On BBC3, anyone seen it?

Basically a bunch of Westerners who have gone to various tribes around the world and try there style of fighting, some of it's absolutely brutal.

Watch it if you get chance.
 
Yes its a brilliant show. I always meant to start a thread about it myself, but kept forgetting. It would have been better obviously, but yours isn't bad I guess Ret.

That Cory seems like a complete wuss, you can see he doesn't have the heart to even attempt to win one of the competitions. And I wish Mark would stop going on about his dad. Fair do's you miss him, but he died like 13 years ago or summit. I understand you want to win for him, but dedicating every little thing to him is a bit cringeworthy to be honest. And that whole 'I used to be an underachiever thing' is a bit annoying. Plus hes a Brummie.

Other than that, top show. That Riko or whatever the feck he is called, has got it won I reckon.
 
It is a good show. During the last episode that I watched, they competed in a marathon against a village community in Mexico. They had to run an incredible distance at high altitude under the blazing sun, wearing sandals made from old tyres whilst avoiding hazards such as poisonous snakes!

I was in awe at the fifteen year old Mexican boy who apparently completes the same course in very little time on a daily basis without appearing out of breath. I think he should represent Mexico in the Olympics; he would kick arse!

That Mark lad does seems to have some kind of anger problems though when he fights, he just goes for it. Brad is incredibly strong as well, I was watching it last night where they was doinf kid of kick fighting and he was just booting these people all over the place, still lost mind.

Jasons the nutter, hes got balls I kind of hope he wins. And not just because he bmxes. He doesn't back down, he was the first one to challenge in the kick fighting and in the stick fighting episode he was the one who grabbed that stick with the meat and got battered. None of the others put themselves forward, you know if there is a challenge its going to be jason who takes it up. Thing is hes all balls and not much skill which is why I see that guru bloke winning.

Brad should do good in the next one- mongolian wrestling I think. Hes all strength and no stamina, you could see how much he was suffering on the Mexican long distance run. The wrestling one could be his only chance to win to be honest, strength is his only asset as far as i can see.

That's him Jason! I thought it was Mark that was the nutter. Which one is the scrawny ginger one with the posh accent? He looks out of place with them all.

I thought Brad would of done better then he has on the stick fighting one and even the kick fighting one just because of his sheer strength both lower and upper body. Have you seen what they've got to wear for the Mongolian wrestling? They're going to look like right penis's.

Thats cory. Hes the long distance 'expert' funny that on the long distance race he mysteriously aggrevated his shin splints. Still convinced he was faking it to be honest. Hes not got the heart at all. At least that posh Oxford kid is giving everything a good go, even if he is the scrawniest of the lot.

:lol: yeah I know. Mind you did you see the advert for it? One of them neutered some goat by basically ripping its testicles off with his hands. Not sure I'm too keen on seeing that bit :nervous:

:lol: Yeah I saw that, they then just threw it into a bucket. Looked very disturbing.

Almost as disturbing as seeing gorwn men wrestle in giant nappies and a tribe of head hunters settle down for their meal of dog. Which you saw blissfully asleep only a few moments before they had it hogtied to a stick.

Its a wonderful show, it really is.
