  • Freddie is getting some warrior Massai training by mock fighting.
    "Freddie Flintoff Goes Wild" - Thursdays 9pm on the Discovery Channel UK
    Freddie heads first across the plains of the Serengeti for the annual wildebeest migration, but the journe is fraught with danger as predators are never far away. To ensure he's well equipped Freddie is taught by Masai elder Thomas, who shows him how to hunt, fight and find water in the blistering heat of the African bush. But Freddie's experience is underlined by disconcerting news as the tribe he's staying with enter into a fierce battle with a neighbouring clan.

      Indeed, they got someone who's pretty good, he was being careful not to get injured during the wrestling. Considering that they're fighting off other tribes or at least wild animals, they're pretty motivated to be good at fighting!

      He has very little skill if any. Using a spear one handed, in what looks like his weaker hand, and in a downward grip. If this idiot faced anyone with just a day's training he'd be butchered in seconds.

    I think that's just how males bond, when I was a kid me & my friends were fighting with another group, I was the strongest so I fought my counterpart in the other group, a few days after the fight me & the kid I fought became best of friends for life, we won each others respect because we didn't back down.

      I suppose anything which is a 'club' will resemble
      another weapon called a 'club'.
      It also resembles an Irish shillelagh (which is a club).
      Generically all these weapons are clubs.

      @@vinm300 You tried to act like some smartass intellectual with this comment, but you revealed yourself to be an ignorant pseud in the process. To a layman, such as yourself, all clubs look the same, but on taking a closer look we find this not to be the case. Each culture had different uses and manufacturing methods for their clubs and they often wind up looking quite different from one another as well as having different applications. The Knobkerrie (also called the Iwisa by the Zulu) of Southern Africa, for example, is primarily a hunting tool meant for throwing at animals. The Gunstock war club of the Eastern Woodlands of Northern Plains of North America, looked vastly different and was intended for use in hand to hand combat as a striking instrument as well as a psychological weapon to make enemies think it was actually a gun.

    Well the tools are not for a fist fight they are intended to be used to hunt or to defend oneself against a person that intend to do evil to you or your loved ones. A bar fight is something that happens out of foolish behavior that involves alcohol or drugs that escalate into idiotic ego show offs between the drunk or drugged “contestants” 🤷🏻‍♂️ (tools are not evil but the motives of the person using the tools give them purpose).
