I remember some group that shot their arrows on the finger/thumb side of the bow. I think I saw it in a PA article a long time ago. Don't the Japanese or Koreans do this today?

No because they are using Olympic recurves with Mediterranean release....but that's a bit of a generalisation! I'm sure some of them do still use the thumb ring.
A ninja by definition is someone who has dedicated themselves to the achievement of a goal/skill set....just like this chap.

Yes, he is really a skilled archer - but give him a 65# Hunting Bow an a permanent draw to 28" and his magic won't work anymore.
I don't won't to offend him but that is not "Standard Archery".
He is an Artist - but a bowyer is an Artist too.
Nice to see but not really what makes me saying " Oh Good I was doing it wrong for the last 10 years"...
