My house didn't have tv (strict Christian parents) so I'd see some tv once a week at my Grandad's. Seeing Wolf being a lovable baddie and getting the crowd booing was so exciting you have no idea haha
To an extent, your parents were right!!!! In the third series of UK Gladiators, Gladiator zodiac would sometimes wear safety gear for the gauntlet event which depicted the highly unChristian eye of horus on it. The first series had a Gladiator named phoenix, a non-Christian mythological bird which symbolised resurrection to those who revered it, and given how the Holy Spirit is also often depicted as a bird, and is a part of the Godhead along with Jesus Christ, who rose from the dead, it could be said that the Holy Spirit symbolised resurrection through its association with God and Jesus, and given how the Bible says our God is a jealous God, it stands to reason that he probably wouldn't like people revering non-Christian mythological birds which are considered to symbolise resurrection!! Long time Gladiator Mike Lewis also had the name saracen, which in times gone by, was a term used by Christians to refer to any adherents of non-Christian religions!!! Plus, there's all the scantily clad female Gladiators who inspired lust in many people, including me. I sometimes still watch the original American show on youtube, as that mostly seemed more innocent and wholesome, but even that show sometimes contained things which made me distance myself from it, to a degree.
I'm surprised Rhino's knee injury during the International Gladiators series wasn't mentioned! He was on Pyramid, and the contender landed badly on Rhino's leg. Along with Panther's accident, that's the one I remember most vividly. Zodiac was also concussed during her first series, after a clash of heads on Powerball.
I'd like to see the action series 'Interceptor' get a reboot, long as they bring back the infamous backpacks that both contestants had to wear and of course the laser projector which the titular Interceptor character wore on his left sleeve, with those 'Zapp' sounds it used to make in post production, but this time make it a lady who is the hunt for the contestants participating in the show 🙂
I remember Panther's and it was horrifying. Even her contender was immediately shaken by what had happened. Sad thing about Nightshade's is she was arguably the best female gladiator to ever appear on the show. Following illness and injury she wasn't the same and ended up retiring after her first ever loss on dual. Looking back it's hard to believe that Tilt was ever a game. You can't look at that and believe it's safe.
I do remember watching Nightshade falling from the tilt table and being carried off on a stretcher when I was a kid. Me and my brother liked Nightshade and were sad that she had got hurt
Really solid leg program by Giant. Rest a minute between sets of 8 to 15 reps and this leg workout should last one hour including warmup and proper stretch. This man has an excellent functional physique. Thanks Giant for this
I recently heard that Panther and Erika Rogerson have spoken from time to time since the taping of the episode with the accident on Tilt. Erika showed good sportsmanship by going to Panther's side immediately after in happened.
I've been watching the new Gladiators series, watched the Sky reboot and original series was on when i was a kid but didn't always watch it. I hope Sabre makes it back OK.
Is for these injuries, that I’m amazed the show has made a come back. I know they have taken out some of the events, but there is still a lot of étions injury potential in this show
I'd love to see The Krypton Factor come back. They tried but they got it all wrong. They made it too flashy. I wouldn't mind Treasure Hunt as well, although I'm not if they could have a helicopter running all over the place.
It's crazy that without the internet, all this went under the radar when i was growing up! (probably in the papers!) Jet = number 1 for the show back then! 🙌
You bet, strike it lucky/rich Michael barrymores my kind of music/ people , krypton factor ,noels house party, ice warriors, fun house, crystal maze that's my top 10
Gladiators is NOT a game for little boys & girls, everyone knows the risk of injuries when they play these Gladiators Events This is why they only allow the very fittest to take part on Gladiators DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RECREATE ANYTHING YOU SEE ON GLADIATORS, EVERYONE WHO TAKES PART ON THE SHOW IS HIGHLY TRAINED & ARE GIVEN THE APPROPRIATE SAFETY EQUIPMENT FOR EACH & EVERY GAME THEY PLAY
Good list i wondered if scorpios injury (during the sky reboot) would be on the list also something from the 90's i would like remade it has to be ROBOT WARS
Sabre actually tore her hamstring on the Edge in episode 9 she was trying to prize Bronte away from the Edge but because Bronte is as heavy she hurt herself by accident.
I miss some of these events in the new version, but looking out what happened to the gladiators, it was definitely best they didn't bring them back - Panther's looked sickening.
There was a programme on channel 5 where they had people training as Roman gladiators and then fighting with blunt weapons. It was just one episode. It turns out gladiator fighting is a lot more boring than in the movie. It's like how the Rocky movies make boxing look a lot better than real boxing.
2:54 You're actually wrong on that, Matt Morsia AKA Legend ended up with an injury on the show. So basically on his channel he announced he had to undergo surgery bc he sustained an avulsion fracture due to his finger getting pushed back with so much force that his finger rotated idk how many degrees but a bit of bone in his finger broke away. He was still able to compete in the show, but he had to wear a bandage on his finger in a lot of the scenes
Three Honourable/Dishonourable Mentions go to Jenny Pacey A.K.A. Enigma, Daniel Singh A.K.A. Warrior & Classic Gladiator Nikki Diamond A.K.A. Scorpio, All Three happening in the Sky One Revival!
I was so sad wen jet went out of it I feel she made the right decision to leave the show after nearly breaking her neck falling off the pyramid I still and will always love jet Diane youldale
Forgot about some of these to be fair. Injuries happen in sport and Gladiators has always been an extension of that but all of these Gladiators(other than maybe Amazon) deserved better than what they got.
Why call Sharron Davies a controversial political character, she's just a common sense speaker who says what 99% of everyone else thinks. How is that controversial? 🤷
didn't know that happened to Amazon. to quote the 70s tv shows i'm sure she thinks are great and happily anti-woke. "Oh well. What a shame. Nevermind."
None of them there all shite, NO MORE reboots its just recycled shite! open all hours case a point without Ronny barker it's TRYING to be funny, all hours.

