A Day In Shaolin

[rtardx]

0:40 WTF HOW DO THEY STRETCH LIKE THAT AND NOT RIP MUSCLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[barrettsquad85]

RED BULL GIVES YOU WINGS

[mrcanteli]

Nice video!!

[oneeyedjohny]

This is scarey inspiring! I really am blowin away with how many studens there are. I beleave its scarey because these would be the altamate soilders. And inspiring cause I love the idea of chaneling your energy and moving it around like water like the wave effect. And to master the movements by starting as a child is amazing!! This is one amazing way of life!!

[nems79au]

Awsomeness salute from down under :).

[RageFever69]

I am sure thoose little kids could kick my ass.

[miellikkiful]

Whoa!

How it must have been back in the days..It's the first time their actual numbers hit me, I always imagined them as 15-20 monks per temple.Now I can understand why the Qing Dynasty saw them as a threat.

ps: I realize that these are mostly wushu students, but still, seeing them all together just triggered my imagination.

[Mortvanski]

nemam reci

[elbanket]

diosss mio!!! esta gente es una barbaridad en tecnica i arte marcial...yo empiezo ahora y ver estos videos es impresionante...un fuerte aplauso...gracias por el video...

[chechen120]

1 problem,these kids dont speak english....

[turboman801]

no lil boy should be able to be that flexible

[FamilyGuy4334]

can some one please tell me what the song in the background is at 3:26, i would really like to know, thank you

[NifeenAnkh]

Awsome trully disaplined would you know a video or site or yourself. on beginner stretching movement or meditation? in the shaolin disapline? Bascially i am from canada and love to learn. thanks are you in to this or just made the video???

[THORTHETHUNDERER]

M. Night and the producers of Avatar The Last Airbender didn't think to give auditions to these kids!!?? THEY ALL LOOK LIKE AANG, THEY FIGHT BETTER AND THEY'RE ALL ACTUALLY MONKS!!!! Man they didn't even have to pay for costumes in the movie, these kids wear Aang's outfit everyday... And don't give me that shit about acting, the actors acting talents in the movie were HORRENDOUS! I'm pretty sure more than 1/2 of these little monks in reality actually have Aang's personality to play Aang exactly!

[CroustibaX]

@THORTHETHUNDERER Take it easy dude ! :)

[THORTHETHUNDERER]

@CroustibaX no I won't take it easy us asians have gotten shitted on by hollywood for decades so I will never take it easy. (no offense to you btw love the video)

[Goldin69]

@THORTHETHUNDERER and do you think its in a monks mindset that they would play a part in a shit movie like that, they'd probably find it disrespectful

[THORTHETHUNDERER]

@Goldin69 it would have been a good movie if the writers were different, the casting was done right and Hollywood saw asians can be accepted in western society. If you notice only asian females are cast in american media as americans but asian males are always viewed somehow as foreign or non american speaking either no english or heavy asian accented english.

[dj9mhz]

@THORTHETHUNDERER monks can not earn money for showing off there skills its against what the believe

[THORTHETHUNDERER]

@dj9mhz that's a crock they can make the money and donate to charity so that solves the issue with personal gain or materialism.

[failfiction]

@THORTHETHUNDERER You couldn't be more right.

[2000ready]

omg none of u guyz did't noticed 1:55 =)))))) Fail

[hellomoney333]

im not even that flexible

[bigmohabig]

bravissimi ..complimenti

bellissima anche la canzone<3

[CroustibaX]

@bigmohabig grazie mille

[vonshtoyven]

the human warriors of true insight

[ibnoz]

THE NAME OF THE SONG!

[ItachiRoflstomps]

7:52 that routine FUCKING sick.

[showthenoob]

well it dont know much about shoalins

but I did fight with twin hooks too

[1234moonninja4321]

thanks

for the video

wath is the second song?

ellos son mis idolos

xD

[Robthul]

isn't that more show than anything else?

[face40sp]

@Robthul nah brob lol just doing that helps alout in a real situation trust.

[calciem]

i would love to train with shaolin monks could someone please tell me if i could ?

[CroustibaX]

@calciem , check my video summary...

"Content: ****training and monks show****(not real monks from temple, there are more wushu students than monks...)"

you can type epo wushu college in google and there the web site of the school with information...

[danpt2000]

@calciem: if you are older than 15, i suggest you give up training in any form of martial arts. Perhaps practice it for self maintenance, thats it. It requires too much flexibility. The older we are, the less flexibile our joints are. To attempt these movements would be painful.

[failfiction]

@calciem There are kung fu schools that mimic shaolin training. My school specializes in tanking hits and sending all the power back to the attacker.

