The Boy Who Pwned

This one goes out to all of the Otaku who run to army surplus stores and randomly buy ninja weapons for no reason whatsoever. This is for you guys who day dream the school day away making up scenarios about bank robbers and terrorist attacks (ninja terrorist) that always end with you pwning noobs with a samurai sword, even if the enemy's equipped with semi-automatics.

Its finally happened, the day all those dreams come true has been upon us.
One weekday night a student attending John Hopkins University heard a noise in his backyard, having been robbed earlier that week he was aware of the possibility of another attempt.

Like any otaku would, he grabbed his samurai sword and went out to investigate the disturbance.

As he made his way towards the garage behind his house he noticed that its door had been opened. A man "lunged" from the darkness of the doorway and the student reacted in a way anyone, when being attacked by a veteran criminal (convicted for similar crimes nearly 30 times), would react.

Police say that the student swiped at the man if not once, no more than two times, and he bled to death on the spot.

Now, I wasn't there... but some small voice in the back of my head is telling me that the fight went somewhat like the one below, be sure to watch carefully for clues in this amazingly accurate reenactment made by the creators of Bleach.



Is'nt it just incredible what people can do with modern technology? I can't believe we can witness the entire act right there, almost exactly how it actually happened.

Personally I'm more of a tonfa fan myself, and since when you begin training you end up hitting yourself more than anyone else you know exactly what your enemy will be experiencing. Plus you don't run the risk of stabbing someone to death.

The facts in this post were ripped from an article at www.baltimoresun.com and the tonfa picture was taken from www.gungfu.com.
