And that brings 0:00:25.000 --> 0:00:28.840 us into my next question, which is what's up? 0:00:31.360 --> 0:00:34.880 Not a whole lot. I'm just finishing up a little 0:00:34.880 --> 0:00:35.720 bit of work in my shop. 0:00:38.120 --> 0:00:43.239 Is there anything in particular you wanted to talk about today? 0:00:43.440 --> 0:00:47.280 No, I not particularly. I'm a blacksmith. 0:00:47.840 --> 0:00:50.440 What what's going on as a blacksmith? 0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:58.800 So right now I'm fixing armor. I'm in a group 0:00:58.800 --> 0:00:59.920 that does armored combat. 0:01:01.280 --> 0:01:05.479 You're in a group that does armored combat, Yes, sir, 0:01:06.520 --> 0:01:09.680 Like you and a bunch of your boys get together 0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:14.120 and take and fucking smack each other with actual swords. 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:17.360 So it's an access. 0:01:17.920 --> 0:01:18.640 Really does that? 0:01:18.640 --> 0:01:18.680 Like? 0:01:19.000 --> 0:01:20.479 Can you not like get killed doing that? 0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:26.680 I mean, I guess you probably could, but it's the sport. Like, 0:01:26.720 --> 0:01:28.480 so all the weapons have to be blended and make 0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:30.600 an only way like a certain amount. 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:34.160 All these sorry, so the swords and the knives and 0:01:34.160 --> 0:01:39.640 in the axes that are all blunt. No knives. Okay, 0:01:39.680 --> 0:01:42.039 so the swords and axes, they're all blunt. 0:01:42.319 --> 0:01:45.920 The rules of the sport are you can't stab, so 0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:50.440 you can't trust. You can't intentionally hit somebody in the 0:01:50.480 --> 0:01:56.200 dick behind the knee, strike vertically down the spine or 0:01:56.480 --> 0:02:00.200 the back portion of the head. But aside from that, everything's. 0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:03.880 Really okay. Do people get like really hurt doing this? 0:02:04.720 --> 0:02:04.960 Yeah? 0:02:05.000 --> 0:02:11.440 Oh yeah, have you hurt doing this? No? Fortunately, what 0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:12.119 were you about to say? 0:02:12.120 --> 0:02:14.519 I know I was gonna say. I know a guy 0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:19.200 that broke his arm. He blocked an act shot, stuck 0:02:19.240 --> 0:02:21.320 his arm up and it shattered his arm. 0:02:21.680 --> 0:02:22.360 Jesus Christ. 0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:26.520 A lot of guys blow their knees out acls because 0:02:26.520 --> 0:02:28.960 the armor weighs like seventy pounds. Its heavy. 0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:29.200 Shit. 0:02:30.200 --> 0:02:34.400 You know, you step wrong, and you know you're you're 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:38.480 in like a judo throw. You step wrong and every 0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.160 single tendon in your knee explodes. 0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:48.440 Now, what do you think it is that inspires most 0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:52.000 of the people who join this sport to join this sport? 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:54.360 Autism? 0:02:54.639 --> 0:02:56.440 One hundredercent serious. 0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:59.360 A little bit, yeah, yeah? 0:02:59.760 --> 0:03:03.320 Why what is the what is the link between autism 0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:05.959 and armored combat? In your in your brain. 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.360 Well so so, I mean, and it's a little bit 0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.840 of a joke, but only a little bit. It's a 0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:16.680 lot of nerds who are also athletic enough and like 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:19.200 want to do like a physical sport. 0:03:23.680 --> 0:03:26.400 But why not? But why not? Just like like why 0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:29.680 not basketball or wrestling? Why armored? 0:03:29.760 --> 0:03:31.480 Come you can't use a axe? 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.320 Yeah, that's true. Yeah, that's a dumb question of me 0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:35.800 to ask. 0:03:35.960 --> 0:03:38.360 Of course, Well, that wasn't a dumb question. 