WHO IS DEADLIEST?
To find out, we've assembled a team of world class fighters to test history's most lethal weapons. Using 21st century science, we'll see what happens when two warriors go toe to toe.
No rules. No safety. No mercy. It's a duel to the death to decide who is…THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR!
Here in our elite fight club we have gathered doctors, medical scientists and weapons experts to test out the lethal arsenals wielded by each of our combatants to determine who would win a fight between two warriors from ancient Europe who never met in battle.

''Today we have a battle between two massive warriors from ancient Europe. On one end you have the Scottish Highlander, the feared titans who fought the English in the name of independence under William Wallace and Robert the Bruce. The other end you have the fearsome Viking. The battle crazed warriors of the north who pillaged their way through Europe. These guys used weapons that required lots of strength and greatly emphasized their great sizes.'' Mack said
''I think the Viking wins this match, he is actually trained in battle in some aspects more than the Highlander and knows how to use all his weapons whereas the highlander mostly took weapons from dead English soldiers.'' Geoff stared off
''The Highlander is better motivated to fight. I don't think the viking will do anything that will hinder the Highlander and the Highlander is just going to see the viking as just some annoying vermin.'' Dorian countered
The fearsome Scottish titan charged his English enemies with a powerful bone crushing arsenal of weapons.
Short Range: War Hammer
Mid-Range: Greatsword
Long Range: English Longbow
Special: Bollock Dagger
In turn the savage raider pillaged with a nasty arsenal he used to mutilate his enemies.
Short Range: Viking Longsword
Mid-Range: Dane Axe
Long Range: Boar Spear
Special: Skeggox
Both warriors used brutal close range weapons to slash and batter their enemies to death. Since we've already tested the longsword before the team now looks over the preferred melee weapon of the Highlander.
''Looking at the war hammer and the longsword, it's designed to get through armor whether it be chainmail or steel plate, however I'm tempted to side with the longsword because it has more blade to it with double edge capabilities and it won't get stuck in the Highlander's armor.'' Geoff said
''I'll agree and give this one to the Viking.'' Dorian added
''Viking longsword.'' Mack finished
In short range weapons the edge goes to the Viking for the Viking longsword.
For mid-range weapons our warriors used two totally different tools to slaughter their opponents. The team now reviews testing of both weapons in action and come to a decision after a brief discussion.
''The great sword has more blade to it and and if it hits the wooden shaft of the axe, the Viking is screwed. Edge great sword.'' Geoff said
In mid-range weapons the edge goes to the Highlander for the greatsword.
For long ran...
''Hold it there narrator, we've seen a weapons test like this before and I think you get the jist of what weapons gets the edge don't you?'' Geoff asked the narrator.
''Yeah even though the Highlander isn't skilled with his bow, he still can outshoot the viking easily.'' Dorian added
Yeah yeah, in another obvious edge the Highlander takes it with the English longbow.
XXXXXXX
We now conclude the weapon comparison and bring out the favored sidearms of our warriors. Boys?
''The bollock dagger is no different from the dirk we inaccurately used in the Highlander's original episode and the skeggox is no different from the Dane axe besides the axe head and being a shorter weapon. Comparing the two weapons I don't really see anything that can give either one an edge over the other. What do you guys think?'' Geoff said
''I can say the same thing, a dagger vs. an axe? I think I'll go with the dagger since more blade on it offers more options. So I'll guess the Bollock dagger takes this one.'' Dorian said
''I'm iffy on it as well. But as what Dorian as said I think the dagger takes this one for more blade.'' Mack added
In special weapons, the edge goes to the Highlander for the bollock dagger
XXXXXXX
''Let's review their x-factors.'' Mack said
''For ferocity the Highlander has a 93 to the Viking's 89.''
''For physicality the Viking has a 91 to the Highlander's 87.''
''Endurance is even between the two with both scoring an 85 each since they both had high amounts of energy whenever they fought their enemies.''
''Intimidation goes to the Viking with a 95 to the Highlander's 92.''
''Next is training and the Viking takes a narrow edge with an 81 to the Highlander's 77.''
''Last is killer instinct and both have a 100 each. One guy killed every single English knight that he saw and the other killed everyone he came across.
We've reviewed the weapon's data and have looked over the x-factors. Now we will find out who will win between two brutal and savage warriors.
''In the end only one warrior will stand, let's see who it is.''

