Somewhere in the unknown cosmos there is the soul of a caveman who fought off 8 saber tooths, 5 cave bears, 3 mammoths and an enemy tribe... and he's pissed he wasn't on this list.
Musashi pulling out a dual sword style out of his ass is one the most anime things anyone could've done. "I'll break through my limits right here right now!"
Miyamoto Musashi, discussed in this video, became a legend in swordsmanship during his lifetime - 1584 -1645. At nearly the same time (their lifetimes overlapped by 44 years) there lived an equally legendary swordsman at the other end of the great Eurasian landmass. He dwelt in France from 1611-1673 and was a captain in the Mousquetaires du Roi; his name was Charles de Batz de Castelmore. You know him as le Compte D'Artagnan.
The first Gurkha trained as paratroopers were told by their British trainers that they would be jumping from airplanes at 850 feet. They seemed dismayed at this and requested through their translator that this altitude be reduced to 500 feet. "Ridiculous", said the British trainer, there would be no time for your parachute to open. When this was translated to them, they seemed much relieved and their response was translated back. "Ah, parachutes! Yes sir, very good."
I have played soccer/futbol with two young men from NEPAL. Both were recycled out of the Gurkhas (didn’t make the cut) but let me tell you. Those two who were “dropouts” were such strong and athletic men and they always were sad that they didn’t make it. It amazes me because if they didn’t make it and they were such beasts.. what does it take to actually make it haha
Surprised no mention of hells hounds,us marines,,battle of Belleau wood,,idk ,,but do know Britain was a super power very true,but that was long ago,USA has shown ,proof time n time again globally to be the world's greatest success at reaching out and taking care of business in the enemies own back yard,,no other military thus far has come close to that ability ,,meaning in such a short amount of time to engage ,over power targets,but a very good video thanks much luck to you, Sincerely, Sgt James
Well maybe it's ike the Seals if you put on a graph each recruit from worst physical and mental performance to the best you would see that rarely anybody in the top 20% make it. Bc they aren't looking for the greatest athletes. If they were they would just go to an ironman or CrossFit gym. They are looking for a cog in a unit. It's more about being able to mentally adapt, process, and endure. So maybe that's what happened with your Sherpas.They possibly could have been the biggest badasses there and still ended up on your soccer field.
Alongside Gandhi in a similar vein one cannot help but mention Desmond Doss the US Marine Medic who never once fired a shot or killed anyone while still saving over 90 men on Hacksaw Ridge all through the night by his own admission saying "Lord please help me get one more."
"NO! it has to be MY Bible..."...and by God, those fighting men had enuff respect for him to risk their lives and actually go back up in harms way to do it, find HIS Bible, and they found it ..mad respect all around..the guy even brought down a coupla' wounded Japanese ...just wow...i'm not crying right now, it's just some sand in my eyes...
I knownow Gandhi was very smart and thinking person but he lost to Quaid-e-azam in all categories other than being famous and it's sad to say but he was killed by his own country India after Pakistan was set free
*Its crazy how humans went from able to kill someone without hesitation to not able to take a joke* Edit: let me state this rq, I’m not saying that this is a bad change, I’m only saying it’s a crazy one considering how humans used to act, plus it’s a joke
That’s what happens when you let morals (you know, the thing people pretend they have until they can justify abandoning them) get in the way of progress.
@@indigo6981 nah i would not wanna be living in the 300s lol end up having your town attacked and your family murdered, or the ruler deciding to kill you for almost no reason
Desmond Doss deserves to be on this list, the man went into the battle of Okinawa UNARMED, after everyone else had fled and retreated because the Japanese had them outnumbered, he single handedly went into no man’s land without a single weapon to save himself with, and saved 75 wounded soldiers that were left for dead in the middle of no man’s land, a true warrior, there’s a movie about him ‘Hacksaw Ridge’ great film
The movie Hacksaw Ridge was atrocious and offensively bad to every veteran, but yes, Doss was a badass. You want to talk about warriors who don't commit any acts of violence, Doss is the guy to look at, not a politician like Gandhi.
@@aidanmccrae9329 no. It takes a brave person with a set of morals that he’s willing to stick to no matter what. But it does not take a warrior to not fight
@@no1fibersplicer525 no, a brave person would have died going up there to rescue the amount of men he did, he had instinct and was smart enough and strong enough to get through it alone, a true warrior doesn’t need to use a weapon, or fight, or kill, you can’t compare what he did to being just ‘brave’ it takes a lot more than bravery to do what he did
Leonidas didn't "carry" anything,he died early in the 3rd day if i recall correctly,and the Spartans get all the credit for the work of a thousand something Greeks who stayed till their last breath.If anything Themistocles and Miltiades carried against the Persians with their feats at Marathon and Salamis.

