Of Mice and INDIAN SUPERMEN

... And now for something completely different.

From our cousins in the Indian sub-continent (South India in particular), come these men, nay, supermen. Armed only with their bristling handlebar moustaches (the kind you could lose small animals in) and incredible agility (in spite of their girths).

Tougher than Chuck Norris, more quippy than Arnie and Bruce Willis, more of a combined arms strike force than Steven Segal and more resourceful than McGyver.

These men are able to leap trains in a single bound, stop bullets with their bodies, ricochet aforementioned bullets directly into their enemies and generally giving a big "up yours" to the laws of physics and common sense.

One of the more famous ones, Vijayakanth is also a politician, bet you didn't know that one.

WTF: It's an education.

Variations on familar themes
You've seen this one before: Guy slides underneath trailer during chase sequence. More evidence of Indian badassery here, he does it ON A HORSE.



Bulletproof (I wish I was)
This is definitely a WTF moment. Even the guy playing the cop looks disbelieving. Pefect 10s for the gasp and the zoom-in. Very anime, very good.

And no, he isn't a Cyberdyne Systems Model 101 cybernetic organism (living tissue over metal endoskeleton). Can T800s ricochet bullets with such deadly accuracy? No!



Super shots and action replays
In the first portion, not only is the throw impressive, but what's more amazing is how can he down a whole bottle of soda without burping himself to death? The only explanation I can find for this is his facial hair gives him mythical powers, like Samson.

The second portion is where it gets weird. I can't figure out if he hits the guy seven times repeatedly or it's just an action replay. Look out also for where he blocks the knife. Hollywood no-hopers are usually content with blocking knives with their arms or makeshift shields. Pfft. What a bunch of little girls.



The Cessna, Saddam's Indian cousin and The Samurai sword
This one pretty much speaks for itself.



Audience gets a shock too

Watch for when he utters one of the best one-liners in the history of mankind. He ain't no normal man, he Narasimha, asshole!
