It's remarkable to see the slow motion video of the hardened steel of the katana splitting the soft lead bullets in half.

Not just the lead, but the copper metal jacket as well. The really cool thing is seeing the shrapnel from the split bullets hit the wall.

I like the video of a Desert Eagle .50 shooting pineapples

Would the same happen to human heads? Excellent...

It's really amazing that an ancient design like a katana is so incredibly strong... it really says a lot about the skill of Japanese swordsmiths.

Hey, I saw that in Japan.

It took 7 browning rounds to destroy that blade. The coolness.

The video(s) won't play for me. [Firefox] I wanna see the katana-bullet goodness!! /me cries

Edit:

The program is trivia no izumi. It's cool. I wanted to bring japanese broadcasting home with me.
