Shaolin Kid with Old man

[mesanw]

Shaolin Monks on Jay Leno 1998

[mesanw]

This kid and his shifu appeared on Jay Leno later in life.

[SpielingPeter]

Master Feng is incredible.

[Tigerpaws9097826]

This is an impressive demonstration by people at both extremes of the age spectrum - very nice. It shows what we are capable of. Thank you for the post.

[diangaran]

@Tigerpaws9097826

thank you for the comment

[OmegaOwA]

Just thought I'd carlify that this is quite an old video. The boy in this video is my current Kung Fu master, Shi Yan Feng, who's somewhere in his 20s. He's in Houston now and is teaching the kung fu arts publicly at his school :)

[aznjokernerd]

lmao when that kid drop while doing the leg thing o was like "o shit" it went hard -blomp- but tight as fucked :3

[soslabass]

i train 4 times a week streche but im not flexible ....shiiiit.

[Dragonfighta]

I would love to be able to get into the sidesplit (mensplit) from standing into sitting,but i just can do it by using my hands ^^ how can you train that? is it also a matter of musclepower?

[Neverdweller]

@Dragonfighta holding very low stances on a regular basis can help your balance and strength, such as "dragon" stance and horse stance

[Dragonfighta]

@Neverdweller that sounds like useful information,but can you please explain it a bit more or easier (I`m not a native english speaker,so I dont quite get what you mean by that dragon and horse stances)

[Shaolin0871]

Truly amazing!

[eatalllot]

lol, they remind me of monk gyatso and aang from avatar: the last airbender

[hisagisan]

Hey, look, it's avatar!

[mangoman]

If i was born as a monk i would be so happy

[azzachan3]

or really sad you have to be a monk your whole life

[SluggerJR]

@Chan3. I find it more disappointing to be a drunk without discipline that becomes a burden to the world then dies.Living an unfulfilled life without purpose in a monotonous society.Accomplishing absolutely nothing,but establishing how much greed they have for their selves and how much more important their goals were than others who aren't 'family'. I can tell you one thing, I doubt you'll ever see one of these monks selling drugs or being the stereotypical fat and depressed spoiled american.

[dorkforceti83]

He should start practicing eagle claw style so just in case a white haired iron armour master takes over china he can defeat him by attacking his 136 pressure points and discover which one is vulnerable. However he would need to do that in 10 passes or he'll be killed.

[TaeNapDo]

woh.. this kid has real talent, if he keeps training like this, he might be a master one day..

[thewakasensei]

forte sto bimbo...

[Lai829]

sometimes i wish i was born in china. i could be training in the temple and be as good as the shoalin kids..

[punkrokr12]

I used to do 0:06-0:39 it's just that my mom called it a tantrum....who knew i was a kung fu master?!

[Untamedcelica]

lmfao

[truongcan89]

dat master shi yang feng back when he was lil

[AfroAce]

When this kid gets older,he is gonna be kicking some ass!!!!

[nichuss]

i think this video would go better with that song "Kung Fu fighting" hahhahaha

[vollqqq]

this "kid" is about 22 now, he's master in Kung Fu school

[blueblazeboy]

wow my mandarin lessons really paid off

[crispin165]

i want to train in shalion

[Super3Dom]

I'm 17 years old and I have a black belt in karate

But I'm still afraid of that little kid :P

[eddy1743]

wait till the kid has 18 :)

[StL33T]

bet the kid would still beat his ass even now

[ziswise]

U should be fckng proud

[masterchiefazn]

I always wish I could learn shaolin kung fu. (sigh) -_-

[mmnan]

me too........

[conrad4ever]

wow that thing with the head rolling around looks painful.

[rthdshtr]

yeah shaolin has a special move translated into "steel head" where they litterally use their head to break things or attack. They train everyday with hitting their heads on sand bags, walls, etc. a shaolin monk's head is around 4 times stronger than regular humans. And since the head is most important, so the skull protecting it must be hard

[telofav]

Its kuririn

[sluseter2123]

Whoaaaaaaa, super kid.

