[Mortal Kombat] How come the top of Kung Lao's hat can go clean through bodies and things?

And related question: wouldn't the blades of Kitana's fans have to be in the same plane to cut cleanly? Or at least it seems to be and should be.

When Kung Lao throws his hat, he spins it like a frisbee. What’s less noticeable is that the blade is mounted in a separate spinning rim. When the blade makes contact, it slows down compared to the inner rim due to the extra resistance. This triggers a reverse spring mechanism connected to the top of the hat causing it to collapse like a magicians hat. When the hat passes through completely, the blade part no longer has a resistance greater to the inner plate which releases the hat collapsing mechanism causing it to pop up again.

It happens very fast. I’m not surprised you missed it.
