I'm sitting in my easy chair, surfing *and* watching a program in Discovery Times channel..."Martial Arts:The Real Story".
Lots of great stuff such as discussion with Jon Bluming, 10th dan in karate and 9th in judo, archival films of past masters, etc.
One section covered training at Fort Benning (why does that sound so familiar to me?) and at one point in their discussion about "fighting men", they had an old short clip of Ghurka in full attack mode, khukris high...
Damn frightening scene...even if it were staged or training!
If you get a chance to watch it, I think you will enjoy it.
