[FREE] A Deadly Show

Deadliest Warrior is a show that talks about historical and modern warriors and their weapons to determine who is more deadly. The way it works is that they pick two historical or contemporary warriors, or two historical individuals. The hosts explain their culture, history, and fighting philosophies. They then test out the  weapons they used on various targets, like a mannequin or a dead pig. After they determined which weapon is better, they put the data into a simulator. And the purpose of a simulator is to see the warriors battle so the winner can be decided. 

From watching this show, I learn many powerful and intelligent warriors and what they did in their time period. Some famous and well known warriors I was familiar with, while some I don't even know. I never knew that George Washington participated in the American Revolutionary War, or that Joan of Arc led the French army to victory in the Hundred Years' War. The weapons these warrior use are magnificent. Hannibal's War Elephant and Joan of Arc's Seige Cannon did major damage to their enemies and were triumphant with them. When I first watched this show, I was amazed. Its amazing because they give a lot of background information on the warrior and when I listen to that, I learn a new thing! Learning this in history class can be a fun thing. When we are at a certain topic, our teacher can show a clip that relates to the topic. You should give this show a try so when your teacher talks about about a famous warrior, you will know the answer!
