Hahaha! Has anybody else bothered to freeze frame the video and noticed that the doof in the padded suit is already bending backwards before she even hits him to make it look good?
Is this guy still around? How long will his bullshit carry on. He's a phony veteran pushing a "quick and easy" self defense method. Am I the only one that can see the problem with that?
This is soooooo bullshit... That little Tiger claw bullshit all u have to do is move the hand out of the way!! and that person is open for a good punch to the jaw. Thanks Captain Chris u just helped 400,000 other women do some other useless fighting tactic to get assaulted anyways!
I'm getting sad thinking about all the confident morons from this program getting raped because they thought they'd be safe cuz they were taught to push someones chin.
lol first of all, if someone pushes on my chin like that, i would break their wrist. this retard is just showing what ppl do instinctivly. the guy in pads is falling down like a moron. "captain chris" is a fat retard who advertises well.
For those who don't know. What is taught in the vids were taught to soldiers in WWII. You guys can go and download the Rex applegate/Fairbanes manual "Kill or get killed".
Chris Pizzo is just regurgitating from the manual, there is nothing new and he did NOT invent those techniques.
"Self-defense is an illusion, a dark cloak beneath which lurks a razor-sharp dagger waiting to be plunged into the first unwary victim. Whoever declares that any weapon manufactured today, whether it be a nuclear missile or a .38 special, is created for self-defense should look a little more closely at his own image in the mirror. Either he is a liar or is deceiving himself. Wing Chun Kung Fu is a very sophisticated weapon, nothing else... (continuing)
..Wing Chun Kung Fu is a very sophisticated weapon, nothing else. It is a science of combat, the intent of which is the total incapacitation of an opponent. It is straightforward, efficient and deadly. If you're looking to learn self-defence, don't study Wing Chun. It would be better for you to master the art of invisibility."
The sad part of this shit is I can guarantee that if any thug or low life off the street were to truly attack one of these women they would try to use thius bullshit and get seriously hurt or worse. God forbid a woman is killed or violated using this bullshit.
Chris Pizzo is a fucktard of the highest level and should be put against a real master of self-defense.
Un freakin believable that people believe this crap. The op4 is just passive resistive. How much do I have to pay for someone to teach me this natural response of clawing the face.
Yep. Thats why most WSD programs are useless. In a full speed VIOLENT confrontation, techniquest DO NOT WORK! Women need to train with ideas and concepts in mind. Women need to become violent back! Training for technique sake only is to train for failure.
I found it ironic that he claims Martial Arts don't teach u effective Self Defense while all the stuff he showed me were stuff I learned during my first year of JKD training. Call me a JKD fan but I still believe JKD principles of Longest Weapon to the nearest target, Interception, Economy of Motion, and Simplicity are alot more cutting edge.
again, dont take my word for it, see for urself. if u like Captain Chris's stuff alot better, more power to ya i am simply speaking from my experience
pfft, 2nd rate martial artists at best, your also talking in america bro, martial arts in america are wayyyy corrupt. Someone who has training in fighting will always beat someone without training. Its like comparing a unpolished diamond, to a refined diamond. the refined will always be more expensive.
Gangstas don't give you a chance to go into a stance, they don't fight for points, they don't fight for a knock out. They fight to punish you, they fight to abuse and humiliate you. They do not have the samurai or the budo spirit. That's why martial artists are always at a disadvantage fighting against people without ethics. Martial artists are decent and respectful individuals unlike those thugs.
Yes because every gangsta that walks around with his pants to his knees is some worldclass fighter capable of formidable technique right?
That's a stupid point saying someone trained to fight is at a disadvantage against someone with no ethics. Still waiting for the "gangstas" that constantly defeat martial artists.
When did I say someone "trained to fight" is at a disadvantage. Dude, if you are training to be some street fighter, then good for you. I said Martial Artists. Martial Artists DO NOT go out and look for trouble.
Even UFC fighters will tell you that they will NEVER get into a street fight. Why? Becos ANYTHING can happen in the streets. Your dojo can never ever prepare you for that.
Wow. Three vague examples. That is your explanation. I could easily counter by going "HURR GOGGLE BLACK BELT JONES STOPS AN ATTACKER" but since your supreme lack of intelligence has been poignantly demonstrated it would be pointless.
What a tool. I can picture Chris Pizzo sitting in a nice comfy chair as he laughs contentedly counting 100 dollar bills before prepping to do a line of coke of a hookers ass from the money he rakes in from fucktards like you.
Hi GoG4o2, yeap I know that some version of wing tsun is purely for self-defence, that is very good. I saw a demo at a seminar, it is good, very realistic..
