I was looking for a comic relieft section on the site to post this message. But a forum named Tales -- in this case, Tall Tales -- seems more than appropriate. Anyway, I found a video of this lunatic in chicago who teaches death touch techniques! It is hilarious and scary simultaneously...scary that his students fall for his crap. I was almost crying from laughter. As a forewarning, in case some haven't heard, there is no such thing as a one touch kill. Anyway, here's the link: http://www.bullshido.net/gallery/showphoto.php/photo/816/cat/524

I've seen that vid before, it's about some guy claiming that he can do no touch KOs and some intense pressure point stuff.
He really knocks his students out, and there appears to be some strange heart activity. Then he proceeds doing the same on the reporter and nothing happens, and then he tries again on BJJ practicioners and nothing happens as well.
I do wonder what caused the effects on his students, it's clearly psycholigical, but I'd sure like to know the details.

Well, I'm aware of at least four other individuals who can do that very effectively.
1. Yoda
2. Count Dooku
3. Senator Palpatine/The Emperor
4. Darth Vader

Cord -- Maybe they don't want to mess with a Brit. You bloaks, as you might say, can be a tough, tenacious bunch.
Foundation -- I honestly am very skeptical of his students. It's not like a film crew suddently appeared at his doorstep. He knew in advance they were coming. My worry is this idiot is going to get his students killed when their lives are on the line. Did you guys see Stephen Bonnar? Maybe you can ask him what he thinks of this garbage.

Isn't that a George Dillman protegé? For some reason, the video stopped before a third of the way through. I have seen it before however.
It's somewhat typical of what can be found out there. Naturally I have problems with this considering that it works only on the guys STUDENTS!

Don't these people ever learn??? How many more people are going to believe this stuff when it is exposed like this?? It doesn't seem to matter how many times it is shown up, there are still some idiots willing to believe it.

Interesting stuff. Besides the fact that he's endangering and ripping off his students, what makes anyone think someone is going to just stand there and LET them touch their pressure points? Against an average joe on the street, what do you do? Ask him, that's what. Now against an average joe on the street who wants to take your money and KILL you with his happy trigger gun, I wouldn't touch it (no pun intended). Come to think of it, and this is a good question, I wonder if presure points are considered to be part of one's fine motor skills, gross motor skills, or sprinkled across both. From my experience, and I remember learning some pressure point techniques in my training, I'd get my ass kicked attempting it on a grappler (that's another story).

I think I saw Stephan Bonnar in the video, he was one of the BJJ guys. Maybe I'm seeing things...

You`re quite right. If you know some PP it doesn`t mean you can now just beat anybody. You have to have some skill before you are able to use PP. If your opponent has more skill than you, what is the use of PP? I guess PP are the perfection of your skill.

I WAS RIGHT! The report was shot in Chicago, where Stephen Bonnar trained. Does anybody know what year that was shot? I guess he was going to be on TV one way or another.
P.S. Could someone else confirm this? He's one of t he BJJ guys that gets tested on. I would hate to be wrong and not know it.

Many years ago, I used to go to Dillman's tournament. He held two tournaments a year. In fact, I fought my first BB match with Dillman standing next to my instructor. Odd memories.
Back to the point...Years later, I was unable to go to the tournament one time so my students went anyway. They came back raving about a demo they saw there. Seems there was an old oriental man who stood in the center of the floor and asked 20 volunteers from the crowd to take their best shot at him one at a time. Block, strike, block, strike. Next thing you know, there were 20 unconsious people lying on the floor. I still wish I had seen it, but I don't doubt the truth of the reports.
I still want to do one of Dillman's seminars. Not to be the toughest guy in the room, but for a simpler reason.
It is about the pursuit of knowlege and what we make of it.

What is this guy? A seventh degree BB? This is why I no longer wholly trust anybody no matter what their rank.
Pressure points work. But it's not so much pressure points as it is attacking the bodies weak spots.

They were wearing dobaks, dobaks  thats not TKD, or a real MA. Its all mental, if you believe you can be knocked out you can be if not... well. I am sorry, but no, no, no, no I don't care this won't work. "traditional" what? As yuu can see worthless, I am usually open minded about MA, but ki in this way? NO

Yay! I thought I was the only one who thought that was bonnar in the video, it is kind of weird. He was destined for tv..one way or another.
Would've been great to see him NTKO's though!

haha thats funny..I have no doubt that those pressure points will knock you out but firing his chi like a fireball??  I doubt he can do it, especially when he couldnt knock the reporter out or the BJJ guys because their athletes. His students should be athletes too since they do MA also, but aparently this fireball of his only works on his students

I had to explain to my girlfriend that pressure points don't guarantee a win, and that she'd be better off kicking them in the balls.

Sounds like Oyata. Heard Oyata in his prime of 60 yrs old would take the biggest guy in the room and ask him to attack him any way he wanted.

Now that forearm strike is real. I was at a knife fighting seminar sometime back. The instructor said it was the fantasy time part of the class. That being disarming an armed opponent. He called it fantast time because he would never suggest that anyone ever try it.
One of our guys, nicknamed Tank, came at the instructor with the knife. Instructor grabbed the wrist and applied that forearm strike. As the instructor was walking away the guys noticed that Tank was weaving back and forth ready to go down. The instructor said to rub the big knot down that had formed on Tank's forearm, because if we didn't, he would be out for a while. That part was really cool.

Touchless KO is pretty much, IMHO, non existant
However, Dimmak is quite real, so long as you attack pressure points and vital organs with force and accuracy...much like what you would do in any other MA
