Awesome: Hideaki Akaiwa 2, Earthquake 0

The delightful website Bad@$$ of the Week typically profiles a different fictional or historical figure every week amid a masterclass-level exhibition of profanity in the service of rip-roaring comedy, and it's great fun.  This time, though, its admiration is clear as it profiles Hideaki Akaiwa, a real-life action hero from Japan.  This is not an exaggeration; his story is fully documented (see the news article links at page bottom).  Read it and be astonished.
