1
00:00:05,390 --> 00:00:09,490
The Spartan. The battlefield butcher
from ancient Greece.

2
00:00:10,610 --> 00:00:11,660
A ninja.

3
00:00:12,810 --> 00:00:15,490
The legendary master of death from
Japan.

4
00:00:16,010 --> 00:00:18,790
Who is Deadman?

5
00:00:20,690 --> 00:00:25,369
To find out, our world -class fighters
are testing history's most lethal

6
00:00:25,370 --> 00:00:26,420
weapons.

7
00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:35,179
Using 21st century science, we'll see
what happens when the two warriors go

8
00:00:35,180 --> 00:00:36,059
-to -toe.

9
00:00:36,060 --> 00:00:39,200
No rules, no safety, no mercy.

10
00:00:41,020 --> 00:00:47,939
It's a duel to the death to decide who
is the deadliest

11
00:00:47,940 --> 00:00:48,990
warrior.

12
00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:55,179
In Los Angeles, California, we've
created a high -tech fight club with

13
00:00:55,180 --> 00:00:56,440
scientists,

14
00:00:57,390 --> 00:01:01,750
Martial arts experts and lots and lots
of weapons.

15
00:01:03,530 --> 00:01:08,270
It's all here to create a virtual battle
between two legendary warriors.

16
00:01:08,890 --> 00:01:15,409
A ninja, history's most famous hitman,
versus a

17
00:01:15,410 --> 00:01:18,070
Spartan, an armored killing machine.

18
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:28,419
To find out just how deadly ninja and
Spartans really are, we'll test their

19
00:01:28,420 --> 00:01:32,999
weapons and fighting techniques on high
-tech dummies, stand -ins for human

20
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,050
victims.

21
00:01:36,020 --> 00:01:40,619
Scientist and karate black belt Jeff
Damoline wires these dummies to

22
00:01:40,620 --> 00:01:42,060
that collect the injury data.

23
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:46,799
For example, this dummy has three linear
accelerometers inside the head, and

24
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:49,700
from the numbers that we received based
on the impact...

25
00:01:50,540 --> 00:01:53,250
We can tell whether this person would
have died or not.

26
00:01:54,380 --> 00:01:58,220
Enter Max Geiger, a 21 -year -old
computer whiz.

27
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,019
He'll take the data from our weapons
test and enter it into a battle

28
00:02:03,020 --> 00:02:04,070
program.

29
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:09,219
I'm inputting 20 different factors,
which are going to determine things like

30
00:02:09,220 --> 00:02:12,520
attack power, defense strength, range,
accuracy.

31
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,899
Based on this data, the simulator will
stage a true -to -life fight to the

32
00:02:17,900 --> 00:02:18,950
death.

33
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,020
The winner will be the deadliest
warrior.

34
00:02:22,780 --> 00:02:28,119
These two warriors never met in history,
but today they will inside this

35
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:29,170
computer.

36
00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,699
Weapons specialist Jeremy Dunn and
former Green Beret Barry Jacobson will

37
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:36,660
demonstrate the Spartan Way War.

38
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:43,170
Spartans weren't otters. They weren't
artists. They did nothing but fight.

39
00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:48,030
Thomas Spartan Boy was eight years old.
He was trained to do one thing.

40
00:02:48,380 --> 00:02:49,460
That killed the enemy.

41
00:02:50,920 --> 00:02:56,099
Spartans were the most feared fighters
of their time. But one battle made them

42
00:02:56,100 --> 00:02:57,150
legends.

43
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,479
In Thermopylae Pass, 300 Spartans faced
off against an army of half a million

44
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:03,530
Persians.

45
00:03:05,460 --> 00:03:09,360
Thermopylae was a rearguard action.
Think of it as the Greek Alamo.

46
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:11,440
These men knew they were going to die.

47
00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:16,160
But a Spartan will never die without a
fight.

48
00:03:30,140 --> 00:03:35,139
In the three days of Thermopylae, the
Spartans likely killed 100 ,000 to 200

49
00:03:35,140 --> 00:03:36,280
,000 Persians.

50
00:03:38,820 --> 00:03:42,070
Spartans were the toughest warriors
history has ever produced.

51
00:03:42,460 --> 00:03:44,560
Our Spartan experts are confident.

52
00:03:45,070 --> 00:03:49,249
But so are the team that will
demonstrate the weapons and techniques

53
00:03:49,250 --> 00:03:50,300
ninjas.

54
00:03:51,510 --> 00:03:56,570
Luke Klein is a master at ninjutsu, the
secret art of the ninja.

55
00:03:57,610 --> 00:04:02,089
Karate instructor Michael Lair is a
black belt level at four different

56
00:04:02,090 --> 00:04:03,140
arts.

57
00:04:03,550 --> 00:04:07,289
So to truly understand the strength of
the ninja, you had to see how they

58
00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:08,340
evolved.

59
00:04:08,341 --> 00:04:11,909
They didn't start out as warriors. They
started out as farmers, villagers,

60
00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:13,470
peasants, the lowest of the low.

61
00:04:13,471 --> 00:04:15,879
Like most people, they thought
independent.

62
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:19,599
But at the time, Japan was ruled by
feudal warlords and the military class

63
00:04:19,600 --> 00:04:20,650
samurai.

64
00:04:21,779 --> 00:04:25,520
Very tough, very well -trained fighters.

65
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,940
In a fair fight, the farmers and
villagers really didn't stand much of a

66
00:04:30,340 --> 00:04:33,050
So when they had to fight, they just
didn't fight fair.

67
00:04:43,841 --> 00:04:51,269
The ninja's strength flows from his
agility, his mobility, his incredible

68
00:04:51,270 --> 00:04:54,870
thought process that allows him to do
what other people never expect.

69
00:04:55,770 --> 00:04:58,240
Distract you, look over here, take out
your legs.

70
00:04:59,350 --> 00:05:03,810
Distract you up here, powder to your
eyes. Ninjas were the first special ops.

71
00:05:04,050 --> 00:05:05,550
They were the masters of death.

72
00:05:06,970 --> 00:05:13,189
So how would history's most legendary
killer fare against the fight some

73
00:05:13,190 --> 00:05:15,890
consider history's most perfect warrior?

74
00:05:16,940 --> 00:05:18,500
I'm giving the edge to the ninja.

75
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:24,440
Spartan's not going to be as used to
fighting by himself as a ninja would be.

76
00:05:24,620 --> 00:05:30,579
And so as long as the ninja can get by
the spear, I give the advantage to the

77
00:05:30,580 --> 00:05:31,630
ninja.

78
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:37,840
The spear is a Spartan's primary weapon.
Eight feet of iron -tipped retaliation.

79
00:05:41,340 --> 00:05:44,980
This is a deadly weapon. It pierces
armor. It pierces body parts.

80
00:05:45,500 --> 00:05:49,139
It leaves a deadly puncture wound. It
also can be used with the edge as a

81
00:05:49,140 --> 00:05:50,520
-sharp cutting tool as well.

