1
00:00:14,806 --> 00:00:17,142
- Last season,
America's top bladesmiths,
2
00:00:17,142 --> 00:00:19,478
martial artists,
and knife experts stepped up
3
00:00:19,478 --> 00:00:21,730
to the grueling
new competition
4
00:00:21,730 --> 00:00:24,399
that put their blade-wielding
skills to the ultimate test.
5
00:00:24,399 --> 00:00:27,736
Whoa!
Total carnage!
6
00:00:27,736 --> 00:00:29,947
Now, a new batch
of competitors,
7
00:00:29,947 --> 00:00:32,532
with bigger and badder blades,
are ready to take their shot.
8
00:00:34,409 --> 00:00:36,453
But this time,
we've turned up the heat.
9
00:00:36,453 --> 00:00:38,247
Looks like medical
is stepping in.
10
00:00:38,247 --> 00:00:39,665
New challenges.
11
00:00:39,665 --> 00:00:41,667
The blade broke in half!
12
00:00:41,667 --> 00:00:43,168
Who will be skilled enough,
13
00:00:43,168 --> 00:00:44,836
and which blades
are sharp enough,
14
00:00:44,836 --> 00:00:47,297
to earn the $20,000
grand prize
15
00:00:47,297 --> 00:00:49,841
and the title
of "Knife or Death" champion?
16
00:01:04,398 --> 00:01:05,774
- Even when I'm not holding
a sword
17
00:01:05,774 --> 00:01:07,401
in my hand
I can guarantee you
18
00:01:07,401 --> 00:01:10,320
I'm thinking a lot
about swords.
19
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:12,197
- I always ask people,
"Where do you take a woman
20
00:01:12,197 --> 00:01:15,659
who uses knives out to eat?"
My answer always is,
21
00:01:15,659 --> 00:01:18,120
"Anywhere she wants to go."
22
00:01:20,872 --> 00:01:22,583
- Bladewielders,
welcome to the most extreme
23
00:01:22,583 --> 00:01:25,127
knife competition ever created.
24
00:01:25,127 --> 00:01:26,962
Complete two punishing
courses,
25
00:01:26,962 --> 00:01:28,922
and the winner earns
a cash prize
26
00:01:28,922 --> 00:01:31,383
and a spot in
the grand champion showdown
27
00:01:31,383 --> 00:01:34,094
vying for $20,000
and the title
28
00:01:34,094 --> 00:01:35,804
of "Knife or Death" Champion.
29
00:01:35,804 --> 00:01:37,055
A military vet,
30
00:01:37,055 --> 00:01:38,890
a public school teacher,
31
00:01:38,890 --> 00:01:40,809
and a lady sensei.
32
00:01:40,809 --> 00:01:42,561
To say this group
is diverse might be
33
00:01:42,561 --> 00:01:45,564
the understatement
of the century.
34
00:01:45,564 --> 00:01:48,442
But all of you have one thing
in common...
35
00:01:48,442 --> 00:01:50,319
Knife Fight!
36
00:01:50,319 --> 00:01:51,903
The Knife Fight course is
37
00:01:51,903 --> 00:01:53,655
a true test
of speed and power.
38
00:01:53,655 --> 00:01:56,575
Today, first up, Trifecta.
39
00:01:56,575 --> 00:01:58,785
Cut through each target
at the three stations
40
00:01:58,785 --> 00:02:01,455
to release the towers
and extinguish the flame.
41
00:02:03,540 --> 00:02:05,542
Box Cutter.
Cut each moving target
42
00:02:05,542 --> 00:02:07,419
in half before advancing.
43
00:02:07,419 --> 00:02:09,046
You must separate
the bottom of the crate
44
00:02:09,046 --> 00:02:10,756
from the top.
45
00:02:10,756 --> 00:02:13,342
Next up, Decapitator.
46
00:02:13,342 --> 00:02:16,094
You must slice completely
through each row of targets
47
00:02:16,094 --> 00:02:19,556
at each station
with one swing.
48
00:02:19,556 --> 00:02:21,516
Failure to complete
the station is a penalty.
49
00:02:23,268 --> 00:02:25,687
On to Thrice.
50
00:02:25,687 --> 00:02:29,107
Cut completely through all
three ice blocks in order.
51
00:02:29,107 --> 00:02:31,818
Once completed,
it's on to Lifeline,
52
00:02:31,818 --> 00:02:34,029
a sudden death obstacle.
53
00:02:34,029 --> 00:02:35,739
Slice through three
hanging objects
54
00:02:35,739 --> 00:02:37,658
with one swing each.
55
00:02:37,658 --> 00:02:39,868
Fail to slice through,
your run time ends.
56
00:02:42,037 --> 00:02:45,040
Next up, another sudden death
challenge, Kill Shot.
57
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:48,418
You must fully slice through
all six ratchet straps
58
00:02:48,418 --> 00:02:50,671
within three swings.
59
00:02:50,671 --> 00:02:52,255
Failure to do so
and you're not allowed
60
00:02:52,255 --> 00:02:53,965
to go any further
in the course.
61
00:02:55,967 --> 00:02:57,886
Your time ends
when you plunge your blade
62
00:02:57,886 --> 00:03:00,263
through the Tree Stump.
63
00:03:00,263 --> 00:03:02,140
The two that make it
the farthest the fastest
64
00:03:02,140 --> 00:03:03,850
will move on to our second,
even more
65
00:03:03,850 --> 00:03:05,769
grueling course challenge,
66
00:03:05,769 --> 00:03:07,938
Dead Run.
67
00:03:09,981 --> 00:03:12,025
I am honored to introduce
to you
68
00:03:12,025 --> 00:03:14,111
U.S. Army Veteran
69
00:03:14,111 --> 00:03:16,363
and Special Forces Green Beret
70
00:03:16,363 --> 00:03:17,823
Tu Lam.
71
00:03:17,823 --> 00:03:19,533
- They say in
the Special Forces
72
00:03:19,533 --> 00:03:21,326
that you must adapt
and overcome.
73
00:03:22,869 --> 00:03:24,913
Our two-time "Forged in Fire"
champion
74
00:03:24,913 --> 00:03:27,541
and blade expert,
Travis Wuertz,
75
00:03:27,541 --> 00:03:29,376
will give your blade
one final look
76
00:03:29,376 --> 00:03:32,045
so you have the green light
to execute Knife Fight.
77
00:03:32,045 --> 00:03:33,797
He finds anything wrong
with your blade,
78
00:03:33,797 --> 00:03:35,257
you could be eliminated.
79
00:03:35,257 --> 00:03:37,008
- Good luck.
80
00:03:37,008 --> 00:03:39,010
Go get your blades ready.
81
00:03:39,010 --> 00:03:40,720
- I'm Lady Sensei New York.
82
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,973
I'm 55 years old,
and I'm from Brooklyn.
83
00:03:42,973 --> 00:03:46,184
I was once a victim
of domestic violence,
84
00:03:46,184 --> 00:03:47,936
and I began learning
self-defense
85
00:03:47,936 --> 00:03:50,647
as a means to take care
of myself.
86
00:03:50,647 --> 00:03:52,691
12 years later,
that's brought me
87
00:03:52,691 --> 00:03:54,651
from a black eye
to a black belt.
88
00:03:54,651 --> 00:03:57,487
Some women love jewelry,
clothes,
89
00:03:57,487 --> 00:03:59,865
but if you give me
a knife,
90
00:03:59,865 --> 00:04:01,324
I'm a happy camper.
91
00:04:01,324 --> 00:04:02,617
- So what do you got there?
92
00:04:02,617 --> 00:04:04,703
- A kukri-tana.
93
00:04:04,703 --> 00:04:08,206
It is a kukri with
a katana handle on it,
94
00:04:08,206 --> 00:04:11,168
and I call it the
New Girl On The Block.
95
00:04:11,168 --> 00:04:12,878
- May I see the
New Girl On The Block?
96
00:04:12,878 --> 00:04:14,379
- Please.
- Thank you.
97
00:04:14,379 --> 00:04:16,339
I can fit two hands on here,
98
00:04:16,339 --> 00:04:17,924
and this something
99
00:04:17,924 --> 00:04:20,469
that can totally be wielded
single-handed.
100
00:04:20,469 --> 00:04:21,845
And that's--
- If you have the brawn.
101
00:04:21,845 --> 00:04:23,430
I'm not bringing brawn.
102
00:04:23,430 --> 00:04:26,057
That's why I really wanted
enough room
103
00:04:26,057 --> 00:04:28,101
for me for both hands,
104
00:04:28,101 --> 00:04:30,145
so that I can put
my body into the shot.
105
00:04:30,145 --> 00:04:31,646
- The whole rotation.
- Yes, sir.
106
00:04:31,646 --> 00:04:33,190
- She has a nice, flat grind.
107
00:04:33,190 --> 00:04:35,108
She comes into a pretty dang
fine edge.
108
00:04:35,108 --> 00:04:36,651
I mean,
substantial enough to take
109
00:04:36,651 --> 00:04:38,069
pretty much whatever
you'll through at it.
110
00:04:38,069 --> 00:04:39,571
- Yes.
111
00:04:39,571 --> 00:04:41,531
- This should be
a fun knife to swing.
112
00:04:47,287 --> 00:04:48,955
This knife swings
and handles very well.
113
00:04:48,955 --> 00:04:50,081
- Thank you.
114
00:04:50,081 --> 00:04:51,917
- It could be a little sharper,
115
00:04:51,917 --> 00:04:55,128
but I'm very pleased with
the performance of this knife.
116
00:04:55,128 --> 00:04:57,255
So, ultimately,
congratulations.
117
00:04:57,255 --> 00:04:59,633
Your blade makes the cut.
- Thank you, sir.
118
00:04:59,633 --> 00:05:01,176
both: Thank you.
119
00:05:01,176 --> 00:05:02,636
- Weapons are only
an extension
120
00:05:02,636 --> 00:05:04,888
of our mind and body.
121
00:05:04,888 --> 00:05:08,183
Utilizing technique
and visualization
122
00:05:08,183 --> 00:05:11,478
I think I'm gonna get through
the course just fine.
123
00:05:11,478 --> 00:05:14,147
- Gerry Tism, the Lady Sensei.
124
00:05:14,147 --> 00:05:16,399
5 foot 3, first responder,
125
00:05:16,399 --> 00:05:19,486
self-defense instructor,
and professional badass.
126
00:05:19,486 --> 00:05:21,696
- This blade's a kukri blade,
heavy mass at the end.
127
00:05:21,696 --> 00:05:23,240
This thing's made
for chopping.
128
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,033
That means when she swings
129
00:05:25,033 --> 00:05:27,828
this blade's gonna want
to perform like an axe.
130
00:05:27,828 --> 00:05:30,622
- Lady Sensei versus Trifecta.
