"Hey Ninja, get a look at this!" "My name is Jeremy."
As i flash my jellybean
My name....is also....Jeremy. 😂😂😂😂
Another Jeremy here
@@jeremyspierling5268 hello fellow Jeremy. Let us put together an assembly of Jeremy's to rival all others.
@@JThaDon910 Thus my name is Isaac... may I still join the Jeremy brotherhood?
"Ah yeah but spartans were used to pain" My brother in christ, glass shards to the eye won't just hurt, they'll blind you too. It isn't just a big ouchie, it's an Omega Ouchie with a status debuff.
So that’s a plus 6 damage into the high tech computer?
@@amiwrongaboutsports very likely, give or take 1 point, factoring in weather conditions affecting the throwing of the egg.
@@EpicWinNoob 😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
I'd still put money on a spartan soldier to win against a ninja. That being said, yeah, glass in eyes would definitely be a pain unlike no other.
The unhinged energy of the ninja expert saying "the spartan may win face to face, but the ninja would just run away and come back at night when the spartan is sleeping" has stuck with me for like 15 years
Same here.
I will always strike at night if I need to strike what's unhinged about that
If it's day time face to face I'd say hey look what's that then I'd kick them in the balls while I punch em with my left hand works half the time 😉
same. this is the episode that pissed me off more than any other lol. the spartan would never even SEE the ninja if the ninja wanted to kill him. js.
Maximum level cope.
"Hey what would happen if we pitted pure testosterone wrapped in bronze against an expert in subterfuge, infiltration, and assassination but didn't let them do any of that"
The stereotypes were strong in this episode
Always what i though when watching this episode! Like when they slam the weapon against the bronze armor and I’m just saying in my head “um i think a ninja would just go for the exposed neck rather than slam it into they’re bronze chest armor”
Seriously. This episode seemed weighted to the spartan side
Bronze armor vs steel sword, jesus christ, what were they thinking?
The part where he somehow recovered from both his eyes being shredded by glass powder was also a really cheap way to hand-wave something that should've set him up for the kill
The ninja tried to be stealthy and got caught. And the last thing a ninja wants is to be seen, because up against a real Soldier such as a samurai or Spartan they can't hope to win once they have their eyes on them.
What I love is how the ER doctor HAS to have his lab coat on to show he's a real Dr
Unnecessary as hell.. We can just look him up to know he's the real deal..
And the software guy HAS to have the professional trenchcoat on. You know...so we know he's the techie guy.
And Doctor Beverly Crusher “had” to have her lab coat on so that we would know she was the doctor.
always on court drama shows if a doctor is testifying, they always are wearing a stethoscope
😂😂
Fun fact, the narrator for deadliest warrior is David Wenham, who is also the narrator and eye patch guy in the movie 300
Also Faramier
Faramir from Lotr series.
I always knew he sounded familiar.
Friar Carl
@@omgnumbers9944 "well actually I'm just a friar.... damnit"
The look of pure hate in the ninjas eyes when that guy put his hands on his shoulders was worth the whole episode lol
the sheer disrespect, you know he contemplated swinging on him lol
seriously though the spartan "experts" were massive dicks in this episode, idk how anyone put up with them, the "ninjas" were kinda immature and goofy but the spartan douchbags were just straight up high school bullies
and is no-one gonna mention how the one dude claims to have learned to use a sword in his special forces training? because....yeah, that's totally something they teach in the modern military how to swing a fucking xiphos sword.... i call bullshit lol
I wouldn't condescend to a guy with a sword in his hands.... Personally.
He looked ready to kill a spartan
I KNOW RIGHT LMFAO
I cannot stop laughing
@user-mm5mm3ol7f Definitely bull shit. Combat Knife maybe, but a sword? Lol. Also most spec op guys I met were very mature. These guys act like dumb jocks
The "computer simulation" always makes me laugh. They show you this intense scene of people fighting, but you know the simulation is just a bunch of text on a screen.
The simulation is just what they decided to film 😭😭
Yes, the program that took 5 years to develop looks like a spreadsheet.
@Alf Gwahigain It actually ran a bunch of scenarios that were basically a match in a Combat Mission title, then spit the data out. Which I always thought was cool. I recall the actual data for what was essentially a modified version of the games engine was floating around, but since it wasn't compatible with much of anything, it all just ended up being lost to time.
The computer simulation was a fuckin' RTS
The computer simulation is just some dude entering numbers onto an excel sheet. I bet it doesn’t even calculate one single thing
I remember this being the episode that made me stop watching this show. I don’t care how absolutely monstrous you are physically. Glass in your eye’s would just be the end.
Right like oh let me shake my head around for three seconds and suddenly I can see again. Lol
The reenactment isn’t a representation of the computer battle 🤣 shield vs egg…think about it
Of only there was some way of preventing stuff getting in your eyes.
I'm sitting here blinking in confusion trying to think of a method to prevent glass in eyes.
