where is the fat guy?

oh come on. that skinny Filipino is every bit as insane. I mean, the dude did a spinning hook kick on a steak sandwich.


EvilHomer - 2015-08-07

Is he Filipino? I would assume, given the context and given his accent, that he's Nepalese, but I could easily be wrong!

His kick was pretty entertaining, and I find it funny how the white guy gave our Gurkha friend shit for doing that, but then performed his own kick attack a few minutes later.

whenever I see weird Indiana Jones knives I just automatically assume it's the Filipinos being Filipino.


EvilHomer - 2015-08-07

Yeah, that makes sense! The Philippines is very well known for its indigenous knife and machete-based martial arts; some of these weapons even have blades that closely resemble the kukri. However, this *particular* knife is of Nepalese design; they gloss over the history in this clip, but the short of it is, kukris are the signature weapon of the British Empire's Brigade of Gurkhas, a group of early "special forces" units recruited in the mountains of Nepal. So I'd assume, just on that, that he's Nepalese. Also, his accent, to my ears, sounds like a mixture between Chinese and North Indian, which would correspond to Nepal.

Of course, he could also be a Filipino knife fighter brought in to showcase the kukri; I guess we will never know...!

Incredibly awkward. The only thing that would've made it worse is some heavy breathing and crying afterwards.

EvilHomer - 2015-08-07

I want to ask that editor who his historical consultant is, and how he sleeps at night.

I was going to make a comment about how this show is pure pseudoscientific garbage, but I think that's an unnecessary observation at this point, seeing how they couldn't even go one minute without running headfirst into blatant lies and easily-researchable urban legends.


EvilHomer - 2015-08-07

OH, and THEN they conduct a "cutting test" on a slab of unclothed, pole-braced cow meat! I suppose the producers are hoping that we'll be so impressed with their "three-dimensional orientation sensor" that we'll ignore the flaws in their experimental setup, but no, sorry Dorkiest Warrior, doesn't work like that.


EvilHomer - 2015-08-07

Still, stars for them coming to the right conclusion for a change. England: 1 France: 0


TeenerTot - 2015-08-07

Oh come ooooon!
(eyeroll)

Did he say for the first time in over 50 years that someone was making a khukri? They make hundreds a month, you can get a world war 2 style khukri from both Khukuri House and Himalayan Imports.