82
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:56,659
To measure the striking force of the
spear, our team attach high -tech fences

83
00:05:56,660 --> 00:05:59,760
wrist, spear, and our ninja standing.

84
00:06:00,800 --> 00:06:01,850
Take him down.

85
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:10,499
This red line is the acceleration of the
spear, and when it shows

86
00:06:10,500 --> 00:06:12,840
it, it is equivalent to falling two
stories.

87
00:06:12,841 --> 00:06:17,229
So if we held the spear static on the
ground and somebody fell on it, falling

88
00:06:17,230 --> 00:06:19,760
from two stories, that's what you're
inflicting.

89
00:06:21,610 --> 00:06:26,710
As a Los Angeles ER doctor and one of
the first medics for ultimate fighting,

90
00:06:27,230 --> 00:06:30,330
Dr. Armand Dorian has seen a world of
hurt.

91
00:06:31,130 --> 00:06:35,050
He'll examine just what the Spartan
spear will do to the human body.

92
00:06:35,590 --> 00:06:40,849
We can't use these weapons on actual
human beings, so our next best bet is

93
00:06:40,850 --> 00:06:41,900
ballistic gel.

94
00:06:41,901 --> 00:06:45,609
The ballistics gel is going to give us
the same consistency that you would find

95
00:06:45,610 --> 00:06:49,989
in human tissue. We should get the same
type of resistance as the sphere goes

96
00:06:49,990 --> 00:06:52,760
through to actually see what type of
damage it would do.

97
00:06:53,630 --> 00:06:55,490
I'm now going to step away from the mic.

98
00:07:01,650 --> 00:07:05,570
There's a definite fatal blow. You have
a severe laceration. It hit the ribs,

99
00:07:05,571 --> 00:07:08,889
fractured the ribs through the lung,
broke through the heart, and you have an

100
00:07:08,890 --> 00:07:09,940
exit wound here.

101
00:07:10,010 --> 00:07:11,060
30 seconds.

102
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,800
This guy's dead. Beautiful.

103
00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:14,810
Ninja!

104
00:07:14,940 --> 00:07:16,020
Where's the ninja at?

105
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:17,640
And that's one strike.

106
00:07:20,091 --> 00:07:27,159
That's the energy from the spear. It's
moving the actual body backwards.

107
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,210
Jeez.

108
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:29,980
Well, the end story there.

109
00:07:29,981 --> 00:07:31,099
That's for sure.

110
00:07:31,100 --> 00:07:34,399
It's still sinking in. It's still
sinking in. Yeah, it's still sinking in.

111
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:35,840
I can't argue with that, man.

112
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,140
enters the spear stats into the
deadliest warrior computer program.

113
00:07:44,141 --> 00:07:48,539
This program was developed by Slytherin
Studios over in the UK, and it's taken

114
00:07:48,540 --> 00:07:52,979
them five years to build it. Based on
what I've seen so far, the Spartans are

115
00:07:52,980 --> 00:07:54,600
lot stronger than I had expected.

116
00:07:54,601 --> 00:07:57,919
When that spear hits the ninja, it's
going to go right through him.

117
00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,980
All we have to do is get within six feet
of you.

118
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:02,320
You have no armor.

119
00:08:02,660 --> 00:08:04,460
Our spear, as we showed...

120
00:08:04,461 --> 00:08:08,709
We'll just go through you like... You
mean that big flow thing that you can

121
00:08:08,710 --> 00:08:10,549
out of the way of and then blink an eye?

122
00:08:10,550 --> 00:08:14,469
Spartan Spear is just like any spear.
It's long, it's pointy at one end, and

123
00:08:14,470 --> 00:08:17,410
has a guy behind it. It's got no chance
against the ninja.

124
00:08:18,230 --> 00:08:19,430
Ninja's way too fast.

125
00:08:19,431 --> 00:08:23,669
I was giving the edge to the ninja at
first, but I'm starting to second -guess

126
00:08:23,670 --> 00:08:24,469
myself now.

127
00:08:24,470 --> 00:08:28,849
The major feeling I think that ninja has
is to get close, he has to get within

128
00:08:28,850 --> 00:08:32,678
the lethal range of the Spartan Spear. I
think that's going to be his weakness.

129
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,219
So I'm not going to lie, the Spartan's
pretty effective. He's got some nice

130
00:08:35,220 --> 00:08:38,418
moves. The ninja definitely has some
tricks up his sleeves for the Spartan.

131
00:08:38,419 --> 00:08:39,919
Things he'll never see coming.

132
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,460
Coming up, brain versus brawl.

133
00:08:48,940 --> 00:08:50,240
Screen versus power.

134
00:08:51,140 --> 00:08:54,840
Battle to determine who is that dead
Spartan.

135
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:07,280
In Southern California, we've gathered a
world -class team of doctors,

136
00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:10,480
scientists, and martial artists.

137
00:09:11,680 --> 00:09:15,120
They're all here to answer a classic
locker room question.

138
00:09:15,640 --> 00:09:18,780
If a Spartan fought a ninja, who would
win?

139
00:09:21,620 --> 00:09:26,520
When these two face off, they'll each
bring their own arsenal of deadly

140
00:09:33,959 --> 00:09:35,009
Fubukari? Oh, yeah.

141
00:09:35,840 --> 00:09:37,120
Shuriken? Yep.

142
00:09:37,460 --> 00:09:38,510
Two comma or one?

143
00:09:39,060 --> 00:09:40,110
Two. Two.

144
00:09:40,900 --> 00:09:44,739
The ninja mastered a multitude of
weapons, because if he couldn't hit you

145
00:09:44,740 --> 00:09:46,500
one, he'd hit you with another.

146
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:48,740
Ah, ninjuto.

147
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:54,019
If I can't hit you high, I'll hit you
low. If the low doesn't work, I'll come

148
00:09:54,020 --> 00:09:55,070
back high.

149
00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,600
In battle, ninjas used anything and
everything to give them an advantage.

150
00:10:04,610 --> 00:10:06,630
Spartans use just four weapons.

151
00:10:08,070 --> 00:10:12,370
The Spartan has warfare boiled down to a
very simple, very deadly method.

152
00:10:12,950 --> 00:10:14,890
He uses a javelin at long range.

153
00:10:16,230 --> 00:10:18,050
In close, he has a spear.

154
00:10:19,170 --> 00:10:23,230
He has a deadly sharp hacking weapon
called a xyphos, a short sword.

155
00:10:23,670 --> 00:10:25,250
And a shield itself is a weapon.

156
00:10:26,630 --> 00:10:30,669
Four weapons is much more effective than
ten weapons you have to worry about and

157
00:10:30,670 --> 00:10:31,720
think about.

158
00:10:33,239 --> 00:10:35,640
Spartans are deadly, but predictable.

159
00:10:36,420 --> 00:10:39,220
They're also very, very hard to kill.

160
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:41,540
The Spartan is a wall of bronze.