In my country Malawi (Africa) There is a famous story of a man named Mtingwi (pronunciation: mtee-ngweee) During raids and arrival of the whites some survivors on the coasts escaped inland deep into Africa. He was known to be a large man that helped save his people. Among him and a few warriors they were able to take down soldiers while raiding the villages that they passed and when they reached malawi he fought off the Ngoni tribe. Besting over 10 armed men in combat while he was not armed himself. Apparently one night a king from a distant village had his soldiers guide a lion to his hat so it could kill him. But the next day he came to the kings land holding the lions head. Asking him to Try again. The reason why the king had attempted this was because mtingwi had killed his son in combat. Who was actually considered larger in size than Mtingwi. Apparently he always refused to rule. When asked to do so. Claimed that ruling people required a different form of strength. He just preferred fighting To help clarify: Malawi is a landlocked country deep in Africa. And it was formed due to the arrival of many survivors that escaped the coasts. Through out its early beginnings it was a battle zone among different tribes all fighting to claim the land. It's a small country with over 20 different tribes spread out across it due to this reason.

"Winning all your battles is not supreme excellence, supreme excellence comes from breaking the enemy resistance without fighting." - Sun Tzu, The art of war
Napoleon and later Eisenhower both said words similar to "I would rather a lucky general than a good general" with Eisenhower going on to say " they win battles". Great tactics, strategies, overwhelming strength and battle plans can all be undone by mother nature and luck. Mustafa Kemal's determination and command and his personal rallying of the retreating Turkish troops at Gallipoli won the day for the Turks and he would go on to become Turkey's greatest modern leader. Yet luck played a part, a bullet or piece of shrapnel was stopped by his pocket watch in his left chest pocket preventing perhaps his death but certainly preventing him being incapacitated and thus able to personally rally the troops.
Miyamoto Musashi was born in the year 1584. and died June 13, 1645. Battle of Agincourt happened on October 25, 1415. English did not "copy" the strategy from Go Rin no Sho (The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi). Still, a good video Sir! Keep it up!
Musashi is clearly the inspiration for Masamoto in Young Samurai. Very distinct parallels, including the late, and the early story. Not only that, but in the book, Masamoto made a fighting style known as the Two Heavens, using both Japanese swords. And eventually went to start a school for that technique. In fact, Masamoto even defeated one of his opponents with a Bokken.

The best warriors to have ever lived on this earth likely died on an unnamed and forgotten battlefield sometime thousands of years ago, and were intentionally buried in the annals of history by the conquerers who proceeded them. . These are but the best we KNOW of definitively. The truly best to ever walk this earth will never be known.
@@chesterfieldthe3rd929 Yeah, well, but those men won't ever create a big empire that can protect its people and ensure wealth and progress. All great empires were created through blood and fighting. No tyrants will care about your ideal and they will kill you eventually cuz nobody with a white knight in shining armor attitude will survive for long. If you don't give people reason to fear you (the consequences of attacking you), then you will have to deal with one foe after another until you die or become a monster yourself. You don't need to be a tyrant yourself, but every great warrior in history, and even some of the great heroes, have blood on their hands.
@@chesterfieldthe3rd929 Jesus’ death resulted in far, far worse treatment of his followers than had he just tried to live and let live, because instead of just thinking “Oh look at these Christians and their wacky belief system,” people began thinking “These are followers of Christ; They MUST die before they spread their beliefs like a cancer.” . Besides, I’d like to see words stop a nuclear missile flying toward your homeland at 2,000 mph. I’d like to see kindness toward others prevent hundreds of miles from becoming radioactive. A true man never harms for the sake of harm, but understands when words no longer work and the Defense of his people and his home becomes necessary. Reality isn’t a fairy tale. For every 1 truly good Man, there are 200 Million bad men.
@@themadburner Most of the men ((and quite a few women)) in my family have served since WW2, so I don’t understand why you feel it necessary to try and berate someone over the internet. Modern technology doesn’t instantly make someone an exceptional warrior, it just means they know how to point and click a trigger. Given the fact that Humans ((Homo Sapiens)) have been evolving for more than 1 Million Years, it’s absolutely safe to assume that what we’d consider the “Truly Greatest Warriors” in history already lived and died a long time ago. Are you seriously trying to say that a 17 year old boy in Vietnam with an M16 shooting blindly into the jungle is on Par with Alexander the Great, a 20 year old who managed to bring nearly the entire known world under his single banner within 5 years?
"The White Death" should definitely be on this list. Simo "Simuna" Häyhä (17 December 1905 - 1 April 2002) was a Finnish military sniper. He is believed to have killed over 500 men during the 1939-40 Winter War, the highest number of sniper kills in any major war. He used a Finnish-produced M/28-30 rifle, a variant of the Mosin-Nagant rifle, and a Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun. His unit's captain Antti Rantamaa credited him with 259 confirmed kills by sniper rifle and an equal number of kills by submachine gun during the Winter War. Later in his book, Rantamaa credited Häyhä with 542 sniper kills. Häyhä never talked about it publicly but estimated in his private war-time diary that he shot around 500.
I am so glad you included the Gurkha’s … not only are they the most ferocious and brutal group warriors I could even imagine. They are also the kindest and most polite, loving culture of people you could literally ever meet

