** Before that, the way in which the Al Capone camp demonstrates the switchblade, by smugly carving up a (ballistics gel replica of a) person, finishing of by slicing its throat.

* The finale of the battle between Jesse James and Al Capone was particularly awesome. [[spoiler: Also, since the Jesse James gang is portrayed as sort of of a {{Band of Brothers}} as opposed to Capone's BadBoss approach, it can also be seen as somewhat of a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming]].
** [[spoiler: Particularly when one theorizes that the surviving gang member is probably Jesse's brother Frank.]]

* The Aztec Jaguar gets two: To test an obsidian bladed club, they ''decapitated a horse''. A gel torso replica, but still... Later, to test his knife, the Aztec expert ''carves open the gel torso's chest'' and ''[[BeatStillMyHeart rips out it's heart!]]''
** Which is then topped by the Zande, when their close range weapon decapitates a gel torso in one strike, and the resident surgeon Armand Dorian declares it to have, "surgical precision". And then the Zande representative starts drinking up the squirting blood.

* When testing Vlad the Impaler's sword, the [[http://www.spike.com/video/mutiliation-murder/3418876 kilij]], a guy who looks more like a member of [[{{Metalocalypse}} Dethklok]] than a weapons expert shreds a pig in a display that gets the weapon called "the first sword that can rival the [[KatanasAreJustBetter katana]]."
* In [=SEALs=] vs. Israeli commandos, there was [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPM1TO_al84 Rob Roy testing the [=SEALs'=] Recon 1 knife.]] Awesomeness ensued. The look of shock on Max's face and his complete speechlessness says it all.
** Moreover because of how dinky it looked compared to the Ka-bar when he and the Israeli were standing next to each other. Think about it: that knife is about three inches long, and Roy did to the gel torso what most people would need a sword to do.
* When Abdi Ali (the Somali pirate rep) was able to hit four targets, 50 and 100 yards away, and kill them all. Made all the more impressive as he's using an AK-47--a gun that's usually considered inaccurat-- and also it was from a boat that was moving and unsteady. Then again, Abdi is an Iraq War veteran, leading to fans complaining that he didn't represent a typical pirate.
* Sun Tzu's leather armor [[spoiler: stopping a bolt from a crossbow almost 2000 years more modern.]]

** Similar to how [[spoiler: Washington finished off Napoleon, Roosevelt gave Lawrence a [[GoodOldFisticuffs stiff right hook]] before [[NoCapes trapping Lawrence's knife with his opponent's cape]] before finishing him off.]]

* The fight between Vampires vs. Zombies. [[OneManArmy Gallons of blood.]] [[{{Gorn}} Unrelenting brutality.]] [[BeyondTheImpossible One. Awesome. Brawl.]]

* The inclusion of [[TheZombieSurvivalGuide Max]] [[WorldWarZ Brooks]] in the Zombies vs. Vampire episode.

** You're only showing the tip of the iceberg here. It was actually more impressive than that: [[spoiler: Saddam tied up the corpse of a fallen Khmer Rouge guard and used it as a decoy to fool Pol. When he took the bait, Saddam showed up behind him, fired off a pithy one-liner, and shoots him in the head.]]

** Similar to how Washington finished off Napoleon, Roosevelt gave Lawrence a [[GoodOldFisticuffs stiff right hook]] before [[NoCape trapping Lawrence's knife with his opponent's cape]] before finishing him off.

** Earlier in the sim Roosevelt gets shot by one of Lawrence's soldiers wielding a rifle. Rather than punk out like anyone else would Roosevelt gets right back up and says he's okay. A nod to real life when Roosevelt did get shot and finished what he had to do before anything else.

* During the simulation for Theodore Roosevelt vs Lawrence of Arabia, Lawrence kills Roosevelt's last soldier with his dagger. The soldier falls, revealing Roosevelt stading there, knife in hand, ready to fight.

* In the sim for [[EvilVsEvil Saddam Hussein vs. Pol Pot]], [[spoiler: rather than a dramatic fight to the finish, Saddam puts a bullet right into Pol Pot's skull]].

* Joan of Arc's siege cannon basically liquefying a gel torso it was used on.

* The finale of the battle between Jesse James and Al Capone was particularly awesome. [[spoiler: Also, since the Jesse James gang is portrayed as sort of of a {{Nakama}} as opposed to Capone's BadBoss approach, it can also be seen as somewhat of a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming]].

* The Spartan's shield pretty much any time it's shown.

* In TheMafia vs {{Yakuza}} [[spoiler: the Mafia boss ice-picking the last Yakuza, lighting a cigar and sauntering away with a cocky smile.]]

** Even more so when you consider that it seems implied that its Jesse's brother, Frank James, that saves Jesse in the end.
