This week Derek has a discussion with Geoffery "Thor" Desmoulin a Biomedical Engineer from Vancouver, Canada. Geoffery does a lot of work with accident reconstruction and medical device testing. Most people, however, know him best from his well loved Spike Television show 'Deadliest Warrior' which featured highly detailed looks at historical combat scenarios to determine age old questions such as 'Who would win in a toe to toe fight, a Ninja or a Spartan' using scientific tests and a bit of investigation, kind of like a more dangerous version of Mythbusters.
