I know come foo
no you don’t welcome to watchmojo.com is
that people actually believe and dispels
them one by one in today’s installment
we’ll be looking at five myths about
martial arts the Hatters chopping wooden
boards of bullshit myth number five
there’s a deathblow which can kill with
a single touch to death how’d you get
together you’ve seen them performed in
martial arts movies old and new the
touch of death which can kill a man with
a single blow this idea is also referred
to as dim muck the hell is a do Mac a
concept derived primarily around
attacking specific pressure points on
the body in order to incapacitate or
kill an opponent skadoosh in reality
however the idea of actually suffering
instant death from Denmark is one that
has no real evidence only tall tales and
pop-culture fantasies perhaps the myth
stems from the slender martial arts
practitioners of old who could often
suffer severe broken bones or internal
injuries from a strong hit throwing blow
known as the reverse punch of course
it’s possible that throwing a punch at
someone in just the right spot may kill
them but there’s no one technique that
will work on anybody at any time and
there certainly won’t be any head
explosions oh my were more cinder you
nonny myth number 4 a martial arts
master can take on large groups of
opponents at once
the practice of anticipating one
opponents move is challenging enough
even for the most highly trained martial
artists but fighting against a large
group of opponents who all attack at
once makes it highly unlikely that even
the most skilled fighter will come out
on top
should recoup going again this is
probably a myth which is perpetuated by
kung-fu and action movies many of which
depict an invincible hero squaring off
against hordes of foes who inexplicably
attack one by one the fact is that most
martial arts focus on one-on-one
competition and therefore it would be
hard to employ them into this kind of
scenario one at a time you will need to
return you will get confusing Wow what’s
more there’s no code of honor in a
street fight because well it’s a street
fight and with rules out the window
you’ll be quite lucky if you’re not on
the receiving end of a lead-pipe or
worse myth number three you can push the
nose bone into the brain with a single
punch yes the classic technique where
you shove one’s nose right up their
skulls and pierce their brain for a
quick bloody kill did you know that it
only takes two pounds of pressure to
drive someone’s nose bone into their
brain that’s what two pounds that’s it
dad
why are you telling me this Louise well
luckily this one’s only a myth as the
human nose is primarily made up of soft
cartilage giving it a malleable texture
that is unable to stab through the
cerebral cortex from a single blow take
you and karate flip you over my back and
then knee your nose into your brain
killing you instantly nasal bones are
located within the bridge of our noses
and aren’t long enough to reach our
brains and puncture them no matter how
much pressure is applied by an attacker
this idea may look cool or effective in
books or on the silver screen but that’s
about as far as this myth can fly told
you so while many martial artists may
get their noses busted in a particularly
brutal bout fear not because it’s not
going to kill them if they stop bleeding
myth number two all black belts are
masters so you’ve put in all the hard
work and dedication to receive your
first degree black belt in karate or
care at a San Carly time to kick up your
feet now that you’re the peak of
martial-arts mastery right Rock the
truth is that a black belt simply serves
as a foundation for a lifetime of
learning it’s the equivalent of
graduating to the point where the mind
is open to learning all of the concepts
behind one’s chosen martial arts
discipline and advanced beginner so to
speak there are actually multiple levels
and grades of black belt after the first
degree with many martial arts
instructors holding true to the idea
that it takes at least a third degree
black belt to become a teacher or a
sensei to a group of students oh there’s
just gonna be an easier way to get these
belts so you have much to learn
grasshopper back tomorrow myth number
one all martial arts come from Shaolin
temples we’ve discussed martial arts
cinema quite a bit within this episode
and with good reason for action-packed
conclu films have been capturing the
imaginations of fans since exploded in
popularity during the 1970s
unfortunately the popularity of martial
arts movies has also led to an abundance
of myths behind the art form with our
number one pick being the misconception
that the roots of all martial arts can
be traced back to the Shaolin temples
shouting come for strange booths of
capture cell where your fall
it’s true that the monks from China
Shaolin Monastery were instrumental in
exporting martial arts ideas to the
world specifically with regards to staff
techniques but other disciplines such as
India’s calorie payouts and pankration
from Greece possess rich cultural
histories of their own with some even
predating Shaolin the truth is that
different countries developed their own
unique forms of martial arts in response
to demanded conditions and the search
embrace unique origins which are though
versus the art itself
