There's an unconfirmed story from Australia (I believe in the 80s) of a martial arts teacher who ended a lesson telling his students "you can now kill dangerous wild animals with your bare hands." The same night, one of the students crept into a nearby zoo's tiger enclosure to try this out. They found what remained of his body the next morning. Don't know if it's true, but it's been nominated for a Darwin Award more than once.
i hate to say this to kung fu instuctors but if you really want these techniques to be affective you need to think about not being in the centre line of your oppents attacks,move away from the area of where their looking to attack . fair enough it works on your students but in the street if im being attacked i never fight them head on , my strikes and counters allways end up with my body side by side to the opponent or behind moving them off their centre of balance ..a.k.a step off the line
Thats what I origionally said a lead boxers jab with fingers extended is the eye jab bruce lee used most often! He combined the scientific straight lined and lead hand of boxing with the no rules vital point striking of martial arts from a modified stance hence the LEAD STRAIGHT FINGER EYE JAB!
This video demonstrates how things still havnt moved on and its the type of ineffective traditional and unscientific bs that will get someone badly hurt if they attempt to use it for self defence!
Get with modern scientific times! Forget traditional arts on there own! You use a LEAD straight boxers jab with stiffened fingers if you get in close like you describe you can get kneed in the balls!
Bruce lee ranges of attack people side kick to knee followed by lead straight finger jab (longest weapon nearest target)
I like your references of boxing an art dating back as far as 675 BC recorded in the Iliad and bruce lee who trained in Wing chun again dating back hundreds of years.
The importance of the matter is not whether its traditional or modern but if it works or not, looking at this video I'd say it works, of course there will be a different reaction if the opponent was to come in straight a way with a kick but that not what this focusing on, as a technique it works as a strategy it works, I like it.
Its ineffective and unscientific boxing may date back but the straight lead (jab) and rear cross where very recent in design and very scientific and therefore effective hence why modern boxer neally all box this way!
Bruce Lee modified the traditional ineffective moves out of wing chun and kept the stuff that worked he did that with all the martial arts he learnt so your argument dosnt stand up!
You like what you think is cool not what is the most realistic or effective!
I am aware of the evolution of boxing and the arts devised by Bruce Lee its true that boxers will use the jab cross strategy but boxing is a sport restricted by rules and bruce lee may have thinned out wing chun to leave only effective content, but the content non the less derives from tradition wing chun your argument seems to be based on 'modern vs traditional' whereas mine is modern or traditional doesn't matter its if its works or not.

Good explanation. Getting to the connect range is one of the key concepts that many people don't understand when they criticise kungfu.

great definition of an eye gouge technique, and good 'touch' on touch sensitivity, love the old school story as well. keep it up!
