Gladiators: You versus [X] Five Year Olds.

Stolen from another board I frequent, but seemed applicable here.

Your test, should you choose to accept it, is to see how many 5 year old kids you could take on at once. The Rules Are:
  • You are in an enclosed area, roughly the size of a basketball court. There are no foreign objects.
  • You are not allowed to touch a wall.
  • When you are knocked unconscious, you lose. When they are all knocked unconscious, they lose. Once a kid is knocked unconscious, that kid is "out."
  • I (or someone else intent on seeing to it you fail) get to choose the kids from a pool that is twice the size of your magic number. The pool will be 50/50 in terms of gender and will have no discernable abnormalities in terms of demographics, other than they are all healthy Americans.
  • The kids receive one day of training from hand-to-hand combat experts who will train them specifically to team up to take down one adult. You will receive one hour of "counter-tactics" training.
  • There is no protective padding for any combatant other than the standard-issue cup.
  • The kids are motivated enough to not get scared, regardless of the bloodshed. Even the very last one will give it his/her best to take you down.


I'd say I could take 20 -- at least for a while -- mostly by playing them off against each other and perhaps swinging one from the foot as a club, to keep a clear circular buffer between me and the mini-combatants.

Mostly, I posted this to simply to see what bilmore's historical limit was.
