When you start to understand what you feel you know you would see the clip in a different way.
One could argue about what was shown in the clip, the point would be?
As to your other questions. Think about it.
Many who came to practice with my teacher came from other styles, often having the same questions and doubts
as some have expressed here, most stayed like myself finding something that was unique and answered many questions that I or they may have had..
The underpinnings of what, why and how are indeed shown in the clip.
If one, or you feel what is shown in the clip is a physical skill should be easy to replicate...Most can not, which why they tend to feel its faked, complaint, what ever.
If one can do it they should either understand, or know how, what, and why what is called kong jin, works.
start by understanding that
"jin" is something that goes through ones own body and effects another going through the point of contact to do so to effect
what? ..
It's a very basic understanding between what is called external force and what is not....
The OP posted a question with some ill informed assumptions. There is no easy way to explain it with out first having
some basic understanding....to expound on.
There are many clips of kong jin, fails, there are also many clips of CMA fails.
There are no clips that I have seen showing CMA working as practiced in a competitive environment.
Does this mean CMA as a whole doen't work and is not effective?