Seriously I have been squinting so hard staring at these books trying to find a historical method to not get pocketsand in eyes.
@@richardharding7767 bro thinks squinting and blinking would protect micro pieces of glass from getting into his eyes💀 ur like beyond stupid
Wasnt this like the 3rd episode or something 😅
Also, I haven’t stopped laughing about the “Barry honed his sword skills during his 8 years as a green beret...” line! I mean really? As a veteran myself, I am extremely confused. I must have missed “sword training” when I was at Ft. Benning?.??
Yeah you probably just missed it, everyone else went
lol day 1 stuff on sand hill buddy where were you? what a pogue
They did, is just that they never invited you because you're no Spartan enough
Damnit… I got fucked over then huh? Seeing as swords are the most advanced weapon platform available today, I feel terribly antiquated.
While you were wasting time learning warrior tasks and battle drills, I studied the blade
Tbh that broken glass egg thing is a pretty terrifying weapon
Yeah but like most of the ninjas tools it was designed to buy time to run away as historically ninjas avoided direct combat as they nearly always lost.
I had fiberglass shards go in my eyes. It was one of the most painful traumatizing experiences.
@@therealshino4607 I know the feeling I had a 3mm sliver of metal from walking by a pipe threader. I got lucky it was steel, and it got taken out with a magnet, still hurt like hell.
@@p_campbell ouch. The black egg would make me flee strstegically
@@rjohnson2813 they didn’t ‘avoid’ combat it simply wasn’t their job, they were spies, saboteurs, and assasins, they literally would rarely if ever be near a battlefield
Crazy Fact: Part of the training required to become a Spartan was they had to sneak out and kill a slave without getting caught.
It would've been more fascinating if we saw the simulation done from a stealth perspective. A Spartan and a Ninja trying to outwit each other in the shadows.
Tbh yeah , that could be an awsome comic idea : a spartan with his breast plate and spear trying to suss out a ninja coming for him ...
It would be pretty awsome ...
Honestly this show and death battle made me realize a thing : ofthen times the more intresting part of a fight is the two caracters in it ,
So really it would be intresting to have a comic remake that tries to have a more caracter focused go at the match ups ,
Like what would each of them be thinking during that confrontation ?
Why would they be in that situation ?
Like i am honestly getting some ideas about this :
The ira and talibans are just placed there in a suicide squad gladiatorial match up type of thing by the joined governament of the UK and the US for entratainment purposes , like how the romans had gladiatorial matches with guys from defeated armies ...
The pirate fled from his sunken ship , managing to save his treasure , only to pass out on a french beach ,
There a small local knight that takes defending his land holding from britons invadors , tries to take him out as he tries to use his limited knowledge on how to make gunpowder and survival to outrun his problem , while the knight is faced with the problem that his serfs don't trust him at all ...
A samurai is facing against the mercenaries the koreans have hired in the high seas , the vikings are tired from rowing all the way from iceland but they know how to fight on a shaking boat ...
The pakistan civil war actually broke out , the nuclear exchange between the US and the USSR has wiped a sizable chunk of humanity , but armies aren't stopping , no less special forces : a group of green berres and speznaz are tasked to secure the same bunker in yugoslavia , how much are these soldiers different ? How much are they willing to do to get what they want ?
Do they even know what they are fighting for at this point ?
And so on
While working on this show, the egos of everyone was off the charts. I mostly molded the real weapons, then made nerf type safe weapons that they could fight with. Have any questions about the first 5 episodes, I'd be happy to answer from my perspective. Great video man! I'll check out your channel.
Can Spartans really shrug off glass in their eyes?
WOW, I really hope this channels sees this, it would be great if you guys could do an interview or something!
Was the guy with the spear in danger of killing Barry in that one shot?
@@dangerousdays2052 I wonder that, too. In my experience, the body can be trained to adapt to many harsh conditions, when conditioned to do so. With that said, I was just part of the blood, and weapons crew. Snake Blocker, would be better qualified to answer questions in the relm of combat.
@@CrizzyEyes I was too busy doing the work of 4 men behind the stage doors. My Boss and his assistant got to relax on set and take credit for doing not much of anything though. One Guy that was on and off set that did most of the Damn work in our department was, Stephen Myers. He's the one that actually shot the arrows into the eyes of the dummy, off stage, for the cast members that couldn't do it. Hollywood is not kind or truthful. Most, of the good people leave.
I truly love the Spartan side talking about how tough the Spartans are, that they'd just kind of shake off getting powdered glass in their eyes and then they put that in the simulation. These people are so deep in their fantasies that they believe their team are a bunch of super heroes. I got a tiny cut on my eye when I was a kid, and I could barely open that eye and had to wear an eye patch. But yeah, glass and pepper? Just walk it off.
3 second rule apparently lol
I got my nose broke and I couldn’t see. Didn’t even touch my eyes.
A stray balloon string cut my mother's eye and she needed surgery to see out it again...
