Kamehameha attack or Hawaiian king?

[Twalli]

So unlike most people who hear Kamehameha, I don't think DBZ when I hear it. The first time I heard or read Kamehameha was in reference to a king of Hawaii, Kamehameha I. So when I hear Kamehameha, I immediately think of that Hawaiian king. Did anyone else first hear of the Hawaiian king as opposed to the the DBZ attack?

Sorry, I'm a DBZ fan! I love how they put the hands Stupid how they need to charge it for so long, they should have come up with a shorter name!

Dbz thing I heard first I later learned of the King aswell

[Xoirwinkan]

Heard of it from DB first, and was later surprised to find the historical coincidence later.

[Twalli]

You know the king came first? It's kind of like storm troopers in Star Wars actually came from the Nazi SA, which were called storm troopers. The SA came before Star Wars. Kamehameha I came before Dragon Ball.

[Xoirwinkan]

Yeah. And the other Empire officers also dress like Nazis.
