I'm a reenactor, but of earlier periods to WW2.This is pretty incredible though:

I must say if I'd lived through that particularly period in history I'd definitely not want to see it reenacted... Interesting stuff none the less.

I hope the pics were posed, because the one with the guy wielding the knife is quite scary, makes you wonder whether anybody got injured in that reenacting session..

Probably, but vodka is a pretty good anaesthetic.

Yeah people often get hurt, just part of it. I think in Russia they go in a bit harder, some of the medieval reenactments serious! Han might know lol...
