- If you've seen pictures of the Colosseum in Rome, then you already know that it used to be the hot spot in town to go see a Gladiator fight. Everyone would come out to watch fierce men in armor put on a show, but really they were fighting for their lives. In today's epic video we're going to take a look at what life was really like for an ancient Gladiator warrior!

Imagine the rush of walking out into the coliseum and squaring up with a tiger… jeez
The death probably didn’t hurt that much because of the rush

Imagine the fear
I’d rather not
Imagine wanting to be the best gladiator ever, then just end up being sat on by a bear
😂😂😂
Anime fan be like: if you are fast enough you can beat the bear
Yeah, I'm down for whatever.
Imagining a big, angry bear that rips & or slashes people’s heads off coming for a gladiator who instead of running or trying to stab & or club the bear makes like a chair & the bear says, “don’t mind if I do†& sits on the gladiator-killing him . Yeah sounds exciting
I imagine it’s similar to wanting to be an NBA Superstar, and then getting cut from your middle school team for a dog

I agree
WHERES THE LAMB SAUCEEEEEEEE
Yes
*where is the lamb SAUCE!!!*
*ITS BLOOD RAW*
I was a gladiator back then and I can 100% confirm, that the enactment of the convo between gladiators is spot on!!
Wrong gladiators rarely died so if you were a gladiator back then you would know this Is inaccurate
LOL!!
Wt up. Long time no see
This is exactly what I needed on a lonely Valentine’s Day

@Kimberly Johnson smh lol
@Kimberly Johnson wow
@Kimberly Johnson how is ur Valentine's day going on now

You need chatgtp
​@@mharixxhmm I'd be careful when using chatgpt for essays at school or college, they can detect use of AI now with simple AI detectors online or similar.
When you’re so early that there are no vids to click on when the narrators tell you to watch this
Haha I'm watching this 5 months later, and there's still no linked videos at the end.
@@Geckogold 4 years later .. still nothing.
It's interesting that not many gladiators really died in the arena, they were essentially like modern day athletes and they were expensive to train
You could probably die doing literally anything and everything at this period of time so a job that had a likelihood of death probably wouldn’t have mattered anyway
I know
Yeah especially since it’s usually depicted as a bloodbath in media

Is this a Spartacus reference?
It’s a gladiator reference the movie with Russell Crowe

@@peterhennig4678 yes.
Imagine beating everyone but getting the thumbs down still.
(Yoda death sound)
I don't think it is possible. You have to have lost to get the thumbs down

from what i have heard thumbsdown isnt bad its the thumbs up thats bad
edge lord everybody gangsta till someone hit the dislike button at the arena
The video mentions that gladiators who fought well were often spared. So to use a modern day moniker, watching a sporting event is much more exciting if the two teams are close to each other in points, and the game could still go either way, which keeps you on the edge of your seat. Even if your team ultimately loses, you'll mostly be satisfied watching it.
On the other hand, if your team keeps making huge mistakes, like say repeated fumbles or interceptions in American football, or the baseball pitcher keeps throwing pitches that even the crappiest batter on the other team is able to hit, after a while you'd probably get bored of it, and wouldn't want to watch it anymore.
So likewise, a gladiator that fought bravely even if they ultimately lose, would likely be spared so they could fight again. Whereas one that cowers in fear and keeps running away would probably earn the crowd's ire, and they'd likely call for that coward to die once they were finally defeated.
I am the commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true Emperor Marcus Aurelius, father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife - and I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.

