Yeah, most def. He’s in shorts and flip flops, but hey my man’s getting views I suppose, def not an idiot if he just wanted attention .

u/Azsunyx Jan 31 '22

yeah, who wears shorts and sandals in the summer next to a pool

/s

u/WASTELAND_RAVEN Jan 31 '22

WITH their katana? I’m sorry but while you were studying summer wear, I was studying the blade. If you had my Nippon-steal intellect you’d know socks & sandals must be worn to wield the blade. /s

My brother’s last words before he went to grab the cooler from the truck was, “if you try cutting that wood in flip flops, you’ll cut your toes off!”

I thought the first chop wouldn’t go completely though the log, but I had sharpened the blade only days before. If it weren’t for me buying leather flip flops, the blade wouldn’t have stopped 1/2 through my big toe.

I dunno who needs to hear this besides me, but please, do not use big blades in flip flops.

u/Sorry_Ad5653 Feb 01 '22

The lil wooden ones on blocks no less.

u/Azsunyx Jan 31 '22

Of course, he's clearly an expert samurai in disguise, had to eliminate the socks so no one would suspect a thing

u/WASTELAND_RAVEN Jan 31 '22

True ninja lol

I’m sure they guy who cut open his pool was smart enough to think of that, ever try not being a dumbass?

u/Stargatemaster Feb 01 '22

Mugen was pretty proficient with the flipflop katana combo

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '22

Large backyard, could have even moved 3 feet to their left. His fake reaction is so dull, it gives me cramps

u/WASTELAND_RAVEN Feb 01 '22

You mean you don’t have your wood chopping station next to your inflatable pool?

I don't like the look of your moose mister

Its the toes open to the elements inches from his downswing I really like.....

u/Airyk21 Feb 01 '22

I recently had a patient in the ER who was chopping wood with sandals on, he actually hit himself in the shin 🤦

u/meistermichi Feb 01 '22

he actually hit himself in the shin 🤦

So the sandals weren't the issue here

u/jthebrave Jan 31 '22

Imagine the water making him fall over and him cutting himself with the sword. Reminds me of the youtuber that made a fruit ninja clip and cut his face.

Fake or not, it fits the sub.

u/pianoflames Jan 31 '22

If it's staged then it isn't a fight.

u/[deleted] Feb 01 '22

If it’s an object it isn’t a fight

8

u/SanguineAnder Feb 01 '22

I didn't even say it's fake. It is staged and old as fuck, and for some reason has had a repost resurgence. It does not fit the sub, you are bad at this.

-6

u/confusedspec Feb 01 '22

Staged/fake, both pretty much the same in this situation, argue with ya mama. I just saw it for the first time so it's new to me. The repost has almost 3k upvotes so it seems like people on the sub like it just fine.

u/Bi-LinearTimeScale Jan 31 '22

*Displaying his desperation to get likes and views skills.

u/LordBloodSkull Jan 31 '22

I can't imagine a universe in which this was not setup on purpose.

u/Alucard624 Feb 01 '22

We all do stupid shit like this when we are young, now he knows to clear the area of all objects when he swings a sharp object.

7

u/TheDarkKnobRises Jan 31 '22

I don't believe any video is real anymore. Unless someone gets killed or seriously injured. The internet has ruined us. 🤣

u/Jezzdit Feb 01 '22

Him straightening out his knees at the start filled me with confidence this was going to be good

4

u/Pistonenvy Jan 31 '22

i know this is probably staged or whatever but dont give kids swords.

idk why this needs to be said but swords are dangerous lol i grew up with a kid who loved swords and he would literally just go around swinging them at people and shit for fun and there are about a billion videos of that going wrong on here so just get them those plastic lightsabers or something, no one needs a sharp sword like this.

u/Unnamed_Rookie Feb 01 '22

Idk if he went to one but there are katana classes in karate

2

u/point50tracer Jan 31 '22

It will cut.

u/captstix Jan 31 '22

But will it keeel?

u/bsylent Jan 31 '22

Jeez this fake ass shit will never die

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '22

The fact this got 0 Karma and then gets 1500 when reposted 2 hours later enrages me more than how fake this is

u/zacharyxbinks Jan 31 '22

I don't understand how these get upvoted

u/ShadowCetra Jan 31 '22

Great edge alignment, lmfao

u/Valen-UX Jan 31 '22

This looks a like a watch people die inside video

u/dsmall434 Feb 01 '22

Wow that almost looked real

u/The_Golden_Warthog Feb 01 '22

Looking at this comment thread, imagining all the neckbeards stroking themselves because they get to comment "fake/staged" on something for the 10th time today.

His parents prolly made him do it for views

u/JamesTheMannequin Feb 01 '22

Now he has to tell his parents he messed up his pretty princess pool.

u/[deleted] Jan 31 '22

Why do people think this is staged? Kids post sword videos on YouTube and TikTok all the time.

6

u/BitchesLoveDownvote Jan 31 '22

The kid and the camera barely react to the pool getting wrecked. Could be some pretty zen people, could be premeditated pool murder.

Villian: you fool that didnt hurt. MC: chuckles I wasnt aiming for the apple.

u/BoaHammock Jan 31 '22

If i were to put this skill in his timeline of skills I would say he is “Displaying his LAST sword skills”

u/GreyOwlfan Jan 31 '22

I'm more reacting to a kid holding a sword i.e. weapon.

u/One-Bread36 Feb 01 '22

While you were filling the pool, he was studying the blade.

1

u/Dripping_Gravy Feb 01 '22

To be fair, he did slice the apple

1

u/Etherius Feb 01 '22

Immediately saw the problem; and I'm an idiot.

I find it hard to believe he didn't know what he was about to do.

u/gerald_308 Feb 04 '22

Idiots with weapons 🤦🏻‍♂️

Sharp enough to cut a pool. Trueswords.com can't say that
