South Korean Robin Hood
 
 
 

Most people have seen at least one of the Robin Hood movies, and likely remember the scene where he wins the archery contest by shooting his arrow right down the middle of his opponents arrow.

In most cases you would have thought this to be simply a Hollywood filming trick, and it probably was, but that doesn’t mean it cannot be done in real life.

Below is a video of a South Korean archer who becomes our real life Robin Hood when he does the same arrow trick we all saw in the movies.

Surprised? Well South Koreans have been dominating archery for some time. If you remember in 2004, a South Korean archer broke 3 world records in archery during a single Olympic event.

that was awesome but not exactly the same as robin hood used to do. that guy used what looked like a hollow arrow and then a normal one. robin hood always split the first one with the second one. that was still really impressive though. few ppl can shoot a bow properly and hit the bullseye much less do it twice in a row
