Limeyfellow...+1 your correct...Good show...they did everything from sword fighting to SWAT tactics. Real interesting.
The axe one was real funny and scary. He basically showed why the Vikings did so well by giving a guy a real sword (probably not fully sharp) and a wooden shield, then he picked up an real axe (again not real sharp) and said "Ready" and he proceeded to attack this poor guy. All the guy could do was cower and soil himself as this maniac literally went berzerker on him until his shield broke. The guy is brilliant but nuts.
P.S I agree...while I love History Channel shows...they are a greedy bunch
