    No doubt the dude shoots a lot, but seriously... Incredibly low draw weights, not terribly accurate and just plain gimmicky.

    How do you get "not terribly accurate"? He hits every target, including arrows being shot at him. Seems pretty accurate to me.

    His targets are enormous for their relative distance he's shooting from. In demonstrations I shoot aspirins at 15 yards with my bow - I hit about 90% of them (they're stationary of course), and I'm good but not amazing. You compare that to the size of the targets he's shooting at and his distance is about 10 feet.

    Where you running as you hit these aspirins? His point is that his archery is usable in a real battle. His skill is in warfare not target shooting.

    The arrow he splits on the knife edge is a flat faced piece of bamboo he fletched, he did it from a very close distance and he admits (in other interviews) it took many takes. Honestly, he's decent, but the level of notoriety this video has led to is nowhere near commensurate with the skill level and practically he's demonstrated.