131
00:05:30,622 --> 00:05:32,123
Cut through each
of the targets
132
00:05:32,123 --> 00:05:33,333
at each of the stations.
133
00:05:33,333 --> 00:05:34,960
- Sah!
134
00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,003
- Nice angle, beautiful shot.
- Whoa!
135
00:05:37,003 --> 00:05:38,296
- What to make a statement!
- Nice!
136
00:05:38,296 --> 00:05:39,965
- Sah!
137
00:05:39,965 --> 00:05:41,049
- Look at how
she generates power
138
00:05:41,049 --> 00:05:42,759
from the ground up.
139
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:45,470
- Yep, talk about a lady
on a mission.
140
00:05:45,470 --> 00:05:47,889
She broke the apparatus
holding the 2x4.
141
00:05:47,889 --> 00:05:49,766
- That's a penalty!
142
00:05:49,766 --> 00:05:51,101
- The goal is to cut through
the objects,
143
00:05:51,101 --> 00:05:52,435
not to bash them apart.
144
00:05:52,435 --> 00:05:54,479
Boom, right through it!
145
00:05:54,479 --> 00:05:57,065
- She got one penalty on
Trifecta.
146
00:05:57,065 --> 00:05:59,401
- Next up, Box Cutter.
147
00:05:59,401 --> 00:06:02,237
She needs to actually cut
the wooden boxes in half.
148
00:06:02,237 --> 00:06:03,822
- What I like about her
149
00:06:03,822 --> 00:06:05,198
is she knows how
to generate power.
150
00:06:05,198 --> 00:06:07,075
I see the same--
geometry's there.
151
00:06:07,075 --> 00:06:08,994
It will perform like an axe
152
00:06:08,994 --> 00:06:10,954
long as she stays lead
the target.
153
00:06:10,954 --> 00:06:12,205
She's almost through though.
154
00:06:14,499 --> 00:06:15,834
She's through
the first obstacle.
155
00:06:15,834 --> 00:06:19,754
Second box is up next.
156
00:06:19,754 --> 00:06:21,214
- She's not striking
consistently
157
00:06:21,214 --> 00:06:22,883
in the same area.
158
00:06:22,883 --> 00:06:24,342
- No, nor is she striking
with near the power
159
00:06:24,342 --> 00:06:25,635
she had in the beginning.
160
00:06:25,635 --> 00:06:27,387
- There it goes.
161
00:06:27,387 --> 00:06:28,972
- Although there she gets
a little bit of hope.
162
00:06:30,473 --> 00:06:32,267
- Nice.
163
00:06:32,267 --> 00:06:34,644
- She got one penalty on
Box Cutter.
164
00:06:34,644 --> 00:06:36,855
Now she steps up
to Decapitator.
165
00:06:36,855 --> 00:06:38,148
She's got to cut all
the way through
166
00:06:38,148 --> 00:06:41,067
all of the objects
with one strike.
167
00:06:43,153 --> 00:06:44,738
Great shot!
168
00:06:47,949 --> 00:06:49,492
- Oh, right through number two!
169
00:06:49,492 --> 00:06:51,244
Good job!
- That accuracy!
170
00:06:51,244 --> 00:06:52,912
- The horizontal strike is key.
171
00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,500
Got a little penalty on
number three
172
00:06:57,500 --> 00:06:59,252
that was a very valiant
effort.
173
00:06:59,252 --> 00:07:01,755
She got through very quickly.
Only got one penalty.
174
00:07:01,755 --> 00:07:03,298
Moving onto Thrice.
175
00:07:03,298 --> 00:07:05,300
Must cut through three blocks
of ice;
176
00:07:05,300 --> 00:07:07,844
each block must have
two separate pieces.
177
00:07:07,844 --> 00:07:09,429
- Long as she knows how
to generate power,
178
00:07:09,429 --> 00:07:11,348
keep that clarity,
she should be good.
179
00:07:13,516 --> 00:07:15,477
- Like how she compromised
the corner
180
00:07:15,477 --> 00:07:17,520
and then she went for
the harder stroke.
181
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:19,189
- Her experience comes from
martial arts,
182
00:07:19,189 --> 00:07:20,565
so I see that she's gonna
have the speed
183
00:07:20,565 --> 00:07:22,275
and levels of attack.
184
00:07:22,275 --> 00:07:23,943
Nice.
- Great job.
185
00:07:23,943 --> 00:07:25,528
Now through number two.
186
00:07:30,075 --> 00:07:31,785
- Great work.
187
00:07:31,785 --> 00:07:33,745
- Her breathing
and how she's controlling it
188
00:07:33,745 --> 00:07:35,413
is amazing, Bill.
189
00:07:35,413 --> 00:07:37,749
- I'm loving it.
190
00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:39,292
Nice!
191
00:07:41,795 --> 00:07:43,963
Next up, Lifeline.
192
00:07:43,963 --> 00:07:46,091
Sudden death obstacle.
193
00:07:46,091 --> 00:07:47,926
One shot all the way through
the object.
194
00:07:49,552 --> 00:07:51,721
- Now we're talking about
a dull blade here.
195
00:07:51,721 --> 00:07:54,140
She needs to hit this thing
at an angle of velocity,
196
00:07:54,140 --> 00:07:55,475
and then she needs to pray
197
00:07:55,475 --> 00:07:57,310
that she's gonna go through,
198
00:07:57,310 --> 00:07:58,853
because this blade is probably
destroyed right now.
199
00:08:00,271 --> 00:08:02,023
- Bam, right through!
- Nice.
200
00:08:02,023 --> 00:08:05,610
She's here on a mission.
She has something to prove.
201
00:08:05,610 --> 00:08:07,070
- Stepping up to the tube.
202
00:08:07,070 --> 00:08:09,155
Can she generate the power
and force?
203
00:08:11,241 --> 00:08:12,742
She cannot.
204
00:08:12,742 --> 00:08:15,245
Lady Sensei taken down.
205
00:08:15,245 --> 00:08:16,621
- And that blade
is bouncing off.
206
00:08:16,621 --> 00:08:19,165
This tells me this blade
is dull.
207
00:08:19,165 --> 00:08:21,710
- Gerry.
- Hey.
208
00:08:21,710 --> 00:08:23,628
- You did a phenomenal job...
- Thank you.
209
00:08:23,628 --> 00:08:26,589
And you put this blade through
so much hell.
210
00:08:26,589 --> 00:08:28,133
Right here in your
sweet spot...
211
00:08:28,133 --> 00:08:29,551
- Yes.
212
00:08:29,551 --> 00:08:31,761
- There's not as much left.
213
00:08:31,761 --> 00:08:33,930
Unfortunately,
your time on Knife Fight...
214
00:08:33,930 --> 00:08:35,890
- No!
215
00:08:35,890 --> 00:08:38,893
- Ends here. We have to see
if this is far enough
216
00:08:38,893 --> 00:08:40,603
and if you made it here fast
enough
217
00:08:40,603 --> 00:08:42,230
to put you outside in Dead Run.
218
00:08:42,230 --> 00:08:43,982
Good luck.
- I thank you.
219
00:08:43,982 --> 00:08:46,109
I'm extremely happy
with my performance.
220
00:08:46,109 --> 00:08:47,652
It was an excellent course.
221
00:08:47,652 --> 00:08:49,487
It was a lot harder
than I thought,
222
00:08:49,487 --> 00:08:51,656
but I came in
with my head held high
223
00:08:51,656 --> 00:08:53,700
and I'm going home
the same way.
224
00:08:55,660 --> 00:08:58,329
- I'm Larry Clementz
from San Antonio, Texas.
225
00:08:58,329 --> 00:08:59,664
I'm 48 years old,
226
00:08:59,664 --> 00:09:00,790
and I've been forging blades
227
00:09:00,790 --> 00:09:02,375
since I was 14 years old.
228
00:09:02,375 --> 00:09:03,626
I've been into martial arts
229
00:09:03,626 --> 00:09:05,795
since I was nine years old.
230
00:09:05,795 --> 00:09:07,756
Weapons and my training
have been a part of my life
231
00:09:07,756 --> 00:09:09,174
from the beginning.
232
00:09:09,174 --> 00:09:11,551
For 48, I feel very young
and capable.
233
00:09:11,551 --> 00:09:13,386
- What do you got there?
- I got a kukri.
234
00:09:13,386 --> 00:09:15,221
My favorite blade.
- All right.
235
00:09:15,221 --> 00:09:18,183
- The kukri is by far
the best opportunity
236
00:09:18,183 --> 00:09:19,851
for a combative success
237
00:09:19,851 --> 00:09:21,436
because the blade is designed
238
00:09:21,436 --> 00:09:23,146
specifically to be
in alignment
239
00:09:23,146 --> 00:09:24,522
with the wrist,
in alignment with the body
240
00:09:24,522 --> 00:09:26,274
when you're moving.
241
00:09:26,274 --> 00:09:27,817
- Now who made this blade?
- I made this blade.
242
00:09:27,817 --> 00:09:30,278
- Awesome.
So, when you're designing
243
00:09:30,278 --> 00:09:32,697
this blade,
was this specific built
244
00:09:32,697 --> 00:09:34,074
for this competition?
245
00:09:34,074 --> 00:09:35,408
- Absolutely.
246
00:09:37,660 --> 00:09:39,829
- I'm feeling the handle,
and there's a lot of contouring
247
00:09:39,829 --> 00:09:41,539
that...
248
00:09:41,539 --> 00:09:44,584
let's just say it doesn't fit
my hand.
249
00:09:44,584 --> 00:09:46,044
It's extremely short.
250
00:09:46,044 --> 00:09:48,254
This curve is a large radius
251
00:09:48,254 --> 00:09:51,216
which it means it binds
my finger
252
00:09:51,216 --> 00:09:53,927
and it's being crammed up
against bare steel,
253
00:09:53,927 --> 00:09:56,513
so there's nothing to protect
my pinky.
254
00:09:56,513 --> 00:09:58,681
Had this bird's head feature
255
00:09:58,681 --> 00:10:01,059
been wood
or had wood come all the way
256
00:10:01,059 --> 00:10:03,144
around here to protect
the finger,
257
00:10:03,144 --> 00:10:05,563
we wouldn't have
as much conversation.
258
00:10:05,563 --> 00:10:07,524
And it's kind of hindered
because we have this hole
259
00:10:07,524 --> 00:10:09,734
that my pinky would go through,
but I would never put
260
00:10:09,734 --> 00:10:11,945
it in there because
I would hate to see somebody
261
00:10:11,945 --> 00:10:14,739
put a finger in there
and have it just broken off
262
00:10:14,739 --> 00:10:16,825
and have to retrieve
a broken finger.
263
00:10:16,825 --> 00:10:18,076
I'm gonna strap into it
264
00:10:18,076 --> 00:10:19,452
and I'm gonna take
a few swings.
265
00:10:19,452 --> 00:10:20,787
- Sounds like a plan.
