One hell of a cool lightsaber fight

If you're a Star Wars fan you'll love this fight put together by two young Star Wars fans:

All I would say is I notice they didn't do it costume. Trust me, having tried to fight with a sabre you soon realise why the Jedi loose their outer cloaks as soon as they start to fight (if not sooner). Even then trying not to get knotted up in those long sleeves on the tunics isn't easy.

May the Force be with You.