161
00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,779
He's got armor from head to his toe. The
only target the ninja has are the eye

162
00:10:45,780 --> 00:10:48,910
slots. Other than that, there really is
no target for the ninja.

163
00:10:48,911 --> 00:10:53,219
So the Spartan has a very pretty set of
armor, but of course the ninja were

164
00:10:53,220 --> 00:10:55,379
already accustomed to fighting armored
enemies.

165
00:10:55,380 --> 00:10:58,859
I mean, after all, they fought the
samurai, and samurai had steel plates in

166
00:10:58,860 --> 00:11:00,840
their armor, much stronger than bronze.

167
00:11:00,841 --> 00:11:03,769
But the ninja had weapons that were used
against points that weren't armed at

168
00:11:03,770 --> 00:11:06,410
all. Weak points, like the eyes.

169
00:11:07,850 --> 00:11:12,729
One of the ninja's best weapons against
armor is something a Spartan would never

170
00:11:12,730 --> 00:11:14,030
expect to see on a battle.

171
00:11:15,670 --> 00:11:18,470
Hollowed out eggs filled with crushed
glass.

172
00:11:19,350 --> 00:11:24,749
Using everyday ingredients, the ninja
created the perfect recipe for blinding

173
00:11:24,750 --> 00:11:27,550
enemy. The simple, yet most effective
tool.

174
00:11:29,610 --> 00:11:34,230
Crushing a hand, throwing it to samurai,
they had no chance.

175
00:11:35,150 --> 00:11:39,589
The use of black eggs began rumors that
ninjas could disappear in a cloud of

176
00:11:39,590 --> 00:11:40,640
dust.

177
00:11:41,830 --> 00:11:47,029
To test their effectiveness in battle,
our scientists set up a high -speed

178
00:11:47,030 --> 00:11:50,070
camera and a Spartan victim.

179
00:11:51,030 --> 00:11:55,409
We're going to track the black egg and
see just how much glass gets into the

180
00:11:55,410 --> 00:11:56,460
Spartan's eyes.

181
00:11:57,680 --> 00:11:59,200
Let's get him suited up. Okay.

182
00:12:00,420 --> 00:12:01,470
This is him?

183
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:02,550
Yeah.

184
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:08,460
All right.

185
00:12:16,020 --> 00:12:20,020
Spartan helmet is no defense against the
ninja's crushed glass.

186
00:12:21,620 --> 00:12:24,380
Whoa, that is full coverage on both
eyes.

187
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:25,690
Whoa.

188
00:12:25,691 --> 00:12:28,799
It's going to be brutal. It's definitely
going to affect him in the simulation.

189
00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:32,439
Think about that. Ground glass straight
in your sockets. It would get worse with

190
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,879
every blink, too, because you're slowly
grinding those glass shards into the

191
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,740
cornea. One step closer to the kill.

192
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:39,040
Take his morale down.

193
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:40,450
Absolutely.

194
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:44,619
If you can actually get glass in the
eye, which is on the cornea, it's

195
00:12:44,620 --> 00:12:48,540
devastating. The amount of pain is
excruciating. Your vision becomes

196
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:52,010
And it's not something that you can get
rid of easily.

197
00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:53,330
But glass.

198
00:12:53,500 --> 00:12:55,730
wasn't the only substance in the black
eggs.

199
00:12:56,280 --> 00:13:00,160
Ninjas also filled them with
concentrated liquid made from chili

200
00:13:11,700 --> 00:13:13,160
Splash damage, man.

201
00:13:13,820 --> 00:13:16,120
That's the world's first pepper spray.

202
00:13:16,121 --> 00:13:19,759
Obviously, your eye is one of the most
sensitive parts of your body, and pepper

203
00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,380
to your eye is extremely painful.

204
00:13:21,381 --> 00:13:24,839
It's not what you want if you're going
to be fighting somebody.

205
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:30,019
What the ninja egg actually does is it
sets the Spartan up for a death blow

206
00:13:30,020 --> 00:13:31,039
the ninja.

207
00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:35,480
I mean, you get that splatter on top of
an enemy's eye socket. Stuff leaks in,

208
00:13:35,560 --> 00:13:36,880
starts getting back there.

209
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,400
Intense, severe burning sensation.

210
00:13:39,401 --> 00:13:42,479
I mean, the ninja's going to win the
battle hands down. You know, it's just a

211
00:13:42,480 --> 00:13:43,530
matter of time.

212
00:13:44,900 --> 00:13:46,480
Spots and team disagrees.

213
00:13:47,260 --> 00:13:48,310
That's it. Perfect.

214
00:13:48,460 --> 00:13:52,130
A Spartan was used to pain. He spent his
entire life in pain and discomfort.

215
00:13:53,100 --> 00:13:57,900
His whole training was oriented to make
him hard, to make him inured to pain.

216
00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:02,600
Glass in his eyes, sure, it inflicts
some pain, but it won't stop him.

217
00:14:07,580 --> 00:14:09,440
Spartans trained the way they fought.

218
00:14:10,680 --> 00:14:11,730
Brutal.

219
00:14:12,780 --> 00:14:14,180
And with full contact.

220
00:14:15,180 --> 00:14:16,740
Meeting force head on.

221
00:14:19,850 --> 00:14:23,669
A Spartan was a soldier and nothing
else. He spent his entire life training

222
00:14:23,670 --> 00:14:24,720
be a warrior.

223
00:14:25,370 --> 00:14:28,550
For a ninja, training was much more
holistic.

224
00:14:28,551 --> 00:14:32,369
It wasn't about just running out there
and hitting things as hard as you can.

225
00:14:32,370 --> 00:14:33,420
was about precision.

226
00:14:34,990 --> 00:14:40,489
The ninjas worked on perfecting
technique so that every strike would be

227
00:14:40,490 --> 00:14:41,570
accurate as possible.

228
00:14:43,410 --> 00:14:49,130
But instead of meeting force with force,
it was deflected.

229
00:14:49,590 --> 00:14:51,090
throwing an enemy off balance.

230
00:14:52,590 --> 00:14:57,209
For a ninja, training consisted not just
of physical force, but also mind over

231
00:14:57,210 --> 00:14:59,510
body. That's how he won against a
samurai.

232
00:14:59,511 --> 00:15:02,189
That's how he's going to win against a
Spartan.

233
00:15:02,190 --> 00:15:05,140
They have some tricks up their sleeve,
but they're tricks.

234
00:15:05,390 --> 00:15:06,650
Battles are won by tricks.

235
00:15:07,370 --> 00:15:09,660
Won by the best warrior with the best
weapons.

236
00:15:11,510 --> 00:15:14,670
Well, the Spartans were fantastic
warriors in their own time.

237
00:15:15,090 --> 00:15:17,630
But to a ninja, something like a
Spartan?

238
00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:19,140
Just a big piece of meat.

239
00:15:19,600 --> 00:15:23,399
To a Spartan, a ninja would be nothing
but vermin. He'd be a peasant, armed

240
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,899
weapons he doesn't deserve to carry,
fighting better men than himself.

