What they are doing is impressive but this is as much real as Pro Wrestling is. This is theatrical "work" based on "shoot" moves. Sure many of the moves in pro wrestling work and are based on Catch Wrestling moves, but it is just for theatrics now. Who do you think is going to win in a fight - a pro Wrestler or an actual top notch submission grappler? How about these girls vs. an actual martial artist?
Sanshou is much more the "real" deal. The outcome isn't predetermined.
So many comments below are horribly WRONG. Julian123, funny that every art u mention is sport based. Wushu training is more then you could ever manage. As to the swords being aluminum replicas? Umm no, they are spring steal and some are combat steel. The actual point of the sword is to pierce between open areas of armor. To even per say then go through the rib space and then into an organ (Via bending) . The Beijing wushu members have defeated some of china's best masters in art and fighting.
Really?? This kind of stuff would not work in the real world??
Wow, you must be a genius! Do you work for Scotland Yard or something??? What about Formula 1? Do you think that kind of driving with those cars work in the real world? Are those drivers pathetic as well? Please investigate this with your Scotland Yard friends and let your findings known to the world!!
dude thats the point, its visually pleasing. its more art, than fighting style, a discipline like judo rather than muay thai or bjj. and it is incredible, evidently you have very little discipline or patience but simply enjoy the thought of elbowing people in the head.
this is the ART part of martial art. Of course it's not about real battle. It's about balance, coordination, speed, agility, rhythm, and reflexes. Testing the full extent of an athletes ability. If you punch someone in the face, it may allow you to beat them, but the true extent of their skill may not have been realized because you got a lucky shot.
You can end a fight without testing someone's FULL abilities. THIS is testing BALANCE, SPEED, RHYTHM, AGILITY, REFLEXES, STRENGTH, ENDURANCE, and COORDINATION. You can't test all of that if you knock someone out before they can display it.
Like I said, this is the ART part of MARTIAL art. The MARTIAL part of Martial Art comes in when you are in war, or are fending off against attackers in a back alley.
Even boxing and MMA don't test MARTIAL ability to it's fullest. That's why they have rules.
@Julian123123123 No, it wouldn't work, that's why it's more of an ART. They practice KNOWING that it won't work, but i'm sure they learn what is applicable in the "real world" before becoming artsy.
Nope. He's saying "JIA YOU!" Which is what the crowd is yelling.
Which, in means something along the lines of: work it! work it! Literally it's something like "add more!" In this case, add more energy, or work hard, etc etc.
There's another voice that says what may be "Cha" at 0:40, around the time the costume piece goes flying off. Hard to tell what he actually means without being there. It could just be a guttural expression, like "humph." Or he could be "tisking" in some way or another. Cha can mean "short of"
if I was in a real life fight that wasn't choreographed and it looked like that, I would be the best fighter in the world. No "real" fights look like that
Wow... beautiful, amazing, awesome, incredible!

It's pathetic because I've learned various martial arts in my life and the stuff in this video simply would not work in the real world.
