It's like "Let the Bodies hit the Floor", only classier.

I was expecting country music. Maybe something by Mark Collie.

When the producers of the first UFC were trying to come up with an idea for a ring, one of the options they were actually considering was an electrified wall. They dropped the idea when the doctors they consulted told them that there was a big risk that a fighter might have a heart attack, especially if he's exhausted and sweaty.

That being said, watching that video gave me a huge erection. In fact, I think I feel inspired enough to go through with my sledgehammer-dueling idea.

Edit: I like how at the end of the interview, he says that viewers shouldn't try Shockfighting at home, but if they do they should send their videos to him.

YouTube- Tom Cody vs Raven

I'm also fairly certain that shock fights are a hoax.

It was certainly...Shocking!

Not my cup of tea though.

P.S. Phrost, the guy in your gif has been announced as the new Zatoichi. Funky, huh?

The current Shock Fights Champion...

I'm going to call BS on this. The guy is just chewing the scenery way too much in the interview. IMO, this is probably a parody of the Bumfights videos and similar...

I hope that the media picks this up, like they did with Bonsai Kitten or Hunting for Bambi...
