6. Sure, I'd seen stuff like that from the Thai Acrobats before
But since each of those wrestlers weighs about as much as five of those acrobats, I was amazed at the physics of it!

2. Speaking as a former pro wrestler...
Yes, it is real.

Also, I could never ever do that in a million years. I was more of a "hit someone with a chair" kinda wrestler.

5. Considering the speech tonight, there is only once answer to that question.
Edited on Thu Jul-23-09 02:52 AM by RandomThoughts
"I'm trying to free your mind, Neo. But I can only show you the door. You're the one that has to walk through it."




"What is "real"? How do you define "real"?"

"If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."

"Have you ever had a dream, Neo, that you were so sure was real? What if you were unable to wake from that dream, Neo? How would you know the difference between the dream world and the real world? "

"What you know you can't explain, but you feel it. You've felt it your entire life, that there's something wrong with the world. You don't know what it is, but it's there, like a splinter in your mind, driving you mad."

"The Matrix is the world that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth."

"Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."






"This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back. You take the blue pill -- the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the red pill -- you stay in Wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes."
