The Official Ninja Webpage: Real Ultimate Power is a satire website created in 2002 by the pseudonymous Robert Hamburger. Written using the persona of a 13-year-old boy, the site is a parody of adolescent fascination with Ninjas. Warren St. John, columnist for The New York Times described it as "a satirical ode to the masculine prowess of ninjas".[1]
In 2004, it was chosen by Kensington Books for their inaugural book release in the new fratire genre—non-fiction literature marketed to young men in a politically incorrect and overtly masculine fashion. Due to the website's fan base, the Real Ultimate Power, The Official Ninja Book became a cult hit, selling 35,000 copies in two years.[2] The success of the book prompted Kensington's release of other fratire books by Tucker Max and Maddox.[2][3]
The Real Ultimate Power concept developed an internet meme with the creation of dozens of imitation parody websites.[4][5]
