Human Weapon kicks off July 20

I mentioned Human Weapon briefly back in March. The new series for the History Channel follows Professional fighter and martial expert Jason Chambers and former football player and wrestler Bill Duff as they travel the world to find martial arts experts and fight them. I assume it's a planned fight, I don't think Chambers and Duff will suddenly stop in mid-interview and start punching people, though that would be fun to watch.

History Channel now has a page for the series on its site, and you can catch the debut episode on July 20 at 10:00 p.m. The site also has a couple videos up that are worth checking out. If the videos are any indication, the series won't simply be men beating the living crap out of each other, but an exploration of different fighting styles that have been used for centuries. Watching Duff and Chambers try to break a wooden board with their fingers is quite entertaining.

Right pic: Duff and Chambers practice Pooh Fu, a fighting technique developed by Winne the Pooh in which pots of boiling honey are thrown in the opponent's face.
