Such a shame for Panther to sustain an injury to her neck on Tilt which almost resulted in her being paralysed from the neck down and that was the point where Tilt should have been axed altogether
Oh, it's THIS episode. Yes, the one where Panther nearly crippled herself when she slipped off the Tilt platform and landed awkwardly. They should have redesigned the event to make it safer, but all they really did was eliminate the "draw" (go the entire 30 seconds without someone coming off the towers) and change the rule involving the rope (which was no longer attached to the participants and if the red marker reached the platform, that person won). And we not only had that event, but two other "dangerous" events in Pyramid and Pole-Axe. P.S.: I'm glad that they switched back to the normal uniforms from what we had in the heats.
And it was immediately after Nightshade's injury in Series 4 that the ropes were no longer attached to the belts, although that was because the belts broke during the incident. The red marker rule change came into effect when the second female contender, Kay Kershaw, went up against Amazon (Jenny's second pull, which was against Falcon (Nightshade's replacement) kept to the previous rules although the "draw" was eliminated).
I remember Jet being beautiful, I just didn't remember how good and competitive an athlete she was also, her performance on pyramid in this show was impressive athleticism
27:34 OH! THAT WAS A NASTY LANDING FOR PANTHER! FACE FIRST, FEET RIGHT OVER THE BACK! Such Chilling Words Said By John Sachs Back Then Nearly 30 Years Ago This Year! Thank God She Survived That Near Fatal And Potentially Back Breaking Fall Nearly Being Paralysed! 😱😨😰
Wolf: WHY DO YOU KEEP PICKING ON ME EVERY SHOW!!! Me: Why do you think you stupid idiot! John Anderson: I will keep picking on you until you learn to behave!!!
Me: Why Didn't You Vent You Anger On Cobra & Dean, The Men who Fell on You?! AND If You Were't so Lazy, NONE of this Would have EVER Happened, YOU CLOD!
I know Falcon is generally the nicest of the Gladiators, but I would not want to have run into her backstage after that Double Whammy on Pole-Axe...especially after that first one.
Tubewings It was bizarre how Falcon was chosen for Pole-Axe in this show, she never did The Wall (apart from Celebrity Specials) or many of the chase/speed games at this point. I thought if it wasn't Nightshade it would had been Scorpio or Jet, even Zodiac that be summoned to the Poles. Poor Falcon, think some of her family where there to see her. One lady before the 1st round with the banners, look like her sister.
@@Johnno9989 I was talking about this stage of her gladiators career. Hence why I said "at this point". She did the Wall in domestic competition once in season 4, twice in season 5, once in season 6 twice in season 7 and one more time in heat 2 of the final mini season 8.
It was also strange that Falcon was doing Pole-Axe for the Women, something must've been wrong with Nightshade after Power-Ball but she was still able to compete in Duel.
@@ashleywallace83 it’s certainly a very complex set up and set down. It was also the third event in the broadcast so filming it in order would be very time consuming as you said.
Wolf wanted to play the villain. He took the idea of playing the "bad man" to the producers who were reluctant at first. Eventually they caved and let him have fun with it.
Pregnancy hormones. This is why you don't have pregnant women or women on their period on TV, this coming from a woman. I know my TOTM I'm always in a dreadful mood and can snap at anyone for anything
18:56 John Anderson "He won fair and square, So you behave in a proper manner, Now be on your way" Wolf "He fell on me!" John Anderson "You must learn how to play the rules" John Fashanu "Be a sport" John Anderson "Ok?" Wolf "No Way" John Anderson "Sport" Wolf "WHY ARE YOU KEEP PICKING ON ME EVERY SHOW!"
Good thing they introduced these new contender attires. The ones in the heats were crap. Poor Dean. Got left many points behind due to that debacle on Pyramid and because he got Warrior on Tilt.
@@davidfearis7335 Fash left 2 years after Shadow was sacked. I think Fash left because of the Match Fixing allegations (whether he was sacked or not I don't know).
The fact this was 30 years ago is amazing! Where has that time gone!
Anybody watching in 2024
Paul Beswick and Paul Field are my faves in this series!
That was great sportsmanship from erica going immediately to panthers aid when she fell. She clearly knew something was seriously wrong.
Every time they crash through the paper finish I smile like the 1 st time lol This was the greatest show in the world
What a nasty fall for Panther esp from that height. You can see her openly swearing at 27:40
14:45 Jet & Lightning always the best tag team.
Nightshade is amazing! Queen of Duel and anything to do with hitting :). Really like her 😊
Such a shame for Panther to sustain an injury to her neck on Tilt which almost resulted in her being paralysed from the neck down and that was the point where Tilt should have been axed altogether
Zodiac 30:28 "Let's hear to panther as well"
27:34 OH MY GOD, Panther Nearly Lost Her Life after That Fall!😱🤕
JET AND LIGHTNING ARE AWESOME ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Saturday 5th November 1994
Haha I love how Wolf is basically an antihero now😂
Good sportsmanship from Erika after Panther's fall. I wonder if they have spoken to each other in the nearly 30 years after that happened.
"And I hope that John Anderson will keep picking on him until he learns to play by the rules."
Nostalgic arm trip.
Give me more.
27:04 Panther Falling Off While On Tilt
Such a nasty accident. Legs over the back!
That was horrible to watch. All these years on it still makes me wince.
@@paulrobins7093 She was clearly in agony too. If you watch her lips after she lands, you can tell she's saying "f*ck" over and over again.

