    Default National Geographic Fightscience show

    Commercial:

    http://www9.nationalgeographic.com/c...eoPreview.html

    Info:

    -Airs in a two days

    Stuff taken from the National Geo website:

    -In Jiu Jitsu, a fighter applies 600 pounds between the skull and spinal cord on a dummy opponent—enough to kill or paralyze a man.
    -In Kung Fu, a strike measured 40 feet per second, four times faster than a strike by a snake.
    -A Muay Thai knee strike generates the impact of a (56.33 kph) car crash.
    -A TKD spinning back kick generated more than 1,500 pounds of force.


    Looks cool

    damn ...

    is this going to be on Satellite only or PPV?
    can someone record and upload it?

    I remember Discovery doing something like this last year, but this one looks to be even better.

    The National Geographic channel is supposed to be on Shaw Cable I think (channel 116? is that a PPV channel?).

    I don't have cable...I'm just hoping it'll be on BT lol.

    This looks fuckin awesome, from both a cool fighting perspective and also to see what kind of numbers these fighters generate. Looks sweet, I think I may have to prescribe to that!
