Oscar Wildcat - 2012-01-18 That's impressive, but really, isn't Agent Orange a more practical solution?
OxygenThief - 2012-01-18 I don't see how a punk band from the 80s could have done a better job.
fatatty - 2012-01-18 For someone who could explode my face with his shins he sure does sound funny.
spikestoyiu - 2012-01-18 Thais make a lot of odd noises while hitting bags and pads (and trees).

kingarthur - 2012-01-18 Thank you. I'm no botanist or biologist, but clearly the trunk is more "vegetable" than "wood". Still, he could probably kill me.
OxygenThief - 2012-01-18 One time I choked-out a potato until the light went out of its eyes.
spikestoyiu - 2012-01-18 It's a banana tree, so yeah.
Corpus Delectable - 2012-01-18 It's a banana "tree." They're actually not woody, as sweepings rightly notes. Rather, the trunk has a growth habit not unlike that of an onion, essentially a bundle of leaves wrapped around themselves.
PROTIP: When cutting a path through a thicket of Cuban Red bananas to get to the one you want to fell, do not attempt to slash through the trunk of a dead and rotting banana plant trunk, which is mostly air when the plant is alive. The accumulated rainfall that has drained into the trunk and putrefied to a high stench in the hot climate comes gushing out of the cut under the pressure of gravity in a remarkably effective spray pattern. Comical for others, but unpleasant for you. The more you know.

StanleyPain - 2012-01-18 One time I broke a celery stalk in half just because I could.
zerobackup - 2012-01-18 Tree or not, I would be afraid of that little muscle man.
Jet Bin Fever - 2012-01-18 I thought it said "Brokaw kicks down a tree".
baleen - 2012-01-18 That would have been superior kicking footage.
spikestoyiu - 2012-01-18 It's worth noting that the Japanese got so tired of Buakaw beating the shit out of their fighters in K-1 that they modified the rules in order to cripple one of muay Thai's greatest assets, which is the clinch.
sosage - 2012-01-18 The Japanese simply ran into a challenge and, like other great athletes throughout history, adapted their strategy to defeat that obstacle...with Microsoft Word and lawyers.