Just the power glass would cause blindness and crazy amounts of pain. It might not kill you, but you're not a threat anymore
@@absolutez3r019 would 100% kill you if you are a warrior on a battlefield. Imagine walking into one of your dead ally's spear, or getting home and being killed because you are a burden to the Sparta! Not to mention infection so close to the brain, imagine if someone put poison or venom powder in that. You dead. It might not be immediate, but you going to die.
My favorite episode of this was “Pirate vs Knight.” None of the pirate’s weapons were effective against the Knight’s armor, but the pirate still won because, “the pirate has gun and gunpowder means knight is outdated.”
My friend and I watched that episode together. My friend said the pirate would win if he shot the knight through the opening in the helmet which he called the 'facehole'.. we found that phrase so funny. 'Right in the ole face hole"
@@sunofpeter2 he'd have to be fucking point blank. Flintlocks weren't renowned for their accuracy.
@@Thor-Orion yeah I think our scenario was he would have to engage in melee combat then draw his pistol at the right moment and pow! Right in the face hole! The pirate would probably have to Jack Sparrow lucky with serious Zorro like skill. But if he was fighting my man "The Lion Heart" the knight wins every time
im pretty sure one of the pirates guns did in fact penetrate the knights armor.
@@captaincaterpie The blunderbuss did, but it misfired twice if I recall. So the flintlock lacked accuracy and couldn't penetrate, and the blunderbuss could penetrate the armor, but only when it _actually_ fired, and it still had accuracy issues. Yeah, I loved Deadliest Warrior as a kid, but that battle definitely made me question the team's logic.
Those eggs filled with ground glass are not just going to cause the immobile Spartan pain, they are going to blind him.
and the spear would kill either, death is much more effective than blinding and spears are much easier to hit, honestly if this happened both would bring spears, and the spartan would likely win cause of armor
@@jestawellwhat I don’t get is how can we justify who would win because ninja weren’t fight in the front line that kind of defeats the whole purpose of a ninja and what year because ninja had explosive and smoke depending on the year since ninja were also during the gunpowder era where as spartan era ended way back than so putting a first gen ninja vs prime Sparta …
I remember that episode. It’s stupid how we’re supposed to believe a spartan is so tough that he could shrug off glass in his eyes😐.
yeah even as a greek i call bullshit on that i mean the best he can is use his opponents footsteps to at least locate him and protect himself but i also call bullshit on the ninja managing to blow the glass bomb on the spartans face because the spartan wouldn't let the ninja get the chance he would had already slash at the ninja either landing a hit or at least keep him at a distance also even if he somehow get the glass bomb thrown at his face without his shield stopping it he can still move his head or use the side of the helmet to deflect the shards not to mention the spartan wouldn't just mindlessly chase the ninja he would keep a optimal striking distance where he can both attack and defend/counter any attempt to get his defense bypassed
@@petrospago3515 -_-
@petrospago3515 ninjas were trained to move silently and stealthily its highly unlikely for anyone to hear a ninja approaching cuz they worn specialized clothing and outfit and also their shoes are like as quiet as can be
Spartan vs ninja would be so unbalanced. The master of confrontational combat vs the master of hit and run.
Another imbalance would be that ninjas were still a thing well into the 1600's while Sparta's decline started long before they were conquered by Rome around 200BC.
Ninjas were had explosives and were occasionally using guns. A ninja would do whatever for the upper hand and that sure af includes bringing a gun & explosives to a sword fight.
Like you pointed out, they had completely different styles. Spartans were strong head-on warriors, while ninjas used stealth for spywork and assassinations for their clan or some feudal lord.
Well master of hit and run until they pissed off the wrong Samurai Clan, got locked in their own hideout and set on fire from outside. Besides not like the Ninjas did not occasionally have stand up fights and it's not like the Spartans did not practice A-Semtric Warfare at one point or another.
What actually happened to the Ninjas vs. Spartan complacency and decline aside, I do agree the Ninja definitely has an advantage being that they from centuries in the future and would probably win due to such.
@@nillabeany they used a lot of guns and explosives
Ninjas are also trained to be deadly with hand to hand. They are just like trained assassins I would say possess any close range skill a spartan would have.
Spartans mostly trained in formation fighting which makes them better in battles than one on one a ninja is trained efficiently in 1v1 and they don’t mention ninja schools lol I guess they forgot they are taken as kids and trained too

spartans being a bully is actually historically accurate. it has to have been on purpose as a little nod.
The "his entire training was to make him hard" was partially true. The amount of sexual dominance done in the Spartan and tbh all Greek militaries was crazy.

I like how the javelin was intended to be the long range weapon, yet he threw it at the dummy from about 5 feet away
Because Barry sucks
Spears are very hard to throw. Typically, Spartans would carry one to throw, and their slave would carry extras. The Spartans would throw thm from a few meters away as they charged, and would get another when they were cycled out to rest.