And don't forget the injury Nightshade suffered in series 4!
That, too.
And it was immediately after Nightshade's injury in Series 4 that the ropes were no longer attached to the belts, although that was because the belts broke during the incident. The red marker rule change came into effect when the second female contender, Kay Kershaw, went up against Amazon (Jenny's second pull, which was against Falcon (Nightshade's replacement) kept to the previous rules although the "draw" was eliminated).
These outfits were better.
That is all.
Wolf was unlucky there tbf. He had his number until that unfortunate collision
I remember Jet being beautiful, I just didn't remember how good and competitive an athlete she was also, her performance on pyramid in this show was impressive athleticism
27:34
OH!
THAT WAS A NASTY LANDING FOR PANTHER!
FACE FIRST, FEET RIGHT OVER THE BACK!
Such Chilling Words Said By John Sachs Back Then Nearly 30 Years Ago This Year!
Thank God She Survived That Near Fatal And Potentially Back Breaking Fall Nearly Being Paralysed!
😱😨😰
Like the contenders uniforms from this point onwards.
Nicola Dale isthatthereweresome
Thisonelooksgreatdaytodayannounced
In fact these are my favourite contenders outfits.
The shot at 21.18 was interesting.
Can't believe my nana tried to convince me that fall was part of the show.
Wolf: WHY DO YOU KEEP PICKING ON ME EVERY SHOW!!!
Me: Why do you think you stupid idiot!
John Anderson: I will keep picking on you until you learn to behave!!!
Well said John!
David Fearis: Well said John Anderson!
Unofficial RED CARD for WOLF shoving Phil
It's the roles they play. It's all an act by Wolf, I hope you know that. He's a lovely man really
Me: Why Didn't You Vent You Anger On Cobra & Dean, The Men who Fell on You?! AND If You Were't so Lazy, NONE of this Would have EVER Happened, YOU CLOD!

Scorpio’s hair grew back so fast.
I always lose it when wolf screams quiet at the audience hahaah

@@gquinn4159 actually she did do the Wall once during series 8

She did the Wall in domestic competition
once in season 4,
twice in season 5,
once in season 6
twice in season 7 and one more time in heat 2 of the final mini season 8.
If TILT was played over water like in the revival it would'be been a lot safer for everyone I think.
One of the few things about the revival that was better
Water hurts too when you land like panther did, and if you're in pain,you can't swim
It was in the states when it was revived in 🇺🇸
At last on TILT, Warrior has a challenge in the form of Dean.
Unfortunately this was the Tilt where Panther was seriously injured.
It was also strange that Falcon was doing Pole-Axe for the Women, something must've been wrong with Nightshade after Power-Ball but she was still able to compete in Duel.
Pole-Axe wasn't Falcon's event.
I saw this one filmed live and as a fun fact they film pole axe first (even before the intro interviews).
@@AdamPearsonVideos I wonder if that's due to the time required to inflate/deflate the huge crash mat.
@@ashleywallace83 it’s certainly a very complex set up and set down. It was also the third event in the broadcast so filming it in order would be very time consuming as you said.
27:03 This Is what happend to panther
Poor Wolf - his job was to be the hissable villain of every show. I just found myself rooting for him.
Wolf wanted to play the villain. He took the idea of playing the "bad man" to the producers who were reluctant at first. Eventually they caved and let him have fun with it.
He’s the Gladiator we love to hate love him or hate him he was popular with many fans
Even when I watched this as a kid I loved wolf he was my favorite
He was most popular when I was a kid. They tried to play Saracen as a baddie too but never worked.
I was a child during the later half of these, it started before I was born.. But the ones I did watch, Wolf is the only one I remember.
Starting to wonder why Lightning didn’t do Pole-Axe in this episode. She would have been a better choice
19:25 YOU CALL THAT A SHOVE!!!

This Shocking 1st Quarter Final is Now 30 Years old!

Dean helps Phil score the points
Dean was gorgeous.
Jo looks like a young Katie Hopkins.
Twice Ulrika took what Phil said the wrong way, once after duel, and once before the eliminator.
Yeah she was rude. “That’s enough from you” she said at one stage

John Anderson "He won fair and square, So you behave in a proper manner, Now be on your way"
Wolf "He fell on me!"
John Anderson "You must learn how to play the rules"
John Fashanu "Be a sport"
John Anderson "Ok?"
Wolf "No Way"
John Anderson "Sport"
Wolf "WHY ARE YOU KEEP PICKING ON ME EVERY SHOW!"
It would have made more sense if John said to Wolf "If You HADN'T been Sitting on that step, None of this Would have Happened!"
Good thing they introduced these new contender attires. The ones in the heats were crap.
Poor Dean. Got left many points behind due to that debacle on Pyramid and because he got Warrior on Tilt.
16:40 Karma bites you in the ass, doesn't it guys?
hello lighting i love to meet you in person -p brown xx
u wouldnt now LOL
Lauras has been a great 😍💽💌👍👄💋👀❤️Ljlhdkd was my day night for a good one popl was a great night night
By what right does the Wolf judge the referee?!
Who are you to doubt El Wolfie?
It's his gimmick he's acting
WAR! What is it good for?
Absolutely profit
Supershow
I would love to wrestle with both Jet and Lightning. No harm done there.
I think Zodiac would be hard work if she got upset. She was a bit moody and aggressive after the interview.
Maybe was freaked out by panther's accident.
Because Fash didn't mention her at all
Why does shadow always get the "awesome" before his name....favoritism going on a from fash
That's probably why he got replaced by Jeremy Guscott
@@davidfearis7335 Fash left 2 years after Shadow was sacked. I think Fash left because of the Match Fixing allegations (whether he was sacked or not I don't know).
You sound insecure and jealous
like all white commentators do in every sport you mean lmao
Because he was awesome lol
27:31-27:35 I went from ecstasy to agony
49:45 LMAO
Falcon is so fecking worthless. Only surpassed by Zodiac in terms of worthlessness.