One word for you
Wolf man wouldn't have been the same without him
I’d love to see a top 10 on more physical gameshows! Like “Top 10 Total Wipeout Moments” or “Top 10 Hole In The Wall Fails”
Watchmojo need to make a top 20 greatest GLADIATORS Moments in History
Panther's horrific fall off Tilt is still one of the most horrific things i've ever watched. She was lucky not to have broken her neck.
I had to turn away, I couldnt watch it!
I remember the Panther injury so clearly. It was genuinely horrific.
Panther's was brutal and both she and NightShade should have been in the top two spots. Also, RIP to Bernadette Hunt (Falcon). 😢

IK right.
You need to do a video on the contender injuries that happened on Gladiators, because there were quite a few notable ones.
I was at the Sharron Davies injury recording. Took ages to get her off the pyramid and out of the arena.
Scrapheap Challenge, Robot Wars (properly) and Noel's House Party
The sound effects during the narratives were spot on!
To be honest I find the sound effects a bit annoying and unnecessary.
The sword sound for Sabre was inspired at first I did actually think she was named after the sabre sword (or is that saber... dunno)
I'd like to see the action series 'Interceptor' get a reboot, long as they bring back the infamous backpacks that both contestants had to wear and of course the laser projector which the titular Interceptor character wore on his left sleeve, with those 'Zapp' sounds it used to make in post production, but this time make it a lady who is the hunt for the contestants participating in the show 🙂
Or maybe have a Selection of Interceptors for the reboot, like they have a selection of Chasers for The Chase
And try to see if the person who portrayed original Interceptor character is still alive and offer him a chance to host.
And allow the use of Drones as well.
I loved all the Gladiators shows
TOP 10 UK GAMESHOWS by Popularity would be my suggestion

Wolf wasn't always mean he showed his good side
You should cover top 10 contestant injuries for gladiators or top 10 gladiator moments including records broken, wolf etc
Scrap heap challenge should get a reboot
I do remember watching Nightshade falling from the tilt table and being carried off on a stretcher when I was a kid. Me and my brother liked Nightshade and were sad that she had got hurt
Really solid leg program by Giant. Rest a minute between sets of 8 to 15 reps and this leg workout should last one hour including warmup and proper stretch. This man has an excellent functional physique. Thanks Giant for this
Jet's Pyramid accident could have got her killed and left her crippled for the rest of her life.
Both killed and crippled for the rest of her life, wow
There was Scorpio in the legends strike back. She was taking part in the wall and she fractured her foot
I recently heard that Panther and Erika Rogerson have spoken from time to time since the taping of the episode with the accident on Tilt. Erika showed good sportsmanship by going to Panther's side immediately after in happened.
You can see why these events were banned
Yep
I've been watching the new Gladiators series, watched the Sky reboot and original series was on when i was a kid but didn't always watch it. I hope Sabre makes it back OK.

