In Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, there is a metal umbrella that can protect against attacks. Inventor Colin Furze decided to make a real-world version and then shoot firecrackers and fire at himself.

The original in-game Loaded Umbrella is quite a stylised concept, so it’s neat to see that a real-world version does work as an actual shield.
Here is how it was made.

Colin Furze is the most insane inventor that I ever seen
and even that he’s 40 he looks like a kid
That is pretty cool, basic but surprisingly functional (for fireworks, sparks and flames at least)
The way it curves under its own weight after extension was an especially neat result.
On another note, I was a little alarmed how much trust he put in the shield. (Though I would wager he did some safety tests)
I know right? I mean even some safety goggle ffs. But I guess the Wolf doesn’t wear any, so ….
He’s wearing his safety tie.
Colin Furze is the real MVP! such a ballsy backyard inventor, not afraid to give it a crack and try his own crazy arse inventions. Check the rest of his channel if you haven’t already.
