Tear Jerker / Deadliest Warrior

Go To

  • In the Saddam vs. Pol Pot episode, hearing Kilong Ung, a Cambodian genocide survivor, talk about his experience living under the Khmer Rouge. His parents and fifty other members of his extended family were killed.
    • After the ambush test for Pol Pot's LMG, Kilong talks about how he once came about a scene similar to the test. You can hear his voice waiver and stutter, clearly affected by the horrific memories:
    Kilong: When the war in Cambodia happened, I was just a boy. There was a time I heard the exact same sound, and when I got there, I saw bloods and guts just like this. I had a couple of Khmer Rouge soldiers that put similar guns to my head. They were about 12 or 13 years old.
  • The defeat of any warrior the viewer holds particularly dear to their heart. Cue sad music and montage of fallen warriors.
