Ever wonder what it would be like to take part in a real lightsaber duel? What am I asking, of course you have! Now imagine engaging in that duel, but as DARTH VADER, and now you’re cooking with gas.

These fellows called The Stunt People have done all the imagining for you in a video called “Vader Strikes,” which depicts a lightsaber duel from Vader’s POV at first, then switches over to the Jedi’s perspective. Plenty of sparks fly, and a Force Choke is even thrown in.

Of course, the effect isn’t 100% (a conflict between Vadar and a Jedi likely wouldn’t occur in what looks to be an office building’s hallway), but we give the boys points for trying! Watch the duel below and let us know what you think!
