WHO...IS...DEADLIEST!
To find out, we assembled world-class fighters to test some of the most deadliest weapons in history. Using 21st century science, we find out what happens when two of the greatest fictional warriors go toe-to-toe. No rules, no safety, no mercy. It's a duel to the death to decide who is..
THE DEADLIEST FICTIONAL WARRIOR.
In the Fight Club, we have set up a high tech battle zone. We have gathered a scientists, a doctor, a computer programmer, and combat experts. All to simulate a death match against two of the most deadliest wild west heroes in video game history.
First up, Colton White, the frontiersmen who battled a corrupt rail road baron to not only get revenge but to free the west from his tyranny.

shows a Caucasian man with black hair and five day stubble and green eyes. He's wearing a black tank top, combat pants and boot. He is setting up a gel dummy.)
Biomedical scientist Matthew Roth will use 21st century equipment to test the lethal weapon of the two fighters.
"This is the match I've been waiting for, to test the weapons of two of the old west's greatest heroes"
(Shows a African American man with short black hair and brown eyes. He is wearing a black jump suit and a white lab coat over it. He is looking at a gunshot wound on a gel dummy.)
ER doctor Ronald Mack will see if the weapons will kill.
"Today will see revolver, shotguns, long rifles, and melee weapons. It gonna be fun to see what these weapons can do." Dr. Ronald said.
(Shows a skinny white man with shaggy blonde hair and light blue eyes. He's wearing a green shirt and blue jeans. He types some data into a computer.)
Computer Whiz Jesse Jacobs will input the data in a battle simulation program to see who is the deadliest fictional warrior will be.
"This is going to be a very close match. These men are very similar to each other." Jesse said.
(The next scene shows a white man with brown hair and eyes. He's wearing a brown shirt, blue jeans, brown cowboy boot and brown cowboy hat. He picks up a long rifle and aims it at the screen.)
Representing Colton White is Dave Hickerson, Hickerson is a world-class marksman with wild west weapons and a authority on the life of Colton White.
"Colt was the very definition of the Wild West, he gonna take Marston and put a bullet in his head." Hickerson said with a smile on his face.
Born in 1861 to a white male doctor and a native american woman, his family was slaughtered by Tom Magruder. He was taken in by Ned White, who was also betrayed and shot by Magruder. For 19 years he was raised to live off the land and shoot. However, a assassin posing as a preacher attacked a boat that Ned and Colt were on and in the ensuing battle, Ned was killed. Colt then went on quest to find his adoptive fathers killers and the truth, gaining and losing friends. At the end Magruder and Colt fought at the lost golden city of Quivira, which Colton won.
"Colton managed to escape and that's when he became a legend." Hickerson said.
But our John Marston expert is confident that the former outlaw can beat back Colton.
(Shows a white woman with a black ponytail and brown eyes. Shes wearing a blue collared shirt, blue jeans, black cowboy boots and a black cowboy hat with a small feather strapped to the side of it. She picks up a revolver and aims it, then spins it a little and holsters it.)
Representing John Marston is Miranda Marston, she is the last living descendant of the former outlaw and expert in John's weapons and history.
"My ancestor was a man who tried to turn his back on crime, Colton became a criminal and John is gonna take him out."
Born in 1873 to a drunken Scottish immigrant father and a prostituting mother, both died before John turned eight. John along with future wife Abigail ran away from an orphanage and fell in with a gang lead by Dutch van der Linde, where he and others lead a Robin Hood like life of stealing from the rich and giving to the poor. However, in 1906, John was seriously wounded in a bank robbery and was left for dead by his gang. John then left his life of crime to settle down as a rancher with his wife and son. That would last until 1911 when two federal agents named Edgar Ross and Archer Fordham kidnapped his family and forced him to hunt down his former gang.
"Ultimately he did what they asked, and they betrayed and killed him." Miranda said "But not before John Marston name became legend."
But how would John Marston, the former outlaw who only returned to fighting to protect his family stack up against Colton White, a outdoors man who turned into the reluctant outlaw to kill a corrupt rail road barron.
"My edges goes to Marston, he has slightly better weapons and was a all-around threat." Dr. Ronald said.
"Colton White was a master marksman and I think that will give the edge against Marston." Matthew said.
Both warriors come in with a wild western cache of weapons
Colton White weapons:
Twin Colt Peacemakers
Double Barrel Shotgun
Buffalo Rifle
Tomahawk
John Marston weapons:
Double-Action Revolver
Pump-Action Shotgun
Winchester Repeater
Bowie Knife
First up, Short Range.
Colton White shoots in with:
The Twin Colt Peacemakers, the guns that were a favorite in the wild west.
