Muaythai Krabi Krabong 2005

[xXshadowXx48]

i need to learn this

[moji157]

พึ่งเคยได้ยินชื่อ Escrima Sticks แฮะ อาวุธฟิลิปปินส์หรอ

ดูไปก็ค่อนข้างต่างนะ ไม่ใช่ escrima หรอก ดูยังไงอันนี้สามขุมอยู่ชัดๆ ย่างเท้าแบบไทย

แถมการฟาดก็ใช้ด้านคมฟาดไม่เหมื­อนไอ escrima ที่ใช้ด้านไหนฟันก็ได้หรอก

ถึงดูผิวๆอาจจะคล้ายๆ แต่ผมว่ามันต่างอยู่นะ

[Billie4Mozzarella]

Almost the same as arnis

[mindhost]

Is this some form of asian morris dancing? Nice!

[EddieRVP]

Can you imagine this people with Lightsabers???? What would be AWESOMEEEE , new Thai Jedis

[eabjj]

@EddieRVP i liked this idea very much would like to see that really or escrima or whatever some different styles

[AkibaKrazed]

@EddieRVP Kru Praeng can do Darth Maul's double bladed staff demonstration as well.

[LiTTleT1989]

hmm.miya moto mushashi had the same fighting style like this?

[yamasnik]

Wow

that looks so good! so real! its the first time I see a real use of "swords" kinda in fights that really works.

really amazing, makes me wanne train krabi krabong instead of muay thai :0

[sitsutam]

chock dee!

[Bladestar7]

EDU"RE PROBABLY RIGHT> It does look like controlled sparring. Still its very a very good effective fighting art.

[whitecraneman]

lol krabi krabong

[gilmarkonrad]

cu muahahahhahaa

[Bladestar7]

This is magnificent. Questionthough. Are they actually sparring or are they just doing drills? I really can't tell, but consider that a compliment.

[diestroduende]

@Bladestar7 I think it's somewhat controlled sparring, but there doesn't seem to be any set patterns. They're not trying to hurt each other, but they did take hits.

[likeberly]

@Bladestar7 well, I THINK it some what controlled. For example, if there an opening around their opponent face, they won't take it because they don't put on gear.

[nucleicavalanche]

Now THIS is what I've been looking for all over Youtube! Thanks for uploading this!

[strikesubmit]

fantastic video!!!

[Xziz10ths]

very good! what if one day in the future they do make light sabers like star wars? technology does advance. Look at laser beams and how much wattage is need to create a field that can even burn through metal like butter. Imagine if it becomes a reality in the future. Keeping traditions with the blade might serve useful in distant years or early years ahead. The blade might even serve as ar even as a force field against bullets.

Sorry, my sci-fi obession is sounding ridiculous, but its true.

[exodia94]

emmaand ur childish

[nakmuay1010]

E bellissimo il Krabi Krabong!!! :-)

[MRSARU26]

This is interesting... usually whenever southeast asian weapon arts come up, people only think of Silat or Kali.... Where is this at?

[5till13lazin]

thailand

[coldpersian]

It originated from Thailand and I think it is over 600 yrs old.

[strikesubmit]

aye MRSARU...as some have already stated, it's from Thailand. Thai soldiers learned Krabi Krabong as a weapon/sister-style in conjuction with Muay Boran (predecessor of Muay Thai).

[asparton91]

GRANDE!

[carnumar]

good stuff!

[lolugaru]

amazing...

[solunasunrise]

hey thats nice fighting !!

[descentra]

man the kill the the 2:09 fight is funky

[milano1919]

is there the disarm?

[Sinderking]

yes, หัว เข่า หมัด ซอก (hua kao mud sok) the whole of your body can be used to disarming your openent.

[milano1919]

is there the disarm?

[kachalesmi2006]

kachalesmi2006

[guiltybystander2]

sweet coreography!!

[FightingSiamFish]

Yea it looks fake but it's totally a real fight.

[SeijiiNakamaru]

Why did you put sword in the description? Those are escrima sticks...

[Deoz]

This is a wood thai sword not same a escrima sticks.

[EmmaandSophia]

My style is called 45 Magnum. I also know The 9 Mill.

My most effective technique is called C4. No MMA or Kabri Kabrong can beat me.

[Sheik06]

Too bad you will not always carry with those weapons all the time, while you can carry ALWAYS with your MA skills. And also, what if your 9mm or your 45 jams? Do you think your opponent is going to wait until you reload?

By the way, your opponent would neither give you all the time you want to install a C4. If the MA were good for nothing, the military would not use them to train their soldiers today. Think about that...

[YoungBeastly]

@Sheik06 revolvers dont jam.

[MrSolitude14]

@YoungBeastly yeah, but it can be out of bullet 

[satanchrist666]

message to the user EmmaandSophia. I am going to guess anyone can beat you, even a small child. Because you speak of projectile weaponry ( guns ) and explosives ( c-4 ), needed in order for you to be this undefeatable awesomeness. Cowards without skill instantly resort to the weapons you described in order to feel empowered. How would you fair without them? If you use one against some martial artist you are not the victor, the weapon is. Don't pride yourself on what the tool can do.

[GeneralRatchet]

i kn0ow Broad sword( Viking, Claymore, and classic english) as well as katana Samauri, and 3/4... But I dint know that!!! Exilent

[XIPM3]

wow too good....

