lightsaber nunchucks: *facepalm*

I can see how this could be fun, but if you show this to a Star Wars geek he’ll probably shake his head, gather his robes and walk away. Some guy who looks like a mugger took 2 glow sticks, put them together with a link chain and voila! Lightsaber nunchucks. Or maybe he just stole it from a Jedi. I’m kidding. Good job Muggerman.
Knowing what it’s made of, you can easily make and possibly even sell your own version of lightsaber nunchucks. Just know that the glowing part is supposed to be pure energy, so if you really had a pair of lightsaber nunchucks, you can only hold them once. And then you won’t be able to hold anything at all.
Unless you were wearing gloves with a cortosis weave. But then that would short out the lightsaber. I will stop now.

I can’t believe I didn’t get the *facepalm* reference in the title. Now it makes perfect sense.
Guys this isn’t anything new, ravers have been doing this sine the 90’s.
glowsticking.com & youtube
I guess that’s what I get for not going to any raves.
and Jedi have been doing it a long time ago.
Not glow sticks. Wooden nunchucks.
… in a galaxy far, far away, right?
I failed at hitting the correct reply button!
minor *facepalm* for you
The Force will protect the Jedi weilding this weapon from any harm.
Thanks for posting my video.First I’d like to say that they are NOT glow sticks, but are indeed real nunchucks. It is a special effect that I layered over them which explains why I am able to type this response.
Stupid question, but just to be sure: By “layered over” you mean over the video and not over the nunchucks themselves right? Like rotoscoping or something? Can you also make lightsaber ninja stars?:D
Correct. Rotoscoped the video. If you pause the video at the start you can see the regular black wooden nunchucks and I guess throwing stars could be done. Time will tell.
