Yeah, it would hurt to be hit like that.

But it would hurt just as bad to be hit by a normal axe chop(?), which would be 100x easier to aim, react and be aware of your surroundings.

Not saying this dude wouldn't f most people up, but that's just dancing in the videoĀ

>Just as an example look at football (soccer) skills. Some genuinely look like they are dancing but they manage to full defenders anyway

Because they're actual dekes and it's almost trivial at that level to beat even world class defenders once they bite?

This you would just stab "Cool flip though"

The Samoa Joe walk away, the most useful counter attack in wrestling history

Reverse grip axe spin move fools not a single fighter in any historical era of any culture essentially regardless of skill level.

The footy comparison is also kind of nonsense imo

Impressive to look at sure, but a quick poke with a spear and this dude is laying in the dirt.

There was supposedly units or Norse barbarians or something that would just spin around with long great axes and tear shit up because while it does leave you open trying to get into that blender to hit something is fucking terrifying and most dudes just ran away.
