    I have only one problem with this episode. They used a pistal for long rang pirates had flent lock musket for long range so yeah thats my only complant ok . PS. pistals are used along with blunderbuss to board enemy ships or merchent ships take your pick i mean piraterats did work as privetears for the british navy during the war between britain and spain.

    ok this wasnt a fair match up but the knight still should have won and the knight and samurie were the greatest swordsman in history. the cutlas ya its faster but it wouldnt go through plate armour the broadsword/longsword/warsword wat ever you wana call it would go straight through the pirate one blow,the thing that pissed me off the most was the pirate had like 5 pistols he should have only had one.

    all you people think the kight should have won well here are some reasons the pirate won



    1st pirates are the best sword fighters in world history. so when he pulled it out at 1:45 it was over for the kight even though the knight has armor the blunderbuss when the knight got through his armor he was starting to bleed out so thats also why he was getting flimzy as the fight went on

    2nd when he went to takle the pirate he snaped his neck then bang with the flintlock

    3rd the pirate had the blunderbuss and as i said back to the 1st thing i said he started to lose blood

    4th the cutlass was a hell of a-lot faster then the broadsowrd.

    last the granado when it exploded it damaged the knights ears so he couldn't hear or see and started to get concussed and a conncussion can kill someone even with armor so to who ever says that it should have 0 kills think about that knight fags



    P.S. I'm a Pirate desendent so i'm proud of my ansesstors kicking the knighs ass and also to the racest who say that the knight lost because he was french first of go FUCK yourself, and second the french in the middle ages had balls unlike the steriotype you here about them today saying there pussys. even though i'm british someone has 2 stand up 4 the french from these poor, rasest, cousen fuckers.



    P.S.S. to the ninja fans i also wanted NINJA V.S. PIRATE but the reason they didn't is it's a type of spoiler (exp. a review of a movie and what it's about before you se it) and it's a world wide TV rule if it is a spoiler by any means of the word then they cant do it so like the ninja fans I was really FUCKING PISS OFF that they did that but the game is coming out so there you can do it but if you can't then that is some feally fucked up bull-shit

    i hate to comment again, but now that ive read some more comments that made me thing, its really not SLIGHT inaccuracy, like the sword test they didnt think bout the knights armour, they never brought chainmail OR the all important sheild into testing, plus the pirates had an accuracy and misfire problen, along with the grenado being difficult to use...



    as for the grenado tho, the pirates were using them for some time so they could be used to the factors, but the failure for appropiate armor testing dissapoints me causing it to lack in realism...



    i do love this show, but i think this episode should be redone in season 2 and they should take more into account, by listening to what the viewers are saying(for the most part cuz loads of ppl are being dumb by just saying how they hate so-and-so)



    thankyou

    ok i think people are being dumb talking about the end clip, although they are correct after being hit with the "mourning star" TWICE hte pirate would be dead: HOWEVER thats just a clip, and has nothing to do with the results...



    i read won comment that was correct that was talking bout the knight would have chainmail as well, making this a little inaccurate, but oh well...



    i do feel that some things should be more researched. not that it would change the end results, but just little things, like the first weapon shown by the knights is NOT CALLED A MOURNING STAR!!!!! the mourning star is just the spiked ball at the end, the entire weapon would just be called a flail....



    i love this show, but they need to reconsider a few small things to get verything more accurate and a few comments on here can also helpo it a bit



    keep up the great work

    A few points or observations.

    1. The Knights of Malta were sea going Knights who made a living fighting pirates. As did the Knights from Cypress during a previous period.
    2. The Maltese Knights continued as a military sea force until displaced by Napoleon in 1798.
    3. Anyone who has a basic education in the history of European arms will have noticed that while still armored, the European Knight used firearms and grenade like weapons up through the late 1700s.
    4. The pirate made a living killing and stealing from mostly un-armed or under-armed merchant ships. They did not stand against military powers.
    5. The Royal Navy and Royal Marines stamped out European / American pirates operating in the Atlantic and Caribbean by the mid 1700s.
    6. The US Navy and US Marines stamped out North African pirates in the early 1800s.
    The traditions and fighting ethos of both Marine Corps being handed down from the traditions of the European Sea-Going Knights.

    you, my friend, speak of false statistics and seem to forget the time knights were around. The expert clearly states in the part when the guy shoots the blunderbuss at the armor that there was a thin plate, chain mail, and your two think lairs of padding. You are also forgetting that steel did not exist when those knights were around, which was also stated in the show. It would've made a difference if they calculated the impacts including the shield... but they didnt. Im sorry. And why did the pirate survive two blows from the morning star? 1. there was treasure abroad and 2. they werent really clean, direct blows. And when you talk about two thick lairs helping negate the effects of the grenado, in the scenario it was used in during the fight, the grenado was mainly used to stun and knock the knight off the horse. Have a nice day.

