And you have to have
killer instinct

To see it all the way through
until you own that battle.

On the initiative side,

Pol pot had a slight advantage
at an 83 versus saddam's 74.

On the last "x" factor, we're
talking about killer instinct.

Now, this is a tough one,
but pol pot had the advantage,

'cause his troops would go in
and make that final kill,

Because that's what
they were taught to do

At such a young age.

And we gave pol pot's troops
an 89 versus saddam's 86.

Okay, rob, you've got
the weapons data.

We've assigned values
to all the "x" factors.

Let's run the sim.

The digital combat engine
will run 5,000 battles

Between saddam hussein

And four republican guard
soldiers

Versus pol pot
and four khmer rouge guerillas.

Aah!
[machine gun fire]

[machine gun fire]

Aah!

[machine gun fire]

Aah!

Aah!

[tires squealing]

[shouting in native language]

Aah! Gah!

Uhh!

Gah!
Uhh!

[speaking native language]

[shouts in native language]

[speaking native language]

Saddam ended up
winning this matchup,

With 2,828 victories,

Versus pol pot,
with only 2,172 victories.

In the head-to-head
weapons comparison,

Saddam hussein's
rpk light machine gun,

Browning hi-power pistol,
and combat knife

Proved more effective.

But it was his
overwhelming advantage

In the "x" factor of training
that sealed the victory.

Saddam hussein
and his republican guard

Are really an organization that
is set up to put down rebels.

When you look at pol pot
and the khmer rouge,

They are rebels.

So that's why saddam
ended up winning.

They're crazy people,

And I hate giving
crazy people attention.

But sometimes you need to know
who the crazy people are

So you can stop them
before they start causing

This level of trouble.
