  • a verdadeira arte ninja não é só saber lutar. é saber se ocultar pelo o terreno. ter conhecimentos em geografia e metreologia. a arte de bem falar , disfarçar . " se conseguir fuja, senão mate"

  • WAIT!!!!! in reality he DIDNT ACTUALLY disappear?

  • DVD... yeah sure, I know what you did here.

  • Queria saber por que nenhum ninja é campeão de MMA?

  • @pirillororiz Porque eles são muito rápidos pra você ver seus movimentos...

  • @pirillororiz ninjas ganham com técnicas que não são permitidas em MMA. Há muitos golpes e locks que servem apenas para partir os cotovelos, joelhos, ombros, braços, dedos, etc etc. Tudo é permitido no ninjutsu, mas no MMA há muitos limites

  • Morpheus

  • turn the lights off...HE DISSAPEARED!

  • SuubUrbanNinja@ Amazing technique.

  • its cause hes black

    

  • problem: He's stepping forward while throwing that left cross. If anyone has any clue about what they are doing, they aren't going to step forward like that. It seems that the opponent must step for the technique to be effective. Also, if he panics and turns on you to throw a wild haymaker while you're spinning, you're fucked like Mindy Main.

  • @Bushidobrown84 i think that this is not a

    "go-to" move if u know what i mean. it also relies on the element of surprise. you dont just use it all the time...-.-

  • @Bushidobrown84 first off love the mindy main reference but a lot of people dont know what theyre doing this technique also relies on you being fucking fast as shit and trained to do it its like he says its unusual and unorthodox but i see your point too

  • @ThatTolkenBrownGuy True, the technique really does rely on a lot of speed. Unfortunately, in a street brawl, no one knows what someone is truly capable of. If you saw Bruce Lee in the streets wearing his huge glasses, you wouldn't think he could kick you to the moon.

  • im loving this!

  • Werd do some Shadow-clone Jutsu Or Rasenngan Or chdori Or sharingan and 9-Tailed beast

  • so... you're not going to breath fire?

  • rear naked choke duh... but thats what i would do

  • that's pretty nice, but if u rotate in that awkward way in a real thing u'd get in a lot of trouble, cause u'd easly fall before u complete the tecnique. Next time try to get ur feet closer, and u'll gain more stability

  • black ninjas no way

  • He's not really invisible?

  • pretty cool move bruv, requires dexterity though ;)

  • in repeated practice, you'll develop your techniques. any tai sabaki movement will help you get out of danger because in real fight you either think one thing or dont think at all, you just rely on your reflexes. same thing of your opponent. i practice aikido btw this is why aikido demo looks so fake because the attacker are conscious that the nage will evade

  • i should say instead of the grab to the face :)

  • What if when u spin you throw an elbow to the back of the head?

  • @johnodrum then you better be fucking big, because hel get pissed if hes still conscious, i personally suggest a knee to the spinal column then an arm lock or break, neutralizing the situation and putting your attacker through a great deal of pain.

  • You Should Know, You Helped Me Kick My Bullies Ass..

  • are you vulnerable to an elbow off the spin?

  • Well, when I was a child I started to learn Judo for about 9 years until I was 16. If you look at Judo you can also say "this bullshit doesn't work in real life". I always tried to avoid a fight when possible. A few times it wasn't. And I have to say ... this bullshit did work very well. So why shouldn't Ninjutsu work, too. You just have to be quick enough and do, what your opponent can't handle. After getting close it was always just about what I wanted to happen.

  • "MMA" is not superior nor inferior, with little effort and good reflexes, you can take an eye out or tear a face off with some non "sportsman" like strikes. "Popular" MMA is not a style or system, it's anything that works within a ring according to rules. Conditioning(speed and strength) + mastery of body mechanics and knowledge of anatomy will beat any attacker, trained in "MMA" or not.

  • Pretty cool, though my instincts would be to through a spinning backhand or elbow from hell as he started to move around me, seeing as how he is spinning and part of the time his back is turned to me he would never see it coming. But most people attacking you will be trash and will not have excellent reflex's or martial skills, they will posses tactics used by weaklings and cowards, that's how I could see this working as self defense.

  • bhenchod

  • why you do it in "slow motion" and the enemy doesnt move. its obvious you will win.