266
00:10:28,419 --> 00:10:30,255
- Okay.
267
00:10:39,430 --> 00:10:41,432
If I were going frantic
on a course with this knife,
268
00:10:41,432 --> 00:10:43,226
I'd mess myself up.
269
00:10:45,270 --> 00:10:47,105
This is something
270
00:10:47,105 --> 00:10:49,983
that is incredibly dangerous
as it sits.
271
00:10:49,983 --> 00:10:51,776
While it's
a beautiful knife
272
00:10:51,776 --> 00:10:53,695
there's too many elements
on the handle
273
00:10:53,695 --> 00:10:55,780
that make it dangerous
to the wielder.
274
00:10:55,780 --> 00:10:58,491
This blade does not make
the cut.
275
00:10:58,491 --> 00:11:00,410
- It is absolutely
a disappointment
276
00:11:00,410 --> 00:11:03,163
that I didn't get a chance
to show my combative skills
277
00:11:03,163 --> 00:11:05,498
and my--my strength
with a blade.
278
00:11:05,498 --> 00:11:07,041
If given the opportunity,
I will come back
279
00:11:07,041 --> 00:11:08,626
with a blade that Travis
will appreciate.
280
00:11:08,626 --> 00:11:10,253
- I'm Thomas Mombert.
I'm 28 years old,
281
00:11:10,253 --> 00:11:12,005
and I'm from New York.
282
00:11:12,005 --> 00:11:13,756
I've been forging for
about four years.
283
00:11:13,756 --> 00:11:15,091
I actually ended getting
into blades
284
00:11:15,091 --> 00:11:16,885
because of "Forged in Fire"
285
00:11:16,885 --> 00:11:19,637
I have a very large collection
of over 100 blades
286
00:11:19,637 --> 00:11:20,722
including everything
from balisongs
287
00:11:20,722 --> 00:11:22,182
to bowie knives to swords.
288
00:11:22,182 --> 00:11:23,391
- So what do you got there?
289
00:11:23,391 --> 00:11:24,726
- I have a custom-made knife.
290
00:11:24,726 --> 00:11:26,269
It's a large chopper.
291
00:11:26,269 --> 00:11:28,771
I brought a 17-inch bladed
chopper.
292
00:11:28,771 --> 00:11:30,440
It's made of 1095 carbon steel
293
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:31,816
and it's 23 inches overall.
294
00:11:31,816 --> 00:11:32,984
- This is about three inches
wide right?
295
00:11:32,984 --> 00:11:34,694
- Yeah.
296
00:11:34,694 --> 00:11:37,530
- Kind of a deceptively light
knife for the size.
297
00:11:37,530 --> 00:11:39,449
And it has a, basically,
tennis grip handle.
298
00:11:39,449 --> 00:11:41,576
And I like the shape of this.
299
00:11:41,576 --> 00:11:43,453
This paddle allows
the back side of my palm
300
00:11:43,453 --> 00:11:45,330
to control the knife.
301
00:11:45,330 --> 00:11:46,581
I'm happy to strap in
this sucker
302
00:11:46,581 --> 00:11:47,832
and give it a few tests swings
303
00:11:47,832 --> 00:11:48,958
on that tatami.
304
00:11:48,958 --> 00:11:50,168
- All right.
305
00:11:56,466 --> 00:11:58,676
- This knife develops
great power.
306
00:11:58,676 --> 00:12:00,345
It has a nice, fine,
sharp edge.
307
00:12:00,345 --> 00:12:02,347
This is a very good
cutting knife.
308
00:12:02,347 --> 00:12:04,432
So congratulations.
- Thanks, Travis.
309
00:12:04,432 --> 00:12:06,184
- Your knife makes the cut.
- Thank you.
310
00:12:06,184 --> 00:12:08,269
- Good luck.
- Thank you.
311
00:12:08,269 --> 00:12:10,063
I'm worried that I have
to keep myself under control,
312
00:12:10,063 --> 00:12:11,773
and I need to slow down,
313
00:12:11,773 --> 00:12:13,691
concentrate on each obstacle
individually
314
00:12:13,691 --> 00:12:15,526
and not worry about rushing
through the competition.
315
00:12:18,821 --> 00:12:21,699
- Big Bad Tom Mombert.
316
00:12:21,699 --> 00:12:24,077
If he ain't at work,
he's at the gym.
317
00:12:24,077 --> 00:12:25,912
Chemical operator, bladesmith,
318
00:12:25,912 --> 00:12:27,664
and bushcrafter.
319
00:12:27,664 --> 00:12:30,375
- He comes today with
a hybrid chopper.
320
00:12:30,375 --> 00:12:32,835
This blade is very light
for his size.
321
00:12:32,835 --> 00:12:36,047
I see him swinging
this blade very fast.
322
00:12:36,047 --> 00:12:39,550
- Tom Mombert steps up
and takes on Trifecta.
323
00:12:39,550 --> 00:12:41,344
He's gotta cut through each
of the targets
324
00:12:41,344 --> 00:12:42,720
at each of the stations.
325
00:12:42,720 --> 00:12:44,889
First up, a 2x4.
326
00:12:44,889 --> 00:12:46,641
- He's doubled up on his grip.
327
00:12:46,641 --> 00:12:48,351
Getting more power
to the swing.
328
00:12:50,979 --> 00:12:52,605
- Lot of power.
Lot of effort.
329
00:12:52,605 --> 00:12:54,274
- There's a lot of power there.
330
00:12:54,274 --> 00:12:55,817
- Right through the 2x4--
one swing
331
00:12:55,817 --> 00:12:57,360
right through the PVC.
332
00:12:57,360 --> 00:12:58,820
One swing right through
the rope.
333
00:12:58,820 --> 00:13:00,655
Boy, that was a quick time.
334
00:13:00,655 --> 00:13:02,907
Tom Mombert, on to Box Cutter.
335
00:13:02,907 --> 00:13:04,659
Here he goes.
336
00:13:04,659 --> 00:13:06,786
He needs to actually cut
the wooden boxes in half.
337
00:13:06,786 --> 00:13:08,579
Double-handed strike.
There he goes.
338
00:13:08,579 --> 00:13:10,415
Lot of the contents are out.
339
00:13:10,415 --> 00:13:12,125
Oop, whiff there. Strike one.
340
00:13:12,125 --> 00:13:14,627
Okay, back on it.
341
00:13:14,627 --> 00:13:16,546
- He's relentless.
342
00:13:16,546 --> 00:13:18,047
- He's relentless,
but he's got to finish it off
343
00:13:18,047 --> 00:13:19,799
before he goes on
box number two.
344
00:13:19,799 --> 00:13:21,592
There he goes.
Box number two,
345
00:13:21,592 --> 00:13:23,928
does it have a shot against
Tom Mombert?
346
00:13:26,681 --> 00:13:29,142
He's almost through that box.
347
00:13:30,768 --> 00:13:33,396
Getting tired there.
348
00:13:33,396 --> 00:13:37,233
Yep, I see him slowing down.
- He is getting tired.
349
00:13:37,233 --> 00:13:38,943
- We're all about destruction
here
350
00:13:38,943 --> 00:13:40,820
as Tom Mombert destroys
that second box,
351
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:42,363
and he's through.
352
00:13:42,363 --> 00:13:44,365
Next up, Decapitator.
353
00:13:44,365 --> 00:13:46,826
- He's got to cut all the way
through all of the objects
354
00:13:46,826 --> 00:13:48,703
with one strike.
355
00:13:50,079 --> 00:13:52,665
Boom! Great Job.
- Nice.
356
00:13:52,665 --> 00:13:55,126
Nice.
- Terrific job there.
357
00:13:55,126 --> 00:13:56,919
Ah, two for three.
- Little bit off.
358
00:13:56,919 --> 00:13:58,629
- Took his time on
the first two.
359
00:13:58,629 --> 00:14:00,465
Rushed on the third
and got a penalty.
360
00:14:00,465 --> 00:14:02,633
Next up, Thrice.
361
00:14:02,633 --> 00:14:05,928
Let's see how quickly he can
cut through all three.
362
00:14:08,765 --> 00:14:10,308
Whoa, two strikes
right through!
363
00:14:12,852 --> 00:14:14,687
One strike right through!
364
00:14:14,687 --> 00:14:17,523
Another one! Boom, boom!
Two strikes right through.
365
00:14:17,523 --> 00:14:18,983
Makes it through Thrice.
- That's a lot of power.
366
00:14:18,983 --> 00:14:21,611
- Lot of power.
Lot of precision, man.
367
00:14:21,611 --> 00:14:23,154
As he steps up to Lifeline,
368
00:14:23,154 --> 00:14:24,947
one strike through the object.
369
00:14:28,117 --> 00:14:30,078
One strike right through
the chicken.
370
00:14:30,078 --> 00:14:32,580
- He has the power,
long as he picks the angle.
371
00:14:32,580 --> 00:14:34,165
- Boom!
Right through the tube!
372
00:14:37,293 --> 00:14:38,920
Right through the fish!
- Nice.
373
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:40,630
- Great job on Lifeline.
374
00:14:40,630 --> 00:14:42,590
Moving on to Killshot.
375
00:14:42,590 --> 00:14:45,760
Three slices to get through
six ratchet straps.
376
00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,553
- It's all about the slash.
377
00:14:47,553 --> 00:14:49,347
It's not about the chop,
so it's a different type
378
00:14:49,347 --> 00:14:51,015
of approach here.
379
00:14:51,015 --> 00:14:53,893
- This is a near perfect run
so far.
380
00:14:53,893 --> 00:14:56,896
Here he goes!
One shot.
381
00:14:56,896 --> 00:14:59,607
Here he goes!
One shot.
382
00:14:59,607 --> 00:15:00,775
Two shots!
383
00:15:00,775 --> 00:15:02,693
Three more.
Can he do it?
384
00:15:05,613 --> 00:15:07,323
Oh! Beautiful job!
- Yes!
385
00:15:07,323 --> 00:15:08,866
- What a great recovery!
386
00:15:08,866 --> 00:15:10,952
Tom Mombert, on through
Knife Fight.
387
00:15:10,952 --> 00:15:13,788
- That's a fast time.
388
00:15:13,788 --> 00:15:16,290
- This guy only had one penalty
going through Knife Fight.
389
00:15:16,290 --> 00:15:18,334
- Tom.
- Yeah.
390
00:15:18,334 --> 00:15:22,338
- You were some cauliflower
away from about a perfect run.
391
00:15:22,338 --> 00:15:24,507
Congratulations on finishing
Knife Fight.
392
00:15:24,507 --> 00:15:26,384
- Thank you.
Thank you.
393
00:15:26,384 --> 00:15:28,219
Appreciate it.
394
00:15:28,219 --> 00:15:29,887
Oh, my God. The adrenaline.
It's insane.
395
00:15:29,887 --> 00:15:31,180
I've been on roller coasters
and not felt even
396
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:33,015
half of this.
