@RobMonty248 Yeah, you're completely right. I wish we could erase history... too bad we can't. :/

The natzi symbol is ancient for other things that unfortunatly hitler almost ruined or did.. This symbol isnt just for Natzi's but they did a great job wrecking its true meaning.

@InTheseBooks There are books on animal acupressure actually, but they seem to be geared towards veteranarians, the fous being on healing animals. I'm pretty sure if you're in the ocean with a great white and he wants to eat you... well, that's bad news. I do know that sharks in general have super sensitive nerve endings one their "nose" that they use to subtle electrical (qi?) energy exerted by the movement of fish. If you hit one hard enough there it's suppose to disorient them a bit....

@InTheseBooks Uhh because that isn't quite efficient to take down deadly animals.

[InTheseBooks]

sometimes you dont even need to use any contact at all you use your mind on your oppoment.

[InTheseBooks]

why not also study pressure points on animals too like grizzly bears this would be very useful or how about on great whites in the ocean if humans have pressure points then animals should also?