  • @emilianocarra You obviously dont know much about martial arts. He did do it fast at the start, and the most the opponent is going to be able to do (if he can even recover from the punch) is begin to turn around. All martial arts practice slow-motion because it allows the practitioner to feel how all the joints and muscles are moving, and their positions. When perfected slowly, the speed can be increased while still keeping perfect form and accuracy.

  • @UrSoMeanBoss yes, i dont know martial arts. but at start (when they fight fast) the contrincant makes only a hit and he doesnt move. sorry for my bad english im not english

  • @emilianocarra True, but the reaction time wouldnt be enough to do anything useful ~ unless he dropped to the ground. nearly any motion isnt going to help in that period.

  • @UrSoMeanBoss my time reaction can "stop" that attack because i dont fight like they. I think they fight with they "rules"

  • @emilianocarra Possibly, but the majority of people you come across wouldn't know what was going on or what to do in that situation. Martial art fights don't have 'rules'. tournaments and matches do, but an actual life-or-death (not duel/match) fight has no rules

  • @UrSoMeanBoss Ok , i dont want continue writing in english. Is hard for me good bye! :)

  • The concept is good, but that doesn't seem to be a good way to go about it.

    To roll around the back of an opponent assumes that your opponent will overextend his strike, and that when he does, he will not maneuver to alter his position.

    If I were to try something like this, ducking under the strike, forward and to the side (taking advantage of a natural blind spot), wrapping an arm around your opponent's torso, coming around behind to strike, or if your opponent turns slowly, going for a choke.

  • Or, if I were trying to kill or severely injure my opponent, grab the head as you did here, and slam it down, perhaps spinning/twisting the neck to cause more damage, and maybe using my opponents hair as an extra grip or to cause pain.

  • you must be fucked now that MMA is becoming more popular and the public is starting to understand that ridiculous moves like this are absolute bullshit.

  • @4AGETE27 In MMA your goal is not to disorient and ground your opponent so that you can run away, you have missed the point.

    MMA is about winning a competition, getting your opponent to a point where you have won by knockout, submission or points.

    When you have grown up you will realise the difference between competition fighting (which I myself train in) and 'classical' or traditional martial arts.

  • @sathos interesting... i feel that both MMA and traditional fighting are useless, especially MMA, where a lot of mistakes are made. adopt a natural style, no conventions. KFM comes close to implementing this idea

  • @ilovetoeatrice MMA isn't useless at all, it is a competition sport, an entertainment form, it is not supposed to be "real world effective" although some techniques are rgeat for restraint and learning to knockout punch is always handy etc

  • @sathos in MMA your goal is to get a KO or a submission, both of which would be lethal on the street and would give you plenty of time to run away. When you tap in MMA you are basically saying "ok you would have killed me then, so I give up". Just do yourself a favour and go to a BJJ class or an MMA class or Muay Thai or whatever and have a spar with some of those guys and see just how effective your ninja spinny forehead slap becomes.

  • @4AGETE27 As stated in a previous comment.. I DO do MMA and no, a submission is not an admission that you would have died, I have never heard of anyone dying from an armbar for example. It's not "my" spinny ninja whatever, it's not something I would have the grace to pull off, I am more of a striker which suits me given my size and weight category (lower end of heavyweight currently).

    Try and bear in mind where 'moves' like this came from, do some reading, be less ignorant :)

  • @sathos there is in aikido a standing armbar and you drop down to the ground and elbow of the opponent, that breaks the ulna and sometimes breaks the nerve wrapping around it. it may not kill but it destroys. nowadays its illegal in aikido as well

  • @4AGETE27 What these guys are doing in this video is, building conditioning, speed and reflex's. It's not meant to be a literal step by step how to fight, do this when he does this, its to open you up to creativity and possibilities and how the body moves and how you can control the other person. Training your body to react automatically to threats without thinking. MMA is about the show, not self defense, its punching and kicked and silly ground hugging. That's what very few seem to understand.

  • @ElectricEntertaiment what these guys are doing is building up a false sense of security that will be shattered the moment someone actually throws a punch at them in the real world. this shit is not going to work in the real world. get them to put some sparring gear on and actually go at it for five minutes and see how many times they land a spinning forehead slap takedown. I guarantee that these guys would look like absolute amateurs if they were put in a real world situation.

