Fluorescent Tube Fighting



These men are beating each other senseless using fluorescent tube light bulbs as weapons. This is apparently a sport in Japan. I can't find much information about it online, so I take it that it is not a widely popular sport. One blogger said "It's like WWF meets WTF." -- which seems like a good summation. There are more pictures at the link. Content warning: graphic violence.

Unbelievably stupid. These people are contaminating the area with mercury.

This is serious stuff.

Those things are filled with mercury. Hmm... good idea, let's get all scratched up and have mercury vapors seep right into the open wounds. Actually... It probably seems like an increasingly good idea, the more you do it! >:P

Bloody picture IS bloody. Neatorama posts such great stuff, it's unfortunate the odd post isn't suitable for kids or those of us easily squicked.

Pro wrestling.. gotta love it.. and yes it is NOT good to get the murcery vapors in your wounds, one of the concerns of doing this. But hardcore wrestling is insane.. found a video of a guy taking a weedwacker to the stomach...
