#1 Deadly Warriors is one of the most absurd shows on television. The program does not take into account a myriad of variables encountered in combat.

#2 Oh, it's fun. My 12 year old loves it. It does give some background on historical warriors. He's partial to the Spartans.

other match ups include

- Taliban vs. the IRA
- Comanche vs. Mongols
- Samurai vs. Ninja
- Pirates vs. Ninja (kidding on this one)

Fun show, just don't take it seriously.

#3 "They are among the greatest soldiers in the world."

Ought to be left there but this is the stuff of Hollywood, entertainment, glitz and ratings.

#4 Other possible matchups:

Village People vs. Independent Women's Football Champions

#5 Anything past the loose background and equipment section is goofy.

#6 Hey, the SEALs won! Maybe the show has some credibility after all . . . . :-)

I'm sure we have lots to learn from each other, but it seems to me that Krav Maga is the deadlier form, but hopefully the warrior would never have to use it.
