First, good video. Second, although I practice the ear slap, my reality is to do closed fists strikes becuase open hand strikes and blocks are too prone to spraining fingers and wrists. You can say you are so good you won't have that problem, but for me, I'll take the closed hands. Things move to fast in a fight that present the hand not hitting just right, leaving too much leverage for the fingers and wrist to get damaged. Anyway, that's my route of action.

As well if you watch Vunaks video youll see him make a point to mention the action of the wrist. In fact the ear slap can be worked out of the clinch and when grappling. Smashing so hard into the skull could easily cause wrist injury if you land wrong the odds are always against you. TO take it and make it a hard handed smash instead of the slap will take the uncertainty of the effectivness out because if it misses it could still sweep his arms down enough to best him and drive him back or down.

@muaythaimark perhaps it was bad word choice I'm saying in terms of combatives, survival type fighting this technique is not effective and puts a ton of strain on the shouder after you train it for a long period, the ear slap needs only be hard enough to force down a few pounds of air pressure to do the damage, with the force he's using why not straighten and stiffen the arm so in the event you miss youre still crashing into him, or his guard. I'm just saying it makes too many presumptions.

@junfan4 I don't understand what you're saying. I don't think you can say "it wont work". It might work.  It can work. You might hurt your shoulder, true. You might break your fist on some guys skull. You might slip and bust your head. Anything can happen, street fights are not pretty. Maybe I'm missing your point, because it seems like you say your girl has used it but it wont work. Also, much less chance of hurting the wrist with a slap than a punch or palm strike.