241
00:15:26,900 --> 00:15:29,250
Scurry around in dark places like a
cockroach.

242
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:33,560
So far, we've tested the Spartan spear
and the ninja's black eggs.

243
00:15:33,561 --> 00:15:37,999
And to be frank, those black eggs are a
really powerful weapon. When they hit

244
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,560
home, they do some major damage.

245
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,990
However, in comparison to the Spartan
spear, they're nothing.

246
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,740
That thing is a killing blow every time
it hits.

247
00:15:46,620 --> 00:15:47,960
100 % lethal.

248
00:15:48,180 --> 00:15:51,070
So as it is right now, I would have to
give it to the Spartan.

249
00:15:51,780 --> 00:15:54,360
Spartan has the edge in mid -range
weapons.

250
00:15:54,700 --> 00:16:00,660
For close -up action, the ninja
unsheathes a sword with legendary

251
00:16:09,860 --> 00:16:12,580
Spartan versus ninja.

252
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,960
would win a no -holds -barred battle to
the death.

253
00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,680
Every suit of armor has a weak point.

254
00:16:19,681 --> 00:16:21,539
That's what the ninja would exploit.

255
00:16:21,540 --> 00:16:24,619
I don't care how well -trained the ninja
is, he's never taken the blows that a

256
00:16:24,620 --> 00:16:27,030
Spartan has from the time he was eight
years old.

257
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:31,160
In ancient Greece, Spartans fought their
way into history.

258
00:16:32,740 --> 00:16:38,399
In Japan, ninjas slipped quietly into
legend, taking on highly trained armored

259
00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:41,040
samurai and winning.

260
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:46,460
Ninjas developed a weapon for every
situation.

261
00:16:46,980 --> 00:16:52,159
They're all reliable. It's a sword that
combines devastating cutting power with

262
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,210
amazing speed.

263
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,640
It's a variation of the actual samurai
katana called a ninjutsu.

264
00:16:58,020 --> 00:16:59,180
A ninjutsu.

265
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,000
Three feet of razor -sharp steel.

266
00:17:02,300 --> 00:17:04,380
Perfect for slashing and stabbing.

267
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,180
One of the secrets is the scabbard is
long.

268
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:13,439
But the blade inside is just a little
shorter, which makes it a lot faster on

269
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:14,490
the draw.

270
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:28,520
Fast, deadly, and 2 ,000 years more
advanced than a Spartan's Bronze Age

271
00:17:28,521 --> 00:17:32,439
This is tempered steel, okay? So you
think it's going to make it through the

272
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,910
shield? I think it'll make it through
his helmet.

273
00:17:36,590 --> 00:17:39,670
There you go. You are by a sharp place.
Just be careful. Okay.

274
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:45,429
The team uses a skeleton encased in
ballistics gel to mimic the resistance

275
00:17:45,430 --> 00:17:46,970
human flesh and bone.

276
00:17:56,350 --> 00:18:01,170
As a former paramedic, Jeff Damoline
knows what it takes to kill a man.

277
00:18:01,930 --> 00:18:03,070
There's at least...

278
00:18:03,920 --> 00:18:08,499
Six inches there of penetration, which
means that the major blood vessels to

279
00:18:08,500 --> 00:18:12,619
arm would have been lacerated, as well
as the lung. And so essentially the

280
00:18:12,620 --> 00:18:15,639
would be pumping the blood out of the
body, which would take literally seconds

281
00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:16,980
for this person to die.

282
00:18:17,300 --> 00:18:18,580
Nice. Very nice.

283
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:20,100
The numbers don't lie.

284
00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,440
The ninjato is the most lethal weapon
we've seen.

285
00:18:24,340 --> 00:18:28,939
So far. The velocity of your sword was
much higher than that of the spear of

286
00:18:28,940 --> 00:18:33,430
Spartans. That's probably equivalent to
you going through a 2x4 with that sword.

287
00:18:33,730 --> 00:18:35,230
Wow. Look how amazing that was.

288
00:18:37,850 --> 00:18:41,870
Unfortunately for the ninja, the Spartan
isn't wearing wooden armor.

289
00:18:43,630 --> 00:18:46,640
The armor of Spartan is like a battle
tank. He closes quickly.

290
00:18:46,790 --> 00:18:48,370
He puts a shield into his enemy.

291
00:18:48,810 --> 00:18:50,410
He puts a sword into his gut.

292
00:18:53,530 --> 00:18:58,569
Spartan's short sword is only 20 inches
long, but it shaped the maximum killing

293
00:18:58,570 --> 00:18:59,620
power.

294
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,290
A deadly sharp sword, very, very heavy
towards the cutting part.

295
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,790
That's what we call the sweet of the
sword.

296
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,080
This can actually hack off a man's limbs
with one good slap.

297
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:14,820
Barry honed his sword skills during his
eight years as a Green Beret.

298
00:19:15,440 --> 00:19:19,579
This part cuts the throat. It flashes
inside the thigh of the femoral artery.

299
00:19:19,580 --> 00:19:20,630
stabs to the guts.

300
00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:22,420
It keeps close and personal.

301
00:19:22,900 --> 00:19:25,790
I think the ninjas are going to have a
tough time with this.

302
00:19:29,649 --> 00:19:34,329
Again, all the power comes from down low
from my hips, driving the sword into

303
00:19:34,330 --> 00:19:35,430
him. All that power.

304
00:19:39,610 --> 00:19:40,660
Get out!

305
00:19:40,661 --> 00:19:42,669
How deep do you think this went?

306
00:19:42,670 --> 00:19:45,860
Let's find out. I mean, this is pretty
gnarly looking right here.

307
00:19:45,861 --> 00:19:49,249
Now, you see there from the residue of
the gel, we're talking six, seven

308
00:19:49,250 --> 00:19:50,300
That's ridiculous.

309
00:19:51,250 --> 00:19:53,050
Dude, I'm sorry. You're double bad.

310
00:19:54,210 --> 00:19:56,830
But the damage should have been even
more severe.

311
00:19:57,550 --> 00:20:02,009
You see here that I actually hit the
steel column that is the spinal column

312
00:20:02,010 --> 00:20:03,869
this dummy and bent the tip of the
sword.

313
00:20:03,870 --> 00:20:07,509
That's how hard we hit it. Of course, if
the spinal column had been made of a

314
00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:09,740
real human tissue, it would have severed
it.

315
00:20:10,570 --> 00:20:15,009
Barry's collision with the steel spine
and our gel torso prevents a high -tech

316
00:20:15,010 --> 00:20:16,450
comparison of the two swords.

317
00:20:17,290 --> 00:20:19,350
So the team sets up a different test.

318
00:20:20,030 --> 00:20:23,390
They obtain the closest substitute, the
human flesh.

319
00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:30,120
A pig has the same flesh type, same
types of bones, vessels as a human body.

320
00:20:55,720 --> 00:21:01,159
The short sword was proven to be a
lethal weapon, but not as deadly as the

321
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,210
ninjato.