[theshadowboy607]

You guys really rock!

[MinMushashi]

If you have studied any form of full contact escrima, you would have done some drills very similar to these being performed. It takes alot of practice to get to this level of retention here though...excellent skills!

[mixsalad]

I've done escrima. Repetitive moves will enhance

the trainee's reflexes, eye coordiantion, strenght,

techniques, and confidence. This is important! Because is in real battle. It should only last 5 sec or less. 1 strike 1 kill.

[dragonfist25]

Escrima is very fun to train. Probably would only need about 40% of the moves in a real fight though..

[kyushinsha]

It's not real sparring, jeesh guys, if you think that si real sparring with unplanned attacks you've never fenced, or had a stick fight. Real fighting ain't that pretty ;-) But KK is nice when performed, I've trained it a little, seen many demos, but they didn't like me grabbing their sword hands/arms in close combat, I come from the Dekiti Tersia System, it's what we do. I like the KK technique of keeping the blade threatening the opponent of all time though.

[TsuYan47]

yo talkin' 2 vectorb iv they were in da real battle field it wouldn't be like this at all. they wouldn't be wasting all this energy hitting each other's swords.just like u said "just thrust to his head and be done w/it!"

[mixsalad]

I'll just kick them in the nuts!!! Better, i

will get my light saber and be done with it!

[TAPPHAYA]

cool

[vectorb]

So much energy spent on attacking your enemy's blade, 10+ attacks to the blade to every attack to the person. While i see the advantage in the feints, it just seems like a wast of energy, just thrust to his head and be done with it! but then im a fencer, its what we do.

[benqmp3]

I used to visit that gym. It's real.

[Crimson250]

it only looks similar because they are using the same weapons really

[pavlovedog]

You will always find similarities, after all there is so much a body can do to strike with a weapon. The rest is just interpretation and adaptation...

[vlaze]

looks like arnis/kali/silat/escrima

(those things i wrote are all the same thing n_n)

[EskrimaDork]

It does but there are differences, I just started doing some training, neat stuff.

[trevorsayle]

BS! Silat is not Kali. That's like saying Apples are really Oranges too. Silat is Indonesian and Kali is Phillipino. How in the world does that make those two styles the same thing??? Please don't comment with misinformation if you don't know enough.

[EskrimaDork]

He said it just looks like it, no need to get all riled up.

[EskrimaDork]

No one said Silat are the same thing. No one is spreading misinformation and just because they are from two different countries doesnt mean they havent been influenced by each other.

[insanox]

looks like kali

[boizies]

it's not demo...it's real as a game...i'm thai people

[periah]

almost looks like choreography. it's cool it's not though

[dontwantaname]

dam that looks so good it looks fake but I belive its real. I have dueled with bokkens but I never took classes. I wish I was that good.

[moonrunrs]

I practice Krabi Krabong and, yes, the metal swords DO make sparks sometimes. When the practice blades start to wear down, they get little nicks in them. These nicks catch on the opponent's sword and increasingly larger chunks of metal get flaked off when blades clash. Sometimes sparks fly, and the sword eventually has to be thrown away.

[bonkdaddy]

They're using wooden swords ..

[miyag1]

there good

[UncleSiam]

Can anyone post the dual metal sword demonstrations with the sparks flying?

[KenshinTenken]

Sparring with metal blades doesn't send sparks. It's a stereotypical hollywood effect.

[UncleSiam]

For the demonstrations they apparently use something to make the sparks on nearly every contact. I am merely requesting it. It is in my opinion that sparks DO fly when metal swords hit metal. I've seen it. Suffice to say though such hits are going to damage the blades quite a bit.

[trevorsayle]

Exactly. Using a blade to block directly will only give you a broken blade sooner than you'd like. Parry and it'll last longer. :)

[Danoth2342]

man these guys are good... I mean... I can take someone down with like a toy lightsaber and yes it sounds a bit wierd but it pratice that I put in to get better and they are all over the place... altho I think I can probly mybe... keep up but they're master dudes so probly not :/

[konns]

well, I think this kind of fight uses a lot of energy, And have a lot of no needed moves. But its very nice and efective at the first fight,in the second fight the fighter is so tired that is almost impossible to win

[MinMushashi]

These are only reflexsive drills, controlled sparring done at 3/4 speed. Believe me if they were really trying to hit each other with no gear on it would be either more defensive with footwork, or totally brutal with both combatants trading blows...this is a great training excersise though...

[wsad2]

it looks excellent... and yes, it reminds buki waza in aikido... nice!

[csfreak50]

mmm i love the sound of wooden practice weapons hitting, reminds me of my weapons class in aikido, this looks awesome too, it looks so much like filipino stick fighting, with a touch of chinese kung-fu weaponry

[Sitbatan]

nice! better with some background music...

[Darkersun]

All i think about when i see that video is getting hit in the hands, when me and my friends beat eachother with sticks like that, a hand hit hurts really bad. Nice video, got a little repetitive after a while.

[scottv]

It would look badass on film!

[Aodui]

Imagine how bad ass it would look if they were trying to hurt each-other :)

[Nomad101]

Very impressive, I've heard about it before. Don't you people get hurt now and then with this kind of practice?

[MinMushashi]

After about two years, you get used to being hit on the hands, wrist, arms, sometimes the head. Just part of the game...you just suck it up.
