    that scene where the lady gets her wings cut off is pretty intense.

    According to their site the last event was 2006. The land was shut down and they stopped I guess. I would have liked to see more updated footage or a "Where are they now" special. I really love this documentary!

    Larping is something I could probably never get into, but I'm glad everyone here is so happy! Fantasy is a little guilty pleasure of mine so I get the appeal. The werewolf costume was so cute lol. It seems like a very creative outlet so I gotta give them credit for that. I hope they continue on enjoying themselves :)

      And that's all you do? Don't you have something... better, to do? Nonlarpers normally try to avoid these games, so why do you seek them out? Because it gets pretty boring during downtime or long winded conversations, I'm a roleplayer and even I find those pretty boring.

      Tobias Skov leave this one alone. at least a non-LARP-er/non-RPG-er is interested enough to come over and be there. OBVIOUSLY we are far more interesting then anything else on T.V or the internet, and you might be pushing away someone who might have mates that could be interested in joining us or this person might be possibly scouting out the games to create a character?. please for the great gods of gaming be more open minded..... you ARE a gamer after all.
