Ok... that was fun. :p

I found it fun to shout out the cut & guards as they happened.

Cheers,

Great idea! That was a wild effect.

A little tough on the digestion and not recommended if recovering from eating or drinking too much but interesting as it looks like the sword is being held at the tip by someone very strong whipping around people trying to hold on to the handle of the sword: Feels a bit like the Universe turned inside out. ;) :lol:

I don't get dizzy easily, so that video did nothing to me in that regard. But it did impress me in other ways. Very nice idea! :)