This is--
397
00:15:33,015 --> 00:15:34,433
I can't--
398
00:15:34,433 --> 00:15:35,893
I want to do it again,
399
00:15:35,893 --> 00:15:37,103
but I'm like,
"No, I don't want
400
00:15:37,103 --> 00:15:39,605
to put myself through that."
401
00:15:39,605 --> 00:15:42,483
- I'm John Landry.
I'm from Lake Worth, Florida,
402
00:15:42,483 --> 00:15:44,193
and I'm 53 years old.
403
00:15:44,193 --> 00:15:46,112
I have been practicing
martial arts
404
00:15:46,112 --> 00:15:48,156
for about 44 years.
405
00:15:48,156 --> 00:15:49,782
This uniform I'm wearing today
406
00:15:49,782 --> 00:15:51,617
really expresses
the ninja warrior
407
00:15:51,617 --> 00:15:54,787
and the spirit that I feel
when I practice ninjutsu.
408
00:15:54,787 --> 00:15:56,372
- So what do you got there?
409
00:15:56,372 --> 00:15:58,374
- This is shinobi katana.
410
00:15:58,374 --> 00:15:59,834
The sword is different
411
00:15:59,834 --> 00:16:01,794
than the regular
samurai katana
412
00:16:01,794 --> 00:16:04,130
in the fact that it's shorter,
it has a straighter
413
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:06,924
shape to it, it does not have
a curved blade,
414
00:16:06,924 --> 00:16:09,677
and the hand guard is square,
not round.
415
00:16:09,677 --> 00:16:12,388
- Traditional curve of
a katana there
416
00:16:12,388 --> 00:16:15,975
creates a slicing cut
as we go through.
417
00:16:15,975 --> 00:16:17,852
And with the straighter blade
418
00:16:17,852 --> 00:16:19,687
this is something intended
419
00:16:19,687 --> 00:16:23,733
for pushing through or slicing.
420
00:16:23,733 --> 00:16:25,610
So I'm just gonna wind this up.
421
00:16:29,071 --> 00:16:31,616
So this sword swings
beautifully.
422
00:16:31,616 --> 00:16:34,911
The edge geometry
is as beautiful as the blade,
423
00:16:34,911 --> 00:16:37,413
and thanks
for letting me swing it.
424
00:16:37,413 --> 00:16:39,457
Congratulations.
- Thank you.
425
00:16:39,457 --> 00:16:41,209
- This definitely
makes the cut.
426
00:16:41,209 --> 00:16:43,169
- Appreciate it.
427
00:16:43,169 --> 00:16:45,880
I'm not too worried about
the rope and the wood.
428
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,132
That ice could be an issue.
429
00:16:48,132 --> 00:16:49,717
- There he is, John Landry.
430
00:16:49,717 --> 00:16:51,594
Full-time public school
teacher,
431
00:16:51,594 --> 00:16:54,513
martial arts instructor,
former law enforcement officer.
432
00:16:54,513 --> 00:16:57,225
- John comes today
with a shinobi sword.
433
00:16:57,225 --> 00:16:59,018
This is a straightedge blade
434
00:16:59,018 --> 00:17:00,895
which makes it more of
an impact type of blade,
435
00:17:00,895 --> 00:17:04,273
versus the katana which
is more of a slashing blade.
436
00:17:04,273 --> 00:17:06,400
I don't know how it's gonna do
against this competition.
437
00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:08,319
- First up, Trifecta.
438
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:13,783
Right through the PVC.
439
00:17:13,783 --> 00:17:16,619
On to number two.
440
00:17:16,619 --> 00:17:18,621
Takes out the rope.
441
00:17:18,621 --> 00:17:20,706
On to the 2x4.
442
00:17:20,706 --> 00:17:22,792
- He needs to come in
a little bit more of an angle
443
00:17:22,792 --> 00:17:25,002
and create that gap.
444
00:17:25,002 --> 00:17:27,004
- There you go.
445
00:17:27,004 --> 00:17:30,091
He must have been listening
to you.
446
00:17:30,091 --> 00:17:32,218
Took care of Trifecta.
447
00:17:32,218 --> 00:17:34,387
John Landry steps up
to Box Cutter.
448
00:17:34,387 --> 00:17:37,181
He needs to actually cut
the wooden boxes in half.
449
00:17:37,181 --> 00:17:40,643
- Wow.
450
00:17:40,643 --> 00:17:43,229
- Okay, here he goes.
He's generating some force.
451
00:17:43,229 --> 00:17:45,565
Not much damage to the box yet.
452
00:17:45,565 --> 00:17:47,525
He's staying stationary.
453
00:17:47,525 --> 00:17:49,569
He's the only competitor
we've seen
454
00:17:49,569 --> 00:17:52,196
to stay in one spot and wait
for the box to move around.
455
00:17:53,906 --> 00:17:56,993
- Nice. Nice, big hit.
456
00:17:56,993 --> 00:17:58,578
Looks like he's moving on.
- He's moving on.
457
00:17:58,578 --> 00:18:00,538
- Yep, and all the work he did
on that box,
458
00:18:00,538 --> 00:18:02,248
he still gets a penalty.
459
00:18:05,293 --> 00:18:07,420
He is slowing down
considerably.
460
00:18:07,420 --> 00:18:09,297
- The longer he stays here
the faster
461
00:18:09,297 --> 00:18:11,257
that blade's gonna get dull.
462
00:18:11,257 --> 00:18:13,801
- Looks like he is wasting
a lot of time.
463
00:18:18,180 --> 00:18:20,850
John Landry moves on past
Box Cutters.
464
00:18:20,850 --> 00:18:22,768
- I really think
he's realizing this is not
465
00:18:22,768 --> 00:18:24,437
the blade for this type
of competition.
466
00:18:24,437 --> 00:18:26,355
This is a straightedge blade
467
00:18:26,355 --> 00:18:27,982
versus the katana
that has a bend
468
00:18:27,982 --> 00:18:29,817
on the spine of the blade.
469
00:18:29,817 --> 00:18:31,777
- Next up, Decapitator.
470
00:18:31,777 --> 00:18:34,071
You got to cut all the way
through all of the objects.
471
00:18:34,071 --> 00:18:35,698
- He studies the art of
ninjutsu.
472
00:18:35,698 --> 00:18:37,408
They're all about angles.
If he's able
473
00:18:37,408 --> 00:18:40,202
to get that horizontal cut,
he should be good.
474
00:18:40,202 --> 00:18:42,455
- Did not complete it.
Penalty number one.
475
00:18:45,750 --> 00:18:46,959
- Wow!
- Took his time on that one.
476
00:18:46,959 --> 00:18:47,918
Great shot.
477
00:18:52,506 --> 00:18:54,717
Two penalties.
His aim was off.
478
00:18:54,717 --> 00:18:57,595
John Landry moves on to Thrice.
479
00:18:57,595 --> 00:18:59,347
We talk about compromising
your blade.
480
00:18:59,347 --> 00:19:01,349
Well, these three ice blocks,
481
00:19:01,349 --> 00:19:03,267
they're gonna compromise it
quite a bit.
482
00:19:03,267 --> 00:19:05,353
- Absolutely, though, I mean,
this blade
483
00:19:05,353 --> 00:19:07,438
is not a heavy mass blade,
484
00:19:07,438 --> 00:19:09,273
so he has to generate
the power.
485
00:19:11,484 --> 00:19:13,694
- Decapitated one.
486
00:19:13,694 --> 00:19:15,196
- Wow!
Look at that swing.
487
00:19:15,196 --> 00:19:17,281
That's a lot of power.
488
00:19:19,825 --> 00:19:21,786
- On to the third.
489
00:19:21,786 --> 00:19:23,829
Boom! Right through.
- Yes!
490
00:19:23,829 --> 00:19:25,498
- Nice--made it through.
- He made it through.
491
00:19:25,498 --> 00:19:29,001
- John Landry moves on
to Lifeline.
492
00:19:29,001 --> 00:19:31,045
Remember, he must cut through
all three objects.
493
00:19:31,045 --> 00:19:33,798
One cut, or you're done.
494
00:19:35,299 --> 00:19:36,926
- Nice.
- That was an easy slice
495
00:19:36,926 --> 00:19:38,886
right through the chicken.
496
00:19:38,886 --> 00:19:40,179
Boom!
Right through the tubing.
497
00:19:40,179 --> 00:19:41,806
Next up, the fish.
498
00:19:46,268 --> 00:19:47,645
- Yes!
- Yes, he did.
499
00:19:47,645 --> 00:19:49,146
Clean cut.
500
00:19:49,146 --> 00:19:50,815
- Look at those angles, Bill.
501
00:19:50,815 --> 00:19:52,692
That is a practitioner
of ninjutsu.
502
00:19:52,692 --> 00:19:54,652
They're all about levels
and dropping angles.
503
00:19:54,652 --> 00:19:57,613
- John's stepping up
to Killshot.
504
00:19:57,613 --> 00:20:01,033
Three chances to cut through
six different ratchet straps.
505
00:20:01,033 --> 00:20:03,619
- He needs a slashing hit
more than an impact hit.
506
00:20:03,619 --> 00:20:05,705
This is a straightedge blade
which makes it more
507
00:20:05,705 --> 00:20:07,206
of an impact type of blade.
508
00:20:09,125 --> 00:20:12,211
- Okay, one down.
509
00:20:12,211 --> 00:20:14,338
Now he's got one strike
to get through four straps.
510
00:20:14,338 --> 00:20:16,173
- He needs to open up
the swing.
511
00:20:18,801 --> 00:20:20,928
- Oh, that's an impact hit.
512
00:20:20,928 --> 00:20:23,597
- Yeah, that was an impact hit
and it was not
513
00:20:23,597 --> 00:20:25,599
what was needed
to complete Killshot,
514
00:20:25,599 --> 00:20:28,018
and it stops him in
his tracks.
515
00:20:28,018 --> 00:20:30,354
- I'm happy with
my performance.
516
00:20:30,354 --> 00:20:32,982
The design of my blade,
it's not as good for slashing
517
00:20:32,982 --> 00:20:34,734
as a curved blade is,
518
00:20:34,734 --> 00:20:36,610
but it did the job.
519
00:20:36,610 --> 00:20:38,696
Except for those straps.
520
00:20:38,696 --> 00:20:40,448
My nemesis.
521
00:20:40,448 --> 00:20:42,241
- I'm Henry Hill, 46 years old,
522
00:20:42,241 --> 00:20:44,243
from Fresno, California.
523
00:20:44,243 --> 00:20:46,620
I'm an Army veteran
and a martial arts instructor.
524
00:20:46,620 --> 00:20:48,247
To prepare for this event,
I've been doing a lot
525
00:20:48,247 --> 00:20:49,665
of live action role-playing.