[metalheadwill666]

@calciem i think its imposible to train at shaolin

[KrazyBeeBogey]

I went to Epo for a month as well, it was awesome. I cannot wait to go back, you got some good footage here.

[CroustibaX]

thanks man, which teacher you had ?

[calciem]

@CroustibaX did you train with shaolin monks ? if so that is so inspiring its been one of my dreams in life to learns the skills of a shaolin monk the skill of Qi that is

[nkosi8472]

@calciem those guy's are wushu not shaolin monks if you wanna learn the real deal try out fa wang temple

[frankthetankize]

holy shit the kid a 7:30 is fucking insane

[talanw619]

what is the first song?

[Remaspil]

battle without honor or humanity xD from kill bill vol 1

[Hateyaall]

actualy a lot of this stuff is for demonstations and i don't think you can use in combat but in Wu Shu forms you can see the realy cool stuff that you can use. The things this guys are showing is just to showoff how flexable are they.

[rakuda777]

*sighs* so much more training to do i can only do about a quater may on a good day alittle more

[1989Anarkie]

lol its nice to see ppl putting in there opinions when they know nothing of Shaolin Kung fu, Ive just got back from China, studying under Master Du the 32nd generation shaolin warrior monk, and yes after no previous martial arts training I am now as flexibli as these kids in the video with also broad sword/Staff training as well as many fist forms and acrobatics training, so dont give opinion when you guys know nothing kk

[imaynaya]

guess to become a shaolin monk have to born again or take out of my mind all bullshit I've learn from school and focus on buddist ':p

[ayayay111]

do they train fighting or just acrobatics? and would they let anyone in, or just chinese?

[Serena2583]

you actually studied it? that is sooooo cool. how long did you study for?

[Italblessings]

Amazing. Wu tang sample right there.

[SuperTutorialKing]

Awesome!

[liuime]

I guess anyone who wants to be at that level would have to be trained since 5 or 6 yo. It is just unrealistic for some who think they make a trip to China for some periods will aquire that flexibility and skills.

[CroustibaX]

that's not true,not necessary... if you have a good base in sport, you can go there for one year and you will get a nice skill...i am 100% sure...

[chingywanny]

not exactly right. to gain that flexibility, they will have to force stretch your body until you can fully do a split. get into a split postition and they will force ur legs until they're 180 degrees or more. to that kind of skills will take years of training but age dosent really matter.

[Grreven]

Well, it doesn't take years... Almost any person can manage to do 180 degrees or more in 6 months or so with good training.

And I know, because I've done it myself, and know people who have done the same.

Just look at the gymnastics, they can to that in about 4 months with hard training.

(Sry I post this now, ur post is old, but I wanted to add this)

[MightySunTzu]

I can do half that stuff, i've only been training for about 8 months. "every day" thats all you need to know.

[flute1234]

you think you can. These people train for years and decades and you only need 8 months huh.

[MightySunTzu]

i said i can do half of what they can. the other half is gymnastics, real skill, and borderline superhuman. i cant do that, although a lot of what is shown is just basics almost anyone can do after a little training.

[CroustibaX]

you are right, it's just depends on the training frequency,

if you train your body everyday for 6 hours during one year, you will probably get the same skill...

If you just train your body 2 hours, 3 times by week, it wil probably take 6 or 8 years to get same skill...

The important point is that you have to listen carefully your body to improve step by step in order to avoid phisical wound and lesion....

[parkour720]

nice in 8:00

[parkour720]

what called that rope thing??

[nr6Friso]

They can jump high, how many inches vert do you think?

[1Soahc]

almost brings a tear to my eye i love seeing dedication very rare these days

[dernizz]

3:26 is best

[Ultimativnaruto]

Yeah Super Cool!!!!!!!!!!

[crimsontided]

i guess it's true, those that know don't speak, and those that don't know speak a lot.

[redvlandro]

this remember me that i gotta pick out my cd of Wu Tang to listening to it again

[xiaolohan1]

the music is stupid i think =(

[metalandnigel]

What is the second song called? please tell me

[walatalalaw]

not sure, but I think it might be in one of the buddha bar CDs.... maybe that'll help you a little

[8triagrammer]

Very cool. Now let's see some free form applications.

[santin4reel]

when you believe you achive.

I admire this students.

i will commit to my training

[DrunkenFist4ever]

Great form shaolin monks! Keep Moving foward on your quest to become a Great Student!

[EvolutionsCure]

Ultimately inspiring and the best music they could have picked! Kung Pow!

[CroustibaX]

"They could?"

What you mean?

[Rohan4basu]

was first song?

[walatalalaw]

I know it's in kill bill, but I don't know the name

[bladnochthesecond]

Dougan!! And a fantastic video! :)

[CroustibaX]

Thanks!!

