WHO... IS... DEADLIEST?!
To find out, our world class fighters are testing 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 the death to decide who is... THE DEADLIEST WARRIOR!
Here at the fight club, we've gathered a team of scientists, doctors, and military historians, to test the weapons of two of the most legendary warriors of the wild west.

DR. DORIAN: I'm really excited for this battle. We have the most famous Native American going up against one of America's most famous outlaws. I'm also excited for the weapons. We have Billy's shotgun, and we also have Sitting Bull's traditional weaponry. This one will be close.
NARRATOR: Wielding the weapons of Sitting Bull is Moses Brings Plenty, a Lakota weapons expert and tribesmen, who also represented Crazy horse previously on the show, and Conner Young, a Sitting Bull historian.
And representing Billy the Kid is Aaron Skylar and Johnny Hernendaz, experts on Billy the Kid.
These 2 warriors would begin the battle at long range. Billy the Kid's favorite weapon was...
1873 WINCHESTER RIFLE
Length: 40 inches
Ammo: .44 Win
Range: 200 yards
Mag: 10 rounds
AARON: This was Billy's favorite weapon. It had 10 rounds, and shot the same round as his pistol. This was known as the gun that won the west.
NARRATOR: Sitting Bull's long range weapon of choice is the 1860 Henry Repeating Rifle.
1860 HENRY REPEATING RIFLE
Length: 43 inches
Ammo: .44 Win
Range: 200 yards
Mag: 15 rounds
NARRATOR: To test these 2 weapons, the 2 warriors will have to move through a wild west town square, with buildings and barrels for cover, where there will be 8 targets, 2 moving, 2 pop-up. The person who does the most damage with the least time wins.
Up 1st is Johnny with the 1873 Winchester.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Johnny Walks into the square, and runs behind a barrel. He then takes aim at the 1st target, and fire 3 rounds at it. He aims at the 2nd one, and fires a few rounds at it. Another target pops up, and Johnny fires 3 rounds at it. Johnny then reloads his weapon, moves to new cover, and starts to fire again. He then shoots at the 2 moving targets. Johnny then fires at the 7th target, but then the last target pops up, and Johnny has to reload. Finally, he fires 3 rounds at the last target.
DR. DORIAN: Your 1st shot is a kill. In fact, the 1st 3 targets you killed.
NARRATOR: Johnny scored 6 kills, and 2 wounds.
Up next is Moses with the Henry.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Moses runs into to the square, hides behind a barrel, and fires a few rounds into the 1st target. He then fires a couple rounds into the 2nd and 3rd targets. 1 of the targets pops up and fires at it. Moses then fires at 1 of the moving targets. Moses then reloads. He then finishes off the rest of the targets.
DR. DORIAN: Your shots are much better placed, and have a couple head-shots.
NARRATOR: Moses scored 7 kills, and 1 mortal wound.
DESMOULIN: Johnny, you killed 6 targets in 1 minute, 42 seconds, with an average reload time of 15.3 seconds. Moses, you killed 7 targets in 1 minute, 15 seconds, with an average reload time of 21.4 seconds.
( Guys go to determine the edge)
DESMOULIN: My edge goes to the Henry, because it's a longer, more accurate rifle, with more rounds.
DR. DORIAN: I prefer the Winchester. Although it has less rounds, it fires the same rounds as the pistol, it's easier to operate.
GIEGER: I'm going with Goefrey on this one. The Henry performed better in the test. Edge: Sitting Bull.
NARRATOR: For long range weapons, the edge goes to Sitting Bull for the 1860 Henry Repeating Rife.
EDGE: SITTING BULL
NARRATOR: Now, we will test the 2 warrior's special weapons.
Sitting Bull's special weapon is the Bow and Arrow.
BOW AND ARROW
Long range
Bow: 4 feet
Arrows: 24 inches
Wood, Feathers, and Iron
NARRATOR: And Billy the Kid strikes back with...
