Deadliest Warrior - S01E02 - Viking vs. Samurai.avi Viking vs Samurai The savage Scandinavian raider that plundered Europe for three hundred years, against the blinding speed and skill of Japan's elite warrior class. It's power versus speed, axe against sword, berserk rage against precision, as these heavily armored legends face off in a battle to the death. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If I hear another "Pirate Vs. Ninja" quip…I'm gonna hurt someone., 9 April 2009 Author: pinoyartist99 from California, USA When I first saw the preview to this show a while back, I thought to myself, "I blame the whole PIRATE VS NINJA Internet Meme" for creating this bizarre show. So, I watched the pilot, which was "Apache vs. Gladiator" and overall, I am biting my cheek right now because I recall watching something similar to this on Discovery Channel a few years back called "Animal Face Off" where "battle data" is taken from the contenders and put in a computer simulation. I actually, have an episode of that show titled "Hippo vs. Bull Shark" and the result of that fight still annoys me, but still I can't stop laughing about it. Another show, that similar that show is currently airing is "Jurassic Fight Club." Anyway, "Deadliest Warrior" has a similar to motif to "Animal Face Off" and "Jurassic Fight Club", but instead of wild animals or dinosaurs, this show uses types of warriors. I'm not sure if I should classify this as something in the realm of shows like "Human Weapon", "Fight Quest", "Weapon Masters", "Deadliest Art", "XMA: Extreme Martial Arts" or "Fight Science." Overall, this show is pretty decent for all the corniness the show offers. It will irritate you, but at the same time make you laugh; thus pulling you as the viewer to watch the show for what its worth despite knowing how stupid it will eventually become as time goes on. But you just can't help yourself. Man, I can just see something like "Deadliest Monster Face Off" in the future and it will feature stuff like "Mummy vs. Zombie vs. Werewolf vs. Vampire" or something bizarre like that.

Nonsense, the Viking would have won. THey did NO tests on the Japanese lacquered leather armour. The sper would ahve gone right through it.
Of course the viking would've won, but media are obliged to uphold the myth that samurais were, in fact, jedis.
As one who actually has tried to wield bladed weapons against chainmail i must say that the
mail used in the test must have been a modern one - and not one made from unpure iron as would have been the case of the viking mail shirt
A steel-tipped arrow is not stopped by a primitive iron chainmail - especially not without a
padding underneath to soften the blow.
Further most vikings did NOT own a chainmail shirt - they were very expensive and rather clumsy for a man of the sea.
Also most viking swords would have been made of iron - and would in fact have been one-edged (the scramasax or just 'sax')
The Samurai armor is too complex to describe - some were no better than thick cloth others were the equivalent of the finest medieval steel armor.
The samurai had a very long span of existance - the viking a rather short one.
The vikings had to build longships, sail them, plant, cultivate and harvest the fields, build houses and much more.
The samurai had to learn how to fight.

You're all wrong. The correct answer is, of course, Chuck Norris.
The best/perfect warrior would be the one armed with the Samurai's Katana and armoured with the Viking's chainmail. Sort of a hybrid/crossover between the two.
Simply love the Samurai's "Quick-draw". It's a legendary style.
Are people not forgetting that samurais DID in fact have chainmail - and that it was actually made of steel in contrast to the soft iron-chainmails of the vikings.
If they had tested the katana against such a chainmail the result would have been very different

Number one: Those of you who think that a samurai's yoroi was made of leather should be shot in the asshole. It was made of lacquered IRON PLATES among other materials. The test on the samurai helm was an example of the strength and deflecting abilities of the METAL samurai armor.
Number two: Unless a samurai came from a very wealthy family he, too, was required to sow and reap crops or perform tasks other than constant training for warfare. You people are consuming the shit of myth if you think otherwise.
Number three: Vikings are douchebags and the viking "experts" on this show represent their people very well. Just check out the part where they scramble to defend the strength of the viking shield after the martial artist destroys 1/4 of it with the studded club.
"A viking could use this shield in 10 more battles!!!"
Yeah, unless the samurai hit it once more with that fucking massive club... Viking's arm would have been broken and dislocated from the initial blow, but whatever. "We're vikings! We're invincible!" Douchebags.
Anyway, they said on the show that the results were very close, so get over it.
Samurai rule.
Vikings drool on hog cocks.

FFS everyone stop saying the viking would have won. An everyday person against a professional fighter who does nothing else, who has their grappling techniques still trained, worldwide, against an everyday person.
To the video, that guy says the vikings couldn't farm their land enough to feed the family so they were forced to invade europe? Fucking american learn about something else than your failed USA. Summer 2010, the temperature was above 40C at some places, a temperature high enough to grow some wheat? Another stupid thing was in that battle, when the viking took his shield without taking his axe up, just after that vikingfreak telling that the shield is just a secondary weapon.
Another thing is that the vikings wasn't really, really born trueblood warriors, just the population in scandinavia at that time. If to be meantioned it should be for being expert seamen.
Btw, what is a viking?Just someone born from someone from scandinavia at that time? You didn't have to be a well trained warrior just to be called a viking. Born from someone from scandinavia, would that make a thousand copies of me able to kill 400something samurais? dream on..

Just so that you people know, Vikings were mercenaries and were hired by rich people. Vikings did not ALWAYS plunder. In swedish "Viking färd" (Viking trip) actually meant to go and trade goods ect.
Sorry for double post but I forgot to add that there was a special place where you could be trained a warrior. The term Viking wasn't used until a lot later and A LOT of myths and if you're curious I recommend that you do some research before you post something stupid. :D
Take a viking, make him servile and ten times uglier, dye his hair black, shrink his height by a foot and his dick by half, and you got yourself a samurai. :)
