Shaolin Monks

[DarkSoujirox]

the song sucks

[dragonrasp]

San Shou training with the gloves is actually poor training for Kung Fu stylists. Having the ability to grab or strike with fingers as well as chain punch without giant padded fists in the way is better training.

After 18 years of training it is unlikely I would even strike someone with a closed fist. A palm strike is capable of far greater damage with less risk of personal injury to the hand.

An iron palm strike to the side of the head would put even Mike Tyson to sleep.

[MultiGreat1]

@dragonrasp Take your bullshit somewhere else. Kung Fu does not work anywhere except in the movies. Btw an iron palm to the side of Mike Tyson's head would hurt him but not put him to sleep. Though it would put the average Joe to sleep.

[roninpainbringer]

they should be training like they did with the gloves there in the middle of video...it simulates real life situation more

[Beder7913]

The glove thing is not training its a tournament!

[Efreeti]

Thanks a lot for ruining it with the music.

[condorlegion89]

hahah, nice video though.

[nuvus]

dang why does everyone hate the music so bad? i thought it made the video more entertaining

[londonspud08]

@nuvus thank you very much, ya got there b4 me i was just about to write dat the music gave it a funny edge that made it worth watching right through, don't get me wrong what they are doing is mint as fuck but the music made me wanna watch the whole thing

[xtiger77x]

music made the video retarded

[fuitypebbles]

i second that but it was sick because of the people in the video

[hk86]

love the sound effects

[domalmity6]

Get rid of the cheezy music

[carlowabandoned]

the music adds to the streotype that all asians fight to this song.

[jackherer100]

yeah, the music fucked it up.

[skeecats]

the music does suck big tym. Dude NO!!!!!!!!!!!

[CursedCandle]

i dont see whats wrong with that music, it has been slowed down thats why it sounds retarded, the original is okay though .... dont ask me why he slowed it down, maybe he's a retard himself

[Wolf641]

omg take the fucking music out!

[weskalman]

Stupid music. It really devalues what the monks are actually doing.

[CumSailor69]

turn off the fucking music you piece of shit, this is not a music video, kill yourself

[LYNX2203]

i wanna borrow that guy at 01:52,i have a couple of things at home i wanna break over his head....dont take it the wrong tho... i like him,i just think it'll be a joyfull experience.

[JooLannTruu]

stupid gay music

[Damon6789]

I've seen this movie!

[quietstorm666]

lol the sound effects are awsome in this!! reminds me of the old kung fu films!!

[noduality]

Buddhists don't "fight" anything. They accept everything as it is with equanimity and compassion. It is a practice to not identify with the mind and create a self. You see all the physical moves and you're amazed right? Yet, all the true amazement is happening within to which all the external is simply a by-product of consciousness awakening.  This "fighting" is part of their acceptance and willingness to live fully in the moment of now.

[xengxue]

well actually in the old days....people would flee to there temples and they had to protect theme no matter what...that was part of there philosphy.and so they came up with what you see now known as shoulin gung fu......and yes it is "GUNG FU"

[Godhand85]

Actually back when china was in a constant state of war some of their greatest generals were from the shaolin temple, but yea i do agree with some of the stuff you say but they used the martial arts as self defense when they HAVE to. otherwise its just something to keep the ballance of mind and body. and keeps the body healthy.

[Threepwood23]

This is amazing stuff i admire these guys!

[atpforever1]

the song dont fits its not the mentality of shaolin

[minto2006]

these guys are untouchable

[Noshad0wk1ck]

I would love to go to shaolin temple Just to get trained there

[batmannn]

get rid of the song....

[LarsMacans]

I'd kick all there ass's......Shaolin cant beat a shotgun

[akadawg2]

those asian niggas will taer up any of ya mother fuckers this lil asian boy beat my ass last week he did some kung fu shet i was like wow dude teach me he say jus watch bruce lee that wat i did

[evansglory]

what?