526
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:50,916
I'm wearing an African dashiki
527
00:20:50,916 --> 00:20:52,793
because it actually represents
528
00:20:52,793 --> 00:20:54,670
a lot of the African martial
arts work that I do.
529
00:20:54,670 --> 00:20:55,838
- So what do you got there?
530
00:20:55,838 --> 00:20:57,840
- It's a fantasy cutter.
531
00:20:57,840 --> 00:20:59,550
The blade that I'm bringing,
I thought it would be
532
00:20:59,550 --> 00:21:02,928
a good design to bring
to this kind of event
533
00:21:02,928 --> 00:21:05,931
because it is very conducive
to my style and how I fight.
534
00:21:05,931 --> 00:21:07,767
- We have an 18-inch blade,
and I would say
535
00:21:07,767 --> 00:21:09,018
that that handle is just
as long.
536
00:21:09,018 --> 00:21:10,811
- Yes.
537
00:21:10,811 --> 00:21:13,189
- I can put my hands in
multiple places
538
00:21:13,189 --> 00:21:16,025
and there's just plenty
of safe options
539
00:21:16,025 --> 00:21:20,029
and a lot of handle
to wield this many ways.
540
00:21:20,029 --> 00:21:21,739
Let's try it out.
- All right.
541
00:21:25,117 --> 00:21:26,869
- This is a blade
542
00:21:26,869 --> 00:21:29,747
with simple performance
characteristics
543
00:21:29,747 --> 00:21:31,749
and very versatile.
544
00:21:31,749 --> 00:21:34,502
Congratulations.
Your knife makes the cut.
545
00:21:34,502 --> 00:21:36,253
- Thank you.
I'm ready.
546
00:21:36,253 --> 00:21:38,047
I've been anticipating this
for a while now.
547
00:21:38,047 --> 00:21:40,883
So let's--get started.
Let's go do it.
548
00:21:40,883 --> 00:21:44,094
- Henry Hill IV,
46 years old,
549
00:21:44,094 --> 00:21:45,930
full-time student,
got into martial arts,
550
00:21:45,930 --> 00:21:49,016
and joining the army
as a way to get off drugs
551
00:21:49,016 --> 00:21:50,976
He's very confident.
552
00:21:50,976 --> 00:21:52,186
- Let's talk about the blade.
553
00:21:52,186 --> 00:21:53,521
What I like about this blade
554
00:21:53,521 --> 00:21:55,272
is the geometry of the handle.
555
00:21:55,272 --> 00:21:57,274
If he milks towards
the heel of the handle,
556
00:21:57,274 --> 00:21:59,610
it's gonna allow him
that chopping power
557
00:21:59,610 --> 00:22:01,195
that we usually find
from a kukri.
558
00:22:01,195 --> 00:22:02,363
If he milks up the handle
559
00:22:02,363 --> 00:22:04,156
on the top towards the guard,
560
00:22:04,156 --> 00:22:06,033
it's gonna give him
that slash and impact weapon.
561
00:22:06,033 --> 00:22:08,160
- First up, Trifecta.
562
00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:10,746
Remember, the competitor must
cut three objects in half
563
00:22:10,746 --> 00:22:12,623
releasing the falling torches.
564
00:22:12,623 --> 00:22:14,583
Okay, Henry Hill
stepping up with
565
00:22:14,583 --> 00:22:17,378
one of the coolest blades
we've seen on "Knife or Death."
566
00:22:17,378 --> 00:22:20,047
Here we go with the 2x4.
567
00:22:20,047 --> 00:22:21,173
There we go.
- Wow!
568
00:22:21,173 --> 00:22:22,466
- Beautiful strike.
569
00:22:24,885 --> 00:22:28,472
Two very powerful strikes
there.
570
00:22:28,472 --> 00:22:30,140
- Let's talk about design.
571
00:22:30,140 --> 00:22:33,853
- Very simple design,
but very, very effective.
572
00:22:33,853 --> 00:22:35,813
- If he milks up the handle
on the top towards the guard,
573
00:22:35,813 --> 00:22:38,482
it's gonna give him
that slash impact.
574
00:22:38,482 --> 00:22:41,068
- And he's through Trifecta
onto Box Cutter.
575
00:22:41,068 --> 00:22:43,404
May see a problem here
with the design of that blade,
576
00:22:43,404 --> 00:22:46,365
even though there is a lot
of blade real estate.
577
00:22:46,365 --> 00:22:48,492
- He's hitting it too high,
Bill.
578
00:22:48,492 --> 00:22:50,619
- It's not able to generate
enough power,
579
00:22:50,619 --> 00:22:52,329
I don't believe.
580
00:22:52,329 --> 00:22:54,999
- Wow!
- Beautiful strike.
581
00:22:54,999 --> 00:22:56,542
He's almost through
that box.
582
00:22:59,169 --> 00:23:01,714
- Oh, he got it!
- Yes, he did.
583
00:23:01,714 --> 00:23:04,216
- Wow, he's really winded.
584
00:23:04,216 --> 00:23:06,635
That's why cardio
is so important
585
00:23:06,635 --> 00:23:07,678
when it comes to
this competition.
586
00:23:07,678 --> 00:23:08,804
I mean, he's taking a break
587
00:23:08,804 --> 00:23:10,431
in between swinging this box.
588
00:23:10,431 --> 00:23:13,392
He's just accumulating
more time.
589
00:23:13,392 --> 00:23:15,728
- There he goes.
He crosses the line Box Cutter.
590
00:23:15,728 --> 00:23:17,938
He got one penalty right there.
591
00:23:17,938 --> 00:23:20,608
Catching some breath.
592
00:23:20,608 --> 00:23:22,776
- Definitely his cardio
came into play here.
593
00:23:22,776 --> 00:23:25,279
It didn't give him the clarity
he needed.
594
00:23:25,279 --> 00:23:27,990
- He steps up to Decapitator.
595
00:23:27,990 --> 00:23:29,617
- With the long handle
596
00:23:29,617 --> 00:23:32,453
if he locks in that blade
to his hip line
597
00:23:32,453 --> 00:23:35,331
drop its level and swing
with his whole body
598
00:23:35,331 --> 00:23:38,292
at the horizontal plane,
he should be all right.
599
00:23:38,292 --> 00:23:40,127
- Missed that one.
600
00:23:40,127 --> 00:23:42,630
- He has one shot.
His accuracy's not there.
601
00:23:44,298 --> 00:23:47,051
- The peppers kicked his butt.
602
00:23:47,051 --> 00:23:48,510
- Oh, he got it!
603
00:23:48,510 --> 00:23:50,387
He barely made it through.
604
00:23:53,182 --> 00:23:55,392
- And it looks like
the pineapple did it.
605
00:23:57,561 --> 00:24:00,022
- Two for three
at Decapitator.
606
00:24:00,022 --> 00:24:02,441
Henry Hill searching for air,
607
00:24:02,441 --> 00:24:05,569
and he's gonna need it
as he steps up to Thrice.
608
00:24:05,569 --> 00:24:07,404
Remember the competitor
must cut completely
609
00:24:07,404 --> 00:24:09,907
through all three
blocks of ice in order.
610
00:24:14,119 --> 00:24:16,664
- With the long handle giving
him that leverage he needs
611
00:24:16,664 --> 00:24:17,915
to cut through.
612
00:24:17,915 --> 00:24:19,541
- First one down!
613
00:24:19,541 --> 00:24:21,126
He moved on
to the wrong target.
614
00:24:21,126 --> 00:24:22,419
That is a penalty.
615
00:24:25,547 --> 00:24:27,049
Third one down!
616
00:24:27,049 --> 00:24:28,842
You have to pay attention
to the rules.
617
00:24:28,842 --> 00:24:30,678
Stepping up next, Lifeline.
618
00:24:30,678 --> 00:24:32,388
One strike through the object
619
00:24:32,388 --> 00:24:34,515
or he's instantly going home.
620
00:24:34,515 --> 00:24:35,975
Here he goes,
Henry Hill IV
621
00:24:35,975 --> 00:24:37,142
steps up to the chicken.
622
00:24:37,142 --> 00:24:39,770
Can he do it?
623
00:24:39,770 --> 00:24:41,563
Yes, he can!
624
00:24:41,563 --> 00:24:43,941
Okay, stepping up the tubing.
625
00:24:43,941 --> 00:24:45,442
Boom!
Right through the tubing.
626
00:24:45,442 --> 00:24:46,986
Very impressive.
- Oh, Bill, he's tired.
627
00:24:46,986 --> 00:24:50,739
- He is very tired,
and he needs to gather
628
00:24:50,739 --> 00:24:52,950
all of his senses for this one.
629
00:24:55,411 --> 00:24:58,163
Whap! Right through it. Boom!
- Wow.
630
00:24:58,163 --> 00:25:02,835
- He is slowly sauntering over
to Killshot.
631
00:25:02,835 --> 00:25:05,129
Three chances to cut through
six straps.
632
00:25:05,129 --> 00:25:07,589
I don't know if he can cut
through one right now.
633
00:25:07,589 --> 00:25:10,926
- This blade is doing
a majority of the work for him.
634
00:25:10,926 --> 00:25:12,636
- Okay, two down.
635
00:25:12,636 --> 00:25:14,930
One strike.
636
00:25:14,930 --> 00:25:17,182
Oh, beautiful recovery!
- Wow!
637
00:25:20,310 --> 00:25:22,438
- Only one strap between
Henry Hill
638
00:25:22,438 --> 00:25:24,898
and the completion
of Knife Fight.
639
00:25:24,898 --> 00:25:26,817
Oh, my God!
640
00:25:26,817 --> 00:25:28,193
Oh, my--
641
00:25:28,193 --> 00:25:29,862
He was so close.
642
00:25:29,862 --> 00:25:31,739
- He went towards
the impact swing
643
00:25:31,739 --> 00:25:33,907
versus a slashing swing
on the last one.
644
00:25:33,907 --> 00:25:35,909
- My blade exceeded
my expectations.
645
00:25:35,909 --> 00:25:37,703
I couldn't ask
for anything more.
646
00:25:37,703 --> 00:25:39,371
If I had one more shot,
I'd kill it.
647
00:25:41,373 --> 00:25:43,792
- I am Myles Cup.
I am 28 years old.
648
00:25:43,792 --> 00:25:45,711
I study historical European
martial arts.
649
00:25:45,711 --> 00:25:47,337
I've always loved
the Renaissance,
650
00:25:47,337 --> 00:25:49,131
so being able to swing swords
651
00:25:49,131 --> 00:25:50,174
that were used in
the Renaissance
652
00:25:50,174 --> 00:25:51,675
is a way to get in touch
653
00:25:51,675 --> 00:25:52,885
with that time period
of history.
654
00:25:52,885 --> 00:25:54,762
Since I compete so frequently
655
00:25:54,762 --> 00:25:56,472
my fitness level
is pretty good.