    I think I might be wrong in counting, but I'm too lazy to go back and look at the video, but it looked to me as though the blunderbuss misfired at least four times before it finally went off. Now, considering that it's 1,000 battles, that would mean that the blunderbuss would have misfired 800/1,000 of the times, meaning the count was WAY off. Certainly, if the blunderbuss was flawless each time, yes, it would have done a supreme amount of damage, and would have warranted the amount of wins.

    As for the other weapons, I'll agree, the cutlass would have been hard pressed to penetrate full knight armor, meaning the test with the unarmored pig was a sham. The grenado would have been incredibly hard to light at a moment's notice, and throw at exactly the right moment, given the different ratio of gunpowder each length of fuse would have during that time period, as well as other factors (i.e., water damaged gunpowder from exposure on ships, etc.) Also, the concussive force would have been powerful against the armor, but with two layers of leather padding, chain mail, and plate mail, it would have dulled even the force of that immensely.

    Overall, I could discuss the other weapons, but it should be clear to see that the knight had the edge, hands-down, due to the inconsistency of the pirate's greatest weapons. This show, while a lot of fun, and great to watch, REALLY dropped the ball on this episode.

    Many of the arguements stated for this episode are good, but I have one main thing to point out. The pirate is armed with quite a few firearms and in the process of the fight takes quite a few shots at the knight. The fight ends with him shooting the knight in the face. How did he do this? He is usnig flintlock pistols which are a one shot firearm and then have to be reloaded. Having used them I know it takes a few seconds to reload one. I don't see where he had the time to reload it so either he was hiding one somewhere or the computer forgot about the single shot factor.

    How efective are pirate weapons??? did you do an stadistical analisis on that?? I am Aerospace engineer and I have done mathematical simulation through computers and one thing we learned is how effective and reliable should be our equipment. Example, why do you think the major computer shuttle system is almost a decade old?? that is because is proven100% and space you can not have mistakes, stadistic should be like 100% certain because the lives of our astronauts depends on it. And that is why you ahave a mathematical simulation of your efectiviness and accuracy. One thing that I got from the show is the pirates weapons are no so effective and can fail anytime. Plus pirates, eventhough their are outstanding sailor trainning in the dirty side of fighting they dont have the discipline neither the effective weapons they required to succeed. Knight = today especial forces / pirates = today mercenaries. Knight armour and other defensive equipments have been carry out today through anti-terrorist / especial / comando forces. WHat pirates equipment has been carry out through moderm time?? I wouldnt want a gun that could JAM anytime on me plus the grenade didnt even do the job on the plate armour. Anyway, I dont know what mathermatical simulation you were doing but 2 factors are important in any mathematical simulation and that is efectiveness and accuracy, every engineer depends on that and those are important variables in any kind of mathematical and stadistical simulation. So that pirate, base on your own studies, would not gotten to the beach but certain on first blows....

    WAAGH???!!! The knight should have won, honestly what is with this pirate? He's like the new Iron Man without any iron on! First shot, he misses his mark, get's nailed in the head with a hit from the morning star (WHO SURVIVES THAT??); the pirate throws a grenado ON THE SHIELDED SIDE of the knight, so he shouldn't have been hurt from that; he then get's brutalized by the crossbow, then takes ANOTHER hit from the morning star, I swear the knight should have won that fight from the first blow that was, IN FACT (just so you pirate fans who cheer on for your maniacal pirate friend), from the beast, head-splitting morning star!!!

    THE PIRATE WAS RIGGED TO WIN....somehow.

