My FAV episode. I knew the Shaolin Monk would win. At first, i thought the Maori would win, cause he has 3-4 edges. My favorite weapon of the Shaolin, was the staff cause I could make mutiple strikes . I can use the staff really good. For the Maori, the Mere, MAN!!! Crush the skull!!!

First off, I think this is a great idea for a program and I really enjoyed watching this! However, being a BME (biomedical engineer), I'd also like to point out a few things in defense of good science:
- The cow skull used was dried out, making it more brittle, and would have had an effect on flexural strength. All the muscle and fluid that help to absorb the shock were not there as well. Why not test the club on the torso replica since the goal is to find damage done to humans and not to cows?
-The testing of the Maori club vs. "steel" was a poorly designed experiment. How can one verify that the Maori warrior is using the same amount of force during both the club and steel knife tests? Does the person supplying the force already have a bias? In addition, if you're testing the material properties alone, shouldn't one make a Maori club out of steel and then test that against the nephrite jade? Knife's are meant to cut, not to smash. There's a reason baseball players use bats instead of swords.
-The monks' iron-bone training should have been factored in. Shaolin monks spend a great amount of time increasing the density of their bones and the thickness of their skin. In a National Geographic special, it stated that their skulls are thought to be 4x harder than an average human's.
-Overall, I thought they should have tested all weapons on the torso replicas. Breaking pots filled with paint and cow spines is entertaining, but has a less direct correlation to what the impact might be on a human body. In defense of the Maori, it seems that they have less documentation about their training regimens, etc. Who knows if they once had an equivalent training to iron-bone as well.
Mythbusters does a great job of balancing good science with entertainment, so it would be excellent to see this show on par too since it's such a great idea in the first place. All the best to season two!

On another note those Bricks that guy smashed through with the jade weapon thing. MONKS Smash though bricks on a daily basis with their bare hands. I bet a highly trained monk could break though all those bricks with one strike with his bare hands. And why don't they have a monk there they only have wushu masters.

I mean absolutly no disrespect to the Maori warrior. But the Shaolin Monks won and deserved to win. That guy that said the computers probably Chinese who thinks brute strength is everything. I dare him to climb up to the top of the Shaolin Monastary and challenge the master. I mean they train all day. The Shaolin monk training is very tough and they start from a very very young age. They're training is probably harder than Marine training. Seriously have you seen what they can do.
Also on another note if you think about it From an outside perspective. Shaolin monks are peaceful vegetarians who never attack and only defend whereas the Maori Warriors are fighters who do attack and they are cannibals. Now who looks like the good guy here(and by the way I seriously am not disrespecting the Maori I'm just stating something) The cannibal warrior or the kick ass vegetarian priest. Chances are in a movie the monk would be the good guy.
Anyway if the monk had lost I'd be pissed off.

There was a mistake in this battle. When the Maori warrior was chaseing the Monk, the Monk brought his other weapens but the Maori left his other weapens behind. I guess there is the old saying anything can happen in battle. And no he did not crab them cause he chased the Monk straight away without looking back to his weapens.

This, out of all of the shows, was my favorite. The Shaolin Monk made the Maori his bitch in the fight despite the fact that the Maori got the edge 3 out of 4 times. BUT there is no way in hell the tooth club should've got the edge over the whip chain. Once those teeth break off, all the Maori guy had left was a spanking paddle. Plus, that stingray spear was a piece of shit as well. Same problem as the tooth club. Once those spines are gone, all you have left is a staff. Now he's in the Monk's court. Another thing: I think Sala softened up when he used the knife on those bricks and went nuts when he uesd the mere. And I agree with Aikidoist123. The Jo is deadlier that a simple wooden staff. if the Monk broght the jo into the fight, the Maori's tiaha would've been bitch-smacked.
PS When's the DVD hitting stores? I would like to see the weapons that "didn't have time to air."

the reason the shark tooth club got the edge is because a whip is used to cause severe pain... but not kill. you could still be alive after 5 hits to the face with the whip. on the other hand, the maori warrior is huge, and just one rending blow in nearly any part of the body would kill because of the glaive-shaped teeth swirling into the flesh, and its actually more deadly when the shards get in because they will cause agonizing pain, and will kill someone from shock or dig deeper until they hit a organ.

I'm glad I put my money on the Shaolin Monk. Their Steel weapons can kick Maori ass. I always said "It's not the size of the dog in the fight; it's the size of the fight in the dog that makes the difference." And that's why the Maoris got fucked up 692-308. If my bud just so happens to see this comment, he owes me $300.

I'm slightly disappointed in the choice of weaponry for the Shaolin Monk. I feel they should have used better weapons like the guan dao, spear, monk's spade, double broadsword, three-section-staff, or meteor hammer. I've also noticed in the show that the wind and fire wheels were tested, but they were not used in the final simulation. Why weren't any of these weapons used? The Shaolin Monk would've had a better advantage if a weapon like the monk's spade was used in place of the staff, or double broadsword in place of the Emei daggers. The warriors in this show should be represented with their highest potential. Every weapon of the warrior should be tested, then the best weapons of that warrior should be used in the final simulation. I guess the producers tried to make this battle a fair fight since most of the Shaolin Monk's weapons are made of steel, and the Maori weapons were made of wood or stone. But if this show is trying to find out who is the deadliest warrior, shouldn't each warrior be allowed to use their best weapons?

I absolutely agree with this result. The monks had more developed arsenals. I was wondering, is the ability to disarm included in the simulation, because if so the chain whip should get the edge. Also the staff and chain whip are meant to incapacitate and knock out. In reality if the monk knocked out an opponent he would help them but in this you have to assume that the monk would kill them. I agree the twin hook swords were the best weapon shown but I wouldn't combine the two swords and swing since it a simple parry would render that technique void and the recovery time might be a little too much. Good episode.

a better match up would have been Shaolin Monk vs. Ninja. I just think that with the technique involved we could get a better image on the power of the wepons. Technique and speed vs technique and speed. that way the sims are more fair, and it becomes a wepoms match up. which seems to be what the show is about anyway

I am disappointed that they consider that the Maoris are weaker, i feel that the guys missed some very important things that the monks don't even have a chance.
The women are just as deadly or worse then the males when it comes to war. They have deadly poipois that have glass shards and chipped rocks dipped in poisons and manure...if not deadly-the monk is losing a limb or two from poisonous infections.
There is also the little fact that even if the monk kills the Maori warrior it doesn't mean that the monk himself is going to live with all these poisons and pieces that dig deeper under the skin to the organs. In the Maoris mind, it is not necessary to have the enemy killed right away, if he falls and die because of the wounds the Maori left in him the tribe has considered it good.
So if the Shaolins wins the battle, the Maoris have won the war.

The Maori experts seemed to think that their size and brute force were going to be the deciding factor but.....you have to be able to hit your opponent for either size or power to be effective. I think even if these two warriors were to fight unarmed the outcome would be the same.This was a complete mismatch of styles. The shaolin style was made to counter aggressive brutes such as the Maori. I think it was a job well done on the fight simulation. The best I've seen on the show so far.

you guys are very innacurate! when you were testing the maori's mere greenstone club. to see if it was stronger than steel you had the maori weapon specialist use a steel kniffe. and then you had him use mere club. he could have just not tryed as hard with the steel knife and then tried his very hardest with the greenstone club. and plus when he was using the greenstone club he took a second strike at the bricks!! what kind of crap is that!?