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.000 No no, no, no, no no no no, no no no, 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:42.760 let's get this straight. That was a dumb question of 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:47.360 me to ask you because of course, of no, no, 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.080 all right, we're not being kind to ourselves. That was 0:03:49.080 --> 0:03:53.320 a dumb question. Of course, we want to play the sword, 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:57.280 to play the game with the sword and the acts. Okay, 0:03:57.680 --> 0:04:01.760 it was dumb of me to even suggest to even 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:04.440 wonder why people wanted to get into this because we 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.960 want to hit things with swords. We want to kill 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:12.680 each other, but not Actually, that's why people play video 0:04:12.680 --> 0:04:15.000 games so that they can practice killing each other without 0:04:15.040 --> 0:04:18.000 the death. And this is a bit of a step up. 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:22.960 Yeah it is. Have you ever hurt someone seriously doing this? 0:04:23.960 --> 0:04:24.320 Yes? 0:04:24.839 --> 0:04:27.160 Yes? And I and I cried after it because I 0:04:27.200 --> 0:04:29.000 am at the end of the day, I am just 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:33.479 a little guy. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, I blew someone's I 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:37.279 didn't blow me out, but he couldn't walk for like 0:04:37.360 --> 0:04:43.880 an hour afterwards. I he was he was bent over 0:04:43.960 --> 0:04:47.680 and I chopped just above his knee and and it 0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.520 shut his leg off and he just went down. 0:04:51.040 --> 0:04:52.920 Holy fuck. He was he all right? 0:04:53.000 --> 0:04:55.559 Yeah after a while, Yeah, he was fine. 0:04:57.880 --> 0:05:00.080 Do you play a lot of like high fantasy shit. 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:02.000 A little bit? 0:05:02.440 --> 0:05:04.120 I mean, I'm into like Lord of the Rings, but 0:05:04.160 --> 0:05:09.120 aside from that, I'm not super I kind of feel 0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:11.400 like an outsider a lot of the times because I'm like, 0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:14.560 I'm not huge into Warmammer forty K or anything like that, 0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:15.560 and it was pretty common. 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:19.960 It's kind of funny that you just said you feel 0:05:20.000 --> 0:05:22.800 like an outcast because you're not into Warhammer. 0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:30.960 Yeah, that's what I mean. Like a little bit of 0:05:30.960 --> 0:05:36.000 the autism is like it's it's an important feature, and 0:05:36.120 --> 0:05:40.640 the Blacksmith thing is kind of my like hyper focus, 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:44.520 but with most of the other fighters, it's D and 0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:48.279 D and Warhammer and whatever else. 0:05:48.800 --> 0:05:51.359 I respect the people in this sport because yes, Warhammer 0:05:51.440 --> 0:05:55.880 and D and D are traditionally very nerdy, but to 0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:57.840 take a step up and be like, no, let's actually 0:05:57.920 --> 0:06:00.800 fucking quit being a pussy and take up an axe 0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:03.760 and fight me like, that's awesome to me. 0:06:04.279 --> 0:06:10.080 It's it's something. I was on the the American team. 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:14.080 We represented the country for the international competition in Mexico 0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.160 this year, the first time in Mexico. 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:19.400 And Mexican sword fighting. 0:06:20.640 --> 0:06:21.000 Sort of. 0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:23.880 Yeah, that's badass, keep going, tell me the story. 