[icyrazor]

and racist people always hate chinese people can't fight lol

[icyrazor]

technically matt there are shaolin temples still but, it's only in mainland china near forests but, it anit really hidden you know?

[LkeVelvet]

The music ruins it!

[RockMiss666]

video YES song hell NO!!!!

[ZOL007]

this video is totally screwed by this frickin song

[face2facechick]

song is sooooo cliche!

[kuntakinte77777]

nice song and video

[SchimpanZ]

where do i have to go to get into teir school???

[theforgottenkarl]

tibet

[SchimpanZ]

bother, should have seen that comming.

[mattomucil]

There are no authentic Shaolin temples in existance unless they are very well hidden. Tibetan white crane might still be taught in some Tibetan Buddhist temples, however you'd have to go there and find out. Theres several living Shaolin masters in the US as well. In any of these cases, if you do find a master, they wont teach you unless you have a strong interest in buddhism, rather than the more common, desire to be good at fighting.

[1M1A1U1R1I1C1E1]

IM

[jeremyspace12]

if u dont know shit dont act like u do the shaolin tempel is not hidden wat so ever and a LOT of masters arnt monks and most if not all the masters dont care if you have interest in buddhism

[mattomucil]

I've learned it's pointless to argue what is or is not "Shaolin." You are welcome to believe whatever you like. Anyone who has a strong enough interest in Shaolin will find the truth out sooner or later.

[jeremyspace12]

o no i wasent arguing about who or wat is a shaolin monk are its just anoying when ppl act like they no something when they dont

[MultiGreat1]

@mattomucil An MMA fighter would kick any Shaolin monks ass. That Shaolin stuff was made 1500 years ago when people did not know how to fight and relied on the Monks. Now that Shaolin stuff will not work with anyone except a drunk guy.

[chariotgo]

City Zhengzhou, Province Henan, China

[taijiguy]

Looks like National Geographic got suckered into believing there are still Shaolin monks around. Some people like to dress up like ninja and play ninja, some people like to dress up like Shaolin monks and play Shaolin monk.

[flipz1994]

dude thier still are its just they are like amish

no tech in thier tmeple place

[Ballowall]

GoD! why the annoying music!!?? what the dude was saying wouldve been way more interesting!!!

[Narkoze123]

100% right

[eggbeast]

try striking into a bucket of sand with your fingertips for 30 minutes a day for starters lol. work your way up to gravel and then rocks... shao-lin monks rule

[LDYKiNKLEZ]

im gonna try to put a peper on a wall and punch it 4 2 hours. im serious. i do want my hand to be amune. that meanz i can puch guyz way more than i already do!

[robsino]

You need chinese medicine for it. You don't want to be like those Muai Thai trainer who end up with arthiritis and can't move by the age of 40. Good luck training and may it also be a spirtual and mental training

[chillout108]

good point

[gonzostyles]

this is a common lie perpetraited by chinese martial artists, Muay Thai does not cripple you, my Ajarn(master) was past 40 when he taught me and could still put his shin upside my head. Plenty of trainers in their 40's Please!!!! Stop spreading the lies Kung-Fu is not close to Muay Thai and it has been proven time & time again

[robsino]

science and doctor don't lie. I don't mean literally at 40, because the age varies depending on when and how you carry out the body conditioning process.

[joghurtmitderecke]

the vid is great but the music sucks

[n9thnahledg]

These guys are really amazing. Some live longer and practice their craft for much longer than the "average" human being, but since many of their ages are undocumented it is not wide-spread knowledge.

[ShaolinLohan631]

The full documentary is really cool actually. It's "Myths and Logic of Shaolin Kung Fu". I'm pretty sure it doesn't have "Kung Fu Fighting" on it. hehe.

[ari89]

thats cool..really raelly cool

[boxa888]

awesome we gotta keep this stuff alive

[Bkrful]

L0L !

I know ^^, but its not my video, so not my music, think that the most important is the video, not the Sic :P

[Dmasterman]

Sweet! Bad music though..so stereotype and lame :P
