FWS - episode 05 Playlist for the series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLxClq4a6GD73kaPeAWbchwwixKl7z1oFS Cloud Strife's giant sword from Final Fantasy, one of the most requested blades for my series. It's obviously ridiculous in its extreme size, but I wanted to take it a step further and bring up actual proof that it would be physically impossible to fight with, even assuming superhuman strength. Thanks to my friend Black Silk, a physicist and martial artist who kindly provided the calculations and explain things to me in a way that even a complete layman can understand. https://www.youtube.com/user/blacksilkblacksilk In short: Centrifugal force is a bitch. :) As much as I loved FF7 as a game, but that sword is just silly. And the same goes for the monstrosity that Guts wields in Berserk, the Dragonslayer. As well as other such over-sized swords, unless they are made of super-light materials or magically lightened. But even then, why make them so freaking large?
