Compfused has some really interesting, dumb, entertaining, and educational videos. Here's a video clip (http://www.compfused.com/directlink/608/) where they pit a browning .50 caliber machinegun (I think it's a browning :D ) against a Katana.
At first it's no contest... but watch the vid all the way through... Slo-mo photography actually show some of the rounds being cut right in half. Really cool stuff. :)

I think we discussed this before.

Now, me personally...

I dont think I would try and chop a bullet.

:D

Even if you did, you would just have 2 projectiles going through you then.

my friend was saying that the bullets were actually full metal jacket bullets. i think they could have set up the machine gun with a better/more stable structure. i think if the angle and the positioning of the gun were more fixed and straight on, the katana would have lasted longer (considering gun vibrations/recoil), if not through the whole experiment. all in all, cool clip.