322
00:21:02,660 --> 00:21:06,699
I can feel it actually crunching through
the bones. You can see it bend just a

323
00:21:06,700 --> 00:21:07,219
little bit.

324
00:21:07,220 --> 00:21:10,619
There's a strain on the blade. Did you
see it rotate like that? Any other blade

325
00:21:10,620 --> 00:21:12,380
would have snapped for sure.

326
00:21:12,381 --> 00:21:14,979
Yeah, it goes through the pelvis,
through the spine.

327
00:21:14,980 --> 00:21:18,259
That's right around the area where the
Spartan doesn't have any armor either.

328
00:21:18,260 --> 00:21:22,180
if you hit the Spartan like this, we
would see a similar injury.

329
00:21:22,860 --> 00:21:24,000
Is that an insta -kill?

330
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,580
Yes. The spinal cord is cut. The major
artery is cut.

331
00:21:28,380 --> 00:21:30,120
Exsanguination, 30 seconds, dead.

332
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:32,680
How would you program this in the model?

333
00:21:32,780 --> 00:21:34,780
I can't even begin to imagine.

334
00:21:34,980 --> 00:21:38,479
There are going to be a lot of
parameters that I have to tweak. I mean,

335
00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,430
wound is so big, we don't even have to
worry about bleed out.

336
00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:46,970
Right now, I'm giving the edge to the
ninja.

337
00:21:47,120 --> 00:21:48,380
I think the ninja will win.

338
00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:52,080
The ninja's weaponry has just made it to
a higher standard.

339
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,700
We're seeing steel age technology
against bronze age technology.

340
00:21:57,100 --> 00:21:59,160
And I think we see why steel is
superior.

341
00:21:59,800 --> 00:22:03,180
Ninjato gives the ninja the edge at
close range offense.

342
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,340
But our Spartan experts aren't fazed.

343
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:12,679
They have yet to reveal the weapon that
made Sparta a superpower for more than

344
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:13,730
500 years.

345
00:22:13,940 --> 00:22:17,220
The Spartan has this one advantage the
ninja cannot counter.

346
00:22:17,780 --> 00:22:18,840
The shield.

347
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,210
Coming up.

348
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:28,179
A non -stop ninja assault versus the
ultimate defense to decide who is

349
00:22:28,180 --> 00:22:32,020
the deadliest warrior.

350
00:22:40,340 --> 00:22:44,580
When it comes to combat, Spartans and
ninjas are opposites.

351
00:22:46,040 --> 00:22:48,420
A Spartan never retreats.

352
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:51,220
He lives to feel the blood of his enemy.

353
00:22:52,490 --> 00:22:56,409
A true warrior stands toe -to -toe,
shield to shield in the battle line, his

354
00:22:56,410 --> 00:22:58,070
sword, his spear, his shield.

355
00:23:00,170 --> 00:23:01,250
That's all man fights.

356
00:23:02,350 --> 00:23:05,170
But a ninja prefers the element of
surprise.

357
00:23:06,330 --> 00:23:09,969
So a ninja has no armor, no ways of
protecting himself if he gets hit. And

358
00:23:09,970 --> 00:23:13,820
that's a big if, because a ninja's not
going to get hit. A ninja's much faster,

359
00:23:13,830 --> 00:23:17,290
much more agile, and has a better array
of equipment at his disposal.

360
00:23:18,430 --> 00:23:21,260
One of the ninja's simplest and most
effective weapons.

361
00:23:22,090 --> 00:23:23,140
It's the blowgun.

362
00:23:23,510 --> 00:23:27,650
Made from bamboo, it fires small dots
that pack a huge punch.

363
00:23:34,290 --> 00:23:35,340
What do you think?

364
00:23:35,790 --> 00:23:38,610
Arm shot, arm shot, lower torso, neck
area.

365
00:23:38,611 --> 00:23:40,689
Everywhere the Spartan doesn't have
armor.

366
00:23:40,690 --> 00:23:42,370
Exactly. No armor.

367
00:23:43,470 --> 00:23:45,390
These may look small and flimsy.

368
00:23:46,030 --> 00:23:51,529
But the tip is drenched with a severely
toxic chemical known as tetrodotoxin. It

369
00:23:51,530 --> 00:23:53,309
comes from the pufferfish or blowfish.

370
00:23:53,310 --> 00:23:56,330
And a small amount basically can kill
somebody in a minute.

371
00:23:58,390 --> 00:24:04,310
With a concentrated poison on the tip,
they hit you, you die, game over.

372
00:24:05,910 --> 00:24:12,689
The ninja's most famous distance weapon
was the shuriken, a ring

373
00:24:12,690 --> 00:24:15,250
of razor -sharp steel that always hits.

374
00:24:15,530 --> 00:24:16,580
Point first.

375
00:24:18,950 --> 00:24:22,320
Gentlemen, let me introduce to you one
of the most lethal weapons,

376
00:24:22,910 --> 00:24:27,689
the shuriken or ninja star. When you
throw the shuriken, you throw it in this

377
00:24:27,690 --> 00:24:32,250
technique right here. You throw it as
fast and as hard as you can.

378
00:24:32,251 --> 00:24:36,989
Yeah, this actually kind of looks like
four scalpels. That's right, Doc. Four

379
00:24:36,990 --> 00:24:40,809
scalpels flying at your face, flying at
your eye socket, flying at your neck,

380
00:24:40,810 --> 00:24:42,069
and flying at your sternum.

381
00:24:42,070 --> 00:24:45,329
I can pour those into your chest. What
do you think they're going to do to you?

382
00:24:45,330 --> 00:24:49,189
I'm still questioning the lethality of
these shurikens, but even a distracting

383
00:24:49,190 --> 00:24:51,450
tool has to be fast and it has to be on
its mark.

384
00:24:51,670 --> 00:24:55,040
So I brought the speed gun and we have a
target for you to practice on.

385
00:24:58,230 --> 00:24:59,410
47 miles an hour.

386
00:25:00,390 --> 00:25:03,010
48 miles an hour.

387
00:25:03,250 --> 00:25:06,980
Stuck it right in the bone. Yeah. Here
you would definitely break some ribs,

388
00:25:06,981 --> 00:25:10,669
perhaps puncturing the lungs. You would
get the liver and cause some significant

389
00:25:10,670 --> 00:25:13,800
bleeding. If you hit somebody like this,
they would die from it.

390
00:25:15,510 --> 00:25:19,150
Throwing stars and poison dots are
lethal when they hit their mark.

391
00:25:22,550 --> 00:25:24,350
What if there's no mark to hit?

392
00:25:25,410 --> 00:25:30,169
From his shins all the way to the top of
his head, the Spartan is cased in solid

393
00:25:30,170 --> 00:25:31,220
bronze armor.

394
00:25:31,221 --> 00:25:34,589
I just don't see this as being lethal.
It's a very sweet weapon if you're

395
00:25:34,590 --> 00:25:36,210
throwing against a naked savage.