SHOTGUN:
Range: 50 yards
Ammo: 12 Gauge
2 rounds
Double-Barreled
NARRATOR: To test the Shotgun, Aaron will have to shot 3 targets, 2 of them with 1 round, and the 3rd one with 2 rounds, from 25 feet away.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Aaron fires 1 round into each of the 1st 2 dummies. He then reloads and fires both rounds at once into the 3rd target.
DR. DORIAN: The 1st target you shot, you shot its chest. This would sever the aorta, lungs, and heart. The 2nd shot you blew his head off. The last target you ripped him in half with your 2 shots.
NARRATOR: Now, to test the bow and arrow, Conner will shot 10 arrows at a ballistics gel torso from 50 feet away.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Conner fires his 1st arrow into the target's chest. He then fires a few arrows into its neck and head. He finishes by firing more shots into it's chest and gut.
DR. DORIAN: Most of your arrows are lethal, but a few are not. It looks like 6 of your arrows are kills, with hits to the heart, brain, curated, and lungs. The last 4 are non-lethal shots to the shoulders and gut.
( Guys go to determine the edge)
DR. DORIAN: This one is obvious. The shotgun has more power, and quicker follow up shots. Plus, if you see someone get their head blown off by this thing, your not gonna stick around. Edge: Shotgun.
NARRATOR: For special weapons, the edge goes to Billy the Kid for the shotgun.
EDGE: BILLY THE KID
NARRATOR: Next, we will test the pistols of these 2 warriors.
For Billy the Kid, the pistol of choice was...
COLT FRONTIER SIX-SHOOTER
Length: 11inches
Range: 45 yards
Caliber: .44
Revolver
JOHNNY: This was one of the most famous revolvers of Billy's time. It shot the same round as the 73 Winchester, and was quick on the draw.
NARRATOR: And Sitting Bull retaliates with the 1873 Colt.
1873 COLT
Length: 13 inches
Range: 50 yards
Caliber: .45
Revolver
NARRATOR: To test these 2 weapons, the 2 teams will have 6 shots to kill 5 targets, 2 of which have cover, and 1 is moving, at 30 feet away. The 2 warriors will also be on the clock.
Up 1st is Moses with the Colt 1873.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Moses fires a shot at the 1st target, and hits it in the chest. He fires another shot at the moving target, but misses. He fires again, and hits it in the gut. He then moves on to the last 3 targets.
DR. DORIAN: The 1st target you hit in the aorta, this is a kill. The moving target you hit in the kidney. This is not an immediate kill, but he needs to get help eventually. The covered target is unscathed. The other covered target you hit right in the head, this is also a kill. The last shot you hit this guy in the shoulder, but did not kill him.
NARRATOR: Up next is Johnny with the Colt Frontier.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Johnny takes aim and fires at the 1st target, hitting it in the chest. He his the moving target on the 1st try in the gut, and fires at the 2 covered targets, hitting them both. He then fires his last 2 shots into the last target.
DR. DORIAN: The 1st shot you hit him in the lung, killing him. The 2nd target you hit in the stomach, also a kill. The 1st covered target you hit in the head, and the 2nd in the shoulder. The last target you have 2 shots in the heart and head, he's dead too.
DESMOULIN: Moses, you killed 2 out of 5 of the targets, with 1 miss in 16.4 seconds. Johnny, you killed 4 out of 5 of the targets, with no misses in 21.5 seconds.
( Guys go to determine the edge)
DR. DORIAN: This one goes to the Frontier. It wasn't as powerful or as fast as the 1873, but it was more accurate, had more kills, and because it was shorter, is quicker on the draw.
DESMOULIN: I agree. Edge: Billy the Kid.
NARRATOR: For mid range weapons, the edge goes to Billy the Kid for the Colt Frontier.
EDGE: BILLY THE KID
NARRATOR: When the fight got up close and personal, the 2 warriors unsheathed their close range weapons.
For Sitting Bull, the close range weapon of choice is the Tomahawk.
