Hmm... I remember one of my classmates was an avid larper. Well, nothing wrong with him, a normal, good guy. And he's sure got his muscles pumped up by constant fight training.

Welll, basically, LARPism is also role-playing, is it not? No great difference between PnP sessions and battle reconstructions.
Well, means are different, yes, but idea is quite the same.

For my money they are (slightly) less retarded than civil war reenactors, and much much less likely to be racist.

They are still pretty lame but there's always lamer out there.

There are at least two things lamer than Larp.

Klingon summer camp and cosplay.
