Quan, is this true?

I try to give people the benefit of the doubt. If it seems like someone got their idea from the book (to explain the informational disparity), I'll assume it was that rather than troll-y internet posturing.

I didn't read the books.

I accept your concession.

What do you call non GoT book readers? Fairypheggetssprinklebottoms?

Gauntlet's don't increase your grip strength. They're primarily defensive so glancing swipes and slashes at your hand/wrist/forearm doesn't do more than blunt force damage. And while punching someone with metal over your hands certainly makes it hurt more, it in no way aids in crushing skulls.

Quan doesn't know much, so go easy on him. He's just a simple man.

'Gauntlet's increase your grip strength!' -Quan 😂

Sprinting well over 400 yards, two nerve pinches, 8 stunner blasts, machine to the face, survived crash landing, jumped 98 feet and then having your arm broken and you thought someone could easily have taken that better ?

I wonder. Is any of that compareable to getting stabbed with a spear, get your Achilles tendon cut just to receive a flying spear into your chest? Because that is the punishment that The Mountain takes, before killing the Red Viper.


No human could fight through the two nerve pinches alone so you're wrong right there. Spock would crush any human fighter as well.

See above. And I'm willing to say, that somebody who is easily capable of crushing a skull with his bare hands is quite superior to Khan in terms of raw strength. Not to mention that Clegane managed to chop the head of his horse of with a single blow (season 1) while his - admittedly weaker - brother manages to cleave people wearing chainmail in two with a sword. I could also point to the fact that an almost glancing hit from Clegane is enough to let Oberyn spit half of his teeth out after having taken the aforementioned wounds.

Clegane standing would probably receive some beating by the rather fast Khan, but in the end, The Mountain would probably just tear him into pieces.

Gregor had better leverage on Oberyn. Gregor was on top of oberyn, and put all his weight into the eyesockets. Khan used sheer strength to crush a skull.

Big difference. Khan wins

Acting like a towel doesn't aid in grip strength with regards to a pickle jar is hilarious but steel gauntlets. Dear heavens. I can't force common sense onto you.

Give me steel gauntlets and let me grip your nose for instance. That will do far more damage than just with your fat digits. Oh wait it is the guy who doesn't understand what irony meant until I taught him the meaning.

The towels helps you hold fast so your hands won't slip off the smooth surface. The towel however does not increase the strength of your grip.

The towel increases the friction coefficient between your hands and the jar (what you said...but the physics terms).

The gauntlets helped Gregor in the books. Not in the show. I think we all know that and should move on.

You poor, stupid, stupid and ignorant person.

Facts: Gregor's gauntlets were leather and even armored gaunlets are often only metal on the back of the hand, as leather on the palm is used cos it offers superior grip. On your "nose" nonsense: If they were all metal, the metal would hurt, but it would not magically increase your already very weak strength. You're welcome.

Yes.

Tell that to Quanchi, he believes Gregor: A) Had metal gauntlets and B) Said gauntlets increase your strength

Against a much smaller opponent. You also left out he punched some of his teeth out while gouging out his eyes thus further weakening him. He also used leverage and passed out thereby after. Khan did so easily.

Khan crushed a skull with his bare hands unlike Gregor who had the aid of steel gauntlets that aided in punching his teeth out and gouging his eyes out. You're so ignorant to ignore these variables while hilariously ignoring the fact Khan did so off of raw strength alone.

Gregor's brother was beaten in a slugfest to a woman.

😂

Khan is faster, stronger, more highly skilled in hand to hand combat, and has greater recovery to the point of hilarity. Khan decimates him just as I decimate your awful points.

Ps. I'm better than you.

Gregor had gauntlets on aiding the feat whereas Khan did so with his bare hands.

He said aiding in the feat, though not that it made him stronger. Wearing metal gloves would help you crush a skull easier then bare hands imo.

quan will never admit to being wrong.

Towels for Grip Training Towels are great for building grip strength. Because they can be folded and molded into so many different positions, towels can be used in conjunction with other implements you are probably already using. This enables to train your grip not isolation, but rather integration: the entire body is being worked but the grip remains one of the limiting factors in the movement.

Ignorance thy name is Robbie.
