RMR: Rick and Fencing

Rick visits the national training centre in Montreal, Quebec to learn
from Canada's top fencer Sandra Sassine.

I love how Rick is just fucking with everyone lol

[@skyebird3933]

Rick, you're the best.😁

[@amotue]

when I saw this on the main page it said "MercerReport uploaded a new video 22minutes ago" it made me smile.

[@AlteFritte]

I totally agree with you. Her smile, her accent, just everything. What a pretty woman :)

[@timsummers870]

She's so cute.

[@wanieta9271]

RICK my son you crack me up !

[@flungingpictures]

Rick was wearing Philippe Beaudry's lamé. Philippe has been the CDN sabre national champ for the last few years.

[@AGH331]

Damn, she's cute - the way she's laughing when he's wrapping her in the wire, when she's hitting him and her eyes at 6:16 :'D

[@sala.9668]

he's gay LOL

[@ChristopherKing]

I remember giving this a go as a phys-ed choice while attending Dawson College. It''s a lot harder than most people give it credit

[@mtwoden]

That was and looked fun!

[@Aramyss99]

Rick, you crack me up

[@CptSchmidt]

Let her speak, Rick!

[@SamStuart07]

Yay, fencing is on TV.

[@STNeish]

My, but she's beautiful! And that ACCENT!

[@0ndem]

Next up Rick you need to fence foil. Glad that our wonderful sport is getting some coverage.

[@adrenalynn22]

Since fencing is super fast (the second fastest thing in the Olympics is a fencer's blade point), it's often hard to see a touch so modern fencers are hooked up to electric boxes which records when a hit is made (i.e., when the blade completes a circuit with the silvery metal part of the jacket and sabre mask).

[@DCassidy42]

I think it detects when the opponent makes contact with their saber. It essentially keeps score. I could be wrong though, I'm no fencer.

[@MrShenhai]

Rick looks like an astronaut at 3:06! Yay! :D

[@AlteFritte]

Me too, mate :D Have a good week. Greetings from Germany ^^

[@MrJujitsu62]

Great !!!

[@LtStJebus]

I wish duels with warblades were an official sport. A duel with a heavy blade is much more satisfying than one with a TV antenna. It recreates single combat of a millenium ago, where the dueling blade was the same one you'd bring to war.

[@AstOnokGaming]

yep teaching fencing is basically exactly like this every time XD

[@GOBLIN2950]

always wanted to see Rick in some Karate or TKD club ;-)

[@StupidTeddybear]

i love her french accent

[@Ryan-yz1tf]

I remember I took fencing classes, and this was when I was really into medieval stuff. I was practicing with my partner and got a little carried away. I spun 360 degrees and slashed the guy. He looked so confused hahaha

[@tazithechimp]

like a car in Winnipeg :)

[@thePirateQueenKt]

Did they explain what the plug was for? I missed it

[@MegaCocacolafan]

What was the jazz bit in the intro of this video?

[@Wulfy09]

Hmm, some of my best friends are fencers!

[@Mayanstudios]

Looked like she was waaay to happy to hit him haha

[@lunzgerald]

It’s to record hits.

[@Tetraglot]

lol I think that's what he was going for :P

[@MonkeyspankO]

Rick flirty

[@Devinfrbs]

She looks like she was getting frustrated with him.

[@McArrowni]

Hilarious

[@123northcoast]

I knew the instructor would be an attractive woman before I even clicked on the video

[@LadyLightningstorm]

I want to fence.

[@DiscoDevilDog]

She can hurt me.

[@Nerflover10097]

God the French are so serious.

[@vonfrancois]

Oh we think the same of anglos! lol But seriously (yeah, i know) Rick messes with everyone he meets. That's a well known fact.

[@chantalblanchard8860]

😂😂😂

[@stevejessjess1068]

My fencing coach is really scary,when ever I do something wrong.He gets like 'DO NOT EVER DO THAT AGAIN SON!' Man his too scary.

[@LeoPertinax57]

Just slaps him in Beaudry's electric lame :P

[@Unan1m0us]

Quebec Qutie

[@lilkitten545]

She doesn't seem like she has much of a sense of humour lol
