The finished product was a beautiful piece. Elegant and deadly, I'm no fighter, nor am I an expert on such weapons, but I can appreciate a thing of lethal beauty when it is made.
You have to give credit to the other dude Eric. Although even before they started doing the tests he was already utterly defeated, he never bummed out and kept going through the test with an optimistic attitude. You gotta respect that.
Gotta give Eric credit: he made a unique blade that was, overall, effective. He kept getting worried that it was going to break, but it held up and the judges admitted that it was a nice creation. He just didn't sharpen it properly. Good call on the judges' part, but I think Eric deserves the shoutout.

Jared's blade is night and day to his competitor. This is proof that if you put time and effort into something, it'll be a great weapon. The other weapon did it's job for the most part but it looked incomplete if you ask me in comparison to Jared's.
That was a helluva compliment from Jason Knight. I would be more honored by his compliment than the ten grand. And that is one very well made and perfectly executed blades.

Can we all appreciate just how great this show is. one if the few entertaining tv shows left. Anyone else got any recommendations for fun tv shows to watch like this?
I'we been watching these videos a lot lately as I've been home sick and it seems the better looking weapon almost always also performs better, as in this case. Of course the looks and finish tell a lot about the skill and craftsmanship of the maker so a person capable of making a good looking blade probably is also capable of making a well performing one.
One man made the most lethal piece of art the world has ever seen while the other made a half dull bent letter T. The winner: "I'm kind of in chock right now" Either give that man a Oscar or he lacks a lot of confidence.
Everyone is talking about the human munga these guys made. Am I the only one who is more impressed that you this weapon was made in a country that at the time didn't even have adequate smithing gear.
While the sharp pommel on the second guy’s knife certainly makes it more tricky to wield as a hand to hand combat weapon, it almost doubles the chances of dealing damage when thrown. Overall I would say it’s not a design flaw, but is merely specialized towards a different purpose.
You know when you forget you had a project and hurry it in the night before and end up just doing the bare minimum? that's how Eric's sword looks like. At 6:21 when you see them side by side is almost awkward.
I'm not a smith of anything but I don't understand why these bladesmiths find this weapon complicated to build. These African warriors were able to make this weapon without equipment.