Overhyped. Nothing but British propaganda to make these guys seem like immortal warriors. All it is was a group of soldiers put in a position. It's like calling the Canadian with the longest confirmed killed the "deadliest sniper", he was put in that position. Even Chris Kyle and Carlos Hathcock said they were only put in the position, it's the only reason why they had so many confirmed kill. Not to say these guys aren't good, but it's the British just creating mythical stories during war time. They're known for it with their SAS, MI-5 and 6, WWII airplanes, etc. They went on and on that the Spitfire was the best WWII plane when the Mustang and BF109 were clearly more superior. British hype.

*Kukri They would use them when they found troops in the black of night. They would count the number of eyelets on the sleeping soldiers boots to determine who they fought for and if it was the enemy, they would cut their laces from toe to shin as a form of psychological warfare. Amazing soldiers.
@@saramshsenpai2832 in the UK, because of the Gurkha regiment, we say Kukri. Khukuri is still a translation from the language sound, and is not literal. Both are correct.
Before arrows or throwing spears it was slings with small stones travelling with enough speed to hit you almost like a bullet but enough skill it was aimed at the head when used in hunting and at a long range in warfare.
I'm really disappointed with your lack of research on this Thoughty. Gladiator matches were rarely ever fought to the death and the majority of casualties were in fact purely accidental. Gladiators had to be trained, clothed, equipped, fed, and housed which made them an expensive investment. No one would be willing to put the effort and money into sponsoring gladiators if half of them would die at the end of every day.
Also just like WWE many times the most popular gladiator what is vaulted and promoted to become the champion because as you said fights to the death were extremely rare. It was real fighting many times but it was also partially fake wrestling. Most times they would bring in gladiators from other cities to lose and then those same gladiators we travel to their cities where they would lose so both gladiator schools gained honor in their areas. When you see the stories about these gladiators who had hundreds of victories you have to think that tons of them were staged, especially once they became famous. And half the stories you read these incredibly famous ones were already fighting for 20+ years and still whipping on the 25-year-olds who are much more athletic and in their prime. We love to romanticize the gladiators, but I truly believe they were 50% UFC fighter 50% WWE star. They were primarily to keep the public off of the politicians and the upper class and most the killing we have associated with them is simply executing prisoners. As you said they were ridiculously expensive and because a lot of the fights were fake they could keep doing it for 20 years so if you were to pay for a fight to the death you would have to pay exorbitant amounts of money.
Chad Mesiroff I think what you said is true because it was mentioned that he refused to accept the Rudis to gain his freedom 4 times probably in exchange of having a good life as a gladiator. I guess his master had enought of him and decided to get rid of him by being killed in the arena because he is too expensive to maintain and his master has already gained so much from him. His master has also probably won the bets when he got killed.
You also have Léo Major, after just leaving the hospital and still injured, he liberated a whole city by himself from the German army during WW2. He litteraly is the real life Rambo.
Umm Rambo was based on MGS Benavidez code name Tango Mike Mike. Dude was a green beret and step on a landmine and was shot multiple times and yet despite that he charge the enemy lines all by himself just to save his fellow brothers in Vietnam War.
Lowkey there is a big untapped market for open world ultrarealistic game like gta that takes place in feudal japan or china. Sleeping Dogs was such a cool and interesting game.
This was incredible. The first man that you talked about he had thrown back a handful of grenades and the last one went off in his hand then mangled it. So he pulls out his blade sticks it in the ground and declares that not a single one of them would pass his knife.
No because this video was more interested in virtue signalling by including a questionable mongolian parable about a woman who likely could not have done half of what the story claims, and fucking Ghandi who never physically fought anyone.
Ah yes, Khutulun's wedding competition, the precursor to Wrestlemania. Also Miyamoto Musashi was a cheeky duelist. Not only was he an excellent warrior, he also would stack the deck in his favor every time. Gotta read the Book of Five Rings, it's great.
Not really, he just threw people of guard/confused foes, and he wasn't scared to kill somebody with the first blow. I don't think fighting swords with a boat oar is really stacking things in his favour, that was a genius badass move (if its true).
Doesn't matter what time period it was.You have to have nerves of steel.Till you are engaged with an enemy that is trying to kill you and you are trying to do the same.Keeping a level head is a huge part of it.
Sun Tzu said The greatest warrior ever is not someone who fights 100 battles and wins a hundred times but an individual who can stop a war without an ounce of bloodshed
Nah, that is just a great tactician. Warriors fight. Without a fight, you can't prove yourself to be a great warrior. You may as well claim that the best cook isn't the one who cooks the tastiest food, but the one who works at the most expensive restaurant. Stuff like that.
he dodged by putting his leg forward and sliding to the west thus turning him backwards while hitting the mans head using his turning as further power to fuel the hit on his head after doing so he hit his ribs with such force that was not able to be predicted due to the lack of further details.
IDK man, I really like Vagabonds take on Musashi's upbringing and the truth of Sasaki having been an imposter all his life.