  • lol now that your behind him bum him!

  • wooooow al this in the time of a punch

  • I missed the puff of smoke before he disappeared.

  • 1:16 - I thought ninja had good balance..hmmm

    

  • Comment removed

  • no point, they already can't see him ;)

  • video recorded whit a potatoe.....

  • @iwitness bro please I fight for a living

  • that's sick

  • pos from me

  • will be funny if he broke the ninjas' neck XDD

  • I'd choke that nigga out quick.

  • BLACK NIGGER SURE KNOWS HOW TO HIDE

  • @abzz69 keyboard warrior lol

  • This craps don't work other wise it would be in MMA. For all the idiots who believe this crap

  • @SLIMS619 why? i dont see any dignity in fighting in an mma ring, punching peoples faces in like a savage. martial arts isn't about that.

  • @TheOrdinarySwede I'm no Ninjutsu expert, but I'm fairly sure that ninja and dignity don't go together.

  • @SLIMS619 wow i cant believe your dumb enough to even say that. mma is a sport and i love it, im training to fight myself but there are so many martial arts that arnt in mma cause there to deadly.. moves designed to disable, blind or kill your opponent (in a real fight without a ref). In many martial arts practises mma is considered disrespectful so therefore youl never see the REAL fighters fight.

  • @SLIMS619 Youre right styles that kill should be in the ufc i mean after all its to the death right ? grow up fool.

  • coming around with an elbow would be sick

  • Much respect, but this won't work against someone who trains boxing, due to footwork, hand speed, and reaction time. It will though, work on others who are novice. Would like to see some stuff against a boxer or kick boxer. Peace & Truth!

  • You'll find that a lot of martial art segments are the same especially Japanese ones, after all a lot like jujitsu are based off ninjitsu movements

  • funny i do jujitsu and my master (grand master rahim el amein) show us taisabaki. i had no idea it was from ninjitsu

  • With all these dvds, I'm sure gonna become the new flavour of the month in UFC,just training at home beyond my computer! YAY!!

  • He do that head snap a few more times, hes gonna have to find more volunteers :)

  • oh and for those who believe that his opponent wont just "stand there" : 1)he "just stood" there for about...half a second.even in real fights where reactions come extremely fast thanks to adrenaline and reflex that isnt much 2) that half-second is caused by his thoughts "where da f*ck did he go?" or something along the lines before his brain tells him he went to his left(after half a second) so it's unavoidable 3) no technique is unbeatable, there will always be someone with good reflexes :)

  • @thethunder7ulti7 This looks like it takes too long. The guy throws one punch, doesn't look like he wants to throw any more, kind of stands still for a while afterward, and then makes no effort to defend himself when he feels the grab from behind. Against a very bad or drunk fighter, this might work. Against a trained, sober fighter, I don't think you get that long. He's also not gonna "wonder where you went" if you keep in body contact. But if you don't, it'll be even slower.

  • this reminds me of many techniques in Bagua. very awesome

  • In the real field of action 2 out of 10 people trained can apply their skills

  • Hey ummm..

    Can you add like a german suplex to that? I know it's not ninja like, but hey right? HAHA!

  • wtf this is not ninjutsu this is like a street fighting

  • the main point is..u cant hit what u cant see..hell i did try this movement while in fight wif a guy in school.LOL.u shud c he s face wen he fall down.he was like wtf juz hapening??its not the same exact move but by principal its d same.btw,i like boxing too :)

  • @dienocavalera OH MY GOD WHO THE HELL CARES?!

  • hey guys it isn't all about getting in a street fight and beating someone up. this called martial ARTS for a reason it is an art form. so all that came just for that should leave and join boxing or wrestling

  • @grayfox311 The word "art" in "martial art" is better translated as "skill" or "technique" than as "the thing artists do." It's art like artisan, not art like artist. This is tough to prove in English, but look at the Kanji for it. That doesn't mean it's not also an art form, of course.

    Why are you disrespecting European martial arts? Boxing, wrestling, and fencing are just as legit as karate, jiujitsu, and kendo. Being from Asia doesn't make things magical or special or sacred.

  • @TheRichardHinckley Art of the body in other words

  • I wonder if this moron actually believes what he is doing would work in a fight.

