Australian Gladiators - Eliminator

[retroflashbackdude]

That was probably the fastest eliminator I've ever seen. He really took advantage of that 7 second head start.

[Kaynas1988]

Who were the two presenters of Australian Gladiators all I know is the female presenters first name was Kim or I could be wrong

[SouthParkFan273]

@Kaynas1988 The two presenters were Kimberley Joseph and Aaron Pedersen. Aaron got replaced by Mike Hammond in Season 2.

[Kaynas1988]

@SouthParkFan273 OK, thank you very much

[SouthParkFan273]

@Kaynas1988 No problem.

[Kaynas1988]

@SouthParkFan273 I only remember when Kimberley Joseph did Gladiators:The Ashes (I think) but for the life of me I could not remember her name

[SouthParkFan273]

@Kaynas1988 She also did International Gladiators 2 along with Ulrika Jonsson (UK) and Mike Adamle (US). Mike Hammond (who replaced Aaron Pedersen that was in this clip) had done the second Ashes series which was done in Birmingham.

[Kaynas1988]

@SouthParkFan273 Ah, OK thank you

[BenK8319]

albeit with a few colour differences, it's identical to the British Eliminator. Gladiators FTW :)

[CircusFreaque]

Oh man I used to watch this show every Sunday night!!

Go Mike Witney!!

and LOL at what they used to have to wear! haha

[ukgladiatorsfan]

@CircusFreaque It was actually on Saturday night!!! and me too!!!

[tom3999]

why do the men all have seedy mullets?

[beng1603]

Both men finished the eliminator in less than a minute! An outstanding performance!

[aiuhepdos]

oh god that girl host wanted to fuck the winner.

[Hanssen69]

Man that eliminator is lame.

[santachickens]

I wonder if the other ref named John is the same one who is in the series now. Because he looks pretty old in the current show. Could it be?????

[thechamp1010]

Why don't the men's eliminator in Australia don't use the hand cycle instead of the monkey bar? Even so, Phil Norman of Great Britain and two scoop of the USA are better than these 2 contenders.

[KenStah85]

The three best men from each country:

USA: Wesley "Too Scoops" Berry

UK: Phil Norman

AUS: Andrew Halliday

[gladfan1989]

@KenStah85 I do agree with you on 2 Scoops and on Andrew. But as far as the UK is concerned, I have to give my award to Paul Field.

[yellowrox1]

i loved this series, and andrew was my fav challenger! i'm not as much of a fan of the new gladiators... but still watch it lol. could you post some more episodes of the original australian gladiators series? please please please

[H0ld3nlgnd]

the music is so the 80's

[thechamp1010]

Whatevert the music was, it's much better than the new series!

[cs512tr]

yea the original 90'2 series was always my fav.

the new series of lasy year didnt have the same sparkle at all..

[ruantengyi]

oh, not fair. you could have extended the scene where the male champion sits in his new car.

[H0ld3nlgnd]

it would be better if the new one on seven was live, NOT F**** RECORDED

[Gladiatorson7]

It couldn't be done, it takes to long to set up each game for live TV... especially the Eliminator

[H0ld3nlgnd]

how did they do it with this version?

[Gladiatorson7]

Pre-recorded, just like it is now

[MADHOLDENFAN]

it wasn't pre-recorded, it was live i remember

[alphamone]

not broadcast live though

[yodadude666]

It's a bloody shame they couldn't have bought back at least 1 original gladiator.

[alphamone]

its been over 10 years, a long time for athletes.

[illusions23]

Whats with the music?

[havokkane]

the uniforms the challengers wear now are crap, and they all wear so much protective gear compared to the mid 90's, disappointed after tonight

[3Z3K13L08]

The new Eliminator has nothing on this one!

[spassisfun]

yeah, the last part where they swing through the banner was so awesome, and now they swing through a waterfall?? so lame.

[jasmibelleariel]

I agree. They should have kept the paper there instead of having a stupid waterfall that makes the challenger slip straight off the rope. Plus, the breaking paper makes more of an impact and gives a finality to it.

