There are some interesting asides about “nunchuks” (Nunchaku) that are amusing. With rather nebulous origins in Okinawa, it is popularly thought to have been invented as a flail used to thresh rice or soybeans. However, in a very amusing note:
“Peasant-origin nunchaku proponents also suggest these innovators were not so much rebellious as attempting to be capable of a surprise defense against overzealous tax collectors’ visits gone bad, or other perilous scenarios for which they were otherwise perpetually unarmed.”
Sounds familiar.
In any event, when used properly the action of nunchaku is not disputed, as its motion creates impressive force delivered to a very small area, which can produce significant injury.
The same can be said for a bullet.