(Shows Colton killing two of McGruders men with two bullets, one from each gun.)
Single Action
Weight: 2 pounds
Length: 13 inches
Cartridge: .45 Long Colt
Clip Size: 12 rounds
In the firing range, the group walks up to Hickerson who is checking his revolvers.
"Lady and gentleman, these are the greatest handguns ever made. The Colt Peacemakers, twelve bullets, more than enough to kill anything that moves." Hickerson said.
"OK, we have a ballistic gel torso set up for you." Matthew said.
Hickerson walked up to starting line with his revolvers holstered.
"Dave, are you ready." Matthew asked.
"You bet!" Hickerson yelled.
"THREE..TWO..ONE..FIRE!"
Hickerson draws the guns quickly and fires three rounds from both into the dummy's chest area where the heart is located. He then readjusted his aim and and shoots the dummy right in the head with the remaining three rounds in both guns. After that he holstered his revolvers.
"Nice shooting Dave." Jesse said.
"Nice indeed, the first six rounds went into the chest where the heart is located." Dr. Ronald said. "The other six blew this dummy's brains out. All of these would kill."
"We also timed your draw, you drew your guns in one quarter second, which is faster than anyone can get out of the way." Jesse said.
"While I can't deny the evidence, I believe I have a far more effective weapon."
John Marston fires back with:
The Double-Action revolver, a fast firing revolver that was the official side arm of the US military from 1892 to 1908.
(Shows Marston unloading his six rounds in a banditos chest, killing him.)
Double-Action
Weight: 2 pounds
Length: 11 inches
Cartridge: .38 Long Colt
Clip Size: 6 Rounds
Miranda upholsters her double-action revolver and shows it off to the group.
"This is the double-action revolver, John found this gun after he cleared a banditos hideout in Tesoro Azul." Miranda said "Even after he acquired better side arms, he stuck with this weapon."
"OK, we have the same test set up, so lets go."
Miranda walks up to the firing line and like Hickerson, her weapon was holstered.
"Miranda, are you ready." Matthew asked.
"Absolutely." Miranda answered back in a slightly seductive tone.
"THREE..TWO..ONE..FIRE!"
Miranda drew her revolver with the same speed as Hickerson did, and fired. The six rounds pelted the dummy in the head, blowing its brains out. After a few seconds, Miranda spun her revolver a little and holstered it. Dr. Ronald stepped in to access the damage.
"Well, you don't need to be a medical genius to know that she killed this man six times over."
"Well, it was a great show, but remember that I have six more shots than her, and more power in my revolvers." Hickerson said.
"Well it's not gonna matter cause John is gonna have six bullets in Colton before he gets a chance to get to his guns." Miranda retorted.
So who gets the edge in short range revolvers.
"the double-action revolver is a nice gun but the peacemakers have more rounds and better power which trumps the double-action's faster rate of fire." Jesse Explained
In short range weapons, the EDGE goes to Colton White for the Colt Peacemakers.
Next up, Mid Range.
Colton White blasts in with:
The Double Barrel Shotgun, a shotgun that packs a one-two punch
(Shows Colt kill a bandit with a two barrel blast.)
Break-Action
Weight: 5 pounds
Length: 11 inches
Cartridge: 12 gauge
Clip Size: 2 rounds
Hickerson walks up to the group with his weapon in hand.
"This is the weapon that coined the phrase "riding shotgun", This type of shotgun was the norm in Colton's time." Hickerson explained.
"OK, the test we got set up is you on a stagecoach shooting at two foam dummies as attacking bandits." Matthew said.
Hickerson got onto the passengers seat of the stagecoach with the driver.
"DAVE ARE YOU READY!" Matthew yelled.
Hickerson gave a thumbs up.
"THREE..TWO..ONE..GO!"
The stagecoach started to go towards the first target, Hickerson aimed his shotgun. As they got closer, Hickerson fired and the spread of the round hit the dummy in the chest. The stagecoach continued forward and they neared the target, Hickerson fired his second round into the dummy's stomach. The stagecoach stop a ways past and Hickerson walked up to the group at the first dummy.
"This was good shooting while on the move, this guy got a chest full of pellets. This guy is dead." Dr. Ronald said.
Then the group walked up to the second dummy.
"This would be a horrible way to die if you got shot right in the gut." Dr. Ronald concluded.
"That was good, but I have a shotgun that's way more lethal." Miranda said.
Marston blast back with:
The Pump-Action Shotgun, a shotgun that can kill as fast the shooter can pump the gun.
(Shows Marston killing a member of Dutch's new gang with a blast from his pump gun.)