It would be nice if Ch 7 could put the original series on DVD for all us 20 somethings who loved watching the show as kids.

[spassisfun]

Though one thing i DO like is the new travelator. Looks pretty cool with the arrows n' all.

I wish they would make a DVD... it's unlikely they'll get the demand.

[sfu05]

i like old school gladiator betta then this new one

[smileyrayray]

i agree..

the music in the events were awesome in the old ones... i have no idea why they would take the music away....

love this eliminator music....

[3Z3K13L08]

I like the music too, it's great! All the electric guitars are awesome. Music in the mid 90's was great, now it's all fake and plastic.

It wouldn't surprise me if they put in some new RnB crap or hip hop or some of that pathetic pop rubbish like the Veronicas or some garbage.

[JamezAus]

australian gladiator owns the american version any day! tonight is the night dreams are made of! I wish id auditioned for the show

[sweetiegal08]

OMG.. GLADIATORS IS BACK ON TONIGHT (SUNDAY) 6:30PM iam sooo excited i watch it when i was about 5 years old i think and now im 19.. BRING IT ON GLADIATORS. I GONNA BE EXCITED FOR THE WHOLE DAY..... better watch out for thunder...GOOOO THUNDER HIS GONNA BE THE LEGEND

[2GXCVT]

i wanna see sum1 miss the handles on the flying fox XD

[obshane]

what brand new car did they win back then, a vn commadore

[viperjbl]

btw that was not a vn commodore*.

[D1cko888]

Cant wait for this to start again this year

I loved this when i was a kid!

[Avochelm]

they should bring this back.

[chocolateaddict24]

they are!!!

[MartyPotatoes]

I find it weird....You go through all this for a car back then, and now just being locked in a car for a few months and you win one..

[liverpoolsherry1991]

51 second finish time. the andrew guy was very fast

[0421145852]

it was actually 48 seconds

[liverpoolsherry1991]

I agree with you actually that andrew finished the course in 48 seconds

[jakamneziak]

the music is the same as the uk gladiators and the eliminator is (apart form superficial changes) essentially the same as our version. In short how the eliminator SHOULD BE

[stevie10101]

I LOVE THE FUCKING MUSIC HAHA...

[ombredevol]

kimberly joseph is hot

[wwe2005]

andrew rocked!

[blockheadman]

i so fucking remember this final

[Gollywog]

LOL, new car. They're worth 2k now

[billygimp]

I was thinking the same thing

[Lats85]

That david bloke was a legend!

[brodiemillwood]

haha i fully remember that final. what an awesome show!!!

[MEESHENATOR1]

love gladiators, tower was my favorite

[stipV]

HAHA BERNIE love this show so farking much, cannot WAIT for them to bring it back! Im gonna go on it haha I would shame myself very much, BEST SHOW EVER LOVE VULCAN! I remember this Andrew guy was SUCH a gun!

[pattyo34]

they are biring it back in 2008, its already been confirmed. i can't waitt!1

[triaspia]

This show was awesome, i remember watching it as a kid. I hope 7 does bring it back next yeaR.

[jasonlucena88]

this is sweet and they should start a new series of it on normal tv or foxtel maybe on fox 8 or fox sports

[bigpoppa1234]

I read channel 7 are bringing it back early next year.

[Billionaireboy88]

This was definitely the best aussie tv show. Lets all respond to channel 7 and ask for it to start up again. With enough response, u cant lose.

[t3hik]

this show sucked ass, but I'd rather win all those fit female gladiators! REOW!!!

[beeslay123]

i agree klancy the koala

[klancythekoala]

Agggh WHERE can I get full episodes of this!!!!??? Agree TimmyTickle - certainly sparked my interest again!

[TimmyTickle]

Because of last night's Where Are They Now, people have realised just how good this show was...especially when you consider the crap on Aussie TV now...

[Bayden7]

what nite was that on. where are they now. does anyone know the actual date its aired on