656
00:25:56,472 --> 00:25:58,807
I hope that my training will
avail me well out there.
657
00:25:58,807 --> 00:26:01,643
- So what do you got there?
- I have a medieval longsword.
658
00:26:01,643 --> 00:26:03,187
It's a double-edged blade
659
00:26:03,187 --> 00:26:05,439
with a simple cruciform
style hilt.
660
00:26:05,439 --> 00:26:07,649
- This is a very nice piece.
661
00:26:07,649 --> 00:26:09,610
Now as I feel the edge
of this sword,
662
00:26:09,610 --> 00:26:11,153
it could be a little sharper
663
00:26:11,153 --> 00:26:13,363
and it's deceptively light.
664
00:26:13,363 --> 00:26:15,866
So this is a blade
that in proper hands
665
00:26:15,866 --> 00:26:17,826
can just be devastating.
666
00:26:17,826 --> 00:26:20,204
I'm gonna go ahead
and strap in and...
667
00:26:20,204 --> 00:26:21,538
- I'd love to see you have some
fun with it.
668
00:26:21,538 --> 00:26:23,582
- Yeah, well,
I look forward to it.
669
00:26:31,381 --> 00:26:33,467
You sword cuts very nice.
- Thank you.
670
00:26:33,467 --> 00:26:34,802
- But at the same time,
if the edge were
671
00:26:34,802 --> 00:26:36,678
a little bit sharper
672
00:26:36,678 --> 00:26:39,515
I think it would have gone even
on the backhand swing.
673
00:26:39,515 --> 00:26:42,184
Congratulations.
It definitely makes the cut.
674
00:26:42,184 --> 00:26:43,811
- Thank you, sir.
675
00:26:43,811 --> 00:26:45,354
Look forward to using it.
676
00:26:45,354 --> 00:26:47,022
I'm definitely concerned
677
00:26:47,022 --> 00:26:49,399
about the single
elimination obstacles.
678
00:26:49,399 --> 00:26:50,818
Those are the ones
that have got me sweating
679
00:26:50,818 --> 00:26:52,486
just a little bit.
680
00:26:52,486 --> 00:26:54,321
- 28-year-old Myles Cup
681
00:26:54,321 --> 00:26:57,032
steps up to Knife Fight.
682
00:26:57,032 --> 00:26:59,743
- Myles Cup comes to us
with a German longsword.
683
00:26:59,743 --> 00:27:03,080
36 inches.
It's a double-edged blade,
684
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,082
but it's not all that sharp.
685
00:27:05,082 --> 00:27:06,834
- You can see some
pretty impressive
686
00:27:06,834 --> 00:27:08,794
blade wielding skills,
687
00:27:08,794 --> 00:27:11,255
but is he emptying his tank
before the race starts?
688
00:27:11,255 --> 00:27:12,923
That's my question.
689
00:27:12,923 --> 00:27:15,259
- You know, Bill,
as he walks up to Trifecta,
690
00:27:15,259 --> 00:27:16,760
if he employs
the proper technique
691
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:18,053
he shouldn't have too much
problems.
692
00:27:18,053 --> 00:27:21,473
- Here he goes!
Right through.
693
00:27:21,473 --> 00:27:23,892
- Hai!
Hai!
694
00:27:23,892 --> 00:27:25,978
- 'Kay, having a bit of an
issue with the rope.
695
00:27:25,978 --> 00:27:29,064
Single strike right down,
not an angled cut.
696
00:27:29,064 --> 00:27:30,858
Here he is with the 2x4.
697
00:27:33,235 --> 00:27:34,862
He did get through it.
No penalties.
698
00:27:34,862 --> 00:27:36,280
- Yeah!
- I like his energy.
699
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,240
This blade is a fast blade.
700
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,617
- Next up, Box Cutter.
701
00:27:40,617 --> 00:27:42,077
Let's see what happens here.
702
00:27:42,077 --> 00:27:44,121
Can see the bend on it already.
703
00:27:46,874 --> 00:27:48,584
Getting good strikes.
Again, another competitor
704
00:27:48,584 --> 00:27:50,961
following the box.
705
00:27:50,961 --> 00:27:53,672
I don't like his footwork here.
706
00:27:53,672 --> 00:27:54,965
- Looks like he's controlling
the spin
707
00:27:54,965 --> 00:27:57,134
of this box with every strike.
708
00:27:57,134 --> 00:28:00,304
- Spending a lot of time on the
box. Not making much progress--
709
00:28:00,304 --> 00:28:03,098
Oh, there's--
progressive swing.
710
00:28:03,098 --> 00:28:05,225
That changed the landscape
right there.
711
00:28:05,225 --> 00:28:08,562
- Bill, he is getting winded.
712
00:28:08,562 --> 00:28:11,148
- Boom! He cut it in half.
713
00:28:11,148 --> 00:28:13,567
There he goes,
now he's on to box number two.
714
00:28:13,567 --> 00:28:15,444
Does he have better strategy
on this second box
715
00:28:15,444 --> 00:28:18,030
to get him through quicker?
716
00:28:18,030 --> 00:28:19,948
- He definitely slowed down,
Bill.
717
00:28:19,948 --> 00:28:23,368
- Oh, yeah, he has slowed down.
Not as powerful a strike.
718
00:28:23,368 --> 00:28:25,454
'Kay, he's about to take down
box number two.
719
00:28:25,454 --> 00:28:27,331
Very close!
720
00:28:30,250 --> 00:28:31,627
Well, there he goes.
- Nice!
721
00:28:31,627 --> 00:28:33,545
- Myles Cup
all the way through.
722
00:28:36,006 --> 00:28:37,758
Next up, Decapitator.
723
00:28:37,758 --> 00:28:39,468
- He's breathing hard, Bill.
724
00:28:39,468 --> 00:28:41,011
He has the length on
this blade.
725
00:28:41,011 --> 00:28:42,512
The sharpness of his blade.
Long as he lands
726
00:28:42,512 --> 00:28:45,807
the angles and the levels
he should be good.
727
00:28:45,807 --> 00:28:47,643
- First one,
did not complete it.
728
00:28:47,643 --> 00:28:49,186
Penalty number one.
729
00:28:51,355 --> 00:28:53,148
- Nice!
730
00:28:53,148 --> 00:28:55,943
- Looks like he got through
number two.
731
00:28:55,943 --> 00:28:57,945
Number three, penalty there.
732
00:28:57,945 --> 00:29:00,030
So one for three
at Decapitator.
733
00:29:00,030 --> 00:29:03,951
Moving onto Thrice.
Here he goes.
734
00:29:03,951 --> 00:29:05,702
Whoa! Two strikes through.
735
00:29:07,955 --> 00:29:09,706
He hit the wrong piece
of ice.
736
00:29:09,706 --> 00:29:11,959
You have to pay attention
to the rules too.
737
00:29:11,959 --> 00:29:13,919
Otherwise, it's a penalty.
738
00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,841
Right through.
Now Lifeline.
739
00:29:19,841 --> 00:29:22,094
Sudden death obstacle
that takes
740
00:29:22,094 --> 00:29:24,137
a competitor down.
741
00:29:24,137 --> 00:29:25,597
We got a bend in
the blade already.
742
00:29:25,597 --> 00:29:27,599
Let's see if it holds up.
743
00:29:29,184 --> 00:29:31,478
Bam! Right through.
744
00:29:31,478 --> 00:29:33,772
Perfect technique here
from the hamon guide.
745
00:29:33,772 --> 00:29:35,107
Stepping up to the tube.
746
00:29:37,484 --> 00:29:39,111
- This blade is holding up
well.
747
00:29:39,111 --> 00:29:41,279
The edge is still there.
748
00:29:41,279 --> 00:29:44,992
- Beautiful job on both
the chicken and the tubing.
749
00:29:44,992 --> 00:29:46,576
Boom, right through the fish.
- Nice!
750
00:29:46,576 --> 00:29:49,538
- Moving on, Killshot.
751
00:29:49,538 --> 00:29:52,124
- 36 inches of cutting edge
right here.
752
00:29:52,124 --> 00:29:54,167
Long as he understands
the blade real estate
753
00:29:54,167 --> 00:29:58,505
and utilizes slashing attack
versus an impact.
754
00:29:58,505 --> 00:30:01,758
- First one, back strike.
Got two straps.
755
00:30:01,758 --> 00:30:04,720
- This about angles of attack
and strategy here,
756
00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:05,721
not power.
757
00:30:06,805 --> 00:30:08,807
- Okay, he's being strategic
here.
758
00:30:08,807 --> 00:30:09,307
Beautiful job.
Beautiful job.
759
00:30:15,397 --> 00:30:17,482
Oh! He is moving on!
Myles Cup!
760
00:30:17,482 --> 00:30:19,109
- Great technique.
761
00:30:19,109 --> 00:30:21,486
- And his German longsword...
- Yeah!
762
00:30:21,486 --> 00:30:23,280
- To beat Knife Fight.
763
00:30:23,280 --> 00:30:24,990
- His choice in blade
definitely helped
764
00:30:24,990 --> 00:30:27,492
him out here today,
and he had great form
765
00:30:27,492 --> 00:30:29,119
in how he was able
to generate power
766
00:30:29,119 --> 00:30:30,912
in those short, explosive
movements.
767
00:30:30,912 --> 00:30:33,373
- As intense as I was hoping
it would be.
768
00:30:33,373 --> 00:30:35,625
I did what I set out to do.
I finished Knife Fight.
769
00:30:39,004 --> 00:30:41,214
- Gentlemen, each of you
tackled Knife Fight
770
00:30:41,214 --> 00:30:43,467
in your own, unique way.
771
00:30:43,467 --> 00:30:45,719
Only two of you made it
all the way through.
772
00:30:45,719 --> 00:30:47,054
Congratulations.
773
00:30:47,054 --> 00:30:49,890
So get your strategies
together
774
00:30:49,890 --> 00:30:52,059
and get your blades together,
775
00:30:52,059 --> 00:30:54,770
and get your ass ready
for Dead Run.
776
00:30:57,647 --> 00:31:00,025
While Knife Fight was
the ultimate test of blades,
777
00:31:00,025 --> 00:31:01,860
Death Run is the ultimate test
778
00:31:01,860 --> 00:31:05,405
of speed, timing, accuracy,
and precision.
779
00:31:05,405 --> 00:31:07,115
First up, Chopper.
780
00:31:07,115 --> 00:31:09,534
From inside the circular
platform you must
781
00:31:09,534 --> 00:31:12,037
cut each of the rotating
targets in half.
782
00:31:12,037 --> 00:31:16,333
You must complete each target
before moving on to the next.
783
00:31:16,333 --> 00:31:18,085
Ball Buster.
784
00:31:18,085 --> 00:31:20,212
Slice nine rolling balls
in half
785
00:31:20,212 --> 00:31:22,047
before they hit the floor.
786
00:31:22,047 --> 00:31:23,673
- Flying Target.
