Karate “Masters” Fight a Stop-Motion Battle on the Ground

It’s a backyard brawl when two martial arts masters face off in a high-stakes battle to win… the attention of a woman walking her dog. But this is no ordinary battle, it’s a stop-motion battle. The two “masters” in this video are trained in the mystical art of fighting on the ground.

The clip comes from Corridor Digital, the folks behind the awesome live-action Grand Theft Auto V video. The stop-motion definitely makes these dudes look like karate kings, even if they are just rolling around on the ground.

Corridor Digital said in a tweet that the inspiration for “Stop-Motion Karate” came from the old school stick figure fights from the early days of YouTube. Check one out below.
