Fascinating!
by James R. Finley (Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA)
I would not believe some of the feats performed by the martial artists on this video were possible if I hadn't seen them here - for anyone interested in martial arts, military special forces, or human physiology, this will be extremely interesting viewing.
5/5
Amazing DVD
by Richard Smith (California)
Wow, this is an amazing DVD. It covers fighting technique and capabilities of the human body. This is very well done, interesting, entertaining and a great video.
5/5
MMA
by Bill E. Olsen (california)
The best thing about this dvd is the MMA episode, it's worth getting just for that. The other 2 are worth watching, but maybe only once.
3/5
Ehh....theres better DVD's out there
by C Martial (Little Rock)
As an active martial artist, I bought this along with several other DVDs.
This DVD was okay, but personally I would recommened the Fight Quest or Human Weapon series first. Both are a bit cheesy at times, but are more entertaining with still a bit of education to be offered.
I didn't even finish watching this DVD, but thats just me. I guess it depends on what you are wanting.

What a load of &&^%$
by W. Lambdin (Ellensburg, WA)
This DVD is SUPPOSED to teach techniques for self defense then show what the human body is capable of.
I will take the self defense portion apart first.
1. In a self defense technique the eyes ARE a valid target; but the eyes are a very small target to go after Threre are other targest that are larger, and easier to strike. sich as shoving the palm of the hand up and hit the chin (the button. as Joe Rogan calls it. a karate chop to the bridge of the nose. a karate chop to the trachea.
2 The video demonstrates two attacks to the trachea and I will refute both of them.
a. the woman who allegedly broke the cartilage of a simulated trachea. Sorry but a woman simply does not have the strength in her thumb and two fingers to break a trachea. I have been around the martial arts for 45 years and I do not have the strength in my hands to break the cartliage in a trachea. I was taught how to break a tracheaand it is NOT with a thumb and two fingers.
b. The man shows breaking a trachea by placing the edgeof one hand on the trachea and struiking this hand and driving it into the trachea by hittimg the first hand with the other hand.
According to physics the amount of impact is based on the amount of mass (the hand) with the speed of the strike.
If you really need to attack the trachea how about a karate chop that drives the trachea back and up, or hooking a thumb or finger and hitting the side of the trachea.
The video tells about the bones in the feet and explains how easily they are damaged; but the creator(s) of the video never thinks about a stomp to the instep of the foot.
The hand strike that alledgely breaks the pelvis. Get real! The pelvis are the second hardest bones in the human body.
The hands CAN and DO transmit a lot of energy; but the bones in the feet are capable of withstanding over a ton of force. A hand strike simply cannot do that. A foot strike could not do that of the Muay Thai, and MMA fighters would be leaving the ring on stretchers.
The holywood vireo "Miss Congeniality" has more accurate self defense techniques. In that movie Sandra Bullock explains the SING method of self defence
S=Solar Plexus. An elbow strike or a fist strike will stun the attacker temporarily and may knock their breath out.
I=Instep. stomp down on the instep hard and injure the numerous bones and ligaments in the foot. causing a lot of pain and limiting attackers mobility.
N=Nose. A fist or karate chop to the bridge of the nose (causing more pain and if you break the nose his or her breathing is going to be interrupted.
G=Groin. a knee to the groin is more pain and will stop the attacker from pursuit.
People with 0 martial art training should be about to carry ouy those four strikes in 2.5 seconds
The ONLY thing in this video that is worth anything is the practice of situational awareness.
Now the MMA segment is impresive; bit so what else would you expect Their day job is preparing for their next fight. Some of them spend 6-8 hours a day in running, boxing, submission grapling, working out in the weight room, etc. They are elite fighters.