Once it is for self-defence, it falls "outside" the range of martial arts.
Wing Chun (certain styles taught) uses very good techniques for self-defence. But they shld move away from saying it is for multiple attackers, becos no MA will ever be good for multiple attackers.
yes, you're right here, but i think it depends on how many years you have trained a particular martial art; for an example, i think a Sifu (a WT practitioner, who's been training for at least 20 years) will have a pretty decent chances against 2 or even 3 attackers (considering they're your ordinary guy looking for a fight)
and concerning what you've said about 'self-defence' and about falling outside the range of martial arts, i think you're very right here, as Wong Shun Leung once said:
Unfortunately, Captain Chris is a fraud. I've done a little research on this guy. His company is the subject of various complaints for overcharging credit cards when people buy his "self defense" system. The whole thing is a scheme. Not to mention the fact that he is giving people false confidence. I have been practicing martial arts for almost 20 years. I will tell you first hand, it takes hard work and time to learn enough to be able to defend yourself effectively against a real threat.
@davidgard53 got damn. i've been training right along with all these "i've been practicing martial arts" people for years too. i'll be honest with you. most people who "practice" have gotten choked the hell out and beat down by someone with less 'experience' due to difference in technique. not saying i haven't taken some too, but my point is any amount of information is enough. what do you suggest? do nothing? that's just stupid. all humans are fragile and can be hurt.
Want to die? Want to be permanently disabled? Then buy this crap! Walk around with fake confidence, try to "beat" up a big guy only to find out he doesn't fall back like show here, but punches your face in...
People there is no "easy" way to martial arts. Train train train train...
no it hasnt. the millitary used to use boxing and wrestling moves until after WW2 when they startd intigrated new techniques from defeated japan. they formulated the LINE system which lastd to the 90s before it was replaced by MCMAP. why would the millitary ever use techniques from 1 individuals OWN fighting system. cmon the guy claims that u never hav to practice, that should be a red flag right there!
no one will just stand in front of you and wait to push his or her face.and that move is an aikido move(he sad ikido doesn't work but he is using it).if u want to learn self defense do any martial art nothing is perfect but they all help.
Captian Chris says on his website that Aikido doesnt work for self defense, yet ive learned 3 different variations of his "tiger claw" technique in my Aikido class from the classic wrist, shoulder and shirt grab that actually off balance you opponent now matter how large they are and make the palm to the underchin part of the technique about 50 times more effect thus giving one the ability to drive there opponent straight to the mat! He makes claims about traditional MA's that he shouldnt!
The only problem with your statement is that on his website he claims to have studied several martial arts including karate and proclaims that none of them work in a real life physical confrontation because they rely on fine motor movements and control that you supposedly "lose" under pressure, which is not always true! Nothing he teaches is entirely his own made up techniques. He merely took them from other martial arts and then turns around and says only his system "really" works. Ridiculous!
this guy has his own website an sells dvds. ppl who buy them r usually scammed. 1 guy paid abt 40 dollars an 2 days after he received them had abt 400 dollars taken out of his account by the same company. dont be fooled
this is crap...I'm a MA teacher myself, and I think people like this Captain are endangering their students ,giving them false confidence in their MA skills (sic)...
@Sweizzer, I started with judo training at age 7....that's quite an usual age to start training.
dude. bruce lee's style wusn't fancy. u obviously don't kno anything about bruce lee. he created a MA called jeet kune do which insisted on simplicity and straightforwardness. He also said that traditional martial arts aren't useful in chaotic street fighting because they relied too much on a specific style and tradition instead of being more flexible. so he wuz kind of like captain chris except a whole lot better and RELIABLE.
bruce lee didnt do karate, not to mention he calls this tiger claw, which is a style of kung fu, the best this technique will do is send an unarmed attacke to the floor, it won't help you when he gets back up or has a weapon. One of the sole reasons you train katas, in a martial art, is to build muscle memory so you do it instinctively when a situation appears.
katas r bullshit, there needs to be fear based training wile training. thats y theres a difference between martial arts and REALITY BASED self defence
doing anything, multiple times will build muscle memory, you don't need to hit something to build muscle memory. Katas arent bull, practicing then will make your technique better, faster, and thus more effective. Sure fear baised training will definately bear fruit, but its not the only kind of training that will prepare you. its best to mix a little of each.