[CroustibaX]

Lastsong is by Rob Dogan "Clubbed to death" used in movie "Matrix" and also in a famous skateboard video called "Rodney Mullen Vs. Daewon Song" (Round 2 -)

[MockEmpire]

look up Furious Angels, that's the album I think, that's all I know.

[OozoraxoO]

Thanks !!

[Rohan4basu]

Shaolin rules

[MockEmpire]

enter the wu tang

[WintersFury01]

aghh!!! this brings back some painful memories- during the summer i had to do everything they're doing plus more! It was too painful to ever be boring though

[nielzbohr]

i really feel sorry for them :/

No life at all. Only training :/

[MockEmpire]

What should one strive for in life?

A nice item?

The body is the greatest posession one has, and these human beings realize that.

[nielzbohr]

i agree partially with you, but a monk's life is not what i call a pleasure. (not talking only about training)

People should have fun too. Life ain't just training.

Anyway i only speak for myself.

[Tygrychu]

I agree, people should have fun too, but there is nothing wrong with dedicating ones life to something, they are striving for perfection, i have great respect for them because i could never give up things and dedicate myself to just one thing. and i think that it surely is addicting.

[DrGlax]

@Tygrychu The only reason they are really able to do this is because they never really grew up with anything to give up. This is their life and their life only. They have blocked themselves off from the real world in a sense. If you know what I mean =)

[failfiction]

@DrGlax I totally get you man. You start changing physically and mentally once you do this enough, sometime severely. Check out my Help Me video under Shaolin Misadventures and you'll get an idea what we go through.

[Guillermoypunto]

Someone fall down.. 5:44 xD

[bjelder]

lulz at 5:45

[PunkWaterDragonGirl]

This..Is Pure. Awesomeness. UFC/MMA wouldnt stand A CHANCE! GO SHAOLIN! :D

[aethr69]

Haha. I'd like to see the odds before betting on that.

[fangblade101]

Those kids would beat my ass to a pulp!

They OWN! Nothing could defeat them. Not even MMA or UFC. UFC is a bunch load of Bullshit. Shoalin Temple FOREVER. <3

[PunkWaterDragonGirl]

AND..They litterly have balls of steal. o.O <333 YAY!

[bradleyland]

Yeah, that's it. Listen, modern wushu is more exhibition than it is a practical fighting art. MMA, UFC, Pride, Sambo... they all have rules. They're not all out kill or be killed fighting competitions either. The difference us that the stuff you see in this video is designed to "look" good, while MMA, UFC, etc are developed to win in a fight that follows the rules of their respective sport. To compare the two is just stupid.

[aethr69]

right on

[ninjiujitsu1]

lol...come on fangblade, i absolutely love shaolin kung fu i think every martial artist does....

but u cant tell me u honestly think these guys could take a roundhouse kick to the face from anderson silva. its different.

[aethr69]

i wouldn't want to be kicked by any of the guys i train with, they would definitely cause internal injuries. Most are muay thai, im eagle claw and there is no block for a sledgehammer, only a get-the-fuck-out-the-way move ;)

[TheOwnrMan]

those little kids could beat me up

[evanescences89]

solo digo ta wenazoooooo

[hamo804]

btw do you have to be born in the temple to train there or can any commited person train shaolin gung fu?

[CroustibaX]

any commited person train shaolin gung fu in a school if you can afford to!

[aethr69]

find a good gong fu master and you will have more than a life time of material to learn, whatever style(s) it may be.

[CroustibaX]

What do you mean exactly?

[ThaHole]

He means that he can teach you everything you want within that style. Personly i dont agree. If you really like martial arts, not just for combat, but for selfdevelopment, then you can practice it alone, if you want.

[renjixsan]

A good master is great and all, but what will make everything better is if you can find that inner realm in which you can see the principals to all moves and create a martial arts of your own. That is the true ordeal of a master, to create or adjust a martial arts to become better and useful.

[andyman2223]

recon7thfury- i see what your saying, but if bruce lee was to win a fight with a mixed martial artist he would basically have to knock them out before they got him into a clinch or on the ground because most MMA fighters, the good ones atleast, are trained well with grappling, and if bruce lee got his ass thrown down, the fight would be over and he would be submitted

[CroustibaX]

true :)

[recon7thfury]

This are only kids/teenage doing just for demostration and a little bit of the secrets to all to see we are lucky to see this for their deepest talents is w/in by true masters that teach them. Imagine their grown man & how would they fight! ha!! everyone who thinks Brucee Lee was fake go fuck yourself and throw off yourself off cliff that a fuckin Boxer would beat up Bruce or MMA/UFC/WEC wat ever fuckin name it is please!! they wouldn't stand a chance thanks for the upload! True Martials Arts!