0:06:24.839 --> 0:06:28.320 So there are so within the sport it's blueherd or 0:06:28.360 --> 0:06:33.320 armored combat. There are dual categories, and then there are 0:06:33.360 --> 0:06:36.360 the group fights. So the group fights are broken up 0:06:36.400 --> 0:06:40.360 by five on five, ten on ten, twelve on twelve, 0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:41.320 sixteen on sixteen. 0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:49.200 Yo a six like sixteen on sixteen giant fucking sword fights. Yeah, 0:06:49.320 --> 0:06:50.080 that's sick. 0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:54.320 Yeah, So I was. I was on the sixteens team. 0:06:55.360 --> 0:06:56.280 You know, we fought it. 0:06:56.520 --> 0:07:00.520 There was a qualifying event beforehand. The best first and 0:07:00.560 --> 0:07:04.080 second teams made five and ten, and then third and 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:08.400 fourth place work together to do the sixteen. I was 0:07:08.400 --> 0:07:15.840 on the sixteenth team. We smoked smoked them, America. I 0:07:15.840 --> 0:07:17.720 don't think there's a single category where we didn't bring 0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:18.200 home gold. 0:07:19.120 --> 0:07:23.240 That's so sick. Yeah, did it so sixteen on sixteen, 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:24.880 does that feel like three hundred? 0:07:25.400 --> 0:07:25.480 Like? 0:07:25.520 --> 0:07:27.480 Does it feel like a like tell me more? 0:07:28.400 --> 0:07:32.960 Yeah, Well, it's five on five, not to change five 0:07:33.000 --> 0:07:35.200 on five. It's a whole different game to where it's 0:07:35.880 --> 0:07:38.640 you know, you can count how many people you have 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:41.040 to deal with. It's like you're in the one corner, 0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.640 you're looking at two guys and then there's a third 0:07:43.760 --> 0:07:46.800 that'll be on your right. Sixteen on sixteen, it's a 0:07:46.880 --> 0:07:51.400 wall of men, and if you get in a bad spot, 0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:54.720 the rest don't stop it because they can't get to you. 0:07:56.640 --> 0:08:00.240 So in the five on five, if you so you 0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:02.160 know all your boys go down, you're the only one up. 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:05.920 If the enemy team has three up, they'll call it 0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:07.840 there just because you're not going to win a three 0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:11.880 on one, you're just gonna get broken. In the six teams, 0:08:12.080 --> 0:08:14.760 that's not the case. So you can have three on 0:08:14.760 --> 0:08:17.760 ones everywhere and they're not going to stop it. 0:08:19.400 --> 0:08:25.040 Has anyone ever successfully as one man defeated three others. 0:08:24.920 --> 0:08:29.400 I'm sure. I don't know if it's happened to where 0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.400 the three were actively fighting at the same time, but 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:36.560 I'm I mean, I know guys that have sweat the 0:08:36.679 --> 0:08:39.040 entire like the entire team before. 0:08:39.480 --> 0:08:44.880 That's so cool. Now, normally, in a traditional sword fight 0:08:45.200 --> 0:08:48.400 that I think of when there's like a war, you 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:53.520 beat your opponent when they bleed out and die. Yes, 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:58.400 And I assume it's not like that in these competitions. 0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:01.000 How do you tell this to feed your opponents? 0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:06.120 So when so in the groups, when you go to 0:09:06.160 --> 0:09:09.360 the ground, you make three points of contact, you were 0:09:09.440 --> 0:09:13.480 out because historically the way you kill a nite is 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:15.080 you put them on the ground and you stick your 0:09:15.080 --> 0:09:17.600 bodykin through the gaps in his armor and stab them 0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:23.840 to death. It's so because the sport is actually based 0:09:23.840 --> 0:09:26.720 off of tournament fighting. So you've got jousting on one side. 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:32.360 There was a a foot and side of that to 0:09:32.360 --> 0:09:35.160 where they were armored fighting with blunted weapons, and when 0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.360 they went to the grounds that was considered they're killed. 