Khalid ibn al-Walid RA was a dueller, warrior, and general. He even defeated the Prophet Muhammad SAW once, before embracing Islam. After embracing Islam, he never lost any battle nor any duel. He was humble. Even accepted when he was demoted into common soldier instead of a general and did his duty well. However, the appointed general still consulted him due to his superior military skill. He hoped to die in battle but instead died on his bed due to old age.

Well since I haven't seen anyone commenting on it I'm gonna be the one to say that Princess Khutulun is underrated and soooooo badass. My favourite summary of her life is just "She said anyone who beat her could marry her, and anyone who couldn't owed her 100 horses. She died unmarried, in possession of 10,000 horses". The most impressive part is that it's not even like her opponents weren't trying, horses were held in especially high regard during Mongolia's reign and the bond between a warrior and their horse was considered borderline sacred. To rip 1 horse from a man's hands would be much, but to ask for 100 was insane. Every single man that challenged her would have went in completely expecting to win and absolutely ready do they everything they could to make sure that happened, and yet despite all that Khutulun still manages to hold a record greater than any athlete that has existed to this day. Musashi, Flamma, and the others were all great let's not get that twisted. But Khutulun as far as I know has the greatest win : loss ratio of anyone that has existed, and that is simply incredible. Let's please put some respect on that name
It's like the story of a woman who's vagina was so big she was willing to marry whomever made her scream, one man finally succeeded with only 4 inches 😳 the secret was that the 4 inches were in thickness 😂🤣😂

How is Subutai not on this list. He conquered from Korea to the Golden Horde to Russia to Poland and Hungary. And then for good measure he possessed Hitler and reconquered half of Poland and Russia. (He had a curse on his tomb that said "If you open this tomb you will unleash a conquerer even worse than I" the Soviets opened it the day before Hitler invaded."
Another fun fact... Christians of Hungary and Russia were part of the attack on Bagdad. The entire city was slaughtered, Muhammad's bloodline was ended, everyone gone. Except the minority Christian population out of respect for their European partners. This wasn't Subutai but those Christians were there bc of his earlier campaigns.
13:10 actually Musashi carved his oar to be a tiny bit longer than the nodachi, that’s how he won. One of the reasons the samurai stance has them holding their swords aloft toward the sky is to disguise the length of said sword giving them an advantage.
Correct sir. I too read of his carving being just a bit lnger than his opponent's sword. Not only was he a phenomenal swordsman, his mental game was next level.
@@rogerjohnson2562 actually no, a decent bokken is pretty much the same mass as an equivalent metal sword of the same length, since it needs much more girth to remain rigid and strong enough to be used effectively.

