is it possible to be a shoeless butt-kicker?

ok... I am imagining myself as Bangrajan's deadliest bad-ass (I would probably not go with the full moustache look though)... swishing my double swords about so quickly that heads are rolling like bowling balls on a Saturday night at the local 10 Pin Paradise...

I kill about 50 dudes to make my way to the leader of the hated Burmese and right before I dispatch him with a double sword thrust, I step on a rock innocently sitting upon the battle field...

Since my village apparently spent all it's money on the nice swords we have, but didn't bother to buy, or make a single piece of manly footwear, or even a sandal... I screech in pain and begin hopping up and down on 1 foot, where I soon become easy fodder for the Burmese and within moments of my victory, my head rolls along with the rest of them.

very funny, beaver. i actually laughed out loud, and I could see it in my head as I was reading your post.

thanks... i dont know why my mind works like this but amidst all the chaos that this movie portrayed, I kept thinking... "ouch! how can you run thru the jungle without shoes! I can't even get my paper without stepping on something and hobbling about in pain..."

hmmm okie, i'll be the smartass.. First of all, those two annoying Hobbits in LoTR never wore shoes and they kicked ass. Shoes are overated. I'm from Indonesia and we still have tribes of people who are basically still in the stone age living deep inside the rainforests. These dudes never wear shoes. In the rainforest! in real life! with gigantic bugs and snakes and smelly monkeys trying to bite your ankles.

yeeps! I can't even stand to sit outside to eat with gnats swarming about... I don't think I'd last too long in the jungle.

Probably could last a while. Just remember your boots.

And remember tthey would have walked around barefoot everywhere. They're feet would have been like leather.

And the hobbits had hairy feet, top and bottom. But it still didn't save Sean Astin from from stepping on a splinter and getting an infection. ^^

They're used to the area. used to not wearing footwear.

they are warriors so they would be more muscular than what europeans are made of.

these dudes were tough and could handle anything.

yes there were snakes and alot of them would have died from that.

If your used to walk on bare foot, a simple rock wont even hurt you anymore, these guys probably have a few inch thick leather on the bottom of there feet just by walking barefoot all there lives.
Its the same with hands, if your doin hard work all day with your hands, you will get less and less injuries because the skin becomes tougher and tougher.
its hard to understand for us who are used to footwear but its just a simple fact of nature wich we rejected because its "civilized".

You should watch sometimes Discovery Channel before writing *beep* Maybe you'll learn something about life in the jungle and then you won't write such *beep*