@das *pfft*
Actually I have seen multiple documentaries that claim gladiators ate mostly fruits/vegetables/and starchs bc they didn’t want to pay for meat for them. But it turned out it made them capable of insane athletic feats
They tend to have more fat compared to what is shown on movies which tend to help avoid bleeding out as much. They use lentils as their major source of protein and they have to eat a lot since vegetable and carbs tend to not be as filling as meat. Meat were generally designated for high or elite classes.
Actually studies in gladiator remains showed they mainly lived on plant based diets and didnt really have luxuries such as meat.. also unlike how they are generally portrayed, they didnt tend to be very ripped and muscular and were often overweight (more body fat gives more protection to lacerations from blades/animals).
So they were fat vegans? Bah.
That doesn't really make sense since if they really didn't have luxuries such as meat how would they become fat in the first place? The athletic gladiators make more sense
@@twizzyaslThey had a very high calorie vegan diet.
@@twizzyasl I don’t think they ate red meats
Ever tried watching Spartacus with your parents around!?
This is SPARTAAAAA!!!!!!!
Nope just cuz u never knew when they were goin to smash someone face in or.. ehem smash something else 😒
I stop watching when the real guy died
@@raidenshat5206 Same it hit different when the main character passes away 😢ðŸ™ðŸ¾
@@raidenshat5206 same dude, it wasnt the same.
man could you imagine being the biggest strongest and scariest man in your area and you become a gladiator, go into a match and your paired up against just a goliath of a man and just destroys you lol. i wonder how often that happened
You have a good point, but like today's weight classes, they we're split into divisions of type of gladiator skill level etc thus to avoid such conflict as a goliath and say a skinny small debutant as this would not be a good fight and won't intrigue the crowd, but a interesting point though
@@Alienjujitsu that makes sence haha. it would be a blood bath if it wasnt divided up like that
Yes it would my friend, it wouldn't be no fun for the crowds as it would be over in seconds ha, ha, thanks for the reply though brother
BTW brother, I think Dana White is what we could call a modern day Lunista
Imagine a 6 year old Russian kid fighting a bear, than becoming an undefeated world champion :))
Not just a bear, but a world renowned chicken aswel, going undefeated in 29 matches and earning his freedom
Khabib ðŸ˜
@@hamzam5394 The chicken in its prime was a legend tho. And took on an entire devision by himself ;)
Haha I know who you mean, but I think the bear he fought wasn't as ferocious and starved as the animals in the arena. Because if a bear were to use claws and fangs, no grappling skills would help you.
Like si no sabes por que esta en el canal de anuel 🤣🤣
Ja si pues capaz lo haya visto
Y que pasa es un humano vemos nuestros canales favoritos
A saber porque
Vio ese video y sin culpa lo agrego a la lista y ni cuenta se dio, por cierto me siento todo pro por ver un video que vio anuel jajaja
Jajja
Thes best youtube channel ever, this is exactly the kind of things i think of
for real
I’m talking bout all day 🤣🤣
Watch kurzgesagt too, pretty much the same thing but with better animation 😉
As much as it would churn my stomach I would give anything to go back in a time machine and watch an actual gladiatorial event.
You're weak
@@djinndevyl7077 Or not a psychopath.
@@djinndevyl7077 actually it’s not and just how humans are.
then throw up during the first event lol
3:20 Gladiators really had intense fights
now i see how much Suzzane Collins based the hunger games on Roman history. Thanks Infographics Show! :)
6:35 That was a beautiful line up of weapons and shields. I'll have to take a few screen shots of that. :)
"They just had to keep surviving"...
"Are you not entertained?! Are you not entertained? Is that why you were here?" - Maximus Decimus Meridius
We should honestly bring this back a all volunteer gladiator force
death as a gladiator was actually rare, they cost a lot of money so they usually fought til there was someone bleeding
When you’re so fast to a video and have nothing to comment
The problem being fast and light is that you can only live in darkness

Unpopular opinion: I wouldve loved to be a self employed Gladiator
Petition to have a modern gladiatorial style Olympic event but it’s something like laser tag one on one tactical fights and team laser tag tactical fights
But with deadly lasers :)
Roses are red

This wasn't really a poem, happy valentines day.
I made one: Roses are red,

Because I have two for you.
Roses are red

I don't have a clue
Happy valentine's day!! I hope you dont see this till tomorrow... i hope this year is better.
Why did some of the gladiators in this looked like a Roman soldier
The ones that play up, I send off to gladiator school. ðŸ˜
Similar time period? Romans’ and gladiators etc.. plus it’s more aesthetically pleasing for the viewer(us).
GLADIATORS ARE FROM ROME
THE ROMAN COLOSSEUM
But idk why they had legionary equipment
Porque esto esta en el canal de anuel?😂
Yea this is better than the documentary my teacher wanted me to watch
my teacher had us watch this for school i normally watch you guys so thank you
Sounds like something that will reimage in the future
I just finished watching gladiator.
Abraham Lincoln are you neyot entertained??!
Prove it
@@JimBobe what do you mean prove it?
@@AbrahamLincoln4 I dont believe you. I request proof
@@JimBobe Is it a requirement that I prove all my statements? I watched the gladiator movie isnt that enough? You dont need proof, You are not obligated to prove everything I say.
we need a "SPARTACUS" video!..HE DESERVES ONE!!
guys hit a like to raise this !! the man was a legend and his name is still called upon when the word "freedom" comes!
Such a wonderful animated video. May I know which animated software you use to make such good videos??
Go animated
Time to start givning us your sources since most gladiator did not slay each other. Consensus from most historians
skvalparn - I agree. This was very inaccurate.
eventually they ended up banning gladiatorial battles after a christian monk went into the arena to stop a fight and was killed..... but this was towards the end of the western empire after adopting christianity.
Someone is pretending to be the Infographics show on tiktok