It is a chilly and foggy evening in the Scottish Highlands. A lone viking disembarks off his ship near the coast. He gathers his weapons and begins wondering off into this new land to see what he and his fellow warriors can pillage from it.
Nearby on a hill a lone Highlander is seen on a leisurely walk. He has caught wind of an army of savage warriors from Scandinavia making their way towards Scotland. Fearing these warriors may very well conquer his homeland he decides to head out and find any of these warriors from the north and stop them in their tracks.
He stabs his greatsword into the ground and continues his walk when he spots a figure through the fog below the hill he is on. Due to the height of this stranger he assumes it's a fellow Highlander, however he holds his position and draws his longbow just in case.
The figure comes close and upon recognizing the person as a foreign warrior he immediately lets loose an arrow and it soars through the air.
It impacts on the Viking's helmet snapping in two. Pissed off at the sudden attack the Viking looks at the direction from which the arrow came and spots another large man atop a medium sized hill wielding a large bow.
Sensing a fight he takes his boar spears and begins to mount a charge with his spears raised high. Seeing what his opponent is doing the Highlander readies another arrow and takes aim. As the Viking draws a couple ten's of meters away up the hill both warriors let loose their projectiles. The Highlander's arrow barely misses the Viking's head where one of the Viking's spears finds it's way into the Highlander's arm knocking him over sideways.
He quickly recovers from his injury and yanks the spear out and proceeds to draw his war hammer. Just as he turns around the Viking had already begun a downward swing with his Dane axe.
Reacting just in the nick of time the Highlander blocks it with the pointed end of his hammer an both warriors are locked in a struggle of dominance. The length of the Viking's axe gives him more leverage and he butts the blunt end of the axe into the Scotsman's chest knocking back a few feet.
Taking the opportunity the Viking swings his axe sideways and manages to land a blow onto the Highlander's side. The Highlander's chainmail protects him but he grunts in pain feeling the power of the blow and retaliates with a downward swing of the his hammer's blunt end.
The hammer lands a blow onto the raider's helmet and he holds his head in a daze. Rearing back for another blow the Highlander brings the war hammer into a sideways swing and connects with the Viking's side. The spike piercing into his chainmail and cutting into his body.
Howling in pain the Viking grabs the Highlander's arm and another on the war hammer's handle and with all his strength disarms the Highlander before kicking him away.
Taking his wooden shield off his back the Viking then back hands the Highlander with enough force to knock him backwards onto the ground. Drawing his longsword the Viking quickly rushes forward and goes to bring it down onto the Highlander. Rolling out the way the Scottish warrior runs over to where his greatsword is planted into the ground.
Drawing the blade out of the ground Master sword style, he then swings a powerful 180 degrees horizontal swing. Not expecting the heavy looking weapon to move so fast the Viking raises his shield up to intercept the blow but the force of the greatsword's swing cuts and splinters the wooden shield in half.
Surprised at the sudden destruction of his shield, the Viking stares wide-eyed at his broken shield, seeing his opponent still in shock the Highlander brings the greatsword into another swing.
The blade connects with the Viking's helmet knocking it off and dazing him. Another opportunity created the Highlander swings again and hits the Viking's back hard. The chainmail protects him but feeling the force of the swing go into his body the raider doubles over in pain.
The Highlander goes to finish the fight but the Viking recovers in time and raises his longsword in a last ditch effort to block the massive sword. The two warriors again are locked in another struggle and this time it would be in the Highlander's favor thanks to his sword's greater length.
He forces the blade downward in a sawing motion and the sounds of steel grinding on steel echoes throughout the area. Not wanting to risk losing a hand in the process the Viking gathers the strength to shove the Scotsman away and follows up with a horizontal swing.
The Highlander swings his blade as well and both blades connect in a clang of steel. The Viking's longsword being knocked from his hand and sent flying a few meters away.
Laughing at his foe the Highlander thrusts the greatsword in an attempt to skewer the raider but the Viking jumps to the side and draws his skeggox. He brings the bearded axe down onto the Highlander's arm and manages to cut into the flesh and getting to the bone causing just enough pain for the Highlander to release his massive sword.
Clutching his fresh wound the Highlander, now extremely pissed off draws his dagger and both warriors charge each other. They both tackle each other full force but neither gaining the upper hand.
They both back up a few feet and give each other one last look of anger, both now wanting to kill the other more than ever. With one last battle cry from both warriors they charge each other one last time.
They meet in another full force tackle and struggle once more. The Highlander grabs the Viking's long hair and yanks his head sideways and goes to bring the dagger onto his exposed neck, reacting quickly the Viking swings his skeggox and manages to connect with the Highlander's wounded arm from earlier.
Screaming at the sudden pain the Highlander's lets go just as the Viking swings again and completely severs the arm mid radius. Staring at shock at his bleeding stump the Viking follows up with another swing and the skeggox buries itself into the Highlander's neck.
The Scotsman can only jerk violently and gasp wide-eyed as he helplessly watches the Viking let go of the skeggox. The Viking runs over to grab his Dane axe off the ground nearby
Slowly walking over to the dying Highlander, the Viking forces him onto his knees and walks over to get behind him.
Taking a deep breath, he bears a gleefully but wicked smile on his face before giving another battle cry and raises his Dane axe high above his head and in one swift move, brings it down onto the Scottish warrior's skull.
The axe nearly cleaves his head vertically in half, the proud Scotsman never to rise again.
Kicking the corpse over with his axe still inside, the axe rips through the cleaved head spilling more blood and brain matter. Proud of his work the Viking spits at the corpse before walking away with a smile.

Following a brutal and gory battle between two fearsome and savage warriors. The Viking seizes victory. His better close range weapon combined with his superior training allowed him to slice his way through the Highlander. The Highlander wasn't an easy opponent, his greatsword cutting the Viking down multiple times and being the deadliest weapon overall with 215 kills all on it's own.
''This was definitely a tough battle for both sides. The Viking just managed to come out on top because he was trained a bit better in regards to combat and he was way better trained to use his weapons. The Highlander wasn't able to use all weapons in his arsenal to the same degree as the Viking and his non-professional skill with the longbow led to his downfall.'' Geoff explained
(The Viking waits ashore as he sees more boats carrying his fellow raiders in. They disembark on the beach and raise their weapons high ready to pillage this new land. Strapped to the Viking's side is the fallen Highlander's greatsword, a new weapon he will enjoy drawing blood with. ''Looks like Valhalla isn't ready for me yet.'' He thinks to himself.)
