A series called Deadliest Warrior is coming to Spike TV which, apparently, will include some recreations of gladiatorial weaponry and demonstrations of it in action. I’ll try to embed a video here of same (but it was having difficulties yesterday):
If it doesn’t show up for you, here’s a link to the series page … click on the “sneak peak” tab to get to the gladiatorial stuff (the items on the first page are more ‘the making of’ type things).
