Special Skills / Abilities Of Kung Fu

The following typical threads that plague martial arts sites will get moved here if not just deleted: 1 - My style is better than Your style" - 2 - "Internal & External" - 3 - Personal attacks - 4 - Threads that start well, but degenerate into a spiral of nonsense.

But hell if its out there you let me know, I'd gladly retract my thoughts.

Michael’s friend has the same build as Michael with a bulletproof vest, a AK, helmet, ammo, it must be approx 90 lbs. It was in the ….where there were terrorists that took some hostages and the terrorists places machine guns on the roof of the maternity home. The bullets are large and many can blow. By such a machine gun you can cut a man in two. His friend Jena jumped over a 6’ fence without touching at all. When they started to fire they said Jena where are you. He had already jumped the fence. I am here.

So it may happen. The names of the group just lie on the pavement. Everybody could hide himself. The need inspires really unique things.

Another case, in Piromaysk, when some hostages were taken and one guy had an AK in one hand and a box of ammo in the other, and a bulletproof vest and helmet. He jumped from the house and then the machine gun started to fire at him. There was a fence approx 1.5 meters. He jumped over it like a kangaroo and disappeared.
Then they asked him to do the same thing without ammo or gun and he failed.

Mikhail can tell lots of such cases.

It is necessary to have skills but when you have a real goal it is possible to do some fantastic things.

interesting story.

but it is against buddhism ,bad karma


Who says they were buddhist? I am sure they had a nice leg of lamb/sheep dinner and prayed before eating. Yes its a true story. They also used to practice hitting watermelon and not to break the watermelon rine but make the insides all mushy with the 'slapping palm' technique.

I just find the idea of "Wanna see how bad my palm tech is? *WHAM* now lets check this sheep out tomorrow!" hilarious.

I hope he had the decency to eat that sheep, otherwise he's just a punkass.

He referenced "shaking palm" used in a system of bagua, which uses palms...

I'm not sure how many are "buddhist".

I just can't help but wonder why it is that so many of these guys with supposedly 'special skills' and 'magical powers' aren't able to get rid of their big bellies or grow hair on their heads? ??? Go figure. -shrug-

But what do I know? Appearances are oftentimes very deceiving. ;)

NICE!!!

Doc, that was simply outstanding! i almost spit my beer through my nose when i read this!

my "Celebration Beer" that is...

guys, if you ever have the chance to hang with Doc, take it! the guy is a comedian!