@@coolbeans3390 so in a weird way, Spartans were golfers back in the day. And their slaves were their caddies?
@@bizlatttingz that's hilarious Ive never thought about it that way, but that's literally exactly what's happening.
Most Greek army’s at the time consisted of Hoplites and fought in phalanxes. Skirmishers we’re thought to first have been used my the city states of Thrace where their Javelins were used to break up the cohesion of an enemy phalanx allowing their own to gain the advantage and route them.
Javelins aren’t “hard” to throw at all, they are however hard to throw effectively at long range, similar to how the English longbow man had to train to be effective, the Thracians did too.
I love how in the simulation the Spartan just basically walked off having a Huge amount of glass thrown in his eyes, So you're telling me that glass is just going to go in your eyes cut Your eyes to Kingdom Come possibly causing permanent blindness and you just walk that s*** off
You dont understand... spartans were used to pain.

@@crazy4orlando2 You really think that lol
I know you said this is the last video... but you should REALLY cover the mafia vs yakuza episode because the experts in that episode bicker so much that one of the experts LITERALLY THREATENS one of the other experts with one of the weapons. Like. It was pure childlike bickering. Please cover that one. Otherwise great episode like always Chris lol
Yes. I still remember that after like 14 years.
Yes! When the guy like, pushes the yakuza guy out of the way and goes to town on the dummy he was cutting up, it's so fucking funny
thisd would be content, gorilla approved
And the zombie episode where the guy got so defensive 😵💫😵💫😵💫
literally one of the most biased comparisons I've ever seen. In the end they somehow had the mafia baseball bat beat a Yakuza katana. Even though it lost the head to head weapon test it still somehow won in the end. A bat beat a sword, chew on that for a minute lol.
The Spartan expert being a bully is in character for the historically awful Spartans.
The Spartans were definitely massive pricks to basically everyone else
I just remember the Pirate vs. Knight episode that was already an incredibly stupid matchup. It basically boiled down to "Pirates have guns so they win".
Also the actual reason knight got phased out…
@@ASoberBearyep guns are also easy to train in compared to crossbows
I hated this episode the most back in the day, mostly because I remember watching their behind the scenes/discussion episode covering this and they admitted to not factoring in stealth because of unfair advantages. Like, that's the ninja's whole thing you can't just not factor it in!
Honestly, they're two completely opposite combat styles. One is designed for side-by-side large scale battles while the other guy is a glorified spy. It's like Rambo vs James Bond.
@@GuerrillaGorilla023 Rambo vs James Bond is still more on par than this. The biggest travesty was Jesse James v. Al Capone.
Sure they both had guns, but the gap in technology is astonishing.
the viking losr to a samurai by technicality
If they were accurate then this wouldn't of been an episode. Shinobi generally weren't warriors or assassins. They were scouts and spies. They blended in and gave intel or were used for sabotage.
the spartans were trained in stealth to
The big problem with this episode is the fact that Spartan would fight in broad daylight just like a samurai, they face their opponent at midday in the middle of a battlefield. The ninja come at you in the middle of the night while their opponent is sleeping. They both have two different methods of attack. Which is ironic because the green beret would fight more like a ninja than a spartan. He would use night vision and a suppressor to come at his enemy/target in the middle of the night. Eliminating an enemy before they realized what was happening.
Also one of the most famous ninja was known for essentially sniping people from the tops of trees with a huge musket and had iron "karuta" or "kusari" armor
But they have to keep the fight fair for both sides and that’s why although they were in broad daylight they added some things in the environment like the tall grass that would favor the ninja
@@TheMan-je5xq ninjas have gunpowder….. end of story
Like there’s no more talk. They have……gunpowder
Reminder that majority of ninjas were mere scouts with no special skills or training, literally peasants.
Ones that did carry out these missions were samurais themselves or their retinue.
Besides ninjatos did not exist, its a novel came with romantisizing ninjas. Show is hilariously silly with many unchecked media myths
Yeah, because ninja aren't skirmish warriors like spartans. They're spies and assassins. A more fair test would be samurai vs spartans.
I remember watching this as a kid and basically being like. It’s not really a fair comparison. You have what is essentially an infantryman and a spy going head to head. If a Ninja was actually doing his job properly, ideally he would kill the spartan before he even knew he was there.
Yeah like posioning his food and the spartan dies on the shitter before the fight
The show isn't "Deadliest Assassin" it's "Deadliest Warrior." The entire point of the show is for two warriors to fight head to head.
If you want to have a separate discussion that's more than all right. But it was never the point of this show.
One thing that always bothered me about this episode is that if the ninja nails you with that egg and you have shattered glass in your eyes, it's over. It's not a killshot itself, but would lead to a kill almost every time. They really understated its potential.
Yeah detah or surrender
But the numbers on their high tech program said no.
The one I remember being the most antagonistic was the yakuza guy who straight up threatened the other guys.