i think leonidas and the 300 spartans were the most disciplined people on planet earth, never seeing their family’s for 35-40 years, going through 2 decades of training starting at the age of 12 and not breaking character until the battle begins it’s so awesome except for the family part just looking at a spartan is intimidating af and fought 250,000 persian soldiers in 1 battle and even came close to winning thats godlike given strength and discipline right there
They never came close to winning this is hollywood King xerces try to reason with leonidas and gave them à few day to surender and they didnt so he killed them all
I disagree, and i'd like to point out some major errors here, first one being that leonidas never had 300 men, i serioisly don't know where they got that number from, but sadly it looks like people don't bother reading and actually researching history, because leonidas had no less than 7000 men, and they were (obvioisly) defeated by the persians In my opinion the greatest, most disciplined warriors in history were Khalid ibn al waleed (aka The Sword Of God) and his army of brave, fearless warriors and mujahideen. Khalid marched out with his army of brave and mighty warriors, and faced the two greatest empires of his time, he did what the romans could never do, he conquered persia and crippled the mighty romans, he was such a great commander, and his fearless army was so great that even when the Romans and the persians decided to unite and team up against him at the battle of Firaz, where he was heavily outnumbered, and his army was disadvantaged because they didn't have heavy armor that protected their entire bodies, all the odds were against him, and he marched out towards them with 15k mujahideen while the romans and persians had 300k The odds were all against him, and unlike leonidas, The Sword Of God won. The roman and persian armies lost 100k men to Khalid's 15k warriors, while The Sword Of God's army only suffered 200 casualties. Now that, is what i call Greatness and Discipline
@@suliemanthemagnificent5865 the story is true. The Spartans went agains the Persian army ruled by xerxes and he sent the majority of his soilders to retreat except for himself and his royal guard of 300 soilders where they all died and the Spartans never surrendered to xerxes and his army. You said it yourself, the Spartans had an army of 7000 but the persians had anywhere from 70,000 to 300,000, the Spartans held their ground against that large of an army for 2 whole days before they sent the 6700 home. Yes, the Spartans lost but they never surrendered and that Is true Spartan discipline. They fought until death.

Miyamoto Musashi, discussed in this video, became a legend in swordsmanship during his lifetime - 1584 -1645. At nearly the same time (their lifetimes overlapped by 44 years) there lived an equally legendary swordsman at the other end of the great Eurasian landmass. He dwelt in France from 1611-1673 and was a captain in the Mousquetaires du Roi; his name was Charles de Batz de Castelmore. You know him as le Compte D'Artagnan.
is this D'Artagnan the inspiration for the main protagonist in Alexander Dumas's The Three Musketeers?

The first Gurkha trained as paratroopers were told by their British trainers that they would be jumping from airplanes at 850 feet. They seemed dismayed at this and requested through their translator that this altitude be reduced to 500 feet. "Ridiculous", said the British trainer, there would be no time for your parachute to open. When this was translated to them, they seemed much relieved and their response was translated back. "Ah, parachutes! Yes sir, very good."
Don't talk about their bravery as whole eternity won't be enough to describe their complete glory
I have played soccer/futbol with two young men from NEPAL. Both were recycled out of the Gurkhas (didn’t make the cut) but let me tell you. Those two who were “dropouts” were such strong and athletic men and they always were sad that they didn’t make it. It amazes me because if they didn’t make it and they were such beasts.. what does it take to actually make it haha
Surprised no mention of hells hounds,us marines,,battle of Belleau wood,,idk ,,but do know Britain was a super power very true,but that was long ago,USA has shown ,proof time n time again globally to be the world's greatest success at reaching out and taking care of business in the enemies own back yard,,no other military thus far has come close to that ability ,,meaning in such a short amount of time to engage ,over power targets,but a very good video thanks much luck to you,

Well maybe it's ike the Seals if you put on a graph each recruit from worst physical and mental performance to the best you would see that rarely anybody in the top 20% make it. Bc they aren't looking for the greatest athletes. If they were they would just go to an ironman or CrossFit gym. They are looking for a cog in a unit. It's more about being able to mentally adapt, process, and endure.
So maybe that's what happened with your Sherpas.They possibly could have been the biggest badasses there and still ended up on your soccer field.
So they were retarded?

