Incredible Fencing Duel

I recorded this on vacation. Two pirates at a dinner show in Orlando do an amazing sword fight.

@ginjaninja1988 If I assume your screen name contains your birth year as is common, that puts you at about 23 years old, and in your prime. If you can, find yourself a good old fashioned thespian of the classical stage and challenge him to a duel. Not with live blades of course, no point in bleeding. But, if you manage come out of it with less than 3 bruises/lumps to every one of his, I will concede the argument. And I'll settle for your word on the report of the match. Otherwise, I'm done.

I know its a show and all, but im dissapointed not to see blood... perhaps i belong in another century

obviously styled more for audience appeal, for the most opportunity to slash blade-to-blade, than as a display of 'authentic' shipboard battle. Any decent sailor or pirate would have dispatched the other guy with about a third of this flailing about. We should not compare this theater to actual combat fencing.

good but not incredible, look for Merlet Fencing Group... my masters ;)

[ohsnapitsniamhy]

there are bits where theyre just waving their swords but there are some fencing basics in there too

well done! great show! they have skill! I assume they have had fencing lessons. But as this is a show. not the same as a fight. but if you have no skill or training they would beat you. as far as a skilled fencer it is still up in the air we do not not know if they have fencing skill as a fighter, I would think they have so I respect their skill and say Thank you!

@cthulhuinsamadhi Actually he's on the left in the beginning. The other right! :)

I'm talking about guy in a white and blue tunic.

[cthulhuinsamadhi]

The pirate on the right looks like Guybrush Threepwood.