[FreezingMoonFog]

thanks

[MockEmpire]

an explosive particle in the soup of the universe

[Valyk126]

these guys have lifelong vitamin b 12 deficiency due to there vegatarian lifestlye and they also cant ejaculate lol

[LordoftheMoves]

the old man is shi wanheng, he lives in austria and teaches in the austrian shaolin temple

[Farqual0071]

there is a temple in austrian? :D

[LordoftheMoves]

yes and in germany and many other countries too

[starskyjuan]

es increible, un estilo de vida interesante...

[biohazerdfilms]

i would trade me soul to have the honour of being trained as a sholin.

[hamo804]

me too :'(

[Oneiii]

@biohazerdfilms couldn't agree more!!

[indomitusEvehementis]

This is one of those moments when I wish I knew kung fu to tiger fist my balls for not being able to understand anything being said in a foreign video... I love everything that has to do with asian culture...

[PRINCEADE9]

me to

[NickyDaMan]

the beginning was sick but it all went downhill from there

[lisergitek24]

assurdiiiiiiiiii

[knightrockuc]

ì think its awsome and crazy ..move r so clean but kid look sad he need to play whit kid...kids stuff too much training lollllllllllll

[joey4lyfe2007]

that was fucking baddass when that kids did the splits all the way up to his head then falls down while still in the split stance. That looked like it would of hurt but lol he got up like nothing even happend.

[ffff214]

you dont understand traditional Chinese.

[viksvoris]

I see u know something, so can shaolin monks have sex with a woman? I'm asking seriuosly.

[maagkanker]

cant

[viksvoris]

Bahh... so sad :|

[t1shum]

They can, look to the american shoalin monk he got a kid but still is a monk. Some sort of temple revolution

[VegetoStevieD]

The question then becomes-

Did the rules change because the old dogma was false, or because the current generation no longer carries the knowledge of why someone would refrain from sex, and how?

It is more important to know the reason for the rules, and act only according the reason itself, than to follow the rules blindly. However, if one is changing the rules blindly, how will anyone ever learn the reason?

[SatanicSanta]

Probably the best comment I've seen on youtube.

[tenmanotenshi]

he is no longer considerd a monk because he left the temple, the fact that he is a father now makes him even less of a monk, it is not a bad thing, but still, one is no longer a monk once they leave their temple

[blackrainuponus]

They're not allowed to masturbate either. It's believed that sperm contains chi, so to masturbate would lower your spiritual energy.

[VegetoStevieD]

'Not allowed' is a mistake. It's like saying that a monk is 'not allowed' loose his footing when performing a kick. If the monk is working towards his goals with the right intention, there are no rules, only guidance. And loosing sperm is no better than slipping and hurting yourself.

Same thing, but different perspective.

[xubermanx]

Well, the ones that move away to places like America sometimes do; they aren't really monks after moving. My old master in America ate meat for lunch a lot and the grand master where I live actually has a wife back in China.

[dmtau]

Very good classic dance.

[terryagyekum]

damn that wus so cool.

[FightingWarrior]

As usual, modern Wushu gymnastics, no way Kung Fu or any other traditional stuff.

[SINUKAYA]

two out of three kids in america are obese...lol

fat lazy Mcdonald eating bastards

[nogossa]

this's model kid of humanity

[foongsteven]

Below is my loose translation. Some of the interviewer's voice is inaudible. In some parts, the monk's accent is way too thick for me. Only the monk's answers are provided here - the interviewer kinda, um, suck.

[foongsteven]

Tong Zi Gong (Kids Martial Art) is an art that you practice from young. You will become more flexible - the greater the flexibility the better.

TZG's hallmark lies in the fact that kids can learn this. People like me, at the age of 78, can no longer practice TZG.

You practice from a young age, and practice it often. If you do not practice it for a long time, you will lose it.

[foongsteven]

Translation continues:

When you grow old, you will not fall sick easily. You will have a healthy body and can walk quickly. You will maintain a flexible body, just like a kid.

Practice this every morning 5a.m. until 7a.m. 60 to 90 minutes a day is also sufficient.

