also the "Coq" (rooster) is the logo of France sportive teams...e.g. french rugby...

Watermark. The version without it would cost me 200+ euros.

Great vid, especially the slow motion :)

But.. Why is there a chicken in the background..?

[haveswordwilltravel]

The rooster is well known as a belligerent and proud combatant. Perhaps the film maker was comparing these fencing champions to fighting cocks?

Oops, I did not see schlager7's reply about the watermark.
