  • Lol. Look at the guy holding the board... his belt is holding his belly up.

    And that black belt needs to learn how to tie his belt properly. Both ends should be the same length.

  • haha, lmao i thought you were serious but then i saw the sarcasm

see all

  • 1:50 It wouldn't accidently break, it means you've reached your goal of breaking a board..

  • @zBloodD3monz It does not matter, what length the belt sides are -.-. have you ever tied a belt, it is rather hard. I am just pointing that out, i do not need a hogwash story about you being a 9th degree black belt.

  • Nice tip, I'm trying to condition my hands to do finger breaking eventually.

  • I'll ask you guys at expertvillage, would love to get a reply:

    In Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon" you see O'Hara holding his own board in one hand as he breaks it with the other. This is the iconic scene when Bruce Lee replies "boards don't hit back".

    My question is if this is even possible in real life, or just a film trick? I know that few tricks were used in "Enter the Dragon" - even the beer bottles were real because they didn't have break-away glass at that time.

  • lol, this guy is punching with the bridge of his fingers and not the knuckles!

  • a dojo in being fat! lol

  • @georgethemonkey there are over 18 different karate styles and some of them are quite effective not all but alot are and saying its not a real martial art is incredible insulting and ignorant, and alot of masters 5th degree's and higher tend to be a bit rounded however i do agree about these guys

  • i punched lockers in high school to Condition my hands for karate and i also used my freinds.

  • @789mrking Haha..... me... O.o

  • im a judo brown belt and ill kill this fat guy