In my country Malawi (Africa) There is a famous story of a man named Mtingwi (pronunciation: mtee-ngweee)
During raids and arrival of the whites some survivors on the coasts escaped inland deep into Africa. He was known to be a large man that helped save his people. Among him and a few warriors they were able to take down soldiers while raiding the villages that they passed and when they reached malawi he fought off the Ngoni tribe. Besting over 10 armed men in combat while he was not armed himself. Apparently one night a king from a distant village had his soldiers guide a lion to his hat so it could kill him. But the next day he came to the kings land holding the lions head. Asking him to Try again.
The reason why the king had attempted this was because mtingwi had killed his son in combat. Who was actually considered larger in size than Mtingwi.
Apparently he always refused to rule. When asked to do so. Claimed that ruling people required a different form of strength. He just preferred fighting
To help clarify: Malawi is a landlocked country deep in Africa. And it was formed due to the arrival of many survivors that escaped the coasts. Through out its early beginnings it was a battle zone among different tribes all fighting to claim the land.
It's a small country with over 20 different tribes spread out across it due to this reason.

"Winning all your battles is not supreme excellence, supreme excellence comes from breaking the enemy resistance without fighting." - Sun Tzu, The art of war
Napoleon and later Eisenhower both said words similar to "I would rather a lucky general than a good general" with Eisenhower going on to say " they win battles". Great tactics, strategies, overwhelming strength and battle plans can all be undone by mother nature and luck.
Mustafa Kemal's determination and command and his personal rallying of the retreating Turkish troops at Gallipoli won the day for the Turks and he would go on to become Turkey's greatest modern leader. Yet luck played a part, a bullet or piece of shrapnel was stopped by his pocket watch in his left chest pocket preventing perhaps his death but certainly preventing him being incapacitated and thus able to personally rally the troops.
Sun tzu dumb af, pummel your enemy to within an inch of their life and then make them a vassal. Ez claps
@Tarik Hodzic another mark of a good leader is being able to improvise on the spot, since no plan survives contact with the enemy
That's the one I missed in the video. Maybe there's no records of him other than his art of war.
Well China has certainly taken that to heart
Miyamoto Musashi was born in the year 1584. and died June 13, 1645. Battle of Agincourt happened on October 25, 1415. English did not "copy" the strategy from Go Rin no Sho (The Book of Five Rings by Miyamoto Musashi). Still, a good video Sir! Keep it up!

Musashi is clearly the inspiration for Masamoto in Young Samurai. Very distinct parallels, including the late, and the early story. Not only that, but in the book, Masamoto made a fighting style known as the Two Heavens, using both Japanese swords. And eventually went to start a school for that technique. In fact, Masamoto even defeated one of his opponents with a Bokken.
Reminded me of the young samurai books as well. Allso because of the five rings.
And King Monkey is ripped off in anime constantly.
Musashi is the inspiration for countless anime, manga and videogame characters!
Masamoto’s school is named after the two handed sword technique

Simo "Simuna" Häyhä (17 December 1905 - 1 April 2002) was a Finnish military sniper. He is believed to have killed over 500 men during the 1939-40 Winter War, the highest number of sniper kills in any major war. He used a Finnish-produced M/28-30 rifle, a variant of the Mosin-Nagant rifle, and a Suomi KP/-31 submachine gun. His unit's captain Antti Rantamaa credited him with 259 confirmed kills by sniper rifle and an equal number of kills by submachine gun during the Winter War. Later in his book, Rantamaa credited Häyhä with 542 sniper kills. Häyhä never talked about it publicly but estimated in his private war-time diary that he shot around 500.

