FINALLY. We'll have an answer to the most important question ever posed by mankind: who would win in a fight, a shark or a croc? And NOW we will know, through the use of modern 21st century technology.

 

The shark's going to win of course. I pity all of you who think otherwise.

 

Oh, how I pity you.

Wait... is this why Adult Swim is doing their "Flying Shark vs. Flying Crocodile" thing this week?

The Discovery Channel ripped them off. True story.

I wonder what the Australian Discovery Channel programming format is compared to that of the USA?

 

I'll check my guide, anyway.

Regardless of the fact that the Discovery Channel STOLE the idea from Adult Swim, I still enjoyed the show.

for the record, the Shark won.

 

I though they were going to actually let the robots go apeshit on each other. It was still cool though.

me: this fight better not end with a run-in by a manatee

me: or the NWO

friend: Ha! The latter would be classic

friend: With Hall hitting the shark with The Outsider's Edge

me: "They're spraypainting NWO on the croc.. fortunately, spraypaint doesn't work that well underwater"

Can John Tenta play the role of the Shark?

I saw an advertisement for this the other day... and it looks pretty cool. This doesn't change the fact that my attention span doesn't let me watch much tv.

I tried to watch this on Sunday, when it originally aired ... it's actually pretty boring. A bunch of scientists-types create a robo-animal and have it bite through shit (like a melon or a coconut) to show how strong it's bite it. But for the actual fight, they just use CGI to create a mock battle. Secret: you should just watch the last 10 minutes to see the 'fight' and skip the boring scientist babble.

Man they should just have the Robots go at it in a battle of craftmanship, design, and such. It's always more fun to see actual stuff fight it out than to have computer mockups. Plus the Rhino machine would have kicked the crap out of the Elephant bulldozer. That's where the money is Discovery Channel.
