Fight Quest

Anyone here watch Fight Quest on the Discovery Channel?

I've seen just a few shows.

I was interested in the show where they showed the Filipino martial art of Kali.

That was pretty cool.

i love that show and try not to miss it.

they do a pretty good job sometimes (for an hour entertainment show) of providing some detail on how to do some of those things.

it would be pretty fun to travel around and do that stuff.
