Star Wars

There is an actual school where you can train to be a Jedi and we've never felt more prepared for an exam in our lives.

The School of Saberfighting bills itself as one of the first of its kind, specialising in "public performance of duels inspired by Star Wars" and offering training for those keen to learn their particular "form of stage fencing".

Which means that you'll finally have a legitimate reason to don a black hooded cloak and swing your lightsaber around while making "whoom, whoom" noises.

Founded in March 2003, the institute is based in Moscow, Russia and has already produced plenty of talented athletes who have gone on to win "the highest stage fencing titles in various Russian championships."

They've also collaborated with Hollywood combat choreographers and performed at The Last Jedi premiere in December, so you know they've really made it.

Obviously flights to Russia are pretty expensive but, you know, the 2018 FIFA World Cup is on there this year.

Sounds like the perfect justification to us.