Train in the morning and at night. Train twice a day.

Sometimes when you are not feeling well, you can stop for a day or two. Once you recovered, you should quickly practice again.

[hebbent]

it it good as you train martial arts at 13 and can you be as good as some fighters like shaolins???

[foongsteven]

Well, Bruce Lee started kind of late too, so you may be able to learn something else - probably not Tong Zi Gong though.

[Agent5864]

3 laws!

1: You may not kill

2: May not marry a female

3: Must be a male

[stevethemoose]

It sets them up really well for practically any job they want in the future

[Teejayflex]

wumtimes i think if i were to be raised as a monk

[Blissi18]

Is this in Burma? or China?

[TSshisan]

Chinese characters and Chinese speaking so..

[5till13lazin]

china bro...shaolin monks of the north and south

[Selendomono]

I can't see modern China employing Shaolin monks into their military, but I may be wrong... It would've be a great asset back in ancient times. Not so sure how good they'd be now, with modern warefare tactics.

[oism]

because of their 5 disciplines ( something like that) and their 3 laws 1 of their laws is

You shall not kill.

[NInjas0]

I kick the lot of there ass... nah.. im kidding...

[zboi13]

they hurt their heads soo much, they must be brilliant at fighting and thats about it... for the most part

[CainTheMain]

I bet that kid could dodge a bullet, he so good he would stop the bullet in mid air I bet.

[azianmafia94]

The little kid is my master, Shi Yan Feng. He is in his 20's and currently lives and teaches in Houston, TX.

[zjj357847578]

the kid come from dragon ball

[091101]

hahahahaha, thats my shifu

Shi Yan Feng

he currently teaches in houston

[UchihaItachi8989]

Shaolin monks learn english, and they socialize among other monks. And computer is addictive, it's not worth knowing it. They can speak English and Chinese so that's good and they can fight. China is getting powerful so who knows.

[ELxxPico]

That kid could probably take on the old dude easy.

[shortbreadninja]

im going to train in China this summer ^_^ i can't wait!!i know i wont be as good as the kid though hahaha

[madeworld]

I wish I had time to do this, but think about it, this little kid will most likely never learn how to write or read, mathematics, biologic or physics.

He won't be able to use a computer or understand a movie in another language. I feel bad for him at the same time as I'm feeling good for him. :|

[synikster]

I beleive they do have schools in shaolin as any other place in the world would. They are taught not politics, etc. But they are taught to be how every good person should be. Kind at heart to everything and anyone in the world. Unlike society nowadays, they are taught to do no good to mankind.

[hina123avis]

wow!!

[TrEkKiE2k7]

i could kick that little shit's ass

[ninjakid6]

wat ever he would kick yo ass

[matthew1440]

Hey TrEkKiE2k7 just wait 10years and go to a Monk's temple to challenge a student there.

I bet u'll get pwned by them or u'll just cower away from the fight.

[TrEkKiE2k7]

yeah?

[Ghostx99]

A person on YouTube is claiming himself stronger then a shaolin monk... LOL

[youngmallet]

lmao

[georgyfontaine28]

He might or might not be right about the straight part. But as far as endurance, flexibility, speed, skill and brains. He's vegetable compared to those guys.

[georgyfontaine28]

im talking about you TrEkKiE2k7

[rottentreats98]

well i wish i could go to the temple and train but liveing there call me what ever you want but i just gotta hav my XBOX and PC but yea i know what you mean

[shaolintemplemonk]

I wish my mother abandonandoned me at the temple

[rottentreats98]

you giv a redneck a computer and he cant even spell heu heu heu and its a fact. no or is it a sterio typ heu heu heu

[hasanshukur]

u give a monk a book he cnt even fukin read it lmao

das how braindamaged dey become after der skulls r hardened and its a fact

[matthew1440]

No, they can read. They study after training and doing chores. If not, then how they learn the scriptures of Buddha. Idiot.

