I "telescoped" an arrow once and my son was all like, "Dad that's some ninja type stuff there!" I said, "No that is called dumb luck and MISSING in the same place twice." I told him it was "Repeatably bad!". Some of the stuff folks can do with enough practice is pretty awesome - I watched Byron Ferguson at a show once and that was pretty cool - he was busting hand tossed life saver mints with a long bow and shooting instinctively.
