That is intense and badass.

One of my favorite movies is Rob Roy. Many times I’ve meditated on how humans used to fight to death 1 on 1 with swords and how unfathomably intense those fights must’ve been. 

Closest I’ve ever been is just a fist fight and even that your mind enters a pretty remarkable state of instinctual clarity and focus. Facing a sword on the other side would ramp that up by 100x. Crazy shit.
