My heart almost leeped out of my chest when i saw you shoot that first target. That is some badass learning skills you have!

I´ve know of you just a little while and i have to say you inspire me to try and find that internal spark that i hope is inside me too to find and experience the world around us.

Hope tu see more.

haha..just realized that this was posted by you Kevin. Leaving the comment it redirected me here, the comment was meant for tim, but I guess you can pass it on :)

Enjoying your stuff too, you make me wanna be a techie! :)

Saw it when it aired. That was the first I’d heard of Tim, from Leo mentioning it on his blog Dec of 2008, watched the show, bought the book, added some tools to my life.

Thanks!

Yeah! I live on top of the wrong side of a mountain and can't get cable or satellite, I've been waiting to be able to see this video online!

Been waiting for this for a long time. Cheers!

Wow, that was pretty amazing, well produced. Tons of good info as well.....

Inspiring. Like a great three-act movie. Or four-hour workweek. Great work Tim and crew.

Kevin, thanks for posting this. Tim, absolutely an amazing video. I actually cheered when you hit those targets. Thanks for being an inspiration to all of us.

Amazing, yes. In so many ways. But, you, Tim Ferris, are the rock star. It is unfortunate that some would question the real courage and strength, both physical and of character, that it would take to do what you did there. This is so often the stuff of fiction. But, you really did it and in a most respectable manner.

The butt shot was a total bonus ;-)

I really like it, thank you Kevin for posting it.

Wow! Finally I get to see this. I missed the original airing because I was on an info diet and didn't see Tim's blog post in time. EVEN BETTER THAN EXPECTED. The impression I got from the title and descriptions of this show was that it was all about the drama (can he, or can't he accomplish this?) but the Life-hacker-esqe Tips throughout were INCREDIBLE. That is the kind of content I would tune in every week for.
Count me in. (also, I have to point out that said drama was diminished on this page by the fact that some comments had the spoiler "...Tim shot those targets" in them, ...just saying.)

I was waiting for this for ages! Finally seen it, when will the 2nd episode come out?

Thanks for uploading this Kevin!

Very interesting and well produced. Is this considered part of the Random Show?

Thanks for putting this up here Kevin/Tim. Really. It's not so much about learning Yabusame, in my mind, as it is about stretching ourselves beyond what we think we can do.

Stoked!!!Fantastic job guys!Thank you.

Inspiring work, inspiring movie.

Loved this video - sweaty palms and everything! Tim you are unbelievable - fearless!!

Glad I saw that - thank you

I thought this was going to be just entertainment at the start, but it proved to be far more educational than entertaining. I drew several lessons from it. Fantastic video, Inspiring is an understatement.

I'm glad Tim didn't have to commit sepiku.

just incredible, great work

This is one of the most inspiring films I've seen in years. Thank you Tim for showing us that what we fear can be transformed into reality. Riveting! Brilliant!

Thanks for sharing this video. I had been hoping that I could see it for a long time now. Great job, both in learning Yabusame and in telling your story about it.

That was awesome! I don't know why this didn't make it past the pilot, I was enthralled throughout the whole thing. Pretty sure I gave a fist pump when Tim hit the first target too!

Your courage and commitment to live life at its fullest is profoundly moving and inspirational.
I cried when you hit the first target.
We clearly witnessed more than Tim and Yabusame.

Really amazing.I'm a fan of Japanese martial arts,specially Iaido,Kyudo and Yabusame and it's the first time I see a western doing yabusame in Japan.What a challenge and privilege! I envy you,Tim Ferris!!!

I am so happy this is here! F yeah! No more episodes?!

Stop trying to hit me and hit me!
Very inspirational to see Tim give up the analysis and just do the task. The subconscious mind is an amazing learning machine. Thanks to Kevin Rose for posting.

Glad to see this online. It was so much fun to Produce this program with Tim. Tim, if you are following this string.

Hope you are well!

Richard

terrific production values, but tim really doesn't disappoint ... ever! thanks man, it's a rush to see you in action.