  • @trion987 Very effective indeed. This is dream fighting presented to us there. It's virtually impossible to do this

  • to do that, you must move 4X faster than your opponent..

  • I'm not entirely sure if this would be very effect since when someone throws a punch at you all their weight is moving forward and you're wanting to move it back...

    But hell, I practiced Tae Kwon Do and we were taught to just break the bastards arm and then break the rest of them >.<

  • Ok so, deflect the arm, spin, FUMBLE THE HEAD, FUMBLE FUMBLE FUMBLE, turn around and through them on the ground with their head.

    Got it.

    FUMBLE FUMBLE FUMBLE

  • The move here becuese when i punches whit his left arm as he moves forward with his left leg. That those not always happend. I my self is a boxer grappler and mixed martial artist. So I know what I´m talking about. But I can say this, the move is to complexed for an easy attack. With youre fightstyle you should just try to find an easier respons. Like for an example ´pluck´ his left hand with you´re right and answer with a jabb or ´pluck´ his left hand and sweep him by his left foot. from SP

  • the second your opponent realizes he missed his punch/attack. hes gonna move backwards, or away from you.. no one stays that close if they miss an attack, natural reaction is to get back...

  • @v5u7sulh2 Well not always. Some people will try and bulldoze you with attacks.

    And the trick to this is to give your opponent no time to react, or to hesitate once you start moving.

  • for everyone thats saying the spinning isnt necessary it can be when u snatch the head because your using your momentum of the spin to hit the head even harder than if you just went behind him

  • yep, and your opponent will deliver one punch, then stand there and wait while you're doing your multiple steps... even aikido people aren't that naive.

    

  • The spinning is not necessary. Never turn your back to an opponent.

  • man nigga you already black now the ninja costume

  • that is awesome, and very genius. thanks for the upload!

  • I could understand the spin if there was another guy behind him. Then you could deliver a kick off of the spin then throw the original person down...but without there being a second attacker the spin seems a little time consuming and a little to flashy. Especially for a life threatening situation...

  • Looks pretty but not practical.

    1) The attacker isn't gonna conveniently freeze there for you after throwing a telegraphed punch.

    2) Your techniques take too long to execute even on full speed.

  • @DJTrololol He's trying to show you the attack, not do it at a blinding fast speed so you can't even see it....it's called the "ghost" technique for a reason....

  • @GabinRevolution The first time he did it was at full speed... I'm not even gonna bother explaining it to you. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you've trained before. Even if you have trained martial arts, then you obviously haven't trained in a realistic/rough manner; which is why you're saying that.

  • @suuburbanninja were do we order the DVD an how much is it?

  • u dont need to spin, wasted movements = death

  • @michaelkingy355 I said the same thing when I watched this video several weeks ago.

    I've done the ghosting technique(flashing sounds cooler) without the spin and it's FAST AS HELL.

    I've had guys put up guards, I tell them I'm gonna get behind them and to stop me, then I take one step(forward),throw a couple feint punches,move side wards(all while STILL MOVING OFF THE INITIAL STEP),then "Appear" behind them, standing rear naked choke.

    it's like a blur if you do it right.

    plyometrics help.

  • @chrisgrinhard yes you are right.actually there are many techniques where after an opponent's punch you move to his outside* in order to be out of his hitting and on the edges of his vision "field".if after doing that you extend the movement to the point of being behind his shoulder then you practically got the technique down.

    *if i wasnt clear i meant the right side of his right punch and the left side of his left punch

  • @thethunder7ulti7 I hear you bro.

    much respect here.

    You meant to side step so that it is harder for him to counter punch and you are effectively on the blind side of his punching arm.

    respect

    peace

  • BLACK NINJA EASILY BLEND INTO SHADOWS

  • @Vipa567 stfu man..............

    

  • This technique isn't bad. With good timing it will function once, and ONCE is almost always enough. Ninjutsu isn't bad at all either. Several years ago when I was still a Judo athlete, I entered a Ninjutsu class and found it very articulated. What I saw was a set of tricks rather than a "stand up and fight" kind of style like boxing, judo or MMA, but some situational drills like these would have really benefited me as a wrestle. You guys should be aware that everybody falls for a good trick.