396
00:25:36,630 --> 00:25:40,589
But against an armored, bronze -clad
warrior, I still think you're in deep

397
00:25:40,590 --> 00:25:41,640
jeopardy.

398
00:25:43,950 --> 00:25:49,089
Though their armor supports close
combat, the Spartans have a distant

399
00:25:49,090 --> 00:25:50,140
their own.

400
00:25:51,390 --> 00:25:55,790
The Spartan javelin was designed to be
thrown at armies, not individuals.

401
00:25:57,530 --> 00:26:00,960
This is not like the javelins you see in
Olympic Games, for instance.

402
00:26:00,961 --> 00:26:03,809
It's almost like a dart, only three and
a half feet long.

403
00:26:03,810 --> 00:26:07,180
And of course, in the hands of an
expert, these things can be really

404
00:26:13,040 --> 00:26:16,520
Right into the diaphragm, we're looking
at major damage there.

405
00:26:16,980 --> 00:26:21,139
This is about the pancreas of the body.
How far did it go in there, Barry? It

406
00:26:21,140 --> 00:26:24,330
went all the way up to the wire, which
is about 2 1⁄2 to 3 inches.

407
00:26:27,300 --> 00:26:32,759
What we just saw looked impressive, but
the actual damage is not as significant

408
00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:33,810
as you would think.

409
00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:39,440
The javelin would need to have a perfect
strike to cause significant damage.

410
00:26:40,620 --> 00:26:42,220
But the long -range results in.

411
00:26:42,860 --> 00:26:46,100
The Spartan javelin isn't as lethal as
the ninja blowgun.

412
00:26:47,420 --> 00:26:49,880
The ninja has a definite edge at long
range.

413
00:26:52,540 --> 00:26:57,559
None of the ninja's weapons will do
anything if they can't get past the

414
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:01,899
shield. The Spartan, going into battle
against the ninja, has this one

415
00:27:01,900 --> 00:27:03,160
the ninja cannot counter.

416
00:27:03,540 --> 00:27:08,920
Anything he throws, be it shuriken,
blowgun, is deflected off of the shield.

417
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:11,200
Almost four feet across.

418
00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:16,440
Made of wood covered in bronze, this
shield helped Spartans become legends.

419
00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:21,479
The most important part of a Spartan's
military equipment was his shield. When

420
00:27:21,480 --> 00:27:25,279
the Spartans fought the Persians in
Thermopylae, the Spartan's shield

421
00:27:25,280 --> 00:27:28,859
any weapon the Persian had, whereas the
Spartan's spear would clear through the

422
00:27:28,860 --> 00:27:30,420
wicker shields of the Persians.

423
00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:38,420
The shield provides a solid defense and
an almost unstoppable offense.

424
00:27:39,460 --> 00:27:41,080
You step in with a thrust.

425
00:27:41,710 --> 00:27:46,709
As you step in, you close with your
opponent, cocking your shield back for a

426
00:27:46,710 --> 00:27:49,240
devastating strike to the cheek of your
opponent.

427
00:27:49,241 --> 00:27:52,669
You could hit him with the flat of the
shield and knock him on his pants.

428
00:27:52,670 --> 00:27:55,069
You could take the edge of the shield
and you could break his bones.

429
00:27:55,070 --> 00:27:57,720
It's a steamroller. It just pushes
through the enemy.

430
00:27:59,470 --> 00:28:04,549
To accurately measure the shield's
force, our team wires up a high -impact

431
00:28:04,550 --> 00:28:05,600
dummy.

432
00:28:12,521 --> 00:28:18,489
Jeremy, take a look at this. We haven't
seen these numbers yet.

433
00:28:18,490 --> 00:28:22,250
This is over 45 Gs you inflicted on that
dummy's head.

434
00:28:23,570 --> 00:28:29,110
I've tested trauma for automobile
accident, IED explosion, punches to the

435
00:28:29,230 --> 00:28:32,420
and this is the highest acceleration
I've seen in a dummy so far.

436
00:28:35,930 --> 00:28:38,090
What did we get? Field shock here.

437
00:28:39,810 --> 00:28:40,860
Oh.

438
00:28:41,930 --> 00:28:43,490
Looks like you bent your shield.

439
00:28:44,170 --> 00:28:45,390
I just grazed it, too.

440
00:28:46,910 --> 00:28:52,009
So we're talking depressed skull
fracture, instant unconsciousness, brain

441
00:28:52,010 --> 00:28:54,830
laceration. How does that compare to the
spear?

442
00:28:55,190 --> 00:28:58,010
I'd say this is much more deadly than
the spear was.

443
00:28:58,250 --> 00:29:03,089
Generating 45 Gs is way beyond what you
actually need to penetrate the skull and

444
00:29:03,090 --> 00:29:03,789
cause death.

445
00:29:03,790 --> 00:29:07,950
So being hit by something like that
shield is basically a death blow.

446
00:29:09,990 --> 00:29:12,690
The Spartan shield is an overwhelming
weapon.

447
00:29:14,090 --> 00:29:15,710
But the ninja team isn't worried.

448
00:29:16,230 --> 00:29:17,280
What about that?

449
00:29:17,830 --> 00:29:20,590
Has to have the Kusarigama. I love it.

450
00:29:21,950 --> 00:29:28,030
Coming up, the ninjas unleash a savage
weapon that slices, dices, and smashes.

451
00:29:29,450 --> 00:29:33,490
Stay tuned to find out who will be the
deadliest warrior.

452
00:29:39,890 --> 00:29:42,410
In a showdown between a ninja and
Spartan,

453
00:29:43,370 --> 00:29:46,090
The battle boils down to one simple
question.

454
00:29:47,670 --> 00:29:51,850
Can the ninja get past the Spartan's
shield and find a weak point in his

455
00:29:52,430 --> 00:29:56,629
You have to remember, the Spartan is an
armored warrior, unlike anything the

456
00:29:56,630 --> 00:29:57,890
ninja's ever seen before.

457
00:29:58,130 --> 00:30:01,749
His head is encased in a bronze helmet.
His body armor is made of the same

458
00:30:01,750 --> 00:30:02,950
thing. It's solid bronze.

459
00:30:03,290 --> 00:30:06,610
No slash, no cutting technique is going
to penetrate that armor.

460
00:30:06,850 --> 00:30:11,469
It'll glance off, it'll scratch it, but
it won't penetrate it. Our Spartan

461
00:30:11,470 --> 00:30:12,610
experts are confident.

462
00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:19,180
But the ninja had a secret weapon that
was designed to kill armored samurai.

463
00:30:45,310 --> 00:30:47,430
Kusarikama is two weapons in one.

464
00:30:47,830 --> 00:30:51,490
A razor -sharp scythe combined with a
fallen chain on the end.

465
00:30:52,090 --> 00:30:56,209
This big sickle part right here is
something that farmers use to cut wheat,

466
00:30:56,210 --> 00:30:59,649
grain, that sort of thing. Very useful
for hooking, trapping limbs. You can

467
00:30:59,650 --> 00:31:03,140
catch somebody's weapon, strip it out of
them, catch them by the neck.

