I'm thrilled you've found South African Gladiators episodes! First impression, sorry UK, but MTN's "Nightshade" was way hotter than the former.

[@coordinator3039]

I also spoke to Granite

[@ukgladiatorsfan]

Great find! would love to watch more South African glads... Glenn hicks certainly has changed in terms of looks since we first saw him in IG2

[@coordinator3039]

I spoke to Granite and told him that his whiplash tactic was illegal. But was aware it was played on a ten foot high pedestal instead of a carpet. And the 45° angle was similar to the United States, except the United States also played on the ground.

Excellent!

[@gosomewhereSLOW]

You are the Gladiator we didn't know we needed. Thanks for uploading this.

[@marleelyons625]

Where do you even find these?

[@mmilller452]

Man I miss this series of much

[@MrCassiuschrome]

Fantastic find. Hope there’s more to come.

[@andysee6996]

Do you have all five seasons of MTN Gladiators? I have the full original runs of American, British, and Australian Gladiators, and this is the only other series in this franchise that wouldn't require me to learn another language (except maybe Nigeria).

[@coordinator3039]

Well Australian Gladiators series 5 is about to air

[@andysee6996]

@@coordinator3039 As an American, I really hope I can watch it.

[@ryandevonshire]

​@andysee6996 I'm British and I found the every episode (so far) of the new Australian Gladiators (2024) on Dailymotion so worth having a look to find it

[@peterwilliamskelhorn6675]

​@@andysee6996im a fan of the UK series and I've not long started watching your original version but from series(season) 2

[@ryanbullick1663]

are you going to upload more of this mate

[@coordinator3039]

Also correct in the description it’s Natasha De Johng

[@nateward9592]

Just curious, why was it called MTN Gladiators and why did the theme song and hosts have to say it that way?

[@epseix]

MTN are still one of the biggest communication providers on the continent of Africa (think Vodafone or O2), and they were the main sponsors and financial backers of the series - hence MTN was incorporated into the name to ensure maximum advertising potential at every opportunity.

[@Clark_Kent_ZA]

Thank you. May Nelson Mandela bless you 😇😇😇😇😇😇

[@coordinator3039]

It’s called a dogbone not a wishbone

[@beng1603]

What did the winners get?!

[@coordinator3039]

I’m not sure how much the prize was in Rand

[@FlukeDogg08]

10:35

[@coordinator3039]

23:37 Granite is using an illegal tactic. You cannot hold the dogbone while on the ground or the pedestal.

[@coordinator3039]

I only recognize the Bald Spider

[@coordinator3039]

I spoke to Granite once

[@Andy28548]

Bar the altered UK theme this is like a cheap knock off They could have atleast used the uk event music

[@coordinator3039]

Same with the U.S. they could have used the same event music since 1993
