Da-GO-bah? What the heck?
In all seriousness though, I've never seen that. Very interesting.

It's one of the ESB stunts-- check out page 14 if the Lightsaber guide

Wow - if memory serves that scene was in the book and/or the Marvel adaptation, but I've never seen any indication that it was actually filmed before!
Woah...OK, Mark Hamill and Frank Oz are still with us. They need to record dialogue for this scene so that it can be reinserted.
Let's...not.
Lol. I will say that the swinging was a bit awkward and would need to be edited to smooth it out. For a second I thought I was watching one of those "Star Wars Kid" videos...

Found a pic while Googling...
That was my exact thought when I saw that video with the ROTJ pilots...

It never dawned on me that Luke fought with the bunny ears pointed outward. My mind was blown (disappointed?) when I first saw that pic.
That's the most comfortable way to hold the Graflex with the clamp in ESB position.
The stunt saber appears to still have the beer tab attached.
He does that a few times through out the film, it always bothered me too

I noted that in the book-- seems like the it is there on Dagobah, (you can also see it on the stunt used in the cave duel).

Judging from these photo's, Mark handled the saber more ways than one (bunny ears/tall shroud side pointing towards him).
Also, in one of the Pop Culture Quest promo vids (where he talks about comfort and handling), he grips the ROTJ clamp on the outside (fingers wrapped around it), suggesting that if that were the ESB version, the bunny ears would be facing him, not away from him.
I personally like bunny ears facing Luke. Makes more sense to me.

Where's this pic (188) from? Different ring AND, I hate to admit it, but those are 100% screws that are colored black.