468
00:31:04,070 --> 00:31:06,110
Send right here, free -hanging weight.

469
00:31:06,111 --> 00:31:09,469
Use that to get up some nice momentum.
You get this sucker wrapped around your

470
00:31:09,470 --> 00:31:13,009
limbs, spins closer and closer to the
center, so the force takes care of the

471
00:31:13,010 --> 00:31:14,060
rest.

472
00:31:24,840 --> 00:31:26,640
The side end is going to be on the left.

473
00:31:26,680 --> 00:31:30,180
Okay, breaking the two lower ribs right
there.

474
00:31:30,380 --> 00:31:31,520
Look at that sharp wave.

475
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:35,400
It gouges at least two to three inches
inside.

476
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,950
You actually punch it in the lungs as
well, for sure. Absolutely.

477
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:42,340
If you actually pierce, what you're
going to do then is rip it out.

478
00:31:43,140 --> 00:31:46,330
Take everything that it's attached to
straight out of the body.

479
00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,100
Kusarigama, fast and lethal.

480
00:31:50,800 --> 00:31:52,960
But our Spartan experts aren't worried.

481
00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:54,780
This is the acid test.

482
00:31:55,220 --> 00:31:56,540
You can't cut through this.

483
00:31:56,580 --> 00:31:59,230
You can't get to the soft, squishy parts
underneath.

484
00:31:59,231 --> 00:32:03,159
And my guess is you're not going to be
able to do that. This is 12 -gauge solid

485
00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:06,899
bronze. You can't cut through the bronze
armor, and all the wounds you deliver

486
00:32:06,900 --> 00:32:08,340
will just be nicks.

487
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:10,810
Good luck, laddie.

488
00:32:11,220 --> 00:32:12,360
You're going to need it.

489
00:32:20,081 --> 00:32:27,009
This is going to determine a lot of
armor penetration for the simulation.

490
00:32:27,010 --> 00:32:30,169
I mean, there's been a lot of talk about
this as being your big weapon against

491
00:32:30,170 --> 00:32:31,220
the Spartan.

492
00:32:31,850 --> 00:32:32,900
Combs?

493
00:32:33,410 --> 00:32:34,460
Oh, nice face.

494
00:32:34,461 --> 00:32:36,069
Thank you.

495
00:32:36,070 --> 00:32:37,120
You're in the moment.

496
00:32:37,121 --> 00:32:38,849
I don't want that coming at me. Oh, wow.

497
00:32:38,850 --> 00:32:39,900
Oh!

498
00:32:40,330 --> 00:32:44,890
It's denting for sure, but... Of course,
where does the blade go next?

499
00:32:45,310 --> 00:32:47,450
It goes right up next to the neck.

500
00:32:47,451 --> 00:32:51,979
From there, exactly where the blade's
curving around right now, you go for the

501
00:32:51,980 --> 00:32:55,419
back of the neck, go for the side of the
neck, hook in there, drag. And that's

502
00:32:55,420 --> 00:32:56,879
the one place he doesn't have armor.

503
00:32:56,880 --> 00:33:00,640
Absolutely. Michael Laird tries hard to
put a positive spin on it.

504
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:02,880
He's not armored everywhere, is he?

505
00:33:03,300 --> 00:33:04,350
Take out one arm.

506
00:33:04,640 --> 00:33:05,720
Take out the other arm.

507
00:33:05,800 --> 00:33:07,880
Drops his shield, drops his spear.

508
00:33:08,200 --> 00:33:11,660
Of course, the only thing he wants to do
is take out the rest of it.

509
00:33:12,020 --> 00:33:13,160
Just what a ninja wants.

510
00:33:13,580 --> 00:33:14,800
The ninja a -selling.

511
00:33:15,820 --> 00:33:16,870
Nobody's buying.

512
00:33:16,871 --> 00:33:20,739
I think it was both, and I don't think
the Spartan would be very bothered by an

513
00:33:20,740 --> 00:33:23,990
impact like that. So right now, I'm
giving the edge to the Spartan.

514
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:28,600
But to fully understand the Kusarigama,
we need to test both ends.

515
00:33:39,140 --> 00:33:40,190
Hey.

516
00:33:40,600 --> 00:33:42,760
Nice job. Look at that.

517
00:33:43,460 --> 00:33:44,520
Oh, my gosh.

518
00:33:44,521 --> 00:33:49,099
What do you think, Doc? Did I get him?
Well, there's a huge dent there. Only

519
00:33:49,100 --> 00:33:50,150
way to tell for sure.

520
00:33:54,180 --> 00:33:58,780
Looks like a little miniature car crash
going on inside there. Yeah, exactly.

521
00:33:58,781 --> 00:34:01,719
You feel the heads rotating like that?
Yeah, look at that.

522
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,619
You're getting direct contact
compressing the spine, which could

523
00:34:05,620 --> 00:34:06,700
a chance of paralysis.

524
00:34:07,180 --> 00:34:11,219
And the head rotation itself due to the
ball could be a kill shot as well.

525
00:34:11,821 --> 00:34:13,749
Hey, guys.

526
00:34:13,750 --> 00:34:15,860
Difficult to get past this one, I tell
you.

527
00:34:16,389 --> 00:34:20,610
Wraps around the helmet, strikes the
top, breaks the crest.

528
00:34:21,449 --> 00:34:23,559
Guys, you like putting that thing on
yet?

529
00:34:24,570 --> 00:34:25,620
Turns the head.

530
00:34:25,730 --> 00:34:27,230
Very impressive.

531
00:34:27,670 --> 00:34:31,629
Now, you're going to stun the Spartan
perhaps for a second or two, but no

532
00:34:31,630 --> 00:34:34,709
than a sword blow to the side of the
head or a spear blow or a shield blow

533
00:34:34,710 --> 00:34:36,630
he's used to taking every day in combat.

534
00:34:36,889 --> 00:34:37,939
I didn't disagree.

535
00:34:38,270 --> 00:34:42,049
I think the leather padding inside
wouldn't absorb the energy. I think it

536
00:34:42,050 --> 00:34:45,130
just translate the energy from the
helmet to the neck.

537
00:34:45,131 --> 00:34:48,968
That's why I'm suspecting a neck injury
in this case. I mean, if we're sitting

538
00:34:48,969 --> 00:34:51,349
our head out like that, we're going to
be whacked. But we're going to be moving

539
00:34:51,350 --> 00:34:53,629
around, and it's not going to connect
that way. That's what he counted on.

540
00:34:53,630 --> 00:34:54,890
That's why he hit the back.

541
00:34:54,891 --> 00:34:57,689
That's why he didn't go straight through
your shield. We're going to see that

542
00:34:57,690 --> 00:35:00,929
thing come in. It's going to whack that
shield and just skip right over maybe,

543
00:35:00,930 --> 00:35:03,769
you know. So you're telling me your eyes
are tracking a small beam pole about

544
00:35:03,770 --> 00:35:06,699
that big that's black whipping in the
air? We'll be watching your shoulder.

