The entourage of the Philippine president, Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo, has an unusual secret weapon. Her security team defends the head of the government with umbrellas. Not ordinary umbrellas, but unbreakable fighting umbrellas. Watch the video to see the combat-brolly in action, and marvel as Thomas Kurz ("the world's foremost expert on flexibility training") viciously splits a watermelon in two.
The Philippine Secret Service are rightly pleased with their $180 umbrellas, and it appears that the news travels fast in the elite world of presidential bodyguards, as we see in this testimonial:
Your product is simple and affective as we saw in your video. I can carry it everywhere. Many other agencies wanted to know where they could purchase this umbrella.
Even better is this from another satisfied customer:
I would like to take a moment to tell you how happy I am with my new umbrella. Having been a martial artist for over 30 years I have always wished to find a umbrella that could stand the strain of being used in a true self-defense situation. Your umbrella has answered that call and more!
And finally, from Tim Schmidt, a writer of a website dedicated to carrying concealed weapons:
This is just a GREAT idea. I can't wait to lay into my heavy bag with one of these!