0:09:38.040 --> 0:09:42.719 You keep fighting, So. 0:09:42.880 --> 0:09:44.880 This is really just like a You have to knock 0:09:44.920 --> 0:09:48.880 them down using your weapon, either. 0:09:49.080 --> 0:09:52.760 Either by successful there's there's a lot of judo that 0:09:52.800 --> 0:09:57.560 goes into it, or pain submission to where you you 0:09:57.640 --> 0:10:00.800 hit the marginals that they give up go or you 0:10:00.840 --> 0:10:02.720 break their armor to the point where they can't keep fighting. 0:10:04.679 --> 0:10:06.640 So I got a question. Are you jacked? 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:08.120 Mmm? 0:10:09.360 --> 0:10:13.280 No, at six one, two hundred and fifty pounds, I'm 0:10:13.840 --> 0:10:15.640 in corn fed, but I'm not jacked. 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:21.120 Okay, are you like are you like strong guy? 0:10:21.920 --> 0:10:22.840 I wouldn't say so. 0:10:25.200 --> 0:10:27.920 How do you usually do in these tournaments? 0:10:28.600 --> 0:10:36.880 Fairly well? Fairly well? I mean I haven't been injured before, 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:40.160 and I've been on a lot of winning teams. But 0:10:40.600 --> 0:10:42.400 there's there's always improvement to be made. 0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:46.600 What's your life like outside of armor battling. 0:10:49.200 --> 0:10:51.880 So, like I said, I've I've got a forge. I'm 0:10:51.880 --> 0:10:55.440 a kind of a blacksmith on the side, have done 0:10:55.440 --> 0:10:58.840 that for a while, and part of that is to 0:10:58.840 --> 0:11:02.840 support it. It's make armor, fixing the other teams, like 0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:08.200 the the my local team's armor. But I work in 0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:09.640 an iron foundry from a day job. 0:11:11.120 --> 0:11:13.760 You working? You work in an iron factory for your 0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:14.240 day job? 0:11:15.559 --> 0:11:17.080 Yeah, iron foundry? 0:11:18.240 --> 0:11:19.120 What is that? What is iron? 0:11:20.640 --> 0:11:24.880 We melt steel and chrome irons to make big like 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:30.760 pump casings, big big industrial parts like the like the 0:11:30.760 --> 0:11:37.280 factory on Giannosis, the second Motor Earth Sorry Star Wars 0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:42.600 mm hmm, like going through the Droid factory ship like that? 0:11:43.559 --> 0:11:48.439 Do any women play the armored Battle. 0:11:49.400 --> 0:11:51.400 Yeah, yeah, there are women's teams. 0:11:52.000 --> 0:11:55.280 Are there are? There's not men versus women's teams, So 0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.040 there's women versus women's. 0:11:57.720 --> 0:12:05.280 Teams, women versus women. There aren't as many, but there 0:12:05.320 --> 0:12:08.360 still are some and they are tough. 0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.520 All right. So you said that there was an international No, 0:12:11.600 --> 0:12:13.240 go ahead, Sorry, I want to let you finish your thought. 0:12:13.240 --> 0:12:17.160 Actually no, I I was you said, this is an 0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:23.199 international competition and America one, America USA. Let's go. What 0:12:23.240 --> 0:12:26.120 who is number two? Can I guess? 0:12:28.240 --> 0:12:33.640 I guess we're gonna guess? 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:34.280 Yeah? 0:12:34.280 --> 0:12:45.520 Hold on Swede?

And you know, you know, 0:18:24.680 --> 0:18:26.400 it's not even like shitty jewelry, like I could make 0:18:26.440 --> 0:18:28.160 like a bead, I couldn't. I was about to say 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.400 I could make a bead necklace, but I couldn't even 0:18:30.440 --> 0:18:30.760 do that. 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:34.880 So you're kind of being harsh with yourself, sir. 0:18:35.760 --> 0:18:41.640 No, I'm not. I'm being honest. I could not make 0:18:41.640 --> 0:18:43.600 a bead necklace. I've not. I have not said a 0:18:43.640 --> 0:18:48.520 single harsh thing about myself that wasn't true. 0:18:49.560 --> 0:18:51.800 When has when's the last time you made any jewelry? 0:18:51.840 --> 0:18:52.840 When's the last time you tried? 0:18:53.160 --> 0:18:55.600 Never in my life?