In his defense, that episode was bs. No way yakuza loses to mob
Came looking for this comment.
The Yakuza guy almost coming to blows with the Italian dude over some hypothetical death battle was one of the most uncomfortable scenes in the show for me
@@imperiex4 and funny thing is, what if they did fight and Yakuza guy got laid out 😂😂😂

@@TheChocolateChamp or you use the electoral college
Not true, you can admit and recognize when somebody is superior to you. But that accountability can be an advantage if I don’t know what my weaknesses are I won’t know to lean towards my strengths. As he said in the video “the spartan may win right now but the ninja will just run away and come back at night when he’s sleep”. Ninja recognizes this guy is bigger stronger and has on armor I can’t win head to head combat but I can use strategy to avoid as much conflict as possible
"The deceivingly simple pocket sand" kills me every time I watch this.. I've watched it 5 times now
I think the funniest thing about this episode is that, iirc, the ninja did not exist as was shown in this episode, hell, the ninjato sword's earliest confirmed appearance was 1956! The Spartan was effectively fighting a fictional character
And that stupid outfit that'd most likely only have been worn as part of a night-infiltration, so the fact it's not a 'night invasion fight' instead was baffling to me. Ninja using that natural camoflage-style dressup against the Spartan and thus also making that egg a lot more useful since it'd be even harder to see it.
Put this fight in the dark and see what the spartan can do when the ninja is attacking out of no where during the dark.
Ninja has thousands of options to easily kill their opponents.
Explosives, poison, stabbings, etc.
The ninja didn't need to work extra hard on a confrontation
This episode is seared into my mind. I will never forget how my family would make predictions at the beginning of the episode, and I was filled with such pride calling the spartan victory.
Relatable
Mine would do the same. It was a weekly ritual on like, Thursday night or something after we DVR'ed the episode
Idk why anyone would pick ninja over spartan, this episode pissed me off as a kid because it was such a strange unbalanced matchup lol
@@HoxMouse It was definitely a pairing that didn’t fit, like “Today’s matchup features 5 expertly trained and heavily armed Navy Seals, going up against 3 literal toddlers! Let’s see how it pans out!”
@@HoxMouse to put it simply, ninjas were not warriors, they were assassins and spies. Masters of espionage, not combat.
Will never get enough of your deadpan humor in the face of nostalgic gimmicky silliness, keep it up
I've described his humor style as "low key." So "deadpan" works well, too. And no gimmicky silliness! (Check out the Babe Station)
Serving cunt perhaps 😂😂😂 I lost it
With the over saturation of commentary channels, it's nice to get deadpan instead of exaggerated animated shouting. Plus, he seems like a genuinely cool dude, and much like when I see my friends' projects, whether music, videography, photography, whatever, thrive; to think it wasn't long ago he had that yellow background profile pic w/o the check.
I remember watching this as a kid and even thinking back then that the pairing and the fight itself was so strangely one sided.
A ninja wouldn't fight head on like they did in the "simulation" , like they didn't even factor in that they were stealth fighters, a ninja certainly wouldn't pick a fight with a heavily armored opponent in midday like that.
Like I swear Barry threatened to have his Green Beret buddies raid their houses if the Spartan didn't win so they completely removed the Ninja's most vital weapons.
It always confuses me when this kind of show puts a class of fighter known for face-to-face combat against one known for ambush or guerilla tactics against each other, because, like, whoever wins in that is honestly going to depend more on the context of the situation. Hell, the concept of the show is pretty flawed for the sheer fact that individual skill is probably going to matter more in a fight than outright fighting style and weapon loadout.
Yeah, and he did use ambush tactics...but a ninja/shinobi wouldn't have attacked him in broad daylight...for sure. More than likely would've just shot him in the eye with a bow from 50 yards away in a tree lol.
Nah, even more likely he would have disguised himself as the quartermaster, poisoned the Spartan army's rations or water, and left without a word

This episode really showed that cracks in the show for a younger me. Especially with the black eggs. Like, it's supposed to incapacitate a person, but since it doesn't penetrate, bleed or whatever, there's no model in the spreadsheet.
That Spartan guy was taking this so seriously. It was genuinely funny as fuck
You forgot the best part. When ninja tries to ambush spartan by jumping out of a tree and yelling to give away his position
The king Henry episode vs Shaka Zulu made me really uncomfortable when the Shaka Zulu expert started throwing a fit when king Henry started winning. And he said his war cry was num num, num num. and he acted like it was the most terrifying battle cry ever it was fucking embarrassing 😂
It was William Wallace but yeah
I thought that kick was a little funny and cool. he quickly determined how far he had to be away from the effigy to fully extend his leg and not hit it in the face, smooth controlled movement, chambered the kick bring it in, plant down, display of good martial arts technique, and could balance with his foot right infront of what looks like someone's face. he distanced himself perfectly so that the foot would stop, like a bullet that stops right infront of your face. just as you think you're going to die, huh? it stopped, because I have adroitly distanced myself so that the kick would stop just short of your face and you would not die or lose an eye....maybe.