  • thats ok but he cant do this with me, or another person who can fight a little

  • @Richardhihi Come on guy, you sound like the incredulous type that needs to face a real fighter (which of course arent busy showing off their skills or beating the brains outta each other a-la-MMA) in a real life situation in order for you to get it. With all due respect bro, if you dont think it works, then why watch and comment over something "useless" to your superb fighting arsenal? Hell, I can fight my ass off and I know that ANYTHING is possible -esp w/ the element of SURPRISE

  • i wanted to do ninjitsu/ninjutsu for ages and did a lot of research on it and i can honestly say for me personally i find a lot of it useless. Near impossible to find a good instructor, techniques are way to flashy and hard to pull off in a street fight and for me I found i was a fan on stronger/more powerful techniques like muay thai or hung suen kung fu. This is just another example for me of the impracticalities of ninjitsu.

  • @mydadsaloser it is not the art that is impractical but the man using it. the point of ninjutsu is to form your own style of fighting rather than following strict lines of self defense and that takes years and years of practice. where arts like muay thai teach give you a faster sense of accomplishment since you get a pretty good arsenal of basic techniques right off the bat. I wouldn't pick ninjutsu as a first art, but after 12 years of martial arts I've now stuck with it for the last 2 years.

  • @mydadsaloser and I would not advise muay thai as a 'street fight' (I hope to god you mean self defense) style unless you have good self control since kicking someone in the head usually sends the other guy into the hospital and you in jail in the real world. ^^

  • @MrNewpants yes but thats what i mean in regards to the techniques. Unfortunately in this day and age u just dont have the time to spend a few years perfecting extremely tedious moves. Also muay thai for self defence (which is wat i meant lol) in my opinion isnt as dangerous as ninjitsu seeing as a lot of ninjitsu moves are at very sensitive parts of the body. ie groin, eyes etc and also id never throw a head kick in a street fight unless i wanted to get dropped on my ass

  • @mydadsaloser Man ! Ninjutsu techniques are like the name say, techniques used by the ninjas its not for street fighter, they are techniques intended to destroy eliminate the original technique purporse is to twist the oponents neck, killing him in the 1:33 in the original technique you are suposed to twist the oponent neck... you avoid his sword geting to his side and twist his neck its not flash its pretty simple if you see for the real perspective...

  • @JJOOKER Ok well then if its not flashy its outdated and impractical. When would u ever need to dodge a sword in a street fight,not a knife ?(and by street fight I mean someone wants to attack u and u defend urself- explaining this to clear up anymore confusion) Also if u were in a confrontaion u dont want to rip the guys throat out or break his neck. if u can soften him up with leg kicks, get to his blind side or back and put him to sleep, its much more effective and wont put u in gaol

  • @mydadsaloser It's a hobby smartass you're not aloud to apply martial arts in every day situations it's illegal.

  • @NotSoLiLMonstar haha then whats the point of doing it ? u may aswell do tai chi if u want to look fancy balancing on one leg. Seriously u call me a smart ass ? watch ur tone bitch, I dont appreciate it. Its illegal to assault someone so therefore its illegal to use martial arts and thats it. Self defense however is completely different, whether or not u choose to use excessive force or not is up to u and ur moral code. Your an idiot and its people like u who give martial arts a bad name

  • Im not tryin to hate as i am a big fan of ninjutsu......However, The spin is really not needed and is a HUGE opening to be attacked.

  • Used this on my brother the other day in a sword fight. Works beautifully for me. I prefer to use two knives for stuff like this. Experiment to see what works for you.

  • Isto que é ninja habilidade que tem da prática esta no talento do cara maravilhoso que pena que não esta aqui no brasil. Convite para que venha para o brasil nos ensinar e que muitos professores do japao venham nos ajudar pk não existem mais delicioso que o aprender e o conhecer . Sou uma aluna do ninjustu e amo esta arte marcial .

  • Comment removed

  • It's funny cause this woiuld actually work ahahaha

  • Yeah, cause someone is so going to let you do all that in a real life situation.

  • @MrLOKILLO15 its not what they do but what u can do bro... this is a nasty maneuver no matter how you look at it, esp. if u can modify the attack via knife, sword, bat, clothesline, etc.

