Those that are the most sucessful are also the biggest failures. The difference between them and the rest of the failures is they keep getting up over and over again, until they finally succeed.

The guy who conducted my CCW class is famous for a trick shot he does that's similar. He posts an axe, head up and edge toward the shooter. He places two glass bottles or gourds back and to the left and right of the axe. Fires, and splits the bullet on the axe striking the two targets behind the axe...usually to spectacular effect.
The shot I saw him take, and make, was placing a playing card from a deck with the thin side facing him. He took two shots, and the second split the card in two.

Saw that demo on Japanese TV. Japanese TV is generally nearly as bad as American, but they have cool stuff on sometimes.

There's nothing better to do in Kentucky than attempt crazy trick shots...

I'll make the obligatory retarded comment....see that's why TMA is better than guns...If someone shot at me I could just chop the bullet in half...after doing that 6 times, I could use my sword to kill the attacker while he tries to reload his puny mortal weapon.

Japanese tv is a lot worse than western tv.

This is cool. I saw another demo with a machine gun on TV one time.
but...
This really does not prove much.
The halves of the bullet would still hit the swordsman.
How many other swords did they test? Could a decent quality kitchen knife do the same?

IMO, American TV is the worst on the planet (bearing in mind I've only seen substantial bits of Australian, American, British, Irish, Japanese and French, so I haven't exactly sampled a lot!).
Actually I've just watched that clip and the show I saw was way cooler... maybe it was the same as the one you saw Monkey. They did test against a kitchen knife first and the knife broke (well they said so anyway, but they didn't show it because the main bit was reserved for the katana). They first tested a small handgun of some sort, then a 357, then a rifle of some kind, then finally a machine gun (it looked bigger than an M16 and seemed to fire longer and faster but I've no idea what it was). The 357 dented the blade wee bit, as did the rifle, and the machine gun broke it in a few seconds, but it had been hit by maybe ten bullets first, and it did have some major chunks out of it.
It was sweeet!

Goemon Ishikawa used to do it all the time...even against multiple shooters.
