This will be a great reference to use in my comics, thank you!!

I just realized this is the first time I have ever seen two brothers sword fight each other.

[Raddosseuss]

the battle was over at second 00:09 clear headshot right there but he decided to step back his mistake

[jordyhi]

As soon as I saw them grab the blade I smiled. They knew what they’re doing

[Sweetleaf]

Me and my brother with our balloon swords when we were young:

The guy holding the longsword with both hands high up on the handle, spread out your grip more. It will give you much better control and speed.

[ossian]

how the hell are you holding your sword dude on the left? It's not a golf club.

[connorohare]

This is ideal, is it ok if I use this as a motion reference for an animated scene?

[ioannes-markusdevivar]

Por fin una buena coreografía realista de combate ❤

[xxdaniel]

better than the choreography in the Star Wars sequels

[HatiTheMoonChaser]

There are a couple of details here, very minor ones here mind you which show that a person was taught to swordfight quickly, but I think they are only visible because it's a totally white room with no distractions where they eyes can freely focus only on the players.

Frames I am talking about are 0:10 with the sword grip of the left guy, 0:14 with the arm position completely outstretched, the 0:17 hit to the hand because the sword bounced, 0:20 again with the sword grip of the left guy

But overall nice fighting sequence and like I said some very minor details

[ioanbugheanu]

Broadsword? Those would be considered longswords, and that grip with two hands wrapped over each other was painful to watch.

[robinlybaart]

Awesome choreo. Actually didn't expect such tight movements with that particular sword. Own it myself and for my taste it's way to heavy. Guess I'm just weak 😅

[chadbennett]

Great, just be sure to sperate the hand while holding the hilt. You'll get better range of motion and more control.

[maximomagno]

Perfect example of how NOT to pick up a sword

[xinzeng-iqzv]

throw in some dialogue and put it on youtube

[zakariyahajjaj]

David let’s do a scene other, specialise in scimitars and Roman spades,

[walrusknight]

why.... why are holding the sword like that please stop

[slr-sulik]

Might look great for an untrained eye, but cannot compare to the gracious and immaculate movements of actual swordmasters. Rather rigid and lacks flexibility, strikes consume a lot of strength but bear no power.

Still a good effort though. Keep up good work!

[ing.hemoroid]

Yes, just as real as any other hollywood sword scene.
Now imagine these guns get paid for this crap
