3''Ledge Fighters'' is a WebVideo short on Website/YouTube.
4
5You know how in a FightScene in a movie, there's always at least one RailingKill? Well, the entire video is this. It is very awesome.
6
7It can be seen [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZE0CFqEHThI here]].
8
9!!This video contains examples of:
10
11* AxeCrazy: Most of the characters apparently. The protagonist ends up attacking innocent bystanders, including [[BlackComedy a woman with a pram]].
12* CoolShades: One of the few bad guys to get more than 0.84 seconds to live wore these.
13* CombatPragmatist:
14** The characters are nearly all Knife Nuts in this one, but the first guy who tries it goes the way of the swordsman in ''Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk''.
15** Then the [[RuleOfThree next two guys]] who mess about with a staff and a mace quickly get shown the ledge too.
16** The fact that CoolShades, the first of the three to try this, gets shot with a gun in the classic style RailingKill while everybody else in the video gets simply chucked over suggests that it was a InspirationNod for the ''Franchise/IndianaJones'' scene inspiring all of the Combat Pragmatism.
17%% * ExplodingBarrels: Seen at the end.
18%% * EyeScream: The final enemy gets a knife in the eye, delivered by ''[[CutlassBetweenTheTeeth the teeth]]''.
19%% * FightScene: The entire thing.
20%% * GreyAndGreyMorality: It's unclear who exactly we are rooting for. The man who is apparently the DesignatedHero starts targeting innocent bystanders after defeating most of his enemies.
21%% * GroinAttack: To the guy waving the baton around.
22* {{Homage}}: Essentially a homage to every early 90s 2D fighter with their highly urban yet highly flamboyently dressed {{mooks}} and the tendency for them to fall in large arcs with incredibly stiff animations.
23%% * MadeOfExplodium: The barrels at the end.
24%% * NoNameGiven: No one has names.
25%% * NotQuiteDead: The last enemy. Hard to tell which gang member it is, though.
26%% * RailingKill: They could have named this ''Railing Kill: TheMovie''.
27%% * RepeatCut: The final kill.
28%% * RefugeInAudacity: It becomes a BlackComedy near the end.
29* ShoutOut: The logo looks like the ''Franchise/StreetFighter'' logo.
30* StockScream: One guy lets out a Wilhelm, and the next guy dies with a Howie Long scream.
31%% * StuffBlowingUp: The ending.
