Why have I never seen this video in "OMG guys I'm so scared of how inhospitable Australia is threads". I mean it can work for both the agreeing and disagreeing sides.

 

[RangerBAD]

Blind date was the best

I want a blind date thread with links to blind date youtube videos!

Yeah, I remember this show. It was pretty funny.

 

[hwalker84]

This is incredible.

Get on it brah, Ioved that show.

 

[Grizzlyjin]

I'm going to guess that he was born under a different name...

Yeah I cringed hard when he started talking about the sword, and even harder when he talked about his 5 stage plan. It's like watching a live action Bleach.

But good on him for stepping in...maybe...I mean it sounds like he was about to disembowel someone for a fist fight haha

I still consider this the gold standard for cringe, however.

I thought this was the foam video. Holy shit this is cringe in it's most purest form.

This comment got me good. "This video is a powerful thing. If this were shown as a glimpse of 2015 to the Allied powers in WW2, fascism would've triumphed with ease."

 

[-Deimos]

Thank you for posting this.

 

[v1lla21]

Nah this guy looks legit as fuck like that ultimate arrow dude.

Thus reminds me of the time I went on a police ride along and there was a naked man with a katana.

 

[v1lla21]

Speaking of something that Mac from Always Sunny would do...

Lmao along with the optical pat down this shit is funny.

[SDBurton]

So glad to live in Tucson tbh

Oh snap a fellow Tusconan? A rare sight!

Not gonna lie, this was pretty boss. Props to him for even getting involved in that situation, as most people wouldn't have.

 

[Blargonaut]

 

[Forceatowulf]

Ahahahahaha This fucking guy.... jesus.

that twirl to sheathe was legit though. Not even gonna hate on that. Everything else was just... yeah... *sigh*

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

Yeah ya'll can shit on him for poor form or whatever but to the avg viewer I be the looked boss, I bet peeps think he is some skilled swordsman.

 

[Zeyphersan]

Please, continue

 

[Blader]

And then he smacks the hilt in and the cameraman drops dead.

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

Please, continue

I got nothing, I am done grandstanding.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Fuck you talking about OP?

Those are some sick moves.

 

[nateeasy]

The 5 step plan line reminded me of Mac from Sunny.

 

[todd360]

Good on him for stopping the fight. He had more balls than anyone else on that train.

He had a katana on a train. Its like having a shotgun with unlimited bullets on a train against unarmed people. Guy could have easily fucked up everyone on the train if he wanted. I wouldn't call that having balls.

Pretty much. It's easy to be brave when you start with the mindset of "I'm okay killing some people here today"

 

[Gambit 1138]

He talks even crazier than I do

 

[Speevy]

Practicing swordplay in the hopes of being a vigilante sounds exactly why most people do it

anyway I'm not sure how it makes him mentally ill when there's a whole bunch more people who put a whole lot of practice into using guns

If he were a stable person, he would have an appreciation for the history of the weapon he had been learning to use. He would have the sense to leave it at home and buy himself a firearm for personal defense.

If he ever stopped an assault by opening someone's chest with that thing, he'd have his own chest ventilated with police gunfire.

I would hope that there's not a a sword instructor who would instruct their students to board a train with a large blade. Even Hattori Hanso kept his damn swords locked away.

 

[Phreaker]

"gape him open" okay

 

[CosmicGroinPull]

Well, if you're going to have a person slightly off in the head, running around with a katana, just be glad he has a hero complex.

See, anime is good for you after all.

Also, his sword's handle wrap is worn as hell, doesn't look like it provides a reliable grip.

 

[Exr]

Would have been cooler if he killed those people.

 

[Elfforkusu]

The great ones are all a little bit crazy.

 

[Joyful]

He's like Mac from Always Sunny! But in real life!

Can't get enough, I hope this guy goes places.

lol exactly what i thought of when he said he had a 5 stage plan

 

[Mass One]

Would have been cooler if he killed those people.

 

[jstripes]

What sort of disturbed individual carries a sword in public?

Ever been to an anime convention?

 

[fallengorn]

He's the weeaboo Arizona deserves.

 

[Gambit 1138]

Kairo Seijuro is a pretty rad name. Im gonna use it as my next screen name

 

[CadetMahoney]

wasn't there a black anime cosplayer who was shot by cops for having a sword?

 

[Speevy]

Yeah, but he was a cosplayer. Totally different from this guy.

 

[Polari]

Man they write some pretty good dialogue for Mac in It's Always Sunny, but in this case reality beats fiction.

 

[PirateKing]

Can't stop laughing

jesus

fuck it

I'm out

I came to this thread expecting some cringewortthy stuff OP provides.

I leave this thread reading cringeworthy posts (OP included) and remembering a cool guy who probably lives a more fulfilling life than most who posted in this thread.

Personally I prefer to use my bare hands in a fight but swords are solid in my opinion.
More power to him that he is not only skilled in his art, but also that he is confident and clear about himself.

 

[MikeDip]

That sword twirl is awesome what are you talking about

Will you feel the same way the first time he gets shoved and decapitates someone?

Because there is absolutely nothing in that video that indicates he knows how to show restraint when threatened.

Confident and clear about himself wanting to fucking murder people on a train

Sir, you have not seen Foam Adventure.

[abstract alien]

Lmao, this guy is awesome. Has more personality than most of the people complaining about him, I'd bet.

 

[Subpar Spatula]

That doesn't make any sense. In the video he knocks away the hand trying to take the sword and keeps his composure. If he didn't have restraint he would have started swinging.

 

[Speevy]

Let's try this and pretend he had a gun.

I saw a father slap his son across the face today. He was violently shaking the child, so I pulled a gun on him.

Had the raised his hand again, I would have shot him ten times in the head. Anyone who tried to intervene would have died too. I don't care. My parents couldn't handle me. I'm so good at shooting people in the head with guns.

Sounds awesome, right?

sounds like arizona.

I'm talking about his personal take on the whole situation. Anyone who talks about the use of weapons like swords would be responsible in saying that they're very dangerous and should only be wielded by those who are trained.

He wanted to kill two people who weren't threatening anyone's life. It was a fight.

His lack of restraint comes from his thoughts. He would find himself in prison if he had done what he wanted to do.

 

[speculawyer]

Those fear-mongering chirons . . . wow.