Pump-Action
Weight: 8 pounds
Length: 39 inches
Cartridge: 12 gauge
Clip Size: 5 rounds
Miranda produces the said weapon to the group.
"This is the pump-action shotgun, which was and improvement from the lever action shotgun that came out in 1887." Miranda said. "It can fire just as fast as the person pumping it."
"OK, we have the same test, so mount up." Matthew said.
Miranda walks to the stagecoach and gets onto the passengers side.
"MIRANDA, ARE YOU READY!" Matthew said.
Miranda gave the group a thumps up.
"THREE..TWO..ONE..GO!"
The stagecoach began towards the first target, Miranda aimed her shotgun. As they neared the first target, Miranda fired twice, hitting the dummy both times in the chest. The stagecoach moved forward and Miranda aimed at the second target. As they neared, Miranda fired twice again, repeating the same damage as the first target. The stagecoach stop away from the second dummy and Miranda disembarked and walked to the group.
"That was amazing Miranda, both of the targets got the same treatment and both are dead." Dr. Ronald said.
"I could do the same thing if I had time to reload my shotgun." Hickerson said in defense.
"Whoa, your just back peddling from the evidence." Miranda said.
So who gets the edge in mid range shotguns.
"This hands down goes to to the pump-action shotgun, it has a higher rate of fire than the double barrel." Jesse said.
In mid range weapons, the EDGE goes to John Marston for the Pump-Action Shotgun
Next up Long Range,
Colton brings in:
The Buffalo Rifle, a single shot rifle that can kill a buffalo with one shot.
(Shows Colton shooting a Apache with the the rifle sending flying.)
Falling Block
Weight: 9 pounds
Length: 47 inches
Cartridge: .45-70 government
Clip Size: 1
The group walk up to Hickerson as he finishes loading the weapon.
"This is the gun that Ned White, Colton's adoptive father used." Hickerson said. "This thing can hit a target from about 1000 yards."
"Well we have a gel dummy set up so let get this test started." Matthew said.
Matthew gets into the prone position and aims at the gel dummy's head, which is two hundred yards away.
"OK Dave, on your go." Matthew said.
After a few tense seconds, Hickerson pulls the trigger and the bullet flies into the air. The bullet hits the dummy right in the middle of the face. After that, Hickerson stood up and the group walked to the dummy.
"OK, you shot this guy in the no reflex kill zone, that means he couldn't have dodged it." Matthew said.
"This is how Colton is gonna kill Marston." Hickerson said with a grin.
"Whatever, I got something that can outgun this gun." Miranda said.
Marston comes in with:
The Winchester Repeater, the gun that won the wild west.
(Shows Marston firing the Winchester at U.S. Army troops during his infamous last stand.)
Lever Action

Length: 49 inches
Cartridge: .44 rimfire
Clip Size: 15 rounds
Miranda walks up to the group with the said rifle.
"This is the Winchester, the gun that revolutionized the west." Miranda said. "It allowed anyone to fire at long ranges fifteen times before reloading."
"OK, we have the same test, so let get to it." Matthew said.
Miranda got into the prone position and aimed down range.
"OK Miranda, on your go." Matthew said.
Miranda aimed carefully and fired. The round hit the dummy in the side. Miranda then levered the weapon to put a new round in and aimed. She fired again and hit the dummy right in the heart. After that she rose and her and the group walked to the dummy.
"Well the first shot would have floor this guy but he could still get up and fight, but the second shot to the heart would have killed him." Dr. Ronald.
"Well nice try Miranda, but my buffalo rifle killed my guy in one shot." Hickerson said with pride.
So who gets the edge in long range rifles.
"This goes to the buffalo rifle. While it has only one round it can hit from a distance." Jesse said.
In long range weapons, the EDGE goes to Colton White for the Buffalo rifle.
Last up, Special Weapons.
Colton White slashes in with:
The Tomahawk, the Native American weapon than can hack a man to pieces.
(Shows Colton killing a bandit with a tomahawk blow to the head.)
Iron blade with wooden handle.
Weight: 2 pounds
Length: 14 inches
"This is the classic Apache tomahawk." Hickerson said. "The one Colton used was from a Apache called Quick Killer, and was a proven killer."
"OK, what your gonna to slash at is a dead pig, since it had the same flesh type as humans." Matthew said.
Hickerson took his tomahawk and got into position in front of the hanging pig.
"OK Dave, on your go."
After a few seconds, Hickerson roared and slashed at the pig, created vicious slashing wounds. After he was done with the slashing, he inbeded the tomahawk into the pig's skull.
"Nice Job Dave, I'm pretty sure that this pig is dead." Dr. Ronald said.
"Well, I think I can do better than that." Miranda said.
