Full Metal Jousting is a reality television show that aired on the History channel in 2012. The show centers around the sport of jousting, which involves two armored knights riding towards each other on horseback and attempting to knock each other off with a long lance.

The show is hosted by Shane Adams, a professional jouster, who guides the contestants through a series of challenges and competitions. The contestants consist of 16 amateur jousters from various backgrounds, including a firefighter, a rancher, a tattoo artist, and a police officer.

The contestants are divided into two teams, led by Captain George and Captain Jake, and are trained by professional jousters and coaches. The training involves various exercises and drills to improve their skill, balance, and endurance on horseback. The contestants also undergo strength and conditioning exercises to prepare for the physical demands of jousting.

Each episode features a series of jousting matches between members of the two teams. The matches take place in a large arena with a dirt floor and wooden barriers. The jousters wear full suits of armor and helmets, and ride horses provided by the show.

The matches are intense and thrilling, with the jousters charging towards each other at full speed and delivering powerful blows with their wooden lances. The matches are judged by a panel of experts based on the accuracy and force of the hits, as well as the skill and athleticism displayed by the jousters.

In addition to the jousting matches, the show also features behind-the-scenes footage of the contestants interacting with each other and with the coaches. There are also interviews with the contestants, where they discuss their motivations for competing and their experiences on the show.

Throughout the season, the contestants are eliminated one by one, until a winner is crowned in the final episode. The winner receives a prize of $100,000 and the title of Full Metal Jousting champion.

Overall, Full Metal Jousting is a unique and exciting show that combines the thrill of medieval combat with the drama and competition of a reality TV program. It is a must-watch for fans of jousting, medieval history, or adrenaline-fueled competition.

Full Metal Jousting is a series that is currently running and has 1 seasons (10 episodes). The series first aired on February 12, 2012.
