Its a NINJA!

It wouldn't have mattered if they were completely focused on the surroundings. Ninja's are so super awesome they wouldn't have seen it coming anyway.

Well...at least they're dressed for the Foxtrot that's about to occur. :twisted:

Yeah Kaff, way to not draw any more attention to yourself. Wonder what our friendly local paranoid employer will say about this?

Anyone want to bet the ninja is actually a costumed re-enactor?

re-enacting WHAT? The pan-asian special forces attack on the mel-one station three hundred years ago?

Seem unlikely.

I'm leaning towards either a customer of, or advertiser for, some local ninja store in the mall. maybe a Dojo for the Parkata Urbatsu discipline Shodan mentioned.

Not this guy, I'm guessing...

(I never saw the movie other than a case on a retail shelf, mind you.)

The real question is this: Has he bounced spinward (adding to his angular momentum and making the floor impact harder), anti-spinward (removing angular momentum, making the floor impact lighter, at a cost of more tumbling to match speeds after contact), or axially?

And also, is this a ninja move, or just a guy who happens to be dressed up as an ninja, who also happens to be translating through the mall efficiently by avoiding escalators.

Okay, Parkata Urbatsu is looking more probable now.

What are the odds that the ninja is just an Urban Runner?

A parkourja? Could be. I note that there is no obvious sword.

Which brings up the next question? Why *IS* Tagon chasing the ninja, anyway? I mean, other than that it's a ninja. There's no apparent sign that, other than being a ninja, that it has DONE anything.

Do you suspect that if you went basejumping off high ledges at your local shopping centre, wearing an identity-concealing mask, security would smile and wave and then forget all about you?

Obviously, it looked really, really fun.

Yes, but is it as much fun as Wingsuit Base Jumping?
