S01E13 Silat: Martial Art of Malaysia

Few martial arts embody the essence of their homeland like Silat. This captivating yet lethal practice originated in the jungles of Southeast Asia, steeped in secrecy for centuries and closely linked to Islam. It stands out as one of the most fascinating and least understood combat systems worldwide. Now, hosts Jason Chambers and Bill Duff are ready to confront the world of Silat—and their own fears. They will train in intense outdoor facilities beneath the towering heights of the world's tallest twin towers and prepare for an ultimate challenge: a fierce showdown against six masters of Silat, including jumping through rings of fire.
