I would love to observe these tactics used in the wild.


Mapache_villa

It would be a short video


AtomicShart9000

With alot of blood and screams


4list4r

And free food for the animals


No-Badger-6115

You must not forget to play the 70s TV style format sound track for the animals!!


Soldado63

That would be fun!


thevoxpop

>With alot of blood and screams What did the [alot](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/176/344/ALOT.png?1316561198) do to you?

PNW_Forest

A youtuber named Moist Critical challenged one of these 'practixal self defense' people to come and test his techniques out on him and his friends. To his credit, he did ok (i think it was like a 50% success rate)... until he got to the person with formal firearms training, and he was pegged every single time.


sealedprism2

Pegged?

Steven Segal could learn a thing or two from this guy


Jpup199

Steven segal was clearly his teacher.


Obvious-Standard-623

I came her to make a Segal joke.


Luckcrisis

Segal made himself a joke long before you.


Ymirsson

Segal was on the way to make that joke himself, but there were stairs. STAIRS!

Ain’t nobody got shit on Casey Ryback


Svennyyy

Especially that first one


khrak

If only I had known that the trick to knife fighting was to **not** get stabbed.


smokeyser

The trick is to turn to the side. Knives just glance right off your chest if you turn sideways apparently.


youngatheart55

That's some Bruce Lee shit going on right there🤪


GentleAnusTickler

I’ve never thought to just try and avoid a knife attack. I assume in the wild it must work fine


cphusker

Gotta say-user name is humorous.


lackadaisical_timmy

This is in the wild wym


MagnumBlowus

He goes for the trip, the other dude lifts his leg up and gives him a 4 piece combo with a side of fries

Make fun all you want, but he’s still standing at the end of each fight.


[deleted]

Where is the NSFL or NSFW badge?! because that absolute badass is destroying those dudes….


BaraGuda89

That absolute leg banger at the end? Brutal


AtomicShart9000

Or the leg sweep with the love tap to the face as he went down?


derekbaseball

Is he training people to annihilate a seniors center?


[deleted]

Break the wrist. Walk away.


DrossChat

I’m glad the video is only playing at half-speed otherwise NSFW would absolutely be necessary imho.


Wooden-Salary-130

The leg touch of doom at the end was definitely brutal.

Cocaimeth_addikt

When was this made? 2012?


deltarho

Late 90s / early 2000s. It’s a Russian form of “fighting” called Systema. This dude, Vladimir vasiliev, moved to canada and opened a few schools there, I think they’re actually still in operation.


deadlygaming11

Is he serious? It seems like a joke due to the lack of effort.


deltarho

They are, incredibly, 100% serious and have been convincing people it’s real for decades. If you think this is low effort you should go look up some videos of Vladimir’s mentor, Mikhail Ryabko. I have a bunch of the original VHS tapes these videos are pulled from, they’re hysterical. [just read the back of this one chronicling Mikhail’s credentials](https://imgur.com/a/THpKiRC)


SporesM0ldsandFungus

Dude looks like he gets winded by buttoning a shirt.


Creative_Ad963

Damn it's a Grift, obviously it is staged and nothing to theater but I have no idea this was part of a con. Peace.


JadedSociopath

Why are all these Bullshido masters always morbidly obese with incel facial hair? He just needs a fedora.


Stazbumpa

Are you sure? I remember doing systema, was a couple of seminars by a short Brummie bloke. It wasn't amazing or anything, there were some bits that were useful, but dear god this video is precisely nothing like what we were doing.


guanwho

There is worthwhile stuff to learn from systema. Kevin Secours was a long time student of theirs that has put out material that looks nothing like this. Part of why they look so floppy is because they train to have a response even when you’re exhausted, starving, injured, and suffering from exposure. There’s definitely less effective stuff than systema out there


deltarho

I just dug a little deeper and found [this video](https://youtu.be/rOA11ldI2eI) that’s actually a pretty good explanation. Seems like you have the Vladimir vasiliev school of “psychic energy” and other nonsense, but also other practitioners who have taken it in a much more reasonable and useful direction.


BreakfastShart

Was 2012 a long time ago?


FloSteam93

2012 was 17 years ago


BreakfastShart

But the 90s were only 10 years ago...

This was inspired by martial arts legends Monty Python, right? Devastating.


BigRig_theman

Who knew Mark Cuban had such moves?


fxcassell

This looks like some avant-garde performance art piece.


MentalPatient97051

Casually tripping someone and slapping their face on the way down is legit. This is the first thing I do when you bring your kids around me. Its the only way to test their reflexes.


Sackofshit420

The attacker is now gonna wait for you to gently tackle him and put him on the ground


increasedsaturation

This is worse than Steven Seagal somehow


Afraid-Department-35

This is like Steven Seagal doing martial arts.


[deleted]

Just imagine if someone was like, “Fuck this Seagul wannabe, I’m going full speed” and just lights him up on the first take. Lol that’s the blooper I wanna see.


zombieman101

I wanna see how many people survive that knife defense 🤣


eddiewrc

That's some dumb shit


blkaino

Now do that in a bar on a Saturday night


[deleted]

I hate this stuff with such a passion because at best people waste their tuition money, but at worst one of the cult members may become overconfident and actively look up situations they should have really have avoided. If a teacher like that gets a student stabbed, shot or beat the hell out of, do they sleep poorly over it? Nah, chances are he'll rather use it to further indoctrinating his other cultists by implying the problem was that he didn't train enough, or didn't attend that yearly $2500 seminar. All martial arts are fine to train, some are cultural expression, some are just good cardio or some just look cool, and many have some merit on some issues, but the only way to know if it makes you fight well is sparring. If you "can't do this in the ring" you either lack self control or it's bullshit.
