Well, Dorkman was too arrogant at that moment, so he paid for it with his hand

[@GauntletsofRai]

"What the hell are you kids doin' in my warehouse?!?" "uhh... it's a lightsaber dual" "damn nerds..."

[@omarsantana3680]

my thoughts go out to Dorkman in his loved ones. i hope for his speedy recovery & that he's made much progress since the crash.

[@coolautistickid3165]

So, I showed my friends RvD and RvD2 and they asked "So, who's better?" I said "Well, in terms of strength, Ryan is better. In both I and II, Dorkman is on the defensive the ENTIRE TIME. There are brief periods where he gains the upper hand, like when he loses his glasses in I or when he takes Ryan's lightsaber in this one. But Dorkman loses the advantage as quickly as he gains it. In terms of strategy, Dorkman prevails here. He get out of every situation he finds himself in. And if he can't out-muscle Ryan, he'll outthink him. Like in RvD I, during the final moments, he lets Ryan force-grab his lightsaber, and proceeds to turn it on when it's at such close proximity to his. So, if you're asking who is better, the answer is neither of them. They're equals." (That's all. Like if you understand and agree.)

[@MarkHawkCam]

Hey Everyone, Dorkman was the victim in a terrible drunk driving accident last night. While walking back to work from a dinner break, a drunk driver ran the curb and hit Micheal. He is in critical condition and has a long road ahead of him. Our company has setup a GoFundMe page to help pay for the medical costs and offer any support for him we can. Please Donate what you can or share this story. Link will be in the post below this but if it doesn't search @DorkManScott or #SaveDorkman on twitter to find a bunch of support links

MarkHawkCam and I can tell it's a scam cuz Ryan Wieber would 've said something about it on his channel and he hasn't

[@MarkHawkCam]

Aidan Ballato I literally gave 3 other affiliating projects he is involved with all with official statements. I work with Michael, shared a desk with him, and worked on a lot of the same shows. If you think I'd risk my career on a scam you're insane (look up Mark Velazquez and Michael Scott on IMDB if you must). Go on twitter, DorkmanScott's official twitter has posted a link to the same ones I gave you. Why don't you message Ryan for clarification then. For someone who said they were going to Pray for Michael Scott you sure are going way out of your way to hurt him now.

[@ZorkFox]

Thank you for putting this into perspective for me. I'm a child of the 70s and even *I* have become so steeped in the high-definition screens of the present that I'm ashamed to admit I thought, "What the heck! This isn't even HD!" …Even though I have a video file on my media drive from when I first saved it the year it was released. :(

[@viperhalberd]

I wish this was in 1080p. Can't believe it's 7 years old now. Good to see Michael Scott went onto something good after Dunder Mifflin.

[@RyanWieber]

Dorkman uploaded an HD version, also on his channel. It is only 720p though, because that's what we shot it in. The reason this upload exists is kind of funny. KZbin didn't support HD yet, at the time. Even our HD version they hadn't really worked out the compression entirely.

[@viperhalberd]

Ryan Wieber Hi Ryan, thanks for the reply! I'll have to try and find the 720p version! Do you know if there is any update on Michael's condition? I haven't heard anything since the initial announcement of the accident. Hope you are well! Cheers :)

[@GreatApeThoughts]

I love the fight choreography that these two have. It feels like they're really trying to kill each other with every swing of their lightsabers. That always bugged me about the prequels. Every fight felt like they were aiming for the enemy's lightsaber and not the person they were trying to kill. Just goes to show you what happens when no one on set is willing to say no to George Lucas.

[@Crouza]

I love the burn and melting effects you added with the walls and floor, makes the whole thing perfect.

I guess the idea was for him to die in pain, or at least torture him before he delivers the final blow.

He actually narrowly missed his opponent's heart. Also not to mention he thought he had already won.

I remember when this first released. I still show these specific videos to people as an example of why most of the lightsaber scenes in the movies are disappointing. That's why I'm here today. Hi! Hope you're doing good. Thanks for the entertainment.

[@pjamese3]

Personally, I think this is the best light saber duel I've ever seen...including the movies. What makes this video work so well is: 1) The choreography. Some Flynning, of course, but not too much. 2.) The music 3) Them showing that light sabers are dangerous (I'm thinking mainly the wall scene.) 4) The fact that they're swing at each other and not just standing back and hitting blades in between themselves. 5) The humor: the force duel and both of them without their weapons. Great video!!

[@mistermajestyck]

There's more passion and effort in this 10 mins than the 3 prequels put together. Good work guys.

Negative. After RvD (the first) I worked for about a year at LucasArts, on the video games. Since then I've migrated into a career in visual effects for television and film. None of us have any involvement in JJ's movie.
