Say what you want about YouTubers, but they sure know how to spend their money. We have seen before video stars on the internet invest their earnings in a relocated Battlebot a hovercraft bar a balloon that is way too big, and a grenade complete with the ATM in which it was thrownNow we have Allen Pan from YouTube channel Sufficiently advanced, a man who has decided to make the best use of his pandemic stimulus check is to buy a robotic exoskeleton so he can try to wield a giant anime-style sword.
In a video documenting this decision, Pan gets a welder to make a 50-pound sword, modeled after the sword used by Cloud in Final Fantasy VIISince the distribution of this weight makes it impossible for most non-cartoon people to actually use the thing with any kind of martial grace, Pan decides he needs a little help. So he buys a $ 900 used camera-stabilizing exoskeleton, the idea inspired by the powersuits that the characters in Edge of tomorrow, to manage his enormous sword.
Pan adjusts the suit to better absorb the extra weight, attaches a bungee cable to the center of the sword, and then is finally able to lift his absurd weapon well enough so that he can use it to control a television. defeat. . ‘I have the power of god and anime on my side! Pan shouts triumphantly.
Yet the sword is iis clumsy enough for Pan to use, even with his exoskeleton, that he decides to see how his ingenuity matches the natural strength of a big muscular man. He recruits a huge guy who manages to use the giant sword to crush watermelons, coconuts and an entire table with the knife.
Is this all ridiculous? Sure! But we think it’s much better for Pan to use his money and fame to explore ways we can all become brooding environmental terrorists ready to reclaim the planet from malicious companies than anything else some other YouTubers stand up