TOMAHAWK
Short Range
14 – 20 inches
2-2.5 lbs
Wood and Steel Blade
NARRATOR: And for Billy the Kid, the Close range weapon of choice is the Bowie Knife.
BOWIE KNIFE
Short Range
9 inch Blade
1.5 lbs
Steel Blade
NARRATOR: To test the 2 warrior's close range weapons, they will have to attack a pig with their weapon, and do as muck damage as they can in 15 seconds.
Up 1st is Aaron with the Bowie Knife.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Aaron stabs the pig 3 times in the gut, then slashes at the chest a couple times.
DR. DORIAN: These stabs are kills. They all puncture the lower lung, aorta and liver. The stabs break through the ribs and hit the heart and aorta, also kills.
NARRATOR: Next to test their weapon is Moses with the tomahawk.
DESMOULIN: 3, 2, 1, GO!
Moses slashes his tomahawk into the pig's spinal column, breaking it. He the then swings at the pig's gut a few times, and almost cuts it in half.
DR. DORIAN: This 1st slash at the back is a kill. It breaks the back, and cut's deep into it. This will leave someone defenseless, but isn't an instant kill. The slashes you have here are very lethal, cutting through the aorta, lungs, and liver.
( Guys go to determine the edge)
DESMOULIN: In my mind, this one goes to the bowie knife, it's smaller, and doesn't require a wind up. Plus, you have the capability to stab and slash.
DR. DROIAN: No. This one obviously goes to the tomahawk. It's got more range, and does more damage.
GIEGER: I'm gonna go with the Doc on this one. I would rather have the tomahawk then the Bowie Knife any day of the week. Edge: Sitting Bull.
NARRATOR: For short range, the edge goes to Sitting Bull for the tomahawk.
EDGE: SITTING BULL
NARRATOR: Now with the testing complete, we will enter the data into the battle simulation, developed by Slitherine Studios, to simulate a battle to the death between these 2 warriors. To make sure victory isn't snagged by a single lucky blow, the battle will be simulated 1,000 times. Who will win this battle of the Wild West, Sitting Bull, or Billy the Kid?
For close range, Sitting Bull's tomahawk cut down Billy's Bowie Knife.
For mid-range weapons, Billy's Colt Frontier out shot Sitting Bull's Colt 1873.
For long range, Sitting Bull's 1860 Henry gunned down Billy's 1873 Winchester.
And for special weapons, Billy's shotgun destroyed Sitting Bull's bow and arrow.
Max his the button, and the simulation begins.
The battle takes place in a wild west town square. On the porch of 1 of the buildings, Billy is singing for a few civilians, surrounded by his 4 men. When he finishes his piece, the civilians clap, but Billy sees something across the square. Walking into the square is Sitting Bull and 4 of his men.
BILLY: 5 SITTING BULL: 5
Other civilians, including the one watching Billy quickly run out of the square and spread the word to leave. Billy's men get up and arm themselves. The 2 groups stare each other down when the 2 squads simultaneously raise their weapons and start firing at each other. After a lot of rounds are fired, 1 of Bull's archers gets shot, and so does 1 of Billy's men.
BILLY: 4 SITTING BULL: 4
1 of Billy's men ducks into the bar, and the other 3 run out of the square. Bull then sends 1 of his men to go into a 2 story building as a sniper, and head toward the bar. He tells his archer to keep watch outside, and hands him his henry, before drawing his revolver and heading inside with his other man. Inside the bar, Bull's man looks around, but only sees civilian's hiding under the tables. Suddenly, Billy's man pops out behind the bar and fires 2 shots into Bull's man.
BILLY: 4 SITTING BULL: 3
Sitting Bull immediately fires a few rounds at the man with his revolver.
