    what the name of the discovery channel show on martial arts?

    "If you find the right balance between desperation and fear you can make people believe anything"

    "Is enlightenment even possible? Or, did I drive by it like a missed exit?"

    It's simpler than you think.

    I could be completely wrong"

    Human Weapons?
    SevenStar: It's hilarious seeing people's reactions when they see a big, black dude with a sword walking toward them.

    Masterkiller: Especially when they're at the ATM.

    WTF? How did we go from the White Haired Devil strangling and beating guys to death in a teahouse, to Mr Miyagi and Jhoon Rhee?

    Fight Science was a show that was on The National Geographic Channel. I regret that I missed it.

    Human Weapon was made for History Channel. I had no problems with that show. It is available on DVD now.

    Xtreme Martial Arts was an hour and a half psuedo-documentary highlighting the sport on Discovery Channel. Interesting I thought it was. They used some science and CG rendering to simulate what happens to our body when we are struck when and when we are attacking. But it's a few years old. The DVD is available.

    Discovery Channel had another recent show called Fight Quest but no wires...none that I saw anyway. Enjoyed that series as well. Can't wait for the next season.

    Final Fu most of us know from MTV2.

    This is what I can think of at the moment.

    The Fight Science thread.

    The Human Weapon thread was by MK, so it was deleted. However I noticed that I could link to it form the Fight Quest thread. That may just be me since I've got admin privileges. I'd be interested to know if you all can see that too.

    We don't have an Xtreme Martial Arts thread. Perhaps some one should start one.

    The Final Fu e-zine article (which links to the thread).

    Thanks Gene. You went one step further than I did.

    I will revive the Fight Science thread once the second season starts.
