wel nothing on that surprised me
once again they did it half heartedly,like all their tests
however,Adam did point out that the stone head(obsidion in this case)creates a larger wound channel
therfore allowing the animal to bleed out quicker.
who knows maybe the started with just pointed sticks for poking and stabbing,and over a millenia
learned that adding a sharp rock to the end made for faster and more frequent recovery of game
which means more food,and thats protien.
protien allowed for better brain development,which in turn allowed for more learning ability,which in turn allowed for
the creations of new technologies(what we now call primitive)
personnaly i think if they would have contacted theright people when doing their research for the episode,they could have done better testing
with the appropriate equipment and also the proper knowledge to understand some of the theings ya'll have mentione,like the resistance
differances bewenn flesh and bullistics gel,how it close around a projectil and flesh would open etc.
as far as calling the obsidion flint, i think they were just generalizing with that.if Jamie knew how to knapp,he knew there was a differance between the two.
but like i said,they always do their testing half assed
but i still enjoy the show,who doesnt like to watch stuff blow up