  • @UNVRSLGRTNZ That's easily avoidable to me man. Using that technique you won't have time to pull out a knife, sword, or do a clothesline unless you already have one of those weapons out, in which case you can just stab or inflict serious damage by keeping your distance with the sword or bat, or just evade or deflect the punch so you may be close enough to stab with a knife or clothesline. Thanks for the reply. Never thought about it in that kind of situation. Made me think what would I do.

  • @MrLOKILLO15 well I respect your opinion, but Ill tell u this much: ME PERSONALLY, I would have time to pull a knife out using this one -esp considering that the opponents back is toward you. I brought the weapon aspect because I can see how this was used as a sword fighting technique to parry then get behind the adversary so quickly that by the time he noticed, he'd have a gash knee-deep in his ass. Clothesline (for me) diddo -and I dont mean a WWE 1 either :D

  • @UNVRSLGRTNZ Haha. I was hoping you weren't talking about the WWE type.

  • @MrLOKILLO15 :D

  • I like this move I have seen something similar before but the ARM is locked in the spin great vid

  • Why would you spin around him? Why not just take a step to the side. Just by how it looks it seems like you are throwing your center of gravity all to hell with that little spin jive and wasting time and energy with it.

  • @vanriku because this technique gives you a fair ammount of options both with fleeing or with trouncing him on the ground mma ground and pound style + you have his back which is the worst position for him and all but the most expierenced opponents will probaly be sol and to be honest most people are to blinded by anger to notice wtf is going on all they know is whard he go ... whys it all black .. ugh why does my head hurt ...where am i?

  • and now show me kage bunshin no jutsu

  • Damn, I need to learn this crap.

  • 2:50 a ninja saying run to my car hahhahahahhaha

  • That presentation has so much incorrect terms mixed in to it, it's not eaven funny.

  • @ZeroG84 that comment has so MANY grammatical errors IN IT, it's not EVEN funny.

  • @xXJimboSlice Sure. Just watch for that "line of fire"..etc. ;D

  • it was like he deesapeared. AAAIGHT?!

  • who the heck throws a jab and keeps his hand out there

  • @AdygheShegem Oh my goodness... He's just demonstrating. If he really was fighting he would draw the punch back and follow it up with something else.

  • I'm pretty sure that one won't wash on a martial artist.

  • doesnt have to be "legit" to work dummie. this isnt anythign new...go study chin na, aikido or any other grappling art and you'll see the same stuff.

  • An african american ninja coming up with a super secret techniqe that isn't being taught anywhere else because it is so unorthodox and secretive. Seems legit.

  • Ghost technique just sounded cool to me.

  • Rookerfy speaks as a man who's never fought a good ninjutsu student

  • Ninjutsu doesn't work in MMA.

  • @Rookerfy ya it does,you fire a poison dark at the other guy or cut his head off,works every time,trust me.

  • @drinkbudyXD You = hoodwinked.

  • @Rookerfy steve jennum look it up! i prob spelled his last name wrong

  • Respect to all people who train; at the same time, I love how this stuff only works when the attacker is intentionally using terrible technique and standing completely still as he gets "taken down". Please evolve.

  • "the movement was allmost like I dissapeared...of course I didn't dissapear, but.."..." I was once there..now I'm here", the worst is, he takes himself seriosly...

  • Never understood the concept of ninjitsu..what are you supposed to become..a Ninja? Isn't that a medieval japanese contract-killer? And by the way, the spinning move was totaly unnecesary..he allready had his back! And by the the way...you don't need more than a good boxer to kick the instructors ass, he can ghostmove all he wants...

  • nice video but chuck norris is still better

  • yes, but, will it blend?

  • right rear elbow will give u access to the head or ribs as he tries to grab your head

  • Man if I was about to fight someone that did that ghost-move on me I would play dead

  • Incorrect, Bruce Lee proved this in his Jee Atsu variation when applying it to JKD, which he tested in actual fighting not just 'okay, you do this' and 'I do this' demonstrations. Sabaki fighters would engage him and he would easily deter each of their techniques with simple close ranged inverted shin kicks and 90 degree alignment stances. Not to say that Sabaki is not effective, but it is one of the most vulnerable styles when applied to real fighting. It's meant for fighting at night in dark.

  • By that point, he is already within his "seikuken".(zone of combat). The safest you can be from your opponent during hand to hand combat is either extremely close, or 6 feet away. A backwards elbow wouldnt connect right from this stance.
