I was browsing YouTube a week or so ago, and somehow came across a great series of sword fighting techniques. My initial reaction was to chuckle at anyone who learns how to wield a sword off of YouTube videos, then I had a humbling realization: I’m actually kinda familiar with some of these techniques, and my teacher? Highlander: The Series.
Just for the record: I don’t mean that I’m actually anywhere near qualified to get in a sword fight with someone, unless it’s me with my Duncan MacLeod katana fighting shadow Immortals in my apartment, but when it is me fighting invisible people? Yeah, I got some moves.
(For my money, this is the best sword fight of Highlander’s six year run).