The biggest injustice in the show was done to the knight in season 1. Knight fought pirate and lost because pirate has guns, the pirate was even listed as a “modern warrior” in the finale.
I thought they always pitted warriors with gunpowder with other warriors with gunpowder, in other words opponents were evenly matched.
Ninja vs pirate and samurai vs spartan would've been better
@@awol8065 They would do Samurai vs Spartan when they came back for season two.
@@justThisFoolsamurai wins on another show called warrior showdown
The knight would have never lost so they had to get him out of there. There was no other ancient warrior who could have beaten him, because he had the best armor and armor penetrating weapons
The reason i felt these guys were so edgy towards each other is they have some lineage tied to the warrior they're representing. I always got a sense of underlying prejudice on this show.
More likely, they either think or want to have some lineage tied to the warrior they're representing. I seriously doubt they have any real lineage to any of it.

I love how they treat glass shards in your eye as something that can be shrugged off in 3 seconds when it would permanently ruin your vision as well as cause immense pain.
This show basically inspired Ubisoft to make their so called "iconic" game, "For Honor."
Wait, you’re telling me THE Slytherin Studios made the Deadliest Warrior computer program? I take it all back! Everything in this show is completely accurate!
I love in the simulation that it starts with the ninja, in a tree and behind the spartan. Why wasn't the whole battle a poison dart then him searching the ancient worlds equivalent of Yelp to figure out dinner plans?
That and at the beginning when the ninja jumps out of the tree and sneaks up on the spartan the ninja literally yells announcing his presence lol. Like fuck off a ninja would never yell before his attack especially when sneaking up on an enemy he clearly had no idea he was behind him.
This show is classic entertainment. May not have aged the best but this show was interesting.
fine glass in my eyes has been one of my irrational fears ever since i watched this episode as a child
the thing I always found funny was them taking two vastly different ways of fighting for the contestants so it is almost always a one sided fight.
And i love the outdated knowledge of the ninja they have probably previous to the translation of the bansenshukai became a more common book
It's essentially a 90's movie ninja fighting a half decent spartan
Racially motivated
That’s why when I was younger I just enjoyed it for what it was🤣💯
While I wasn’t in a SOF group I was with the 10th Mountain who deployed twice and don’t recall ever being issued a short sword so I guess I’m confused on how he honed his skills with a sword as a green beret for 10 years…
Alot of down time in the barracks I guess lol
Backyard sword practice with bottles like a nerd I'm guessing lol
Literally just saw that part while reading your comment 😂😂
I was thinking that same thing. Like i know some military knives are pretty big for knives but like, what does being a green beret have to do with knowing how to use a sword designed over 2000 years ago
Barry is also a military historian which is why he was there mostly. He has a thing for the Spartans. If you watch the aftershow for the episode they talked about it.
“The whole training regiment was designed to make him hard” is actually fairly accurate considering what we know about ancient Greeks and Spartans 😂
What you're referring too is inaccurate
Ah yes the battle of Thermopylae, and it's 300 Spartans... and 700 Thespains, 900 Helots and 400 Thebans, but we don't talk about them.
This episode is buried in my mind. Both because the ninja experts were crazy, but also the black egg. The doctor was like "oh he'd be blind" then saw the "simulation", the egg did nothing and got no kills.
Nah the Spartan 'experts' were crazy, Ninja experts just tried to emphasize what a ninja is. That bit about ninja running away and killing someone in their sleep is 100 percent accurate. They were basically peasant spies improvising ambushes the majority of the time.
@@Nefariousbig Most ninja were samurai, not that ashigaru couldn't become shinobi, but to my understanding the majority of the time a shinobi was a samurai with unique duties more related to espionage. You say the bit about the ninja running away and killing somebody in their sleep is 100% accurate, the problem with that statement is that there's no evidence shinobi were ever involved with assassination. You can't really prove or disprove that ninja ever performed assassinations, but what is for certain is that it wasn't a focus nor anywhere near their main duties.
@@jacobdonnely2608 it's less about their proclivity to assasinate and more about the nature of the confrontations they would be involved in. They were not head-on shielded warriors like the Spartans, they chose to strike at the opportune moment to take down a more heavily armed opponent. Maybe they wouldn't literally always come back and kill people in their sleep, but evade and try and catch them unawares? Absolutely.
@@Nefariousbig It is very apparent you have little to no understanding of the actual role shinobi played in japanese society during the sengoku period
@@jacobdonnely2608 weren't ninjas mostly just farmers that fought back any way they could? And the ninja we came to know is mostly myth and fairy tales.
Or I misremember and ninjas were, more professional and hiding among peasants.