Katas are not bullshit man. You dont know what they are taught for obviously. Your reality based self defense? The fuck is reality? A disciplined martial art student takes reality to a whole new level, you cant comprehend.
kata is just learning the proper technique 2 pull a move off. but yes its a waste off tyme if uv never been in a real fight b4. u haf 2 understand how and wen the move can b used. u cant do a move proprrly if u dont no the stance and footwork involved
what a lame crap, if someone tries this over a 250 pound nigger armed with a knife, they are gonna REALLY get hurt! krav maga, kuntao, systema, or any filipino fighting is what you need to survive tight situations, not this stupid pseudo army crap
Krav maga is a good martial art for combat I approve it.Kuntao is lame and doesn't use all aspects of your body note they nick name it "chinese boxing". Any type of systema is exellent! Filipino fighting,theres 3 arts.Panantukan aka "dirty street fighting" is too dangerous,you'll kill people don't try it! And Eskirma is used with weapons which are illegal to carry.The only real good Philipino martial art is Pananjakman!Safe to use and disables your opponent. Good choices for the most part!
I heard on the History channel show, "Human Weapon," that even if you lose the stick, you can still pull off Escrima techniques. Jason Chambers said that unlike most martial arts, MA's like Escrima allow you to use the exact same techs. without the stick, only difference is that you can hit harder and further with a stick.
To be honest Ive never heard of Escrima.. Im currently interested in Taekwondo which is mostly for sport, but they do have self defence tecq's. After that I want to learn Systema and Ju Jitsu. I'll have to look Escrima up see if it's worth exploring. It's hard to get into MA's when you work full time.. "sigh". Thx for the info dude!
Here is something else I learned from "Human Weapon;" the ancient Greek martial art, Pankration, appers to have one of the most rigorous traing available. The show hosts had to carry a large log w/ teammates, switching it from one side to another, as well as building strong muscles by throwing rocks repeatedly against the bark of a tree.
The fighting techs. themselves resemble that of modern day MMA, except taht Pankration is reconstructed from different MA, since the
...original source of theis ancient yet "modern" MA is depicted on ancient Greek pots. Anyways, check out this link:
watch?v=qaFekRfd5I8 as well as the creators other vids. Guess I should have typed this as a personal message, but I wanted everyone else to read it. XD
rofl you mean Eskirma!! "sigh" nvm scratch that last comment. Well I guess you can but only certain techniques. I wouldn't go to a dojo and pay the $50-100-150 or w/e they charge to learn a couple tecq's. Find out what's worth your time and money... anything else is an unwise investment! Peace!
the kuntao u refer to is old chinese kuntao, the indonesian version kuntao Silat uses only bone and joint breaking blows, and attacks only the eyes, the throat, balls, knees and joints, is pretty much like filipino but using elbows, knees and head butts, the other martial arts you mention are really effective street wise, the one thing i think we both agree is that this captain chris crap is dangerous for his students to believe this works on a 220 pound ex con!
OMFG this guy is such a fraud!! Tiger claw.. cmon... pull that shit with someone who knows Ju Jit su and you'll see how well the tiger claw works. Trust me you leave your arm completly vunerable and if your opponent has even decent speed they'll grab and snap your arm before you can say "hiyaa". This guy needs to quit his day job and stop dissing martial arts claiming they're useless for self defence. His program is going to get people killed simply because he's teaching the wrong techniques!
captain chris, do you realize, that if I, you or anyone else wanted to strangle any of your girls out there, he would simply do it and there would be nothing for the poor woman to save her life?
you do,i think.
apart from having all those nice chicks, does it make a good profit at least?
And yet you are 19 years old? Damn, if I had known I could start training even before I was born, I would have my black sash already. But I digress. Of course, with prose like yours, to say I don't believe you goes without saying. Neither does anyone else for that matter.
people that see this and belive can really get seriuosly injured. Sel defense isnt a bunch of tecnhiques. All must achive hard trainning, tecnical and phisical to achieve confidence in self defense
Actually, any fighting form can be broken down into a series of techniques. Technical and physical training is most definately a series of techniques. Technique and Technical are two variations of the same freaking word, you dope. And could you guys finally learn to freaking spell already?!? How can anyone believe that you have the focus to be a true warrior if you don't posses the basic desire to learn?
Wow- all I can say is this might work if the guy attacking you is compliant, unarmed and slow....
Otherwise, a lot of women are going to get hurt thanks to false confidence.