I cannot 0:19:18.600 --> 0:19:22.000 deadlift two hundred pounds. I cannot make a bead necklace. 0:19:25.440 --> 0:19:27.840 I think I would give you more rooms if if 0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.280 you knew you couldn't do it, But you haven't done it, 0:19:30.320 --> 0:19:33.600 so you're don't know. Harsh maybe isn't the correct word 0:19:34.119 --> 0:19:34.520 if you. 0:19:34.600 --> 0:19:38.280 Like that's like, that's like I can't do a kickflip 0:19:38.280 --> 0:19:40.360 on a skateboard. 0:19:41.040 --> 0:19:43.160 Well a lot of people can't do that. 0:19:43.560 --> 0:19:47.320 Well, well, hold, so why why? Why is that different 0:19:47.359 --> 0:19:49.760 from me saying I can't make a bead necklace. 0:19:53.160 --> 0:19:57.800 Because I don't think a bead necklace is super complicated. 0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:00.720 That's because you make swords and ring That's because you're 0:20:00.800 --> 0:20:01.359 you white. 0:20:01.440 --> 0:20:04.040 I don't know how to make a necklace.

She's a celiac, so 0:21:32.119 --> 0:21:35.200 it is kind of a kind of a strange combination. 0:21:35.359 --> 0:21:37.960 She works with stuff that can technically killer. 0:21:39.920 --> 0:21:41.200 Are you allergic to anything? 0:21:43.320 --> 0:21:46.840 No, so the duality is lost on that. 0:21:48.240 --> 0:21:52.080 I'm going to take questions from our live twitch chat 0:21:52.880 --> 0:21:54.440 for you. You don't you don't have to, you don't 0:21:54.440 --> 0:21:56.320 have to read them. I'll just read them out to 0:21:56.400 --> 0:21:59.320 you if the twitch chat has any questions. But while 0:21:59.320 --> 0:22:07.080 I wait for the chad questions to come in, I'm 0:22:07.080 --> 0:22:08.359 gonna ask you one more question. 0:22:09.800 --> 0:22:10.200 Go for it. 0:22:11.359 --> 0:22:13.920 I'll try to think of one. Do you have a 0:22:14.000 --> 0:22:15.719 question that you want me to ask you? I hate that. 0:22:15.760 --> 0:22:17.440 Never mind, that's stupid. That's stupid thing to say. 0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:22.000 Again, you're being a little bit harsh. 0:22:22.040 --> 0:22:25.959 Why but I but it's okay. I would rather let 0:22:26.000 --> 0:22:29.159 me tell you something. I would sincerely rather live in 0:22:29.200 --> 0:22:34.560 the universe of truth then be night, then the universe 0:22:34.640 --> 0:22:40.960 of Sometimes you know, some questions are stupid, some things 0:22:41.520 --> 0:22:46.800 are bad, and some people such as myself, cannot do 0:22:46.880 --> 0:22:52.200 some things. I enjoy the truth of this universe right now. 0:22:52.280 --> 0:22:55.600 If I here's the thing, if I told you that 0:22:55.760 --> 0:22:58.920 I was like an idiot and I'll never achieve anything, 0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:01.000 and I just if I just really beat down on 0:23:01.080 --> 0:23:03.960 myself like I'm a person of no value when I suck, 0:23:04.119 --> 0:23:06.479 I'd be being harsh on myself. But I guess saying 0:23:07.040 --> 0:23:10.040 that was objectively saying what do you want me to 0:23:10.119 --> 0:23:15.080 ask you? Is objectively a stupid thing for somebody conducting 0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:18.639 an interview to say. And I believe that with full force, 0:23:19.480 --> 0:23:23.400 and uh, I stand by it. I'm allowed to make 0:23:23.440 --> 0:23:27.800 mistakes and still be good at doing this. But that 0:23:28.000 --> 0:23:30.000
