Japanese Fluorescent Light Fights Light Up My Gag Reflex
02. Dec, 2009

When you think of Japan, you think of serene temples… succulent sushi… and horribly fluorescent light wrestling matches? Apparently now you can.
I think that we can all agree that doing battle with fluorescent lighting is a bad idea, but that certainly didn’t stop the Japanese. I think Neatorama says it best: “It’s like WWF meets WTF” … with extra emphasis on the WTF part.
I don’t even know what to say about this, so instead of saying anything at all, I’m just going to post pictures. It’s up to you to tell the world what you think, because I don’t think I can think anymore.
Seriously, this has to be either a prank or a scene from a Takashi Miike film. I’m pretty sure if these guys don’t die form inhaling shards of glass, they’ll die of something a bit more cancerous. I like how they tie the rods together, too. Maybe so the fluorescent rods don’t break while they’re being swung? Anyone know what it’s like to get one of these things broken over your head?

WOW…..
Thats pretty crazy =P maybe they should use other color lights….that would be spectacular
When you get hit with a fluorescent light rod it doesn't really hurt, but apparently it causes little cuts and some bleeding.
I'm pretty sure that someone swung a friend with one and realized that they break in a dashy way and applied the idea into the wrestling business… and now they're all excited about the new stuff. I guess. Don't lose your ability to think. I'll have to find another website to read regularily.
lol wooaah fo sho WTF?!!?:
Whoa…
Why…would anyone want to do this? and why doesn't Left 4 Dead 2 include a fluorescent light melee weapon?
Poor zombies, that would be cruel!
Ugh. A more pressing question who would go to watch this?!
Id watch this once just to see if it is real. Then Id go W-T-F for the rest of my life.
Americans have been doing this for years before this…
for instance “backyard wrestling”
And what about the mercury contained within these fluorescent tubes? It's not any healthy either.
well, fake or not. Some one has way to much time on their hands.
Only thing that would make this cooler, is if you set up performing area under some power lines. Then the flurescent's would glow.
Maybe they are recycling?
I can watch MMA and accept that the fighters are consenting adults in their right minds. I think, “They've trained hard for this and are professionals working to elevate their craft.” But I look at these guys and I think, “There are insane. They should be stopped.”
Aside from the glass and flourescents, aren't they worried about exposure to their opponent's blood? Maybe I'm just being OCD, but I'd be worried about viruses and all that stuff.
I hope this trend doesn't last.
LOL…look up Sick Nick Mondo and Combat Zone Wrestling. This is nothing!
Oho,I like how in the top picture it looks like hes just letting the other guy hit him.Seems fun!Imagine if they fell…
Wow, the performers not to mention the audience, will be suffering from extreme mercury poisioning!Watching wrestling really can damage your brain, and CNS! Not to mention whatever blood-borne diseases they are probably sharing with each other.
Allow me to introduce you to Necro Butcher (youtube) watch?v=UVcHW630Ae8&feature=fvw (youtube)
This is in Big Japan Pro-Wrestling (BJW): http://bjw-usa.com
They are in a form of a wrestling match called a deathmatch. It happens all the time with the light tubes, barbed wire, and thumb-tacks. It has lost some of its popularity a bit from the 90's where Frontier Martial Arts Wrestling (FMW) made it famous.
Dude, that's totally “Back Yard Wrestling”! It usually involves bats, thumb-tacks, barbed wire, hey wait a minute…*looks at above post*….hmmm, I wonder which came first.
This is crazy… I heard that the florescent substance has dangerous toxins that cannot be purged by the human body.
Hey, I should mention one thing here, Koichi. You did such a diservice to all of us by showing us these very disturbing pictures. You shoud've thought about the consequences of doing that. I don't know about other people, but you 've certainly lost me as a subscriber.
You made a huge blunder here. I will never read your blogs again! You are doing this for fucking money, we all know. GO TO HELL AND SCREAM LIKE A PIMP, MOTHER FUCKER!!
First, it does hurt to have it broken over any part of your body, well at least I thought it hurt. That's what happens late nights when bored with your friends. Second, while the chemicals are dangerous if you cold shower after wards it prevents the powder from entering your pores and wounds, or so I have been told. Third, it's Japan. Everything has a niche in Japan. I used to love this style of Japanese wrestling until I realized that the classical strong style is way better. Yes, sadly, this is real and not on par with the bogus crap you see on American TV.

The powder in fluorescent lights is a particularly nasty anticoagulant. You can bleed from a wound that has been impressed with that powder for sometimes days. They take quite a while to heal but even a small cut will bleed profusely. But, as with fugu, sometimes the Japanese just want to test their limits.

Fluorescent lights do make a nice popping sound when they break (as I would know, having worked in a light factory for a few summers and have broken my fair share of fluorescent bulbs). The ones we used, at least, had some amount of mercury in them and need to be disposed of correctly.
This has passed the point of being entertaining. By a long, long way.
I wonder if they got the idea from Kenzi of the band Anti Feminism…
Won't inhalation from broken florescent light tube kill them?