    The one thing I didn't like about this was the Blunderbuss. If the computer says that the Grenado or Flintlock could get some kills, well I suppose the impact has some merit. The thing I didn't like about hte Blunderbuss is that so many things could go wrong with it, that the computer may not have accurately taken into effect. If the pirate shot it too soon it could miss. It might not hit a vital point. He might not even get a chance to use it. And worst of all? The misfire. I don't know if they did repetitive tests with the Blunderbuss to see on average how often it misfired, but if they didn't it seems like it would have been an important factor. Even if it only misfired say..... 1/10 times, you put that into 1000 battles and you have it misfiring 100 times. That's already 100 kills down, for a maximum of 900. Add in the chances of it missing, or not hitting a vital point, or again, not being able to be used before the Knight closed the distance? I'm not sure the computer considered all those variables.

    to all those who thinks european armor is the sh*t:

    excellent metal craftsmen they maybe, but it is a death sentence once you put that armor on the battle field.

    but the best of european military technology can not withstand the wit and armor piercing power of the Mongol army.

    lighter, faster, and handed the knights their asses every time.

    read up on history instead of fantasy dungeons and dragons, europhile numb skulls.

    Just watched the knight v pirate and too be truthful the out come was totally flawed for a start the grenade they had the fusses were not that good, so the speed of the knight on horse he would have gone past it also at the distance the pirate was he would have been taken out by his own weapon .

    Next the morning star was shown to do massive damage yet it did nothing to slow the pirate down, the cross bow bolt to the thigh in the pirate would of slowed him right down, not according to these guys, in truth the pirate would have probably been long gone as the knight arrived,

    there r many reasons why i think the knight shood of won, first they used a french knight which wasnt that strong they should of used a better one like one from Spain or from the Holy Roman Catholic Empire u know one with better wepons, armour, and guns. THE KNIGHT SHOULD HAVE KICKED THE PIRATE'S ASS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'm not sure if my comments are posting since this computer keeps lagging out, but I'll try this one more time. There is a serious problem with the explaination of this matchup, none of the pirate weapons showed a possitive killing potential vs the Knights overall armor, their best shot was one pellet of a scatter shot weapon going through a plate, and they didn't even check to verify the effectiveness of a shield and layered armor additions of either leather, quilting and chain. And their prized grenada didn't even show any penetration against plate armor, yet it was credited with massive kills. Than the Swords were matched up and they completely ignored the fact that the Pirates Cutlass, as well as any melee weapon, was worthless against the Knight.



    There's this massive upset of kills for the Pirates ranged weaponry when in actuallity, the crossbow was just as effective against an unarmored target as those firearms were against an armored one, and the crossbow has more accuracy and distance... So a Pirate playing cat and mouse wasn't a complete advantage for him. And the idea that a knight could even possibly get kills with melee weaponry was silly, there is this massive upset for firearms which weren't even proven effective, only capable, wile the knight had supreme advantages in melee, yet the pirate actually showed kills with things like the boarding axe and cutlass.



    If it's a technical victory, than the technicalities need to be show, because none of the demonstrations show knights getting killed by firearms, only maimed.

    I think the Simulation was very good but also misleading. The morning star cleary should've killed the pirate but you also have to understand the speed of each warrior. Knights were tanks and priates were agile to some degree. A crossbow wouldn't hit at long range because a pirate would dodge. Plus a priate can learn from his opponent he isn't going to go in all guns ablazing. Knights are steadfast warriors they are used to targets at close range within swinging distance. Pirates are versitile and so are knights but the knights favor close range and pirate favor dirty tricks. A grenado doesn't have to hit the target at three feet why not an inch from the head or how about at the feet.



    The longsword was awesome but it's a two handed weapon. A cutlass is a one handed weapon the one handed weapon made a gash but the longsword cut it in two with two hands. A shield is not as much a weapon like the Spartans. They were made for blocking then counter attacking. Pirates were terrible shots but they could trick their opponent about 50% of the time. They were sceemers not full force killers. Knights believe they were divine while pirates were looked at as rebels. In complete reality they are opposites it would definately come down to close range and a priate is equipped with fire power to topple some one then deal the finishing blow. Knights were not fast but great defensive warriors. Their sheilds don't cover 85% of their body only enought to cover their hearts meaning everything else is a weak point.



    I'm sorry Knight fans but Pirates won this with their minds not weapons.



    PS. Knights are not SPARTANS!!
