Adult Swim:

A Russian woman who twirls swords in a lake and a Star Wars art show are just two of the wackiest videos uncovered by Adult Swim this week.

Of course, there are also the problems suffered by cats in the first world.

Not a swordsman, but studied a little kendo and western longsword. Notice that she twirls the blades in the direction of the flat of the blade. Nice looking, but I can't see how you would either attack or defend like this.

Looks like fun, though, and she sure is pretty.

If you don't slash anything and you don't stab anything, isn't it just baton twirling?

Evidence first. Believe later. Maybe.

Twirling blades does not make a person a good swordsman/woman. Study the samurai... the blade comes out and the enemy dies in a minimum of action. Looks good in movies, yes, but in reality the purpose it to dispatch the enemy in as few moves as possible.

Though, as an art piece that is really impressive.

Nobody wants to watch baton twirlers anymore.

Well, I wouldn't call her a swordswoman simply because nowhere in this video is there footage of her cutting.

Sword-Dancer would be more appropriate.

...Oh yes, and that is NOT an erection in my pants...>.>
