7:08 pretty sure that one day, one rope's gonna fail and the axe will fly in the audience.

@bhayden73 haha :D it is called 'tameshigiri', a common practise in kenjutsu and it's supposed to simulate the density of a human neck.

usually it's a bamboo-stick (= the column) with moist tatami (rice-straw mats = the flesh) wrapped around it.

When your cutting technique is right, the sword should go easily through.. if not, the sword will get stuck somewhere halfway.

@Ozzy2817 can see black sillouhettes really easily. since the camouflage patterns werent discovered yet. they might have uses 'ghillie suits' though, and in the uploaders case, he is wearing something which people expect of what a 'Ninja' would look like.

[inazumaninjutsu]

@Ozzy2817 Honestly I doubt they were used by ninjas. But somthing similar was used by Samurai's to define clans and groups. Ninjas didnt have any uniforms or tags just because there uniform was what farmers or swordmakers wore so they infiltrate easily. I doubt anybody would pass unnoticed if you wore a full black suit and a blaclava. Altoughh in some cases they did wear the legendry black suit for stealth night missions and the suit actually was dark blue because when the moon is shining you ..

@zackrosario yea. but the ancient ninjas ar now called Special Operations or Special Forces.
