Speed Of Fencing

Fencing is a severely underrated sport in my opinion, severely neglected for reasons I fail to comprehend... Its legalized sword fighting, where the hell else do you get to see something like that? Fencing was one of the only reasons I'd tune in to the Olympics every year, to see master class fencers go at it in multiple bouts. The video above does an amazing job showcasing the beauty of a bout using Epees, one of three weapon types possible in fencing. Thanks to Greg, a national level fencer himself for submitting this gem. After having watched a few episodes of Game Of Thrones, I find myself twice as inspired to go sign up for some classes myself. Hell yes.