I'm really disappointed with your lack of research on this Thoughty. Gladiator matches were rarely ever fought to the death and the majority of casualties were in fact purely accidental. Gladiators had to be trained, clothed, equipped, fed, and housed which made them an expensive investment. No one would be willing to put the effort and money into sponsoring gladiators if half of them would die at the end of every day.
Also just like WWE many times the most popular gladiator what is vaulted and promoted to become the champion because as you said fights to the death were extremely rare. It was real fighting many times but it was also partially fake wrestling. Most times they would bring in gladiators from other cities to lose and then those same gladiators we travel to their cities where they would lose so both gladiator schools gained honor in their areas.
When you see the stories about these gladiators who had hundreds of victories you have to think that tons of them were staged, especially once they became famous. And half the stories you read these incredibly famous ones were already fighting for 20+ years and still whipping on the 25-year-olds who are much more athletic and in their prime.
We love to romanticize the gladiators, but I truly believe they were 50% UFC fighter 50% WWE star. They were primarily to keep the public off of the politicians and the upper class and most the killing we have associated with them is simply executing prisoners. As you said they were ridiculously expensive and because a lot of the fights were fake they could keep doing it for 20 years so if you were to pay for a fight to the death you would have to pay exorbitant amounts of money.
Chad Mesiroff I think what you said is true because it was mentioned that he refused to accept the Rudis to gain his freedom 4 times probably
in exchange of having a good life as a gladiator. I guess his master had enought of him and decided to get rid of him by being killed in the arena because he is too expensive to maintain and his master has already gained so much from him. His master has also probably won the bets when he got killed.
Not to mention that the Nepalese Gurkhas used a kukri, not a kurki.

@@astranix0198 but we don't fight to death anymore.
Not really, he just threw people of guard/confused foes, and he wasn't scared to kill somebody with the first blow.
I don't think fighting swords with a boat oar is really stacking things in his favour, that was a genius badass move (if its true).
He also didn't wash, so he was on guard everytime, something his foes weren't prepared to do.
Just added it to my cart after this video. I'd heard his story several times before, but never thought to read his book.

Miyamoto musashi is one of my favourite people in history, his fight against sasaki is one of the coolest stories hands down
he dodged by putting his leg forward and sliding to the west thus turning him backwards while hitting the mans head using his turning as further power to fuel the hit on his head after doing so he hit his ribs with such force that was not able to be predicted due to the lack of further details.
IDK man, I really like Vagabonds take on Musashi's upbringing and the truth of Sasaki having been an imposter all his life. Makes for a greater tale than the "truth" which was Musashi pretty much being everyones main villan and Sasaki being the hero of the people. History tends to make us see the good guys poorly for a time.

Khalid ibn al-Walid RA was a dueller, warrior, and general. He even defeated the Prophet Muhammad SAW once, before embracing Islam. After embracing Islam, he never lost any battle nor any duel. He was humble. Even accepted when he was demoted into common soldier instead of a general and did his duty well. However, the appointed general still consulted him due to his superior military skill. He hoped to die in battle but instead died on his bed due to old age.

Well since I haven't seen anyone commenting on it I'm gonna be the one to say that Princess Khutulun is underrated and soooooo badass. My favourite summary of her life is just "She said anyone who beat her could marry her, and anyone who couldn't owed her 100 horses. She died unmarried, in possession of 10,000 horses".
The most impressive part is that it's not even like her opponents weren't trying, horses were held in especially high regard during Mongolia's reign and the bond between a warrior and their horse was considered borderline sacred. To rip 1 horse from a man's hands would be much, but to ask for 100 was insane. Every single man that challenged her would have went in completely expecting to win and absolutely ready do they everything they could to make sure that happened, and yet despite all that Khutulun still manages to hold a record greater than any athlete that has existed to this day.
Musashi, Flamma, and the others were all great let's not get that twisted. But Khutulun as far as I know has the greatest win : loss ratio of anyone that has existed, and that is simply incredible. Let's please put some respect on that name
It's like the story of a woman who's vagina was so big she was willing to marry whomever made her scream, one man finally succeeded with only 4 inches 😳 the secret was that the 4 inches were in thickness 😂🤣😂
They need to make a movie about her
Pretty sure mulan is based off her in some way

A vegetarian warrior? Now i believe in Popeye the sailorman. The strongest man in history with a can of spinach.
Depends who you talk to but one hypothesis is they ate a lot of barley to pack on fat, allowing them to survive deeper cuts.
I somehow doubt that they were voluntarily vegetarian. Meat was a bit of a luxury food, and they were slaves.
It wasn’t a choice to be vegetarian eat what u got and don’t die we’re the only two rules back then
it wasn't spinach, it was weed 🤦🏻♂️

