This never would've happened to Bruce Lee.Seattle police say an intoxicated 25-year-old man, who told officers he believed he was a ninja, was impaled on a metal spike Monday night after a failed attempt to jump a 5-foot fence.View Larger MapAround 11:15 p.m., officers responded to the 600 block of Seventh Avenue after a 41-year-old man called police to say he had been assaulted, said police spokeswoman Renee Witt. Officers arrived and found the impaled would-be ninja, Witt said.It turns out the older man, who was heavily intoxicated, tried to go into a sports bar in the 600 block of King Street, Witt said. The younger man, who isn't a bar employee, barred the man from going inside-- and an argument between the two men escalated into a fight. At one point, the men chased each other in the street, she said.In an attempt to get away, the younger man "thought he'd basically be able to jump over this fence, and he didn't quite make it," Witt said. As a police account of the incident notes, "Clearly he was overconfident in his abilities." That's when the older man called police to say he'd been assaulted. As police arrived to search for a suspect, one officer heard the 25-year-old's screams and found him stuck on the fence with the metal spike jutting out from his buttock, Witt said. The man was bleeding profusely.He was taken to Harborview Medical Center, she said. Questioned at the hospital, the man told police he believed he was a ninja.Since the two men "were in the middle of the street, chasing each other around," Witt said officers determined neither man would be arrested on suspicion of assault.

I hate to say this but...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hi0cQ5ELdt4
I can see why suspicion of assault might be a bit weak, but can they be arrested on absolute certainty of being too stupid to run around unsupervised?
Ok, completely unrelated.I knew Bruce Lee was good. But HOLY CRAP!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9QHslHpK4-Q&feature=related
Yeah, except that sissy little baton doesn't crack your skull open when you get hit with it. Back in high school my brother and I both were taking Karate. I did learn some rudimentary staff techniques, but we both ended up gravitating towards the nunchucks when it came to weapons. Interestingly enough, we were the only students allowed to use the real nunchucks when doing our katas. Everyone else had to use the foam padded ones because they kept hitting themselves in the head. :)
Aight. I gotta post someone who is actually GOOD with a staff now.... :)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVw29NrEX3A&feature=related
