The simple towel has got to be considered as one of the deadliest weapons in the martial arts. This weapon should be outlawed…it is that deadly. The deepest, darkest prison is where anybody caught with a towel should be thrown!

It is common knowledge that a towel moves at a fantastic speed. The end of a towel can move at faster than one hundred miles an hour when flicked by the capable hand. Split skin and huge welts are the result of the speeding tip of a towel!

There is one trick that make a towel even more deadly. By dipping the end of the towel into water one can cause even greater pain, and inflict even more damage! A towel tip dipped into water, you must understand, is going to have more weight, and more integrity when striking.

One other thing that you should cogitate over is the fact that a towel is hidden quite easily. It is actually concealed in plain view of any who would look! After all. why should a simple towel cause any fear?

And, speaking of this hidden factor, when are you most susceptible to attack? When you have no weapon! When you have a spear or sword, or even a simple knife in hand, people are much more loathe to attack you!

If you have just been for a swim, or popped out of the shower, that is the time when you are most unarmed, and nobody is going to be scared of you. Being unarmed is the time when muggers are going to most eager to seek you out. That is the time when the big, bad mugger is going to want to attack you!

When attacked wearing a towel, however, you wont need to scream in fear and search frantically for a weapon. All you have to do is let the towel drop to the floor, which (it is hoped) will give your attacker a shock of the severe kind. Then, you dance the dance and flick the flick., and the mugger will shortly be running for cover!

What is funny is that you think I have just been joking around. Miyamoto Musashi, possible the greatest swordsman who ever lived, was once trapped in a bath house by a dozen armed thugs. All he had was a towel and his, huge talent, and he routed those muggers down the street and out of town!