787
00:31:23,673 --> 00:31:25,175
Cut the rope,
release the meat,
788
00:31:25,175 --> 00:31:26,676
cut the meat on
the down swing,
789
00:31:26,676 --> 00:31:28,178
and land it on
the metal grate.
790
00:31:28,178 --> 00:31:30,305
Miss the grate
or it bounces off,
791
00:31:30,305 --> 00:31:32,057
it's a penalty.
792
00:31:32,057 --> 00:31:33,975
Free Fall.
You cut each piece of fruit
793
00:31:33,975 --> 00:31:36,728
as it drops.
794
00:31:36,728 --> 00:31:38,897
Fire and Ice.
795
00:31:38,897 --> 00:31:40,816
Cut completely through
the 400 pound block of ice
796
00:31:40,816 --> 00:31:43,902
to trigger the flame.
797
00:31:43,902 --> 00:31:45,821
- Next, Crash landing.
798
00:31:45,821 --> 00:31:47,697
Cut completely through
the flying targets
799
00:31:47,697 --> 00:31:49,658
as they zip past you.
800
00:31:49,658 --> 00:31:52,619
Then a giant crate descends
to block your path.
801
00:31:52,619 --> 00:31:54,371
Destroy it,
release the contents,
802
00:31:54,371 --> 00:31:56,331
and move on.
803
00:31:56,331 --> 00:31:58,583
And finally, Fire Storm.
804
00:31:58,583 --> 00:32:00,585
Cut the two ropes to release
the platform,
805
00:32:00,585 --> 00:32:02,295
ascend the stairs,
806
00:32:02,295 --> 00:32:04,673
and stop the clock
with one final chop.
807
00:32:06,007 --> 00:32:07,509
Remember, in Dead Run
808
00:32:07,509 --> 00:32:09,511
the clock never stops.
809
00:32:09,511 --> 00:32:11,179
For every challenge
not completed
810
00:32:11,179 --> 00:32:13,682
a 20-second penalty
will be added.
811
00:32:13,682 --> 00:32:15,392
Now let's talk about these
two blades
812
00:32:15,392 --> 00:32:17,060
and how they stack up
against each other.
813
00:32:17,060 --> 00:32:19,855
- The longblade is definitely
a superior blade
814
00:32:19,855 --> 00:32:21,898
when it comes to the angles.
It can generate more power.
815
00:32:21,898 --> 00:32:24,734
But I tell you,
Tom's hybrid chopper is sharp,
816
00:32:24,734 --> 00:32:27,696
and he's really powerful
in his strikes.
817
00:32:27,696 --> 00:32:30,407
- Tom Mombert steps up
to Dead Run
818
00:32:30,407 --> 00:32:33,493
and if he does anything
like he did inside,
819
00:32:33,493 --> 00:32:36,079
we are in for a treat.
820
00:32:36,079 --> 00:32:38,832
- He comes today
with a hybrid chopper.
821
00:32:38,832 --> 00:32:41,084
This blade is very light
for his size.
822
00:32:41,084 --> 00:32:43,503
I see him swinging
this blade very fast.
823
00:32:43,503 --> 00:32:45,380
- My blade is looking awesome.
824
00:32:45,380 --> 00:32:47,340
Still razor sharp.
I think I have it.
825
00:32:47,340 --> 00:32:49,801
I have everything I need.
826
00:32:53,513 --> 00:32:55,015
- Okay, here he goes.
- OkaTom Mombertgoes.
827
00:32:55,015 --> 00:32:57,434
facing Dead Run.
First up, Chopper.
828
00:32:57,434 --> 00:33:01,062
He's got to chop through
those tatami mats, 1x3s.
829
00:33:01,062 --> 00:33:04,024
He's superseded technique
by using power.
830
00:33:04,024 --> 00:33:05,775
- Power. Just raw power.
831
00:33:05,775 --> 00:33:08,778
- We will see if he has
the endurance, though.
832
00:33:08,778 --> 00:33:13,575
Each strike makes
that blade more and more dull.
833
00:33:13,575 --> 00:33:14,993
- He's definitely spent
some time
834
00:33:14,993 --> 00:33:16,620
on this Chopper.
835
00:33:19,122 --> 00:33:20,624
- Boom, right through
the tatami mat.
836
00:33:23,251 --> 00:33:25,503
Through the second one.
837
00:33:25,503 --> 00:33:27,547
Onto the wood.
838
00:33:27,547 --> 00:33:31,092
Boom!
Right through that one.
839
00:33:31,092 --> 00:33:32,761
- There he goes. Nice.
- There he goes.
840
00:33:32,761 --> 00:33:35,388
He is through.
No penalties on Chopper.
841
00:33:35,388 --> 00:33:36,806
Stepping up to Ball Buster.
842
00:33:36,806 --> 00:33:38,600
He needs to slice nine balls
in half
843
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:39,809
before they hit the floor.
844
00:33:44,064 --> 00:33:45,774
There's a penalty.
845
00:33:45,774 --> 00:33:48,318
Keep that blade close
to the edge.
846
00:33:48,318 --> 00:33:52,155
Another one.
Completely off balance.
847
00:33:52,155 --> 00:33:53,907
Sliced a bit off of it,
848
00:33:53,907 --> 00:33:55,951
but not doing real well.
849
00:33:55,951 --> 00:33:58,954
Yeah, he got that one.
850
00:33:58,954 --> 00:34:00,330
Got that one.
851
00:34:03,083 --> 00:34:05,085
Another penalty.
852
00:34:05,085 --> 00:34:06,670
He's got to clear the plate.
853
00:34:09,172 --> 00:34:11,883
Miss.
854
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:14,094
He got it.
855
00:34:14,094 --> 00:34:15,887
Boom, got that one.
856
00:34:15,887 --> 00:34:17,722
Red one's the last one.
Moving on.
857
00:34:17,722 --> 00:34:19,015
- He only got five of those,
Bill.
858
00:34:20,767 --> 00:34:22,352
- Next up, Flying Target.
859
00:34:22,352 --> 00:34:24,020
Competitor must cut
three ropes
860
00:34:24,020 --> 00:34:26,314
that each release
a swinging piece of meat.
861
00:34:26,314 --> 00:34:28,566
Remember, the meat must be cut
so that one half
862
00:34:28,566 --> 00:34:29,609
lands on the grill.
863
00:34:32,862 --> 00:34:35,615
Oh, on and off the grill.
864
00:34:35,615 --> 00:34:37,200
- Just a little bit too late.
865
00:34:45,083 --> 00:34:48,086
- And boom. He's on again.
- Nice!
866
00:34:48,086 --> 00:34:49,379
He is on it, Bill.
867
00:34:51,172 --> 00:34:53,091
- Missed that one.
- Spoke too soon.
868
00:34:53,091 --> 00:34:54,301
- Getting tired there.
869
00:34:54,301 --> 00:34:57,762
Yep, I see him slowing down.
870
00:34:57,762 --> 00:34:59,347
Nope, he does not.
871
00:34:59,347 --> 00:35:01,558
Up next, Free Fall.
872
00:35:01,558 --> 00:35:03,393
- Perfect blade for Free Fall.
873
00:35:04,978 --> 00:35:08,023
- Nice vertical cut underneath.
874
00:35:08,023 --> 00:35:09,983
He got a little piece of it.
875
00:35:09,983 --> 00:35:12,277
Not much movement on
that blade.
876
00:35:12,277 --> 00:35:14,029
Got the third.
877
00:35:14,029 --> 00:35:17,240
Got the fourth.
Yeah, he's doing good.
878
00:35:17,240 --> 00:35:19,117
And another!
879
00:35:19,117 --> 00:35:21,494
Very good strategy.
880
00:35:21,494 --> 00:35:23,288
Okay, looks like he got it.
881
00:35:23,288 --> 00:35:24,998
There's another one.
882
00:35:24,998 --> 00:35:27,959
'Kay, good job there.
883
00:35:27,959 --> 00:35:30,962
Doing well.
884
00:35:30,962 --> 00:35:32,839
There you go.
- Nice.
885
00:35:32,839 --> 00:35:35,342
- No penalties on Free Fall.
886
00:35:35,342 --> 00:35:36,885
Stepping up to Fire and Ice,
887
00:35:36,885 --> 00:35:38,970
but does the blade have
the sharpness
888
00:35:38,970 --> 00:35:42,057
after what he just put
it through?
889
00:35:42,057 --> 00:35:43,767
- Wow! Look at that power.
890
00:35:43,767 --> 00:35:45,477
- Beautiful!
Two strikes right through.
891
00:35:45,477 --> 00:35:46,686
Fire and Ice destroyed.
892
00:35:46,686 --> 00:35:48,647
Up next, Crash Landing.
893
00:35:48,647 --> 00:35:51,816
Remember, competitors must
cut each object in half.
894
00:35:51,816 --> 00:35:55,320
- This is all about timing
and position.
895
00:35:55,320 --> 00:35:57,906
- Right through.
896
00:35:57,906 --> 00:36:00,241
Oh, he didn't cut
all the way through.
897
00:36:00,241 --> 00:36:02,535
He got one penalty right there.
898
00:36:02,535 --> 00:36:04,454
Here comes number three.
899
00:36:05,997 --> 00:36:08,166
- He got it!
900
00:36:08,166 --> 00:36:10,126
both: Nice.
901
00:36:13,213 --> 00:36:15,006
- He needs to destroy
this box.
902
00:36:15,006 --> 00:36:17,133
- Yeah.
He's seen this box before.
903
00:36:17,133 --> 00:36:19,344
Remember, there is a red ball
inside that box;
904
00:36:19,344 --> 00:36:21,221
you've got to dislodge it.
905
00:36:21,221 --> 00:36:23,223
Then you can move on.
906
00:36:23,223 --> 00:36:25,392
- And Tom has a lot of power.
907
00:36:25,392 --> 00:36:26,685
- There goes the ball.
908
00:36:26,685 --> 00:36:28,395
Next up, Fire Storm.
909
00:36:33,316 --> 00:36:35,443
Ascends the stairs.
One final chop
910
00:36:35,443 --> 00:36:36,903
and his time will be stopped.
911
00:36:40,281 --> 00:36:44,327
Tom Mombert with an impressive
run out here on Dead Run.
912
00:36:44,327 --> 00:36:45,412
- Whoo!
913
00:36:45,412 --> 00:36:48,081
- Tom had...
914
00:36:48,081 --> 00:36:50,208
seven penalties.
915
00:36:50,208 --> 00:36:52,377
- That's a good run though.
- It is a good run.
916
00:36:52,377 --> 00:36:54,295
Couple more than I thought
he had.
917
00:36:54,295 --> 00:36:56,423
We gotta see how good
his time is.
918
00:36:56,423 --> 00:36:58,758
Next up, Myles Cup.
919
00:36:58,758 --> 00:37:01,469
Took on Knife Fight inside.
