Failed Punch

2009-08-23T03:06:00.000-07:00

He hesitated as he drew back for the blow. Second guessed himself and lost all concentration. I'm willing to bet the child's cry midway through the video threw him off.

Do not mock this Tae Kwon Do man. This technique will be very useful for punching through the wooden armor of the samurai this man will kick off their horses :o).

Self Defense with Ian Morris and Kim Strother

2008-09-14T05:52:00.000-07:00

Martial artist and Ford model Ian Morris runs Kim Strother through the basics of self defense.

Martial artist makes some really good points that I totally agree with. Defence move №2 is actually good. When you press in and down to that region, you don't need to be strong to inflict pain on even a big guy.

But if a girl is ever in that position she should just kick the guy in the nuts as hard as she possibly could and run. There's no point in trying to do any of that fancy stuff when you can make for an easy escape. But nice video anyway!

Never Trust a Woman Doing Martial Arts

2008-09-14T05:20:00.000-07:00

I think everyone is missing the point, I think it's supposed to be a joke. Like a lighter side of martial arts thing. Sorta like "Yeah I could do this, but ya know, I won't." And she kicks him in the nuts, and nuts shots are always guaranteed laughs. It was purely for comedy.

The title says it all. Nutcracker girl!

Kyokushin Karate Streetfighter vs Gang

2008-07-27T03:28:00.000-07:00

Of course it's fake video. Dramatized staged fight used as intro to the sport documentary "Fighting Black Kings" (about the 1975 world championship). These are members of the same dojo simply working out on the street.

It's just a advert made for some martial arts school back in Japan. Not a real fight if anyone really believed that. Just the typical Kyokushin Demonstration.

What is Kudo (Daido Juku) ?

2008-07-26T10:29:00.000-07:00

This is what called "Kudo"! Daido Juku is pretty good, it's like the cream of the crop.

I really like this style of martial art. This is one of the most practical martial art and good in a street fight as well. I like this format, you have some protection but still can figth realistically.

American Style Nunchakus 1978

2008-07-06T04:39:00.000-07:00

1978 - incredible! Almost 30 years ago. Very cool to see something done so long ago and still look relevant today.

He just keeps on going and he does finish off with a very nice kick. Eah!

Some of Mike Tyson's Knockouts

2008-06-24T11:17:00.000-07:00

Actually, this is a good video (the music isn't bad either). It depicts Tyson's unbelievable power and aggression. At the same time, it shows how he is indeed a "brawler" and not a "boxer" by any means! He reminds me of a lion viciously going after its prey as it begins to weaken. Incredible. I think the guy in the blue trunks deserves a gold medal for putting up with those bone crushing punches.

That is power, enjoy!

Asashouryu - One of the Strongest Sumo Wrestlers

2008-05-02T05:51:00.000-07:00

He is one of the strongest Grand Champ (Yokozuna).

He is not big as sumo wrestlers.

His weight is lighter and height is shorter than average of sumo wrestlers.

But he is overwhelmingly strong.

He has perfect technique, good speed, explosive power and awesome fighting spirit.

He is not Japanese. He is Mongolian.

This is his fifteen fights.

He's still young, he has a chance to become the greatest Yokozuna ever.

Daido Juku Spirit

2008-03-23T02:53:00.000-07:00

Much respect. Very practical martial art. I really like this style.

The first minute, the black and white part, is from when Daido Jukus founder Takashi Azuma was still in Kyokushin and fought in the First World Open Tournament back in 1975. This part is cut from "Fighting Black Kings" a 1976 documentry.

The name of the song at the first part of this video is "Red Warrior" by Hans Zimmer (soundtrack from the movie "The Last Samurai"). Fights highlight is Rammsteins "Sehnsucht".

Ichigeki Kyokushin Karate

2008-03-15T02:21:00.000-07:00

The Japanese word “Ichigeki” means literally “One Strike”. Ichi (one) Geki (strike). This is the introduction video from Ichegeki Hagane No Hito, a Playstation game.

The execution is WAY COOL! MAN! I've been replaying it to hear the music and the footage for a number of times now. The song is called "ichigeki", by the japanese group "N.G. Head". They have it on a single available from Amazon Japan.

Awesome video really shows how strong Kyokushin is. OSU.

Eberson Capoeira

2008-03-08T20:24:00.000-08:00

This is awesome capoeira video. I've never seen it real life... but I've always been interested in Capoeira, so much different than other martial arts thats what makes it so cool!

These capoeiristas have excellent endurance and stamina. It must take a lot of skill to fight that close and avoid hitting your opponent.

I love the great energy they put out, looks like they are having fun, and you have to respect the skill that they gained from hard work. It's inspirational!

A Herd of Buffalo vs Lions vs Crocodiles

2008-02-10T05:03:00.000-08:00

This is the best wild animal video I've ever seen! It shows how nature works!

Great footage! Absolutely amazing. A battle between a pride of lions, a herd of buffalo, and 2 crocodiles at a watering hole in South Africa's Kruger National Park while on safari.

This video proofs that animals could communicate and understand each other. The buffalos worked as a team and won. This is a pure example of teamwork.

P.S. And don't worry, those lions will eat something else anyway.

Kyokushin Karate Tameshiwari 1975

2008-02-04T09:07:00.000-08:00

Osu! Incredible and really impressive tameshiwari video.

Unfortunately no demonstrations of stones or bricks breaking by Mas Oyama, altho there is other vids on Mas Oyama videos category.

Nice spear hand through the watermelon but that part of jumping the car is fake! The jumper and the car are on two different plane. The guy running towards the car only jumps from the side. You can see that there is a rock which the car passes by. The guy jumps from the rock but the car doesn't drive over the rock, it goes by its side.

Nevertheless, to all the Kyokushin karatekas out there OSU!

Tameshiwari from the documentary of the first open world tournament: "Fighting Black Kings" of Kyokushin Karate in 1975.
