Video is totally fake, no, i'm not one of those queers that just say everything is fake either. pay attention to the split in the screen, when the dude walks next to it, half of him disappears. watch :04-:05.
vintage, my apologies for not being clear. i actually LIKE when people develop skills based on doing what they love rather some mundane economic consideration. if you check my channel, you will see that i am a blacksmith who has spent a lot of time forging and throwing knives -- skills with no possible economic benefit. so, in this context, "useless" is a compliment. money is over-rated. i am looking forward to your next axe video...
i am glad this was cleared up. i used to throw axes in my misspent youth, which might be why i became a blacksmith. forging axes is as much fun as throwing them...
it is wonderful that there are people perfectly happy to spend countless hours developing a skill which is, from the perspective of a profit-career-money oriented society, completely useless. bravo. really.
Remind me to never have you forge any axe heads for me or any of the other 2.8 million timber sports contestants who use an axe... there goes your profit, better 'throat sing' for your supper now... boy.
i have nothing but respect for your skill. i will certainly not force you to use any of the woodworking tools i DO forge, even though i think they are pretty nice and people always seem to come back for more.
again -- it's good to work hard and make good stuff and get paid, but is is great to play hard for the heck of it, and screw the money. so again --"useless" is a compliment, as far as i am concerned, at least.
Throwing a full size axe with one hand is difficult...and it has a neet looking angular flight. I have done alot of one handed throwing in the past, but I have found that it is less consistant for me, also it causes to much damage to the muscles and joints if it is done repeatedly.
I have posted a video of me throwing one of my single bitted axes...I use about a 36 inch handle for my single bit axes, and lots of duck tape and padding at the handle near the head, simply because...
I have titled the video at 40 feet but it is actually longer so that it adapts to my throwing style.
I use double bitted axes when I'm in competition... and usually throw from 20 feet for the Timber Sports regulations.
I do alot of springboard chopping and actually grew up falling trees that way- when I was a young kid my father wouldn't allow me a chainsaw, but I still had to work, so he made me fall trees by axe and I learned alot.
you just know that the swedes are really all just crazy old vikings, suppressing the urge to raid your coastal cities, rape your churches and burn your women
He takes 12 steps to get back to the target... Not even close to 40 feet. Still badass though. Way better than anyone on here (myself included) could do.
Well actually under Swedish axe throwing rules the distance is defined from the center on the target to the throwers feet which means if you do the Pythagoras then along the floor to the taget is roughly 39.54 feet, Also this axe is a 2 /1/2 pound Swedish throwing axe with a 29 inch handle that has a natural amplitude of 1 rotation of 1 cycle per 20 foot , you can see that it makes 2 full turns , I have done it at 60 foot where it made 3 full turns but nearly ripped my arm out with the effort !

Yeah, I realised what you meant after I checked your channel... your comment did seem a little strange for someone that was a spike thrower.
Sorry about the misunderstanding.

Actually 'kalevraa', I have competed in axe throwing competitions my whole life, it is my 'HOBBY', AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE'S...
Why are you watching something useless... who is wasting their time, the guy throwing the axe, or the person watching someone else throw the axe ?
And actually there is money in it if you have a lot of skill...like myself !

Actually he takes 13 steps, and at 3 feet per step that's 39 feets, ofcourse at 2 feet per step its only 26 feet.
Still, he's the one with the axe, so it's his word we'll be taking ; )
GambleD13 3 years ago
It is probably close to 40 feet... In my video I am throwing from a little over 40 feet... but 40 feet sounds good.

no i think he was using a mirror and with some physics knowledge he could calculate a good angle to reflect and so the camera wont be hit