Jason Chambers said that unlike most martial arts, MA's like Escrima allow you to use the exact same techs. without the stick, only difference is that you can hit harder and further with a stick.

To be honest Ive never heard of Escrima.. Im currently interested in Taekwondo which is mostly for sport, but they do have self defence tecq's. After that I want to learn Systema and Ju Jitsu. I'll have to look Escrima up see if it's worth exploring. It's hard to get into MA's when you work full time.. "sigh". Thx for the info dude!

Here is something else I learned from "Human Weapon;" the ancient Greek martial art, Pankration, appers to have one of the most rigorous traing available. The show hosts had to carry a large log w/ teammates, switching it from one side to another, as well as building strong muscles by throwing rocks repeatedly against the bark of a tree.
The fighting techs. themselves resemble that of modern day MMA, except taht Pankration is reconstructed from different MA, since the

...original source of theis ancient yet "modern" MA is depicted on ancient Greek pots. Anyways, check out this link:

rofl you mean Eskirma!! "sigh" nvm scratch that last comment. Well I guess you can but only certain techniques. I wouldn't go to a dojo and pay the $50-100-150 or w/e they charge to learn a couple tecq's. Find out what's worth your time and money... anything else is an unwise investment! Peace!

the kuntao u refer to is old chinese kuntao, the indonesian version kuntao Silat uses only bone and joint breaking blows, and attacks only the eyes, the throat, balls, knees and joints, is pretty much like filipino but using elbows, knees and head butts, the other martial arts you mention are really effective street wise, the one thing i think we both agree is that this captain chris crap is dangerous for his students to believe this works on a 220 pound ex con!

OMFG this guy is such a fraud!! Tiger claw.. cmon... pull that shit with someone who knows Ju Jit su and you'll see how well the tiger claw works. Trust me you leave your arm completly vunerable and if your opponent has even decent speed they'll grab and snap your arm before you can say "hiyaa". This guy needs to quit his day job and stop dissing martial arts claiming they're useless for self defence. His program is going to get people killed simply because he's teaching the wrong techniques!

Sorry I meant to say "other martial arts" After all his shit is close combat(mostly old techniques) which is a martial art... my bad. -_-

captain chris, do you realize, that if I, you or anyone else wanted to strangle any of your girls out there, he would simply do it and there would be nothing for the poor woman to save her life?
you do,i think.
apart from having all those nice chicks, does it make a good profit at least?

So you started when you were 8? Now, of course it's possible, and it happens. But I'm sure I speak for everyone when I say likely fucking story.

And yet you are 19 years old? Damn, if I had known I could start training even before I was born, I would have my black sash already. But I digress. Of course, with prose like yours, to say I don't believe you goes without saying. Neither does anyone else for that matter.

people that see this and belive can really get seriuosly injured. Sel defense isnt a bunch of tecnhiques. All must achive hard trainning, tecnical and phisical to achieve confidence in self defense

Actually, any fighting form can be broken down into a series of techniques. Technical and physical training is most definately a series of techniques. Technique and Technical are two variations of the same freaking word, you dope. And could you guys finally learn to freaking spell already?!? How can anyone believe that you have the focus to be a true warrior if you don't posses the basic desire to learn?