Hi
@@d9ni6l hi
Hello
Greetings
how are you fellas?
Can we just appreciate how beautiful Jared's Hunga Munga is? Not to mention the way he drew the sketch of the blade...
Agreed
The finished product was a beautiful piece. Elegant and deadly, I'm no fighter, nor am I an expert on such weapons, but I can appreciate a thing of lethal beauty when it is made.
Its an absolute MasterPiece
His hunga munga was super stunning
I appreciate how Jared dressed up for the occasion.
Jared's weapon is Exquisite....He's in a league of his own. Well Done!
Sasta Khan variety
We’re you Expecting a clap 👏
We want you to recreate this weapon from history
“German Tank”
Well see you in 5 days. Goodluck
Your weapon of mass destruction did not make the cut please leave the hangar
Well every facet of your tank will do damage. When aimed correctly your Panzer completely evaporated our test dummies. This sir, will kill!
Now one thingI don’t like is that your weapon is heavy this beast almost weighs 68 tons
You will make this unique weapon of history in your home forges
We want you to create
A lightsaber from Star Wars
See you in 5 days, good luck.
I had a hunch Jared was going to win with how diligently he planned out the piece. He worked out each bend and had a really nice sketch as well.
Jared's blade was one of the best I've seen on this show..
Not one of the best
It's the best
It's overated
it really was gorgeous. i don’t think I’ve even seen someone else do a cord wrap in the handle either, really shows his knowledge
Eric's weapon looks like a 8-bit version of Jared's
couldnt have been said better
Lol
Lol yes
Jared's weapon is like the $500 cold steel replica, while Eric's looks like the $50 tactical machette version from cold steel.
I figured it didn't load in after a cut scene.
You have to give credit to the other dude Eric. Although even before they started doing the tests he was already utterly defeated, he never bummed out and kept going through the test with an optimistic attitude. You gotta respect that.
I’m no blacksmith but it’s definitely not a straightforward weapon to make with all the different blade shapes protruding out like a tree
It's awesome to see how humble these guys are when being judged. Definitely some serious sportsmanship in this show.
*Hunga munga exists
Me: (confused unga bunga)
twoset violin?
I see you're a Crash Bandicoot fan
*UNGA BUNGA!!!!!*
😂
I really was trying hard to make an unga bunga joke but I just couldn't
Gotta give Eric credit: he made a unique blade that was, overall, effective. He kept getting worried that it was going to break, but it held up and the judges admitted that it was a nice creation. He just didn't sharpen it properly. Good call on the judges' part, but I think Eric deserves the shoutout.
Bro imagine how sick the African Smith's who created this weapon originally must have been to forge out this shape without mechanical assistance
It probably seems difficult to us, but many of these weapons are constructed from already existing farming tools.
Lol they used molds and just poured the metal in
@@Gygsdthey did not infact even with bronze,molding was more of a Eurasia technique as far as weapons and it was almost completely unheard of to form iron or steel weapons through molding in Africa,just jewelry
@@patronofdebaucheryandviolenceExactly
Look up Benin bronzes and Ife art for examples African metalworking.
You know your weapon is good when the judges all say "Nice" in unison watching it be used
8:52 I thought he was about to say 'really happy that the judge nicked himself"
lmao
Clearly the blade will cut
Throwing that beauty is like watching the devil roll dice, whatever it lands on its gonna hurt.
It won’t hurt they’ll be dead too quickly. 😏
Max Geiger FROM Deadliest Warriors Said that when they were testing out an African weapon called the Kpinga
Jared's blade is night and day to his competitor. This is proof that if you put time and effort into something, it'll be a great weapon. The other weapon did it's job for the most part but it looked incomplete if you ask me in comparison to Jared's.
It looked horribly rushed, the potential was there, but the other guy didn't tap into it
4:02 did he burned his chest hairs
Probably tried and failed to shave them
This weapons sounds and looks like a child made it, just blades everywhere
Yep, African children made it and play with it, sometime they lose an eye when having fun!
Imagine dying from weapon named hunga munga
@@kuching.sniper2792 lmao
Kylo Ren: MORE!
It reminds me of the kylo ren meme where the saber just keeps splitting into a christmas tree.
That was a helluva compliment from Jason Knight. I would be more honored by his compliment than the ten grand. And that is one very well made and perfectly executed blades.
Jared's blade was functional art. 😍
Literally a thing of beauty right there. It looked so good and performed very well
And some people believe Africans never made art or had metallurgy or culture.
They’re talking about Jared’s blade, but I agree with you as well.
@@hainleysimpson1507 Whoever truly believes that has no clue what Africa is. It is quite literally the heart of the world! ❤
@@hainleysimpson1507 Africans made many great blades but they didn't make much armor