[rafaelkorova]

this is so fuckin oweasome o.o

[NinjaRick1]

Wow they're building an army of little shaolin warriors.. I KNEW IT! lol jk, this is awesome.

[Teammatt]

amazing

[ongaqjin]

nice. some of the little kids are making slight mistakes, so you can see it's actually a real thing, but most of'em are _unbelievably_ fast. incredible. wish i could do that xD

[dragracer98754]

wats the name of the entire song

[CroustibaX]

there are few songs in this video, watch the end of the videos and you will see the names...

[youngmak55]

man iwish I could find somewhere too learn shaolin kung-fu it seems the most peaceful thing in life while everybody stress over little things in U.S they calmly never let big problem faze them my hats off to all shaolin kung-fu worship I'm gonna learn it oneday

[antiotio]

learn today ... chack this link : bruce wen, little red boxing, northen shaolin, long fist ...I like the way you said peacefull way of life ... thx

[19Dejvid20]

Neo potrafił dużo z zrobić z całem szczególnie w drugiej części..jeżeli to nie było shaolin to już nie wiem

[ggthxsnext]

did he crack the stick with his nuts? lol

[19Dejvid20]

to teraz już wiem skąd Neo w matrixie umie tak walczyć

[CroustibaX]

W macierzy, Neo oraz praktyki nauczyć sztukę walki tylko w świecie wirtualnym, z synaptycznych Ćwiczenia.

Shaolin Wushu oraz w szkole, oni praktyce wiele z phsysical sposób, nie tyle z umysłu ...

Obie techniki mają obowiązek stać się mnich Shaolin

[antipants13]

only in asia ^^

[tayounorise]

Love it !

[TstAllTruth]

Awesome and over the top to watch! What dedication and sacrifice this must take..

[jaymorris36]

they aint bullet proof brraapppppp

[beertron7]

hah

[iSmackyoux3]

o_o they do the splitz so ez

but after they stop recording they probably will be like

AH!! MY NUTS lol

=P

no offense dont want to cause trouble =P

[FrivoldSunshine]

Actually they don't ^^ from the start of the training they do some training banging their nuts :S so.. well after a long periode of time they don't feel pain in them and yeah also they can't have kids XD haha! but I mean.. the monks find it positive to don't feel any pain when getting kicked in the balls. so therefore : the testicles is negative in battle, make sure it isn't like that. I know it sounds dumb but it's true. those guys can't have kids but also.. they can't feel pain when kicked.

[FatSk8r20]

wow i so got influened in martial arts i weigh about 200 but i am quiet flexible i was wondering how much do u hv to pay to go to one of these temples. and do they have dorms or something like that?

[CaptainHentai]

It take more than just flexibility. You'll need a lot of stamina too.

I'm not sure about costs but yeah they do have dorms and they feed you vegetarian food.

[FCK27]

holy crap the nuts of the kids is like fucked

[mynameisdavid321]

beautiful video ! I like the one at 7:54 , what does he doing ?

[CroustibaX]

[SeijiiNakamaru]

oh yea! lol

monkey style kung fu is great for staffs

there's a chinese legend about monkey (that's his name), and he has a staff, you should look it up

[liuime]

the monkey's name was Sun Wukong, the monkey king

[zportee]

wonderful! i went there during easter...did you happen to have coach jia ?

[CroustibaX]

no,me ,it was lee guangrui

[594205778]

1:55 the guy trip on the left

[Uzumaki101Naruto]

Next time my dad asks me what college I wanna get into when I graduate I'll say "The Shaolin Temple!!" just to see the look on his face. XDD

>_> But seriously, I really wanna go there.

[shaolintemplemonk]

i'm saving up to go to one of those schools

[CroustibaX]

Yes you should go there, its nice...

What to doyu think about my making of(the mix between music and video), tell me if you think there is something wrong cause i want to improve in making of :)

[shaolintemplemonk]

It's very good

[Hursty0]

i'm thinking about going to. i still have a lot of reading though. i was wondering can you at actually train at the real shao temple or will they only let certain people train there? i am new to learning about this stuff, i have only been researching for a couple months. please send me any links or anything you might find helpful :)

[CroustibaX]

You can train at the temple, i met people who trained in the temple...but i dont know how which qualifications you must have...I will ask to friends...

[oxx]

and i'll add no wonder 50+% of America is obese and depressed. And now they take away recess and gym. I'm sorry for the rant but every time i see such videos i really just want to reboot my childhood. btw I really enjoyed the vid, CroustibaX I just wish i was one of those kids. =) *stops rant*

[CroustibaX]

;) go for it!

[oxx]

Now why couldnt my school have been like that?

much better than learning hot to Sit down and be quiet
