Full Metal Jousting

[Gavin]

Full Metal Jousting is a new show on the History channel. They joust. It's awesome. Is anyone else watching this? I'm rooting for the tiny show-jumper to win.

Yes, we watched the first episode. It is pretty entertaining.

Is it really as brutal as the previews make it out to be?

Boredom is a dangerous thing... I'll be tuning in.

I watched about 30 minutes of the first one. I can see how it will become a guilty pleasure

I'll be on the lookout for this. Sounds very interesting.

At this point the guys are having trouble getting their lance on target. I think that as they improve it will probably get more brutal.

We were talking about this at our local cigar shop and we came to the conclusion they should be jousting on motorcycles!

A la the Ed Harris movie Knight Riders!

I LOVE it. My wife hates it. She keeps asking if it is a "real" sport.

I started watching but fell asleep. Thanks for the link to the episode.

From what I saw, it looked pretty cool and entertaining to watch.