Anyway, the reason why a lot of stereotypical ninja weapons look like farm tools, is because they 100% were. The reason being that peasants weren't allowed weapons so they had to improvise. The Kama is a scythe, the Kunai is a trowel, etc. Their signature look is also just farm clothes.
I love how "karate black belt" made you sound invincible in the mid 2000's...
What I thought was really peculiar was that in the episode Mafia vs Yakuza, they actually considered the baseball bat to be a “weapon”.
and then later they did the Capone Vs. Jesse James and of course the cowboy would win.
@@kinagrilleven tho al had a semi automatic gun
Mafia wins they had guns yaks didn't
It looks in some scenes like they just found a deserted barn in the middle of no where and some friends got together and decided to LARP around. (Especially the scene where the guy gets all the Roman costume on , where you said "you know he just willingly put all that on.") I feel like they had a lot of breaks and there's this one guy who kept trying to wear all the costume (cuz that would be me ). They couldn't get him to take it off until they promised to video it for him.
This is one of the only episodes I remember from my childhood mostly because how unbalanced it was
Shaka zulu vs william wallace was insanely unfair lmfao
@@noonefromnowhere7945 yeah honestly alot of the match ups in that damn show were unbalanced as fuck
@@pisspoorplutocracy9055
Pirate vs Knight another one that was just a weird match.
@@fallenknighttyler8695 yeah I guess there was a reason the show was replaced by Bar Rescue
I love that they use a ninjato sword despite the fact that there is no actual evidence that ninja used those in the Feudal era.
I’m a use of force instructor and the amount of “oh yeah, but did you think about this” in the industry is non-stop
I never expected this was going to be so funny, your almost as sneaky as the Ninja....I mean Jeremy. Subbed and now looking for the rest of your episodes.
I watched this episode when it originally aired. And it is, for me, the most iconic episode. And not in a good way. Shit will be burnt into my memory forever. Its like every major issue with the series boiled down into one episode. And its so funny that they seemed to think it was their best work, considering it was a major part of the advertising as well as the hoplite helmet inside a shuriken being their literal logo.
I sneezed when he threw the sand, love how interactive your videos are!
Also the sound you made when describing the dummies is now living in my head forever, many thanks
The idea that a ninja would just have an upfront battle with a Spartan is hilarious.
*Ninja breaks egg containing glass shard by slapping his hands together*
"Ahhhhh, my fucking hands!!!"
Spike TV doctors tend to be extremely unnecessary, but I like them in the "thank you Doctor Obvious" sense. Sure, they aren't truly needed but it's always got a chuckle out of me seeing their reactions.
you kidding? I'm a medic. of they told me od get paid to talk out my ass for 30 minutes on spike TV I'd be the most dramatic expert you ever saw lol
@@thac0twenty377 I said they are unnecessary, not that they can't be fun.
if it was to check if an injury would be lethal, debilitating or just scary-looking for essentially superficial, etc. that'd have been useful.
I can't tell you how excited I was to see you uploaded another deadliest warrior video, what does that say about my life?
It says you get it 😂
You're the deadliest warrior
Fun Fact: The Spartan expert actually got in an argument with his wife about who would win, Spartan vs Ninja. That’s how the show got green lit, plus he got to prove his wife completely wrong.
He more or less confirmed in the Aftermath/Podcast he knew she was right but thought it’d be cool to use as a launch pad for a series.
wait so both him and his wife got in to an argument both supporting that the spartan will win?
@@petrospago3515 his wife said ninja. He said spartan.
@@TDWTB then how he proved her right if he proved the spartan will win?
@@petrospago3515 sorry I had to edit my comment. He proved her wrong but in the aftermath said it was more likely if they took into account for stealth and other factors Ninja would win.
@@TDWTB suddenly this episode makes SO much more sense, with how one-sided it was towards the spartan and how it completely removed the context for a realistic ninja's style.
I always assumed the poor visibility of the helmet and the ninjas movement would make this battle last a lot longer than it did
The visibility of those helmets actually isn't terrible. If it's properly fitted, it is fairly close to the skin, and doesn't get in the way much.
@@stillcantbesilencedevennow right plus you're protected enough at the head anyways so turning your head to look wouldn't be that much a of deal, especially for a Spartan
@@stillcantbesilencedevennow300 told me otherwise
Don't sell yourself short Chris, you are an expert. And you're correct, the spear does 5 piercing damage.
I really want them to reboot Deadliest Warrior with modern science, graphics, and a bit more care to do it right. Granted, it's always going to be hypothetical and situational, but I feel like a better version of this show could be so damn good. But like, actually good.
Deadliest Warrior was always the coolest thing ever. Your testosterone is just in the single digits.
Does the Spartan guy not know what a Samurai is? The ninja weren’t fighting "naked savages," they were fighting warriors even more armored than the spartans, and WON.
