Just received mine in the mail, a quick review: surprisingly lightweight, very well balanced, comfortable grip, very smooth open/close action, and best of all, completely inconspicuous. There is nothing at all about this thing to indicate that it is anything other than a nicely made umbrella...until you've got a watermelon that needs cutting.
The punching bag scenes are separated and distinct because of the handles of the umbrella. This is done to demonstrate that whether with a hooked (crooked) or straight handle, the upper class has the power to control and dominate. This implies that the problem is systemic, rather than individual. Whether by crooked or honorable means, there can be no true equality or harmony between the wealthy and the poor.
This video is a commentary on classism. I think he's trying to say something about the state of violence in the modern world and how easy it is to cover our eyes by withdrawing into our umbrellas. A false sense of safety from the rains of injustice. Because the man is wearing a fine suit it's a commentary on the divide between the wealthy and the poor. The upper-class gentleman stands on the shoulders of the working and middle classes (the chairs), while supported by his own economic safety net.
It was 150 euros that I never, ever regretted. This umbrella is so awesome, the only thing it can't do is pull a sword out from. Nor would you need to- I can apply most of my half-swording techniques without hesitation.
All in all, a solid buy whether you swing it like a baseball bat or you actually have training.
Slices bad guy in half with the invincible umbrella, music starts and rain begins to fall. Casually opens the umbrella with back turned on corpse, slowly walking away, all the while never looking back.
ha ha i love this video...it's too funny. my best friend and i were reseaching new technology for a school project. we watched this at school and we laughed our butts off...we liked the watermelon part the best :P
yeah now we want one...the deal was that we pay 50/50 because it cost quite a lot of money
when we buy one we're gonna try the watermelon part lol
Just keep a firm grip when in windy weather...these are a bit pricey to get blown right out of your hand. The knob handle looks great. Wonder if u can remove it and load it with lead or some heavy filler.
+Solid handle you could use to knock out an ox. Looks harmless. Works fine as an umbrella. Great handle for hooking the opponent. Long enough to use as a cane when walking.
- Metal rods in the fabric; Metal bends. Synthetic flexy materials would have been nicer.
Not much weight near the tip. I'd like more weight there for extra impact.
In total: Money well spent. There's room for improvement but I'd buy it again and I recommend it.
u say it works as good as a cane but doesn't make u feel dumb carrying it??....what about here in SC on cloudless day?? ppl would look at u more for carrying an umbrella than a cane or walking stick....
this guy has issues he needs to work out... every time he beats the shit outta something, he thinks it's suddenly raining hehehe ummmmm..... i wanna buy one.
That is all well and good, but how does it handle a heavy gust of wind. Fighting off charging thugs is very very rare for me but a gust of wind has destroyed more then one of my umbrellas.
I notice the Philippine security squad use the ball end handle version, as does Mr Kurz in the photo on the plane. Any reason for this as opposed to the crook handle version? I'm wondering at the advantage of one over the other.
the point is:Not the quality of the umbrella, but the skill in using the umbrella to atrike that power transformed to object, leaving the re-action not laid on the umbrella.
Its never a simple thing, need hard training as self-defense.
The umbrella supports the two options of self-defence: fight or flight. Should you find yourself in an escalating confrontation, you can open up the umbrella and fly away like Mary Poppins. Real good stuff. I saw it on the Home Shopping Network with Suzanne Sommers.
Awesome. I train in a combat for of hand-a-half-sword and this would be perfect for defense...and why is it GBH. In Britain a reasonable level of self-defense is allowed, so if you get mugged at knife point..why not respond if your family is in danger. You can do this bagwork with any brolly... but just not twice :) it's not edged or really nasty. I mean you could maim with a biro if you were nasty enough.
If anyone used this umbrella for self defence they would be sent to prison for GBH... it is TOO strong to be used in self defence!!! Only reasonable force can be used in self defence,beating someone like he did to that punch bag would send the defeneder to prison,not the attacker....this product is ridiculous
why is this umbrella better suited to "self defence" than a normal umbrella?
If someone attacked me surely I could (self defend) hit them with any umbrella? I dont need an especially strong one that I can balance between two chairs and stand on to be able to hit someone with it do I?!!!
a regular umbrella would bend or snap in half. you could clobber as many guys as you needed to with this one. plus it hits with the force of a bat. it looks darn classy too.
this is amazing ... you can do all that w/ the umbrella AND stay dry while wearing black in a room full of sheets on the wall ... revolutionary, truly revolutionary
Make it bulletproof and you can take all my money