545
00:35:06,700 --> 00:35:10,739
Brother, we got full extension beyond
your spear. Yeah, okay. Way beyond your

546
00:35:10,740 --> 00:35:14,079
spear. This is a good blow, but hey, it
can happen that way in a real battle.

547
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:17,519
Even if it doesn't, we're not a single
track mind. We're not just standing

548
00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:18,570
whipping it around.

549
00:35:18,571 --> 00:35:22,099
We're setting you up. We're playing
chess on you. You think you know what

550
00:35:22,100 --> 00:35:25,659
doing. You have no clue. Just when you
think you're fighting your fight, you're

551
00:35:25,660 --> 00:35:26,739
actually fighting ours.

552
00:35:26,740 --> 00:35:29,690
Our experts remain convinced that their
fighter will win.

553
00:35:30,520 --> 00:35:32,420
And our testers are now divided.

554
00:35:32,421 --> 00:35:36,329
I think it's going to be the Spartan.
That shield is just so massive, I can't

555
00:35:36,330 --> 00:35:39,709
imagine the ninja getting around it. Up
until we saw the Kusurigama, I thought

556
00:35:39,710 --> 00:35:43,449
the Spartan had the advantage, but the
Kusurigama provides for blunt trauma

557
00:35:43,450 --> 00:35:46,520
that's devastating, and it also provides
for some distance.

558
00:35:46,790 --> 00:35:49,930
Our experts can't agree, but the numbers
don't lie.

559
00:35:50,530 --> 00:35:53,450
The shield gives the Spartan the edge in
special weapons.

560
00:35:54,910 --> 00:36:01,029
After three days of non -stop testing,
Max Geiger will take the results and

561
00:36:01,030 --> 00:36:02,170
them into the computer.

562
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,260
that will simulate the battle.

563
00:36:05,220 --> 00:36:10,140
Coming up, Spartan, Ninja, the battle
begins.

564
00:36:21,720 --> 00:36:27,659
Chef Tamerlan and our testing team run
the final test on the Spartan and the

565
00:36:27,660 --> 00:36:32,580
Ninja. Now, they're about to find out
who is... The deadliest warrior.

566
00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:39,720
The team tested four sparking weapons.

567
00:36:40,060 --> 00:36:42,860
The javelin, spear, sword, and shield.

568
00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:49,640
They tested the ninja shuriken,
kusarigama, ninjato, blowgun, and black

569
00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:55,300
Out of the three different long bits and
weapons, none were very effective.

570
00:36:55,301 --> 00:36:58,699
The javelin isn't all that accurate.
It's not going to stop anybody in their

571
00:36:58,700 --> 00:37:00,840
tracks. Same thing for the ninja stars.

572
00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,040
The blowgun, on the other hand, one hit,
one kill.

573
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:05,970
Edge, Ninja.

574
00:37:06,980 --> 00:37:08,160
The medium range.

575
00:37:08,360 --> 00:37:11,000
Our team tested two very different
weapons.

576
00:37:11,001 --> 00:37:15,039
The black eggs are definitely going to
hit, and they're definitely going to do

577
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:16,019
some damage.

578
00:37:16,020 --> 00:37:19,119
Ninja's going to be able to wear the
Spartan down a little bit. But the spear

579
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,490
absolutely lethal. When it does catch
him, it's an absolute killer.

580
00:37:23,620 --> 00:37:24,740
Edge, Spartan.

581
00:37:26,160 --> 00:37:29,680
For close range, we tested two razor
-sharp swords.

582
00:37:29,681 --> 00:37:33,129
When it comes to the sword, there's no
comparison.

583
00:37:33,130 --> 00:37:36,620
The Ninjuto, it's longer, it's lighter,
it's faster, it's stronger.

584
00:37:36,770 --> 00:37:38,090
Ninja has the advantage.

585
00:37:40,330 --> 00:37:41,380
Edge Ninja.

586
00:37:42,330 --> 00:37:45,090
Our experts had two choices for special
weapons.

587
00:37:49,970 --> 00:37:52,930
The Kasurigama is a devastating weapon.

588
00:37:53,310 --> 00:37:56,490
But the shield is both a defensive and
offensive weapon.

589
00:37:57,850 --> 00:38:01,460
So at the end of the day, I think I'm
going to have to give it to the Spartan.

590
00:38:01,650 --> 00:38:02,730
Edge Spartan.

591
00:38:06,230 --> 00:38:10,429
Max now loads the results into a state
-of -the -art computer program that will

592
00:38:10,430 --> 00:38:11,510
determine the winner.

593
00:38:11,511 --> 00:38:15,409
These numbers are going to tell us that
when a spear punches through somebody's

594
00:38:15,410 --> 00:38:19,709
ribcage, how hard are those bones going
to crack and how badly is that guy going

595
00:38:19,710 --> 00:38:20,760
to bleed?

596
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:24,960
Prevent the fight being won by a single
lucky blow.

597
00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,280
Max will simulate the battle 1 ,000
times.

598
00:38:30,780 --> 00:38:32,720
It will be a battle of opposites.

599
00:38:33,260 --> 00:38:36,680
Speed against strength.

600
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:40,640
Steel versus bronze.

601
00:38:41,220 --> 00:38:44,200
Direct versus deviant.

602
00:38:44,201 --> 00:38:47,599
I've got about all the numbers that I
can handle at this point.

603
00:38:47,600 --> 00:38:50,559
So what do you say we see who our
deadliest warrior is? I'm looking

604
00:38:50,560 --> 00:38:52,200
it. Lock and load.

605
00:40:27,310 --> 00:40:28,360
Thank you.

606
00:41:36,529 --> 00:41:40,689
When I ran the battle a thousand times,
I saw that the Spartan won 65 % of the

607
00:41:40,690 --> 00:41:44,120
time. The determining factor in this
fight was the Spartan's shield.

608
00:41:44,300 --> 00:41:48,659
The ninja was able to win about 35 % of
the time. He definitely left the Spartan

609
00:41:48,660 --> 00:41:52,300
bloodied and incapacitated, but he just
wasn't able to win.

610
00:41:52,301 --> 00:41:55,819
I'm surprised that the Spartan actually
won such a high percentage.

611
00:41:55,820 --> 00:41:59,639
It seems to actually boil down to the
fact that the ninja can hurt the

612
00:41:59,640 --> 00:42:01,800
but the Spartan can kill the ninja.

613
00:42:03,740 --> 00:42:07,719
You know, I'm disappointed, but if a
ninja saw a Spartan in real life, he

614
00:42:07,720 --> 00:42:10,370
just run away. He'd come back and kill
him in his sleep.

615
00:42:11,040 --> 00:42:12,480
The ninja had some surprises.

616
00:42:12,481 --> 00:42:15,219
He certainly had some skills, some great
moves.

617
00:42:15,220 --> 00:42:18,259
I think the ninja would have done well
against almost any warrior in history,

618
00:42:18,260 --> 00:42:19,560
except the Spartans.