BILLY: 3 SITTING BULL: 3
Meanwhile, Billy and his other 2 accomplices sneak around the other end of the square and go into the building where Bull's sniper is. Billy sees the man, and tells 1 of his men to go up and kill him. 1 of his men volunteers, and sneaks up behind Bull's sniper, Bowie Knife drawn. He then proceeds to stab him in the back, killing him. He then pulls out his own gun and waits for Billy's signal.
BILLY: 3 SITTING BULL: 2
Meanwhile, Bull walks out of the bar and joins his last man. Unaware that their sniper has been killed, the 2 walk into the square and signal for him to join them. Suddenly, Billy and his men open fire on the 2 Lakotas, but they quickly take cover and start returning fire. Sitting Bull gets a lucky shot and hits Billy's sniper, causing him to fall out of the window.
BILLY: 2 SITTING BULL: 2
The 2 groups then disperse, and Bull's archer runs into a building. Billy sends his man to go check the building. Billy's accomplice checks the building, but doesn't find anything. He walks out and yells at Billy that the building is all clear, when Bull's archer comes up behind him and shots him in the back.
BILLY: 1 SITTING BULL: 2
Billy, mad over his man's death, fires a couple shots from his revolver at the archer, killing him.
BILLY: 1 SITTING BULL: 1
Billy then walks out to find Bull, when he sees him across the square. The 2 stare each other other down, then Sitting Bull runs toward a 2 story building with a wrap around 2 story porch. The 2 warriors fire a few rounds at each other, then Bull disappears into the house. Billy quickly follows. A few seconds later, Bull makes it to the 2nd floor porch, and turns to the right. A couple seconds later, Billy comes up the stairs and goes to the left. The 2 warriors round the corner of the back of the house at the same time and pull their triggers. "Click Click". The 2 warriors realize that their guns are empty, and Bull runs back to the front of the house, pulling out his tomahawk. The 2 warriors meet each other at the front of the building, their bladed weapons drawn. The 2 start to edge closer to each other, when civilians start to come back into the square. Sitting Bull does a downwards chop, but Billy grabs his wrist, then stabs at Bull's stomach, but Bull grabs his wrist. Bull then brings Billy in closer, and knees up into his groin. Billy lets go, and Bull shoves him to the ground. The Lakota then gets on top of Billy, and attempts the downward chop again. The same result happens, and the 2 warriors are at odds again. Bull then pushes Billy's hand away, and punches him in the face, giving him a bloody nose. Bull then gets up and backs away. Billy gets up and, in blind range, charges at Bull. The Lakota then sidesteps and cuts down on Billy's arm, causing him to drop the knife. Sitting Bull then grabs Billy by the shirt, shoves him into the railing, and they both fall to the ground. Bull then swings down, bringing his tomahawk down on to Billy's face.
BILLY: 0 STTING BULL: 1
All the civilians run away screaming, and Sitting Bull lets out a Lakota war cry, raising his tomahawk into the air.
WINNER: Sitting Bull
SITTING BULL: 532
1860 Henry Repeating Rifle: 184
Colt 1873: 132
Bow and Arrow: 119
Tomahawk: 97
BILLY THE KID: 468
1873 Winchester Rifle: 188
Colt Frontier Six-Shooter: 134
Shotgun: 113
Bowie Knife: 33
NARRATOR: In the battle of wild west fighters, Sitting Bull came out on top, with his Henry and 1873 dominating the battle.
GIEGER: In this battle, Sitting Bull won 53.2 percent of the time, whereas Billy the Kid only won out 46.8 percent of the time.
DESMOULIN: I was surprised at the result of this matchup. After the Crazy Horse vs. Poncho Villa match-up, I didn't think that Sitting Bull was gonna win. There was a reason that Sitting Bull was killed by over 40 men, and Billy was only killed by 1. Bull was a general, and he was a fighter. Billy was an outlaw. I'm not surprised by this result.
THE END.
NEXT TIME ON DEADLIEST WARRIOR, THE VIETNAM AGE U.S.A MARINES GOES UP AGAINST THE BRITISH LAND FORCES FALKLAND ISLANDS BRIGADE.
