how would you train yourself to stand still?
what would you be thinking as you put the apply on your head?

I wouldn't stand still no matter who it was. I would be going off like a frog in a sock and would have to be tied to the tree.
As far as my crossbow practice is going, I haven't tried a live target yet, I don't think I will be ready for this for maybe 18 months or so. I have been using a watermelon on a stump with an apple perched on the top.
I am, however, seeking volunteers 8-)

Did you read the story. This man was great with a cross bow.
Better than the king, which ticked him off. So in jealousy.
Rich people can do what they want with poor people.
Rich people declare war, poor people fight and die in them.
Anyway, he took his dearly loved son and set him in a field and put an apple on his head. Then told the guy shoot it off his head.
He protested and was very unset but the king said do it or the soldier will kill him anyway. So he did and his son lived.
But later he banded the poor people together and went after the king and his men and killed all of them. The bad thing is before that he was an advocate for the king.
Most civilizations eventually are run by super rich and super poor.
The super poor get together and kill the super rich and take what they have. Better for everyone to have a middle class.
When the middle class goes eventually the rich do to.
They are just so busy being rich they don't know that until it is to late.
One man was beaten and taken as a slave until he counldn't take it anymore and killed his master then himself.
Then all the slaves got the courage to fight and wiped them out.
that is just history lesson for today

I can stand still just fine without any training but that's something I would never agree to anyway. If it were a life or death decision, I'd just stand there with my eyes closed, hold my breath and try to keep my mind blank. But I'd be thinking "this f**king sucks" while I put the apple on my head.

I actually did something similar to this in my younger years. It wasn't an apple, but it was a target shot off my head with an arrow. I was able to stand still because I trusted the one who was shooting. I had never seen him miss, and so I focused my energy on remembering his record of accuracy. This in turn produced confidence.
Still, it was a dumb thing to do, and I definitely won't be doing that again.

I am not sure if I could but if I had to I would try and concentrate on the arrow hitting the apple