It's crazy that without the internet, all this went under the radar when i was growing up! (probably in the papers!)
Jet = number 1 for the show back then! 🙌
Tilt should never have got approved for development.
I would love to see a reboot of the vicar of dibley.
I vaguely remember the Nightshade one, I must have been about 5? Was scared for her
The UK version looks a lot cooler than the US version and I grew up on the US version...
I Love to a see a top 20 if Greatest Moments in GLADIATORS History
You bet, strike it lucky/rich Michael barrymores my kind of music/ people , krypton factor ,noels house party, ice warriors, fun house, crystal maze that's my top 10
ITV should had look after the them a lot better. Its sad about Jet.
Gladiators is NOT a game for little boys & girls, everyone knows the risk of injuries when they play these Gladiators Events
This is why they only allow the very fittest to take part on Gladiators
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RECREATE ANYTHING YOU SEE ON GLADIATORS, EVERYONE WHO TAKES PART ON THE SHOW IS HIGHLY TRAINED & ARE GIVEN THE APPROPRIATE SAFETY EQUIPMENT FOR EACH & EVERY GAME THEY PLAY
Good list i wondered if scorpios injury (during the sky reboot) would be on the list also something from the 90's i would like remade it has to be ROBOT WARS
8:00 Could see her swearing.
Sabre actually tore her hamstring on the Edge in episode 9 she was trying to prize Bronte away from the Edge but because Bronte is as heavy she hurt herself by accident.
Yeah, I can confirm that
I miss some of these events in the new version, but looking out what happened to the gladiators, it was definitely best they didn't bring them back - Panther's looked sickening.
Wait the 2024 lady is Tiny 😂😂😂 compared to the 90s ladys
I Would Love To Team Up With Jet And Wolf Because They Are My Favourite Gladiators
There was a programme on channel 5 where they had people training as Roman gladiators and then fighting with blunt weapons. It was just one episode. It turns out gladiator fighting is a lot more boring than in the movie. It's like how the Rocky movies make boxing look a lot better than real boxing.
Dislocated my kneecap…now I’ve got 3 screws holding it in place 👍🏻
I have met Jet many years ago
Ice warriors would be good or scavengers (tv programme with John Leslie
There needs to be contender injuries.
Gatta love jet
You should cover the original American Gladiators
2:54 You're actually wrong on that, Matt Morsia AKA Legend ended up with an injury on the show. So basically on his channel he announced he had to undergo surgery bc he sustained an avulsion fracture due to his finger getting pushed back with so much force that his finger rotated idk how many degrees but a bit of bone in his finger broke away.

Fun fact the gladiators were the main inspiration for the house robots
Three Honourable/Dishonourable Mentions go to Jenny Pacey A.K.A. Enigma, Daniel Singh A.K.A. Warrior & Classic Gladiator Nikki Diamond A.K.A. Scorpio, All Three happening in the Sky One Revival!
no more reboots. just continuations, which Gladiators has been.
So that’s why they stopped some of these events
this was a really depressing watch
How is 7 worse than 10?
You left out warrior's injury
No, it was at 2:02 they showed Warrior's injury
Number 1 and 2 needs to be swapped.
I was so sad wen jet went out of it I feel she made the right decision to leave the show after nearly breaking her neck falling off the pyramid I still and will always love jet Diane youldale
Forgot about some of these to be fair. Injuries happen in sport and Gladiators has always been an extension of that but all of these Gladiators(other than maybe Amazon) deserved better than what they got.
Not to make light of the situation, but...is it weird that i find all the female gladiator's attractive?
Wolf was a bad guy irl too
"Brutal". Yeah not so much. How is watchmojo still a thing lol
Why call Sharron Davies a controversial political character, she's just a common sense speaker who says what 99% of everyone else thinks. How is that controversial? 🤷
“99%” - says the clueless imbecile
@earlofdrumer1851 well said Amazon
Because it's absolutely not 99%, you're just in an echo chamber.
99%? Is that why the vast majority of people you actually meet in real life completely support trans people? Hatred and bigotry are not common sense.
Brutal lol okay
didn't know that happened to Amazon.
to quote the 70s tv shows i'm sure she thinks are great and happily anti-woke.
"Oh well. What a shame. Nevermind."
SORRY BUT I DON'T AGREE
Don’t agree with what?
None of them there all shite, NO MORE reboots its just recycled shite! open all hours case a point without Ronny barker it's TRYING to be funny, all hours.
Goes to show how fragile British bones are 😂