Marston slashes back with:
The Bowie Knife, a knife that is legendary for its cutting and stabbing power.
(Shows Marston killing on of Reyes rebels with a stab to the heart with the knife)
Iron blade
Weight: 1 pound
Length: 12 inches
"The Bowie Knife is an American classic." Miranda said. "It can slash and stab, this was the most widely use knife in the west."
"OK, we have the same test set up, so lets go." Matthew said.
Miranda walked up to the hanging pig and she got into her battle stance with the bowie knife.
"OK Miranda on your go." Matthew said.
Miranda took a breath and stabbed the pig in the stomach and pulled down, creating a massive wound. She then began to slash at the pig and then stopped after a while.
"Miranda that was vicious. You completely destroyed this pig." Dr. Ronald said.
"OK, so you went buck wild on the thing, I did the same amount damage as well."
So who gets the edge in Special melee weapons.
"This is a tough one, but I think the Bowie Knife is just slightly better than the tomahawk." Jesse said.
In special weapons, the EDGE goes to John Marston for the Bowie Knife.
With all the testing complete, we are one step closer to see who his the Deadliest Fictional Warrior.

Jesse the pushes the enter button.
The Battle:
In a unnamed town in the wild west, Colton White is on a roof across the street from the saloon. He is waiting for his target, John Marston to walk out. Two federal agents had offered him 2,000 dollars to kill him because they said he was a dangerous outlaw. Meanwhile, Marston is finishing a game of poker and decides to leave. He gets up and walks out of the saloon towards his horse. As he's about to mount his horse a shot fired and a bullet whizzed past Marston face and landed on the wood floor on the porch of the saloon. John stumbled to the ground and looked to see Colton trying to reload his buffalo rifle. Marston quickly got up and retrieved his Winchester Repeater and started send lead at Colton. This made Colton drop his buffalo rifle and made his way down of the back of the building he was on.
Marston got his pump-action shotgun from his horse, head had his double-action revolver and bowie knife on his person. He approached the building with his Winchester raised. Suddenly, Colton appeared and fired his first barrel from his double barrel shotgun. Marston managed to find cover but the Winchester was shot from his hands. Marston replaces it with his pump-action and waits. Colton fires his last shell but misses. As he tries to reload, Marston comes out of cover and fires at Colton. Colton saw him before he fired and managed to avoid the first two shots from the shotgun. Colton dropped his weapon and pulled out his twin peacemakers and fired two shot from each revolver. The shots missed and Marston fired his last three rounds at Colton but missed.
Marston then drew his double-action revolver and fires all six rounds at Colton, managing to graze Colton in the left arm, causing him to flinch. In a panic, Colton fired the rest of his ammo wildly causing Marston to back away. When Colton finished his barrage, Marston pulled out his bowie knife and charged. Colton sidestepped, and produced his tomahawk. The two wenstern warriors then began to circle each other.
Colton was the first one to move as he began to slash at Marston. Back peddling, Marston managed to sidestep Colton and slashed his right arm. Colton groaned in pain and rose his tomahawk over his head and tried to come down on Marston. This only made Marston grin and with frightening speed, stabbed Colton in the heart. Colton dropped his tomahawk and looked down as Marston twisted the knife. Colton then fell on his back dead. After that Marston pulled out his knife and said,
"Sorry friend but you had no idea who you picked a fight with."
OVERALL WINNER: John Marston
"When I ran the sim, John Marston won about 57% of the time. His weapon's faster rates of fire gave him the victory here today." Jesse explained
John Marston deadliest weapons were the pump-action shotgun and bowie knife.
John Marston Kills:
Double-Action Revolver- 120 kills
Pump-Action Shotgun- 210 kills
Winchester Repeater- 160 kills
Bowie Knife- 80 kills
"Colton White managed to get 43% of time, while his long range marksman was great, it couldn't compete with the all-around skills of Marston." Jesse explained.
Colton's buffalo rifle was his deadliest weapon but it wasn't enough to secure victory.
Colton White kills:
Twin Colt Peacemakers- 150Kills
Double Barrel Shotgun- 60 kills
Buffalo Rifle- 200 Kills
Tomahawk- 20 kills
"The weapons Marston carried were slightly more updated than Colton's and thats what gave him the win." Matthew said.
"That what a computer told you." Hickerson said with a frown. "In real life, Colton would win."
"I respect Colton, but he doesn't compare to John and that's why he is the Deadliest Warrior." Miranda said with a smile.
(The last scene shows Marston pulling the knife out of Colton, holding up it up and roaring in victory.)
Next time on Deadliest Fictional Warrior, two made men of the Mafia go to war as:
