^ innovative and cunning individuals that left a mark on the world? ya i can easily see why you would think this is crap.

The only crap about ninjistu is modern day ninja freaks who practice with `ancient` they bought on ebay in the bedrooms and think they are secretly masters on the night.

edit: (at ragingbullfrog below) do you actualy think because i distain from the type of people i just mentioned it means i think im a master at the thing i distain from?

lol, no wonder people dont know shit about ninjitsu, pretty much everything in this video is made up total nonsense, and you dont have to be an expert to see that!

go read a book and learn about it for real istead of watching shit like this, its insulting

the only thing they got "slightly" right was the disguise`s other than that, its all bollocks!

^ Calm down Tamster - the video is a light 30-minute trip through the world of the ninja. That`s all. People can watch videos AND read books. They are not mutually exclusive.

FYI - a lot of these facts are correct. I am not an expert, but reading Stephen Turnbull`s "Ninja AD 1460-1650" - they do correlate. His book is by Osprey Publishing - well-known in military history - and it`s not some heavy turgid tome, just a brief 60-page overview. Mr Turnbull is a respected figure and quotes from old Japanese manuals on the subject. Sure, there is myth and exaggeration (which Mr Turnbull exposes and dislikes), but for night operations black would be the ideal colour. Don`t you think so too?

creeping around in black in the middle of the day is about as useful as urban camouflage ... or Jerry Springer`s Final Thought.

"Calm down Tamster - the video is a light 30-minute trip through the world of the ninja. That`s all. "

erm well thats the problem, ITS NOT!, and NO NO NO NO NO, you see turnbull is clearly full of shit aswell, he reading the same tier old crap,

WHTY black WAS NEVER used on "missions" it was ceremonial ONLY :-

1. black does not fade into the shadows, it leaves a silhouette , colours like red and grey work MUCH, MUCH better, thats why militailry aircraft are GREY! because its low visability.

2.If you get caught somewhere your not supposed to be its kinda hard to explain what you where doing when your wearing a big black ninja outfit.

3. think about it, according to this vid a ninja would dress as someone and then go and get changed onsite and then go for the mission? are these ninjas retartded? no just the guy who made the video!

thats why BLACK is NOT the ideal colour, if you find some book on ninjitsu, writin by actual practitioners, then you can find out how it REALY works, its much better that the tierd old movie garbage this video promotes.