How is Subutai not on this list. He conquered from Korea to the Golden Horde to Russia to Poland and Hungary. And then for good measure he possessed Hitler and reconquered half of Poland and Russia. (He had a curse on his tomb that said "If you open this tomb you will unleash a conquerer even worse than I" the Soviets opened it the day before Hitler invaded."
Another fun fact... Christians of Hungary and Russia were part of the attack on Bagdad. The entire city was slaughtered, Muhammad's bloodline was ended, everyone gone. Except the minority Christian population out of respect for their European partners. This wasn't Subutai but those Christians were there bc of his earlier campaigns.
nice. I'm gonna curse my local Arbys when I die
Nahh, that was Timerlane, not Subutai
13:10 actually Musashi carved his oar to be a tiny bit longer than the nodachi, that’s how he won. One of the reasons the samurai stance has them holding their swords aloft toward the sky is to disguise the length of said sword giving them an advantage.
Correct sir. I too read of his carving being just a bit lnger than his opponent's sword. Not only was he a phenomenal swordsman, his mental game was next level.

Damn those gurka stories sounds like COD characters god damn
A unit of gurka's were attached to an airborne unit and got a brief they were going to jump at 5000 feet. The gurka command said that was to high and asked to jump lower twice before the airborne commander realized they thought they were being asked to jump without parachutes.
in the first Gurka story where they were injured by a grenade the man had to cycle the bolt and fire with one hand as the other was too injured
I’ve served jointly with quite a few Armies of the Allied Nations and one thing we unanimously agree on is- don’t fuck with the Gurkhas. Those dudes are badass.
There were 3 gorkha who was assigned as scout for a night during the world war
Japanese decided to suprise the gurkha with 200soldiers
2 of gurkha soldier were killed and one was left alive
Japanese soldiers fired grenades the gurkha threw back 2 grenade and the third exploded in his arm then he took his khukuri and stabbed it to the floor and said none of u will pass this checkpoint he then battle 200soldiers with his left arm and won the battle

i think leonidas and the 300 spartans were the most disciplined people on planet earth, never seeing their family’s for 35-40 years, going through 2 decades of training starting at the age of 12 and not breaking character until the battle begins it’s so awesome except for the family part just looking at a spartan is intimidating af and fought 250,000 persian soldiers in 1 battle and even came close to winning thats godlike given strength and discipline right there
Don't forget getting raped by old men to undergo military service
They never came close to winning this is hollywood
King xerces try to reason with leonidas and gave them à few day to surender and they didnt so he killed them all
I disagree, and i'd like to point out some major errors here, first one being that leonidas never had 300 men, i serioisly don't know where they got that number from, but sadly it looks like people don't bother reading and actually researching history, because leonidas had no less than 7000 men, and they were (obvioisly) defeated by the persians
In my opinion the greatest, most disciplined warriors in history were Khalid ibn al waleed (aka The Sword Of God) and his army of brave, fearless warriors and mujahideen.
Khalid marched out with his army of brave and mighty warriors, and faced the two greatest empires of his time, he did what the romans could never do, he conquered persia and crippled the mighty romans, he was such a great commander, and his fearless army was so great that even when the Romans and the persians decided to unite and team up against him at the battle of Firaz, where he was heavily outnumbered, and his army was disadvantaged because they didn't have heavy armor that protected their entire bodies, all the odds were against him, and he marched out towards them with 15k mujahideen while the romans and persians had 300k
The odds were all against him, and unlike leonidas, The Sword Of God won.
The roman and persian armies lost 100k men to Khalid's 15k warriors, while The Sword Of God's army only suffered 200 casualties.
Now that, is what i call Greatness and Discipline
@@suliemanthemagnificent5865 the story is true. The Spartans went agains the Persian army ruled by xerxes and he sent the majority of his soilders to retreat except for himself and his royal guard of 300 soilders where they all died and the Spartans never surrendered to xerxes and his army. You said it yourself, the Spartans had an army of 7000 but the persians had anywhere from 70,000 to 300,000, the Spartans held their ground against that large of an army for 2 whole days before they sent the 6700 home.
