These expert swordsmen got the crazy idea to duct-tape their camera to the tip of the sword and do some swings. It looks sick, and frankly could be a scene in a high end Hollywood movie. The effect is so simple, but so mesmerizing. The song You Spin My Head Right Round is oh so appropriate. All the action is in real time. I just love the whooshing sound.

One day, I will invent a time machine and go back years before anyone has thought of this, make a movie with this effect and become a millionaire.
I HIGHLY suggest you do not invent your time machine. If you do, it will cause you great grief and you will end up dying in a Georgia prison in 1931.
@irv, Are you… are you from the future? How do you know these things??
Do us a favor and find a tolerable soundtrack, too.
@Chip
I suggest making millions off of the time machine.
If i go back in time with your time machine i will just steal the technology making millions for myself.
This is awesome! I’d love to see this side-by-side with a regular video shoot, to see which moves they use to create these effects.
No dragon twister?
this is really cool, i’d like to see it with the camera turned 180 degrees
fake. He lets his hands off the sword at the end and the sword just floats there.
He’s still got one hand on the sword. So, not fake. Gawd it’s dumb home many people can’t just believe what they see anymore. *feeds trolls, yesyes*
@6 your an idiot he has one hand on the sword at the end
I hate it when people make remixes of good songs when no one that listens to that person knows the original. They think they’re reviving the song or some shit, they’re actually just killing good music.
It’s nothing but a headache inducing “dizzy-cam”.
Maybe for you, pussy.
meatspin owns that song. i hear it, or a remake of it and it’s meatspin all over again
I think it behooves us as citizens of the internet to remix meatspin with this new technology.
It would take a whole lot longer for your victim’s brain to process what they were seeing.
Your article perfectly shows what I needed to know, taknhs!
Neat effect, but I regret reading the description too quickly and expecting the good “Spin Me Right Round”… This new song is an abomination that’s painful to hear.