[hasanshukur]

scriptures of buddah werent ritten by buddah himself sumone came up wid dem but buddah dey learn by heart

and its spoken to them thru parables

shaolin dusnt work in da real world

xxits good for free running

xx

[rottentreats98]

hey i was wondering if any body has more info. on how and why the kids get to the temple like abandoning at the temple and if mothers who hav bad children ever send them to the temple for reforming cuz when i see the shaolin kids show that level of technique and disaplin it kind of sad'ns me when i see this then see a kid much older throwing a fit in a department store if you know what i mene

[billytheimpaler]

What "sad'ns" me is illiteracy, "cuz" it bodes ill for our society. Maybe illiterates should have shown more "disaplin" in their studies. Good luck with your delinquent demon seed.

[hasanshukur]

illeterates?? muhammad the greatest man that ever lived was an unlearned man nevr read a book and denb became d greatest man to evr live..not 1 mistake did he makexx

[billytheimpaler]

Mohammed was a petty bandit and pedophile (that's what one is when one has sex with a nine year old, like Mohammed did). Only Jesus Christ made no mistakes. Mohammed is roasting in the lake of fire right now.

[rightwingpob]

at least my parents didn't abandon me on a temple step when I was a baby

[macio1990]

i napierdalaj sie z takim gówniarzem :/ :D(video is cool :D)

[boeyaka]

dude i dont understand what you mean mma+bjj what makes mma mma is bjj

[boeyaka]

4 sure you surly have seen the shaolin monk vs olympic taekwondo guy video

[snakethemack]

Hey! WE do the same warm up exercises in my Gungfu class! Cool.

[diangaran]

very nice !

[mikez786]

so do i

[boeyaka]

20 years later this guy can easily beat any ufc guy... today "martial artist" bring shame to its name this is how you must train other wise you get youre ass kicked by kickboxers and mma guyz

[KatanaGiri]

what are the prerequisites for becoming a shaolin monk?

[Kakarot21591]

I think anyone can GO to the temple. There's special programs where you can pay fees that are actually quite low because of China's communism, but I believe to LIVE at the temple you have to be admitted by the abbot at a very young age so that you can begin training immediately.

[bo0oko0o]

i always want to be a shaolin monk 2...

till now.. now im training one...

im glad my dreams came true

[kraziestylecrew]

this shoalin temple is over 1500 years old....so much history..

[yamsuka]

but they dont hit their balls, the impact is absorbed on the entire inner leg.

[ramelo07]

chinese culture is the best

[snakethemack]

well, thank you, my friend.

[kiatmac1]

no offense to the chinese, but i still like persian culture =D

[cumshtr]

well offcourse you do i mean you're persian, but i find all cultures individually interesting.

[kiatmac1]

PERSIAN RULE =D

[Megatokyo1991]

Aww...when the boy shout at 00.25 it's a lil adorable..but..deadly..

[BeatboxMitchel]

every time i watch that kid doing that split it hurts my nuts:P:P lol

[KosyenElef]

This guy would slaughter me so easily... xD

[diangaran]

whaha, perhaips he does...

and their is a school/tempel where only girls trian shaolin

[KosyenElef]

xD lol

[KosyenElef]

Not sure... i don't think so... but there were marital art clans for nuns. Like a woman shaolin pretty much

[diangaran]

don't be sorry for all the comments...

i have checked your video's from norway...nice

ps, very good that you still train and keep in shape !!!

[kiatmac1]

that kid probably has a six pack, crazy ass kip-ups hahahaahahahha awesome

[diangaran]

your probably right about the six pack, lol

[01blabliebla01]

cool!

[diangaran]

thnx

[azianmafia94]

hey that's my master!

[LFJ]

i guess we should also name the "old man", who is one of the monks that restored shaolin and its tradition.

he is master shi wanheng and resides at the shaolin temple in austria.

[diangaran]

True, well spoken

[ericinghammontevista]

who gives a shit?

[hoogax]

The kid is Shi Yan Feng who teaches now in Houston.

[diangaran]

Right, nice to see how they get older but still remain their skills

[diangaran]

wow really, that's very nice. Then you will be still flexible when you practice everyday my friend.
