International Differences
In Sweden, contenders and Gladiators wore body armour and shoulder pads, and the event was renamed Hangbron. The hammerheads used for the South African series differed in design to those used in Britain, Australia and Sweden. In International Gladiators 2, challenger Lourene Bevaart was awarded 5 points when she knocked Gladiator Panther off, only to fall down herself before the time expired.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“The mother must teach her son how to respect and follow the rules. She must teach him how to compete successfully with the other boys. And she must teach him how to find a woman to take care of him and finish the job she began of training him how to live in a family. But no matter how good a job a woman does in teaching a boy how to be a man, he knows that she is not the real thing, and so he tends to exaggerate the differences between men and women that she embodies.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