I was laughing my ass off this whole video omfg🤣
I brought it - I’m wearing it 😂- my lungs 🫁 I can’t breath anymore ❤
I love your videos on this show. Only so much you can do w/ a fixed number of episodes but so few creators actually make content about DW. It’s a crime. Please make more lol
I think you should check out “Animal Face-Off”. It was Animal Planets “Deadliest Warrior” for all of one season
I second this
Omg yes i totally forgot about that show wasn't there one with dinosaurs too
@@tlbryant4697 I forgot about that! Jurassic Fight Club!
@@kherron1991 yea I thought so that one cracked me up like we would know how dinosaurs would fight lol
Yes! It be been saying this. If Chris thinks the way they’re testing is absurd he needs to watch Animal Face Off
The only thing that really bugged me about this match up was they gave the ninja a handicap with the Shurikens (which weren't even use or meant to kill), blow darts and black eggs. That's not even adding in the factor that ninjas used explosives and guns but that obviously would have made the match completely one sided
I just love that they got everything wrong about ninja. Just everything. The clothes, the weapons, everything. It makes me laugh every time. Clearly these guys went to the Ashida Kim school of being a ninja.
A master of subterfuge, espionage, and assassination would MOST CERTAINLY run around with a very distinct sword that translates to … “ninja’s sword”. Pull the other one
I’m so happy you did so many deadliest warrior episodes! My sister and I used to watch when we were kids
You are amazing! Im glad you are blowing up! Keep up the strong work!
I second that.
When the narrator said the words “300 Spartans” I instantly recognised the voice! It’s David Wenham, who ironically played Dilios in the movie 300 and Faramir in LOTR among many other roles.
First video of your's I've seen. Subbed now for more. Calm, engaging, funny analysis, banter and trolling. New Fan!
The random guy looking at the trauma was fucking hilarious!!! This was one of my favorite shows growing up like top 3 and you have definitely brought the memories flooding back and yea I'm drowning in this goofy ass nostalgia!
I've been binge watching so many of your videos. And bruh lmao top tier stuff. And deadliest warrior are literally in the middle of nowhere filming 11:56 🤣😂 that pic was wild
I absolutely loved this show. But, just like you said, the thing i hated most were the experts getting defensive about their "warriors" abilities being better. Side note, the video game was actually really good
That comment about spartans being trained to be hard is a lot worse considering that they were trained from a very young age and spartan trainers were notorious pedophiles. Also Barry would probably go into a fit of rage if you reminded him of that.
So... when the spartans in 300 say "we drilled them from dawn 'til dusk'.... oh no... 😱
I got the feeling Barry was wayyyy too emotionally invested in the spartan thing. Especially calling the ninja cockroaches and all that? Like it's very weird for a grown ass man in the modern world to be talking like a spartan back in the day would talk about "inferior" peoples. He'd also probably be pissed if he was reminded that the only reasons the spartans had such advanced soldiers and an intense tradition of eugenics was because they were horrified of a slave uprising, said slaves composing the overwhelming majority of their entire labor force. So it's not about honor or whatever other bullshit, they just didn't want to farm or do anything else productive so they learn to fight good so their slaves don't murder them
@@grumpfrog8602 would not be surprised if there were racial undertones to calling em that
@@DEFxRECON i got similar vibes, especially with him being so condescending to the guy he kept grabbing on, which is still really bizarre to me that he insisted on doing that repeatedly
When in Greece lol
Please dont end this. I wanna see more deadliest warrior episodes /:
Just dropped a new one today
@@abrahamwashington8579 I saw it. I need more
@@gloomykasumi8580 right. For chris to even say the words "i should do every episode in order" is a Great sign tbh. Idk if u ever saw moonshiners but i would love to see him do a few episodes of that. Tbh no matter what it is i would watch it
@@abrahamwashington8579 Unfortunately he since stopped.
Love your sense of humor bro the way you say lines for them is priceless
Ah yes, the famous swordsmanship of the green beret's.....🤦♂
FYI :
Actor David Wenham, the narrator from 300, did the narration for this, as well as 8 other episodes of Deadliest Warrior. 😉
My big problem with this episode is that the "ninja" doesn't use a bo when he's up against a spear. Why would he not take the weapon with the most advantage?
This is about when 300 came out. I remember as a kid knowing the spartan would win cause of the 300 craze
Attempted BDE, I'm assuming.
@@domingoahernandez90 THIS IS SPARTA !!!
Your biggest problem is that and not the fact that most of the show, especially the ninja portrayal, is disgustingly inaccurate?
Although a spartan probably would win most encounters it’s still an elite frontline unit against a spy. It’s unfair to put them against each other because of their roles alone.
If they did some historical research on Persian hassassin and put them up against each other that would have been a lot more interesting
"Barry honed his sword skills from 8 years in the Green Berets" I didn't realize that special forces trained with swords, talk about unconventional warfare.
More deadliest warrior episodes please. Every single one is just gold 😂😂
You’ve been cranking out the videos lately! Thank you for al the awesome content
Trying to watch this show on UA-cam for free is how I found your channel.