¿Alguien sabe por que este vÃdeo está en el canal de Anuel?
Porq me dio la gana subirlo
Just rewatched season 1 of Spartacus.
True
Actually gladiators rarely died also the crowd were not bloodshed maniacs also gladiators were treated quite well
Don’t forget shouting “ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINEDâ€!
man what a life
Imagine if you were a gladiator going into the arena with your sword and shield and your mf’ing rival pulls out a glock
😂
Jœ Mæmæ you'd have no idea what it was
And also some Roman shields were a few inches thick of metal sooo a 9mm wouldn't go through
@@mik4209 actually this is why he probably meant a .45
@@mik4209 wrong. It leather and wood and has a small round price of metal in the center. And even if it was metal the bucket would still go through
@@carlbelit9049 there were different types of shields I meant a different type not the standard type, I can’t remember it since the comment was a year ago.
Young offenders institutions are the same well gladiator school, I learned that very quickly.. On my 1st day actually lol

Can u guys please make a video about how they simulated Ship fights in some arenas?
To bad you didn't mention the part where they would sometimes *cough* *cough* get intimate with the beasts for the crowds entertainment.
I remember a story about a woman and a giraffe, I think she died.
im a gamer and i find this youtube channel really cool And i think schools should use his videos for education
So basically the gladiator business was a early version of distracting people from real problems
its like early day ufc
10:26
infographics show:"click the video to the right or left"
phone users:"am i a joke to you"
Well, you bought garbage, so...
If I could time travel my first stop would be to see a gladiatorial game!
Do ancient African history (besides Egypt). Then do Polynesian, Australian, and Southeast Asian history
Maximus Decimus Meridius, or better known as Maximus the Merciful, or the Spaniard. Greatest gladiator to ever have fought.
This would be fire to watch irl🔥🔥
This comment just goes to show humanity unfortunately has not matured at all since the times of Gladiators. There’s just too much technology now watching everything for people to do what they really want
@@johnnyrocket1685 I really don't think you have matured much either, going around responding back to almost every comment disagreeing with everything. That's very much so not needed.

$10 to whoever can spot the weapons of Jet with his crew of Freedom Fighters
All this sounds so epic but its just a tragedy
No
"Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?"

Ave Gladiatores!
You said it, Citizen! ðŸ‘ðŸ¼ðŸ˜
Gladiator names are the best
Idk but everytime i watch a infographics show at afternoon it makes me wanna sleep.
Why is this on Anuel aa chanels
Pov: you are here because your teacher left this as an assignment for online school
Of you’re one of the free ones it sounds kinda cool
gladiators in 2021 would be dissing on the person they killed on twitter no cap
People back then went to school to pay off debt, nowadays people go to school to gain debt.
I like the circular hands in these cartoons. Not a whole lot of fingers.
If I had to fight a gladiator that was stronger than me, I would cuddle myself in the corner of the arena, put my shield infront of me and have my weapon sticking at the corner of the shield. Then, when the gladiator comes I would say "Please, please! Spare me! I admit that you are stronger than me! Have mercy, sir!"
Or just run around the arena till the other gets tiered
only on this vid did i figure out that i could click the bell cause i forgot i had a youtube acount lol
I sometimes believe that I wasn’t meant to be living in this day and age. I should’ve been alive during the ancient time periods.
You wouldn't last a minute ! Now get back to your Mom's basement 🤦ðŸ¾â€â™‚ï¸
Great vid
You forgot the end screen
Very ironic how commodus was killed by a wrestler.
I’d love to watch a gladiator fight
No cap
Watch Spartacus
POV: your here for school but they told u to skip a certain part 💀
This isn’t inhumane solitary confinement is this should make a comeback