920
00:37:01,469 --> 00:37:03,096
Destroyed it.
921
00:37:03,096 --> 00:37:05,557
Moving outside to Dead Run.
922
00:37:05,557 --> 00:37:08,977
- Myles Cup comes to us
with a German longsword.
923
00:37:08,977 --> 00:37:11,688
36 inches
of cutting edge.
924
00:37:11,688 --> 00:37:13,982
It's a double edged blade.
925
00:37:13,982 --> 00:37:16,276
Tom had a good run.
Very few penalties.
926
00:37:16,276 --> 00:37:17,777
Myles will have to bring
his game.
927
00:37:17,777 --> 00:37:19,696
- Energy is high.
I'm ready to go.
928
00:37:25,702 --> 00:37:28,621
- Myles Cup facing Dead Run.
- MFirst up, Chopper. go.
929
00:37:28,621 --> 00:37:30,999
- Here is moving objects.
It's not a stationary object
930
00:37:30,999 --> 00:37:33,418
where you can employ
that impact.
931
00:37:33,418 --> 00:37:35,754
Here, it's all about speed.
932
00:37:35,754 --> 00:37:37,881
- Almost went halfway through
that mat.
933
00:37:39,382 --> 00:37:40,467
- He's getting through faster
934
00:37:40,467 --> 00:37:43,219
than Tom with this longsword.
935
00:37:43,219 --> 00:37:45,054
Wow. Nice.
- First tatami mat.
936
00:37:45,054 --> 00:37:46,639
- One down.
937
00:37:46,639 --> 00:37:48,558
- He's breathing hard already.
938
00:37:48,558 --> 00:37:51,352
Let's see if he can get through
there quickly.
939
00:37:51,352 --> 00:37:52,979
- He's through!
940
00:37:56,024 --> 00:37:58,026
- Boom. Right through the mat.
- He's through.
941
00:37:58,026 --> 00:38:01,196
- One more piece of wood
and he is moving on.
942
00:38:01,196 --> 00:38:04,657
He is almost through.
Couple more strikes.
943
00:38:04,657 --> 00:38:06,201
Boom. One more.
- Wow!
944
00:38:06,201 --> 00:38:09,537
- He's done.
On to Ball Buster.
945
00:38:09,537 --> 00:38:11,039
- He needs to make up
some time here.
946
00:38:11,039 --> 00:38:13,082
- I tell you what,
Ball Buster's tough.
947
00:38:13,082 --> 00:38:15,376
I mean, that's real tough.
One for one.
948
00:38:15,376 --> 00:38:17,921
Two for two.
949
00:38:17,921 --> 00:38:19,631
Two for three.
950
00:38:19,631 --> 00:38:23,426
That long blade causing him
some problems.
951
00:38:23,426 --> 00:38:24,677
- Nice!
952
00:38:27,096 --> 00:38:28,056
- Missed.
953
00:38:32,602 --> 00:38:35,021
Another penalty.
954
00:38:35,021 --> 00:38:36,856
Running into the ramp.
955
00:38:36,856 --> 00:38:38,775
He missed it again.
956
00:38:38,775 --> 00:38:41,694
Oh, he got it.
Five penalties.
957
00:38:41,694 --> 00:38:43,655
Not real good technique there.
958
00:38:43,655 --> 00:38:45,740
- I mean, the proper technique
there was just to chop.
959
00:38:45,740 --> 00:38:47,283
- Flying Target is up next.
960
00:38:47,283 --> 00:38:48,743
- And this is the perfect
weapon for it.
961
00:38:48,743 --> 00:38:50,328
- This is the perfect weapon
for it.
962
00:38:50,328 --> 00:38:52,205
Let's see if he had
the hand eye.
963
00:38:54,916 --> 00:38:56,543
Beautiful job.
- Beautiful.
964
00:38:56,543 --> 00:38:59,170
- One for one.
- He found that space.
965
00:38:59,170 --> 00:39:02,674
- Slice!
Beautiful.
966
00:39:02,674 --> 00:39:05,051
Okay, can he go three for three
on Flying Target?
967
00:39:05,051 --> 00:39:06,719
Yes, he can!
- Oh, he got it.
968
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:09,722
- Great job.
Up next, Free Fall.
969
00:39:09,722 --> 00:39:11,224
- Wow, he made up so much time
there, Bill.
970
00:39:13,351 --> 00:39:15,395
- Missed that one.
That came out a little quick.
971
00:39:15,395 --> 00:39:18,189
Missed that one too.
Missed two.
972
00:39:18,189 --> 00:39:20,024
Okay, good shot.
973
00:39:20,024 --> 00:39:22,610
- Nice.
974
00:39:22,610 --> 00:39:24,445
- Great shot.
975
00:39:24,445 --> 00:39:26,447
Nope. Penalty.
976
00:39:26,447 --> 00:39:29,075
Boom, got it.
977
00:39:29,075 --> 00:39:31,828
Penalty there.
978
00:39:31,828 --> 00:39:34,330
Good job.
979
00:39:34,330 --> 00:39:35,582
One more penalty.
980
00:39:35,582 --> 00:39:37,458
Five penalties on Free Fall.
981
00:39:37,458 --> 00:39:39,794
Moving on, Fire and Ice.
982
00:39:41,796 --> 00:39:43,423
Now we've seen longblades
go against
983
00:39:43,423 --> 00:39:45,258
this big block of ice before
984
00:39:45,258 --> 00:39:46,968
and a couple have shattered.
985
00:39:46,968 --> 00:39:48,094
Just need one or two more
strikes.
986
00:39:48,094 --> 00:39:49,721
- It's all upper body.
987
00:39:49,721 --> 00:39:51,598
- Boom, he's done.
988
00:39:51,598 --> 00:39:53,808
On to Crash Landing.
989
00:39:53,808 --> 00:39:55,810
He is taking his time.
990
00:39:55,810 --> 00:39:57,562
- This is a very tight race
right now, Bill.
991
00:39:57,562 --> 00:39:59,647
- Yes, it is.
Who's gonna win out in the end?
992
00:39:59,647 --> 00:40:01,774
- It's gonna be a close one.
993
00:40:01,774 --> 00:40:03,693
Nice!
- Kay, first cut right through.
994
00:40:03,693 --> 00:40:05,153
Second cut.
995
00:40:05,153 --> 00:40:07,196
Oh, he didn't cut
all the way through.
996
00:40:09,991 --> 00:40:12,952
- Cut the rope.
That's a penalty.
997
00:40:12,952 --> 00:40:15,079
- Nice.
998
00:40:15,079 --> 00:40:17,498
He needs to go through this
thing with violence, Bill.
999
00:40:17,498 --> 00:40:19,542
- He needs to get
through it quick.
1000
00:40:19,542 --> 00:40:23,004
Compromise that box
and release the red ball.
1001
00:40:23,004 --> 00:40:24,505
- If he can get through this
quick,
1002
00:40:24,505 --> 00:40:26,382
this is--could be dead even
with Tom.
1003
00:40:26,382 --> 00:40:27,634
- I'll tell you what.
I don't see it happening
1004
00:40:27,634 --> 00:40:29,260
because he's sucking for air.
1005
00:40:29,260 --> 00:40:31,554
- He is.
- Oh!
1006
00:40:34,682 --> 00:40:36,726
He's looking for the ball.
There it is.
1007
00:40:36,726 --> 00:40:37,936
Can't see the ball.
- That's gonna cost him.
1008
00:40:37,936 --> 00:40:40,313
- He cannot see the ball.
1009
00:40:40,313 --> 00:40:42,690
- He needs to move on!
1010
00:40:42,690 --> 00:40:45,276
- Can he cut through the ropes,
ascend the stairs?
1011
00:40:45,276 --> 00:40:47,028
- Little bend in the blade.
1012
00:40:47,028 --> 00:40:49,447
- There we go.
1013
00:40:49,447 --> 00:40:51,574
One final cut.
1014
00:40:53,451 --> 00:40:56,120
Boom! He's through.
1015
00:40:58,164 --> 00:41:01,334
- Myles Cup completes Dead Run.
1016
00:41:01,334 --> 00:41:03,252
How's he gonna stack up?
What do you think?
1017
00:41:03,252 --> 00:41:04,754
- I don't know.
That red ball in that box
1018
00:41:04,754 --> 00:41:06,589
could have cost him
this competition.
1019
00:41:06,589 --> 00:41:09,968
- Myles had...
1020
00:41:09,968 --> 00:41:12,053
12 penalties.
1021
00:41:12,053 --> 00:41:15,098
- Wow, hopefully he was
fast enough
1022
00:41:15,098 --> 00:41:16,849
to get over those penalties.
1023
00:41:16,849 --> 00:41:19,310
- Longsword versus short blade.
1024
00:41:19,310 --> 00:41:21,312
Let's see the times.
1025
00:41:21,312 --> 00:41:25,024
Myles' time with penalties
was...
1026
00:41:25,024 --> 00:41:27,819
8 minutes and 9 seconds.
1027
00:41:27,819 --> 00:41:29,988
- Wow, those penalties hurt
him, Bill.
1028
00:41:29,988 --> 00:41:31,948
- Boy, that is
an understatement,
1029
00:41:31,948 --> 00:41:34,742
but Tom was not moving
that fast.
1030
00:41:34,742 --> 00:41:38,997
Tom's time with penalties
was...
1031
00:41:38,997 --> 00:41:41,791
5 minutes and 25 seconds.
1032
00:41:41,791 --> 00:41:44,210
Congratulations, Tom.
You've won $2,000
1033
00:41:44,210 --> 00:41:45,503
and the chance to compete
1034
00:41:45,503 --> 00:41:46,838
in our grand champion
showdown
1035
00:41:46,838 --> 00:41:48,673
at the end of the season.
1036
00:41:48,673 --> 00:41:50,383
- I've done my mission here
and I'm really happy.
1037
00:41:50,383 --> 00:41:52,176
- Okay, Mr. Bodybuilder.
1038
00:41:52,176 --> 00:41:54,262
Looks like the strength
training worked out for you.
1039
00:41:54,262 --> 00:41:55,555
- Yeah, I guess it did.
- Great job.
1040
00:41:55,555 --> 00:41:57,056
Congratulations.
- Thank you.
1041
00:41:57,056 --> 00:41:58,391
Start your ass training
for the--
1042
00:41:58,391 --> 00:41:59,976
- I'll be right back.
- Cardio.
1043
00:41:59,976 --> 00:42:01,477
- You got it, brother.
- Thanks, guys.
1044
00:42:01,477 --> 00:42:02,562
I'm extremely pleased
with the way
1045
00:42:02,562 --> 00:42:04,188
my blade performed today.
1046
00:42:04,188 --> 00:42:05,982
I'm leaving a winner.
I'm coming back later on.
1047
00:42:05,982 --> 00:42:07,025
You guys better be ready.
