    It’s from the story of Samson in the Bible.

    The quote goes something like this:

    Then Samson said, “With a donkey’s jawbone I have made donkeys of them. With a donkey’s jawbone I have killed a thousand men.”

        Getting past the bible part, it’s funny because after losing a few hundred guys they’re still approaching a couple at a time, and the one guy is being distracting while trying to coach his buddy like, “we can still take him”

          I agree, I think that the gist of the joke is in meaningless coaching. Like, yeah, avoiding an enemie’s weapon is something one would never guess to do
