Tornado kept the challenge belt for the 2nd time. From Joe. X
So, story time. This was actually the first ever episode of Robot Wars I ever watched (at about 4 or 5 years old). To this day I can still vividly remember spending the whole episode in anticipation of what this Tornado machine was and imagining it to be the most colossal thing in existence if all these robots were going through this just to fight it. Then I saw it and as a dumb kid was kind of underwhelmed, only for it to then blow me away by beating this seemingly lethal robot in a matter of seconds.
So yeah, this episode will always have a place in my nostalgic heart. It's the reason why robots like Terrorhurtz and Tornado remain among my favourite machines to this day, and more importantly it's what began an obsession that in many ways still lasts today.
Tornado was the best invertable robot in robot wars. From Joe. X
Such a shame this was Hypno Disc and Sir Chromolot's last televised appearances :(
amen on that. after when they went out in the 1st round, they've retired.
Whilst Hypno-Disc retired after this, Sir Chromalot did attempt to enter series 7 (This version being an invertible shiny box with a pair of saws). Apparently, Scorpion tore it apart in the qualifiers.
@@carribob1992 Yes and I think Chompalot suffered at Scorpion's claws to.

This episode marks the final televised appearances of both Steve Merrill and Mik Reed. May they rest in peace.
Wait, both of them passed away? I knew about Steve Merrill, but Mik Reed too?
Sadly yes. Mik Reed passed away a couple of years ago.
Very sad i didnt know this
I didn't know either of them passed away
@@jaydenhartley2589They did unfortunately
Who's Sir Chompalot? Was that some sort of an alliance with Sir Chromalot and Chompalot?
8:48 You can see Hypno Disc still spinning over the arena wall. That’s probably the first time I’ve seen a robot move once they’ve been flipped out.
This was the episode I saw live when I was about 5. It was an amazing experience. I was supporting Hypno-Disc throughout, so I must say the result of the first match was disappointing to a 5-year-old me, but it was still brilliant!
Hypno Disc was 2nd in series 3, and 4th in series 4-5. From Joe. X
39:36 all that for nothing in the end
Anyone want to offer an explanation as to why tornado seemed exempt from the active weapon rule in series 7? -_-
@@NoobsailerRBH Their scoop had a chain flail built into it which I can't seem to remember ever working.
@@Votesaxon07Reviews think it worked it was possible the least damaging weapon in series 7 tho
@@Votesaxon07Reviews Punctured the tyres of Gravity in the Semi-final battle though. Like buses, when they do show up - plenty to see!
That second melee was a manic fest. Brilliant action.
Matilda catapulted vader out of the arena with her 27kg flywheel. From Joe. X
Amazing 2nd group battle there and that suplex from Iron Awe was sweet.
Vader was catapulted out of the arena. From Joe. X
@@joeandrews7329 I know...
I love Jonathan Pearce saying Tornado is going to uses its static scoop to throw Terrorhurtz out, I guess Storm 2 did it eventually kinda? lol. :p I actually really enjoy this episode, an interesting variety of robots. But damn for all the build up (like literally its the entire point of the episode lol), that was a dull final.
He's great, Jonathan Pearce. From Joe. X
S.M.I.D.S.Y. didn't see that bludgening coming.
Terrorhurtz destroyed him in round 2. From Joe. X
Bet terrahurtz wished they'd turned that axe up to 180 now, they said it could jump I reckon it'd have jumped out the pit 😂😂
Terrorhurtz was similar to Killertron in robot wars. X
Hypno-Disc and Sir Chromalot's final match ever in Robot wars. At least Hypno-Disc avoided Mr Psycho when it was flipped out of the arena by Dantomkia.
Damtomkia thrust him out of the arena. From Joe. X
Not even SMIDSY's most brutal death now.
**Atomic stares at you**
@Tmccreight25Gaming he was mashed by Terrorhurtz in the episode. From Joe. X
The last time we saw Hypno-Disc and Sir Chromalot 😭
Damn right. Hypno-Disc and Sir Chromalot retired after they went out in the 1st round.
@@tyreesetjjoyner1995 Out of the arena they both went in this fight. From Joe. X
I think Dantomkia might have been more of a challenge for Tornado than Terrorhurtz was. If Dantomkia could have got under Tornado with its wedge front and pushed Tornado to the edge and got a good flip. But then Tornado is lightning quick too, as we saw.
I agree it has an amazing flipper, I would have loved to see tornado flipped out the arena
@@therunawaykid6523Chaos 2 did it to him in series 4. From Joe. X
Big fan of "Tunado"
Form line. Tornado was the winner of the UK/USA extreme warriors series 2 episode when Mick Foley was doing the presenting. From Joe. X
I would of been nice to see challenge belt return
Tornado deserved to win the belt twice. From Joe. X
Don't remember this episode at all! Had what I thought was the entire series downloaded from years ago and this wasn't there, so never seen it before!
Tornado kept the belt. From Joe. X
Iron awe actually is pretty awesome... it's got an axe better than most axe bots, and a flipper better than most flippers. Pretty cool. I also like it's somewhat derpy, somewhat menacing look lol.
Vader going out of the arena is funny. From Joe. X
This show had some great matches but damn that final match pissed me off. They have Terrorhurtz go through all those matches only to get jobbed out Daniel Bryan style against Tornado in the end. Why couldn't they just make a new belt for Terrorhurtz instead?
That's not the point of the Challenge Belt. The holder gets to keep it until a challenger takes it off them. If the holder beats three challengers in a row they get to keep it permanently, which is why - after Tornado first did just that - they made a second challenge belt - which Tornado just retained in this fight.
@@cr10001Terrorhurtz followed Killertron's footsteps. From Joe. X
Dantomkia was pointed at chromalot then turns his attention to hypnodisc 🤣
He threw Hypno Disc out of the arena. X
Pls continue to do that i love it 😍😍😍
Great fun. From Joe. X
I don't think Psycho was happy at all about Hypnodisc getting taken out
He was so he could get damtomkia. From Joe. X
Shame Bigger Brother and Razer didn't take part in this :(
I agree I think razer would have destroyed tornado if it got through to the final with that devastating crushing beak like it’s done with pretty much everything
Always glad to see an episode without Bigger Brother, because of all the airtime they always gave to that annoying kid. :p
@@therunawaykid6523bigger brother won the minor meltdown episode. From Joe. X