jared’s hunga munga looks like it would be the display model. perfect job
Jared poured his heart and soul into that weapon
For a minuet i thought this was another name for the "Kpinga" ! Great weapons, love them !!
Great show too !!
Ooga booga was invincible weilding this back in the day
Jared ....Man! You have actually surpassed original Hunga Munga blade🔥🔥🔥.
The marbele only a selected few were ever skilled with this weapon, the more curves and blades it had the more important or skilled the person was that use this beauty
this would be such a sick weapon in assassins creed man
Eric: "it will stick"
Me: idk what to say about that....
Eet weel steeck
Can we all appreciate just how great this show is. one if the few entertaining tv shows left. Anyone else got any recommendations for fun tv shows to watch like this?
Imagine getting killed by a weapon called the *hunga munga*
Person: how’d I die?
God: *hunga munga*
Person: what?
The whatthefuckunga?!🤣🤣🤣
*hunga munga hunga hunga hunga munga hunga hunga* "I can't stop this feelin', deep inside of me..."
It sounds normal in their language, genius
Imagine training for years in battle just to be killed by a weapon called the "Hunga Munga"
"Surrender your Hunga Munga".
- Ancient African pick-up line
Once I saw Jareds sketch I just knew he was gonna win. That is one of the nicest weapons I've seen on this show.
Jared's weapon is a piece of art, impressive how he did that in only 5 days
Jared made a true work of art in only 5 days. One of the best made weapons ever on this show.
He made a way more beautiful weapon than the one that judges have, wow 👌😍
Eric said "Can only go up from here" after he lost, but like, he can totally go down if hes not lucky lmao
Imagine how skilled the blacksmiths were that made this sword. If they both teamed up to make a sword…holy. It’ll be a thing of beauty
I am curious if they will *KEEL*
Edit: I am pretty stunned by these great weapons
I’m 2nd tho😅
@@Alijahalexander8274 No problem!
Dip the Tip of the Sicle in faeces or other Toxins then yeah, i don't believe Tribes have ready access to Poison.
@@The1RedRooster sure they do haven't you ever heard of poison darts or Spears they get the poison off of The Backs of toads or Lizards
Standard HEAT that's a good question evidently this episode the weapons only kill they don't keel this time
Jared dedication very impressive.
Well done, Jerad!
was anyone else like, dudes gonna cut himself with the second weapons grip spike on the throwing portion?
Cellion : That could be an unspoken factor in why Eric lost. The weapon shouldn't be such a danger to the weirder.
That’s a rad looking weapon! Cool name, too. I remember them saying that name in passing on Buffy. Way cool.
Eric did great, good job Eric
The Design was solid
hey, this isn't Rambo's or John Wick's knife ..... it's Buffy's blade ....🤣🤣🤣
1:53 I'm pretty sure he's beyond fckn stoned 😭
When a judge says it's so cool that he wants it...you know you done did good. 👍
The weapon's design is sooo unrealistically similar to the map of Africa!!😯
Eric's blade: cannot render in properly
Jared's blade: max graphics
Jared's blade is work of art. Dude draw the blade on piece of steel he forged and even found time to decorate it.
I'm a sucker for good sportsmanship, well done sir
4.08 judges mimcry It will Stick 😂😂
8:49 judge cuts his arm
Jared: rEaLlY hApPy WiTh My DeSiGn
I love how the judges got excited muttering amongst themselves while the weapons were being tested.
I'we been watching these videos a lot lately as I've been home sick and it seems the better looking weapon almost always also performs better, as in this case. Of course the looks and finish tell a lot about the skill and craftsmanship of the maker so a person capable of making a good looking blade probably is also capable of making a well performing one.
Judge : "Captain Caveman what do you think of Jared's Unga Munga?"
Captain Caveman : "UNGA BUNGA!"
10k for that piece of art sounds like Jared got robbed tbh.
Exquisite work.
I like when they have them make more unusual weapons like this instead of just swords
Great job to both! Well done!
One man made the most lethal piece of art the world has ever seen while the other made a half dull bent letter T. The winner: "I'm kind of in chock right now"
Either give that man a Oscar or he lacks a lot of confidence.
Feels like they were just being kind to Eric. You can obviously tell Eric weapon was inferior in every way.
Jared's hunga munga is the picture I wanted to draw and Eric's hunga munga is what I ended up with
This thing is in Legend of Zelda botw as one of the Lizard’s boomerangs
Everyone is talking about the human munga these guys made. Am I the only one who is more impressed that you this weapon was made in a country that at the time didn't even have adequate smithing gear.
2:34 this dudes neighbors are saints, deaf or dead with that thing thumping ...hahahahahahahahaha
Jared's edge was his respect for the weapon.
While the sharp pommel on the second guy’s knife certainly makes it more tricky to wield as a hand to hand combat weapon, it almost doubles the chances of dealing damage when thrown. Overall I would say it’s not a design flaw, but is merely specialized towards a different purpose.
Jered did amazing with that design
IT WILL STICK
Safeties :- puts glasses on
Well, who cares about the rest of the body .
Eyes matters 😂
Jared's hunga munga excels ..
Eric was so much more confident than Jared, yet Jared's ended up so much better.
I love when a judges own incompetence is what costs a competitor points lmao
Jared's weapon- level 50: mafia boss
Eric's weapon- level 15: secretary
I’m hyped I can watch some full episodes on Netflix now!!!!!
Jared made a DnD artifact weapon, it's beautiful
IT WIL STEEK
Jared's blade looks beautiful
Wasnt the blade outlawed in africa? And its abilty to hit and and bounce over shields, hits the man behind is pretty scary.
@Admire Kashiri ill have to double check but i think a bunch of african kings agreed not to use it because of how deadly it is.
That’s a wicked design!!!
Both have done a amazing job
Bladesmith to african tribes man :- So you want machete, throwing knife, knife or battle axe?
African tribes man :- Yes
The name itself sounds deadly
Mfw I saw that the Lizal Tri Boomerang from The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is based off the Hunga Munga.
Not only is it a winner but now it has also tasted real blood.
for me there was a winner just at the beginning, he did rly nice job
Jared - Runescape 3 version
Eric - Old School Runescape version
I love the Hunga Munga!
Jared is in a whole different league dude.

They did have equipment. This is much more difficult to make than a regular dagger or axe
The fact that this is the official name is great
