Some Chinese spies were/are trained to shoot needles to assassinate.

If I'm not mistaken, he is a HK movie star (he was in KillBill2 as "PaiMe")
He does know martial arts.

Discovery Channel had the series on the Spies a while back, not the 007 fancy type.
Not a huge needle needed, just the training; it was a training for the "Heads of State"

Pretty cool! How close is he to the glass?

Sure... but the needle in the video is freaking huge, and thick. Its more like a mini spear!

 

[sfsuphysics]

glass most likely is quite thin too, otherwise the mass of the needle wouldn't even dent the glass, regardless of the level of super ninja training you have

LOL Quote from the bottom of that video reads...

"chuck norris once threw glass through a needle."

 

[Sfork]

imagine if he threw a crochet needle haha

Needle is huge, glass is thin and the dude doesn't even crack a smile or fist pump when he does it.