Out of curiosity, I'd really like to see what robots like Shatter, Tombstone, Sawblaze, etc, would be able to do, if they were each given a man sized ballistic dummy with simulation bones. I know, it would be super dark (way too dark for Battlebots to do lol) but aren't you curious??? I say someone rich should fund this in the name of science and to demonstrate why you should be safe with these monsters.
Carbide would literally turn a human being into sludge
@@harrymartin684 that is my point. I want them to do some old Spike TV type shit 😂
@@harrymartin684disc-o-inferno is another. From Joe. X
@@Frosty_tha_Snowmanflywheels are dangerous weapons. From Joe. X
So miffed hypno disc went out so early, if he was left in the arena i would like to think he would have been able to inflict some damage. Last ever appearance as well 😕😢
He was 2nd in series 3. From Joe. X
Craig Charles is the only person I've ever seen who does't pronounce the first O in Tornado. T'nado.
He is great for his puns!. From Joe. X

He is awesome. From Joe. X
This makes me sad dantomkia is one of my all time favourite bots, I would love to see tornado flying out the arena 😔
They were thrown out of the arena in the series 4 semifinals by chaos 2
@jaydenhartley2589 correct sir! From Joe. X
I can't help but to think about Tut Tut. Would anyone think of taking on that Loanerbot and take the belt from him?
Chris Harriman drove it. From Joe. X

Terrorhurtz was awesome unfortantly the robot i moste hate wins the cheaters of the sith wars razer would have won if they played fair and thats why i hate tornado
*TORNADO DID NOTHING WRONG*
@@Tmccreight25Gaming i might have been a legit tatic but cmon the cage was just super lame
Not cheating but they were sore winners, sore losers and very unsportsmanlike. I hate tornado as well.
@@robotwars666here was nothing in the rules to say they couldn’t have that device. We’ve had walkers and other machines in the series that were just as large if not larger and were allowed to compete

Tornado was the worst thing that ever happened to Robot Wars.
He was an awesome fighter and a legend of the robot wars. From Joe. X
This was the episode that put me off dantomkia all they did this episode was go for the oota screw putting on a good show
Dantomkia flipped Hypno-Disc and Iron Awe 2 OOTA.
That's what flippers do. Nothing more satisfying than a good OOTA.
It’s what they had to do to win though. Most robots had self righting mechanisms by this point which countered being flipped so flippers needed to go for the out of the arena flips in order to win cos of limited co2 etc.
@@tyreesetjjoyner1995 here's a fact, Thermidor 2, Firestorm 4 and M2 flipped 2 robots over the fence in 1 fight!. From Joe. X
