  • Great Martial Arts...

    9.5
    "Superb"
    I love this show. It really takes you to the roots of the Martial Arts and showa you how things began. It also shows you something about the culture and history that surrounds some Martial Arts.
    Each episode has a nice time line to watch. You start with the history, then the outlining of the challenge, then the training with several great people of the Martial Arts and then finally the challenge.
    The presentation is really nice, when they start telling you stuff you can almost taste their enthousiasme about it.
    I only wish that I would be able to make such trips and learn the Martial Arts from the best in the world.moreless

    Good show if your looking for some spice in your documentaries this show was it. The premise of two athletic but pretty much regular guys tackling the worlds fighting styles was very captivating. Each week you wondered if Jason or Bill would be made a complete fool of or prevail. The show also revealed some things about other countries. It was very eye opening to see a champion get pummeled by one of the guys on their home turf. I don't know why the show was canceled perhaps the host moved on but it was certainly a draw for those of us who may have grown board with the history channel.moreless

  • Fight Quest is better.

    This show is very similar to the Discovery Channel show, Fight Quest. Human Weapon follows two people, Bill Duff and Jason Chambers, as they travel the world and learn different fighting styles from that area. Human Weapon goes into the physics of each move and tells you how much damage it will do and how fast the blow is going and so on but it doesn't actually show you the type of training you have to do like Fight Quest does. Also in Human Weapon they just focus on a few moves that can be very powerful in a fight. It's an overall good show just not as good as Fight Quest.moreless

  • Travel the world learning different martial arts.

    "Great"
    Hosts Bill and Jason travel around the world to learn a martial art popular in that region and train under a master and eventually fight one of the better students under the masters teachings. As someone who practices martial arts, this show is awesome. I love the way that they break down each move and technique to show all the power and skill it really does take to execute such a move. The main fighters, Bill and Jason, also are interesting and it is fun to watch them in fights against someone who is more talented then them. Overall, this is one of my favorite shows and hope they continue to make new episodes.moreless

    So?
    You Wanna be a Human Weapon?
    This series helps you to your goal one step closer. If you dont know how to begin, or which martial art is gonna fit for you, than this is your show.
    Jason Chambers, and Bill Duff are on a journey to learn more and more fighting styles around the globe. Kung-Fu, MuayThai, Silat, MMA and so much more. These 2 pro fighters learn from true masters, and demonstrate the moves, so you can choose, which one is the best. And at the end of each journey, they have to face a real Human Weapon, the champion of that style. I recommand this show to those, who like take care of your mind and body... and likes martial arts. :P :Dmoreless
