Dante Update #5?
🕑 Added 2025-02-19 01:21:11 +0000 UTCWhat the fuck is up Dennys!
Sorry for the late update this week, it's been a busy one. We're well and truly through the looking glass in terms of the video, as I've reached 90 minutes of work this week, and sadly for me, still not showing any signs of getting closer to the end..
So the name of the video, "Dante, Dragons and The Death Touch", was because I had wanted to investigate both what happened to the black dragon fighting society, and the science behind the Dim Mak alongside Dante's story. This last weekend was mostly spent reading and writing about the DIM MAK. And let me tell you, if you thought the dim mak was all bullshit, well, you're more or less completely right and i wasted days reading a whole bunch of dim mak books in order to confirm what we all already knew.
It wasn't a total bust though, because I did find this book in which the author claims to have been a secret agent on the trail of a dim mak assassin who had killed dozens with his poison hand technique lmao... also please, please don't buy this book. Its terrible and all that cool shit is literally in one page and then its like 300 pages of dim mak tutorial nonsense.
Also spoiler alert, there is no science behind the dim mak, only bullshit and flim flammery.
I did have a cool idea of asking my coach if he'd like to record a clip for the video of his grappling versus my newfound dim mak skills, but i haven't gotten over the pre-cringe of even asking such a thing, so we'll see how that idea pans out.
But yeah it's been a productive week! The video is honestly gone on way longer than i ever expected and out of those 90 minutes, only maybe 20 are sidebars into the magical world of Black Belt magazine and the dim mak, the rest is all solid Dante material, and with probably still another half hour or so to go, so i reckon this will be close to a 2 hour video or so by the time it's done.
Anyway, that's it for this week, hopefully by next weekend ill be close to the penultimate update before this thing goes live.
Yours in dim mak,
Nap

I’m not even exaggerating, that book is as long as it is nonsensical lol

"300 pages of dim mak tutorial nonsense", what in the...? That's a whole lot of nonsense haha. Good job collecting all this obscure info!

well there's only two options, right? - he makes you feel deeply silly, which is just objectively good content - you get the first Dim Mak kill on video and earn the right to don a $30 ninja outfit for your trial and can spend the rest of your career writing ninja pulp erotica from prison there's no "lose" condition here
Napoleon
Oh he’s doing the music, didn’t I mention that?
Napoleon
I’m just worried I might actually cause a fatality here
voidcaaat
Oh god please ask your coach to pit grappling against Dim Mak With all this incredible literature you've been taking in, I think it might be *you* who is giving *him* an opportunity, here. Have you thought that maybe you'd be cheating him by *not* asking?

Does your instructor know that you’re NB?

It warms whatever is left of my cold, dead heart that some one gets that reference. This is why I like watching people get fucked for three.

with all the talk of ever increasing scope of a project i can’t help but think that tommy tallarico somehow ends up being involved in it

I got desentisized regarding youtube click bait titles but I would instantely click on "Dim Mak counter strategies". And you performing the Dim Mak-practicioner in Steven Seagal cosplay would be the cherry on top.
Evin Cashman
This is a pro-Film Flammery community Nap you know that 😂
Aimée Fung
Please film the clip with your coach. That would be such a treat 🤣 (I totally understand the pre-cringe though)
Chris Morgan
It's too bad you can't put out BTS videos and spare bits of crazy shit that doesn't make it into the final cut. Like how DVDs used to be in the golden era with all the bonus content
Allan Hutton
If dim mak is death touch what is dim sum?
Michael Crites
Your coach would be a fool to put his life in danger like that
DanDrako
I hope you ask your coach, that sounds like it would be hilarious to see!
McMatt
Totally looking forward to it.
