Watch a Samurai Slice a Baseball in Half That is Traveling at 100MPH!

If you’ve ever been to a batting cage, you probably realize it’s pretty hard to make good contact with a baseball traveling at 80-90mph.

Now try slicing a baseball clean in half traveling at almost 100MPH.

Japanese swordsman Isao Machii stood 30 feet away from a pitching machine, and after taking a few pitches to line up his swing, he swings his sword quickly in the blink of an eye to slice a baseball in half on the third try.
