Black Belt question

Interesting and informative. Thank you. Personally, up until 3 or so years ago I had no interest in Japan or even Asia. That is when I signed up for Karate. So I am very ignorant.

Also, I was in the US Military in the 60's and lost a number of good friends in South Vietnam, and had some not good feelings from that era.

Shortly after reading Chris Parker's post, above, I was watching a video of Japan and I saw actual real Ninjas in Japan. Below is a link and time in the video where they show up:

One Ninja appears at 3:26-3:44 following the narrator
Three Ninjas appear at 1:37-11:00 notwithstanding being dressed in all black they are easy to spot.

I’ve seen men dressing up in red costumes and a fluffy white beard that doesn’t affirm the existence of Father Christmas, does it?

I posted my video of actual Ninjas with my tongue firmly in my cheek. Evidently it was not readily apparent.. My sincere apologies.

No it wasn’t. You believe in Ninjas and I’m suspecting you might be one

If only you could see the actual me, you would laugh. I am so far from having those skills. I guess, thanks for the compliment. LOL

There is a pic like that in the robe thread

The belt looks pristine just out from the belt factory, it hasnt seen action

Well for sure if they have to do a Ninja encounter at night, the guy will be lit up like a Christmas tree.
