This is just an reminder for anyone who missed the show this weekend.
“Human Weapon,” which airs on The History Channel, follows two dudes across the globe who train in various martial arts disciplines.
I scoped it out on Friday and it was not that bad. The animation is pretty sick.
Check out the program if you have some time.

that shit was badass
I saw the previews for this on the discovery channel, and was interested but didnt get to watch it. I was surprised when I saw this posted. Thanks.
THC is the best channel on TV… sooo much great info.
The bigger guy is annoying. The small dude actually knows what he is talking about because he went pro but the big dude is a looser who thinks that he can win every fight because he can over power them. That bug guy looks like he has no fighting experience and just looks clumsy when trying to kick, punch, elbow, or knee. It was funny when the big guy was talking to the smaller guy and to the camera, and said “the Thai fighters are faster than me, and also faster than you.(referrig to the smaller host)”. It looked like the smaller guy was thinking in his head, dont lump me into the same speed category as your slow fat @ss. I think I will stop watching the show because that dude is down right irritating. You can see in his face that he is relieved that the Thai master didn’t pick him to fight the Thai champ. I wish they would have picked that fat dude so that the small Thai fighter could work him.
The Thai fighter didn’t even look like he was trying against the small host (which was bigger than the fighter interestingly enough.) Watching the video of the Thai fighter in a real match eating up his opponents was great. I wish he would have murdered that host but it looked like a glorified sparring session.
I agree the animation were totally sick. You could almost feel every punch and kick through the animations. I like the thumping sound after every strike.
I can’t believe comments are dead on this thread. Did anyone SEE the show?
I saw the show and thought it was bad ass. Where are they going next week? I saw they are learning Karate a few episodes later. By the way, Gregg is right. That big guy sucks.

If those flying knees were any indication, I will have to agree.
Sadly, I did not see this. I only have bunny ears and am obviously limited to what I can see on TV. I wish I could watch this and other UFC events at home. Yet, most of the time I have to go to the local bar or a friend’s house.
I had seen previews for this show, and was planning on watching at least some of it. Right before I went out on Friday, I went to record it, but I was running low on the space on my DVR and did’t have the time to bother looking for what I can delete without watching.
But how was it overall? Should I be watching it? Is the fat guy really that annoying that he is turning people away from the show?

It was on a friday night kinda late I work at night so no. And I wasn’t to watch tv at 2am but I will if they play it on my days off or when im home, looks promising.
A lot of that seems just for show or the “art” aspect of it. Is it all really that practical?
