    @VisceralAsheslast year I want to give respect to both of you. For you recognizing the optics of your channel " going after" a new content creator and having the respect now for my thoughts, as someone who has fought with a pencil, with a stick, with a sword, and with chucks, i am not referring to sparring) i would rather have the chucks than the pencil, they do keep the opponent at bay due to their speed, but a quick step in and the pencil becomes more lethal very fast. Next a sword is better than the pencil and chucks, but give me a 6' staff and i will be much more confident in an altercation than with the other mentioned weapons. It just works best for me. I agree that the mystification of asian martial arts has caused a very skewed public viewpoint of their effectiveness, but i am not disparaging as i used to train in chi lu chuan kung-fu and see many benefits of the teachings. But they are not the magical, borderline superheros that some people seem to have a mental image of in their minds. ...Expand 7

    @tsk0282 years ago When i was a teenager, i lived in a somewhat troublesome area. Muggins were a daily occurrence.
    i had the bright idea of using a bunch of old keys id="hidden23" attached to a medium length strap as a weapon for self defense and the way i used it functioned very similarly in form to how one would wield a nunchuk.
    so i would walk around with this chain of keys and nobody suspected my actual intentions. The police wouldn' t stop me or take it away since, it was just a bunch if keys.
    the first time i needed them was when i was crossing a remote bridge, that was a common ground for muggins, because it was very easy to trap someone on the bridge cutting their escape.
    i was in the middle of the bridge when i see two men entering the bridge in front of me, and i look back and see another one coming from the other end. I thought to myself " right, let' s do this"
    long story short, those guys all ended up with bloody face and head. No matter how they tried they couldn' t come near me without being hit by a rain of blows to the face and head. They eventually run away leaving trails of blood behind them. Their faces completely wrecked with deep slaches.
    to my surprise mywas surprisingly efficient at 1 vs multiple.
    after it was over, many of the keys were either broken or completely bent and twisted because of the force generated by the flailing

    @greggmouritzen74783 months ago Your rant on sticks i find amusing.
    i have often referred to many weapons assticks.
    they guy talking about forces, doesn' t seem to understand that you can' t put your weight into the nunchaku, when striking. It is all momentum created by the speed of the flailing action. You might be able tosnap it more effectively than a stick, but you can still snap your wrist with the stick and still get a similar effect.
    btw, best video i have seen on how a whip works, in a long time.
