If wushu is any Chinese form of matial arts then why is ninjitsu a form of wushu.... I thought ninjitsu is Japanese in origin. Wait, maybe the Chinese decided to claim ninjitsu so they can do the "death punch" which I might add is way less damaging than the MMA kick.. Death punch= elaborate scheme to make ninjitsu fighters seem more than stunt doubles.

The mma kick and the ninjitsu punch can both kill you. The mma kick is just like over kill.

If I took an ice pick to your head, it would take less force to penatrate and kill then if I used something with a wider surface area. As with all strikes it's a mass x Velocity. When you couple that with the instrument being used determines damage. A weapon with a finer point weighing 5 pounds at 20 mph will kill you faster than a shin kick from a leg weighing 20 pounds going 5 mph.

Check out Stan Lee's superhumans whom tests a sholin monk with his one inch punch, of course it's more like three inches but it measures 1.7 on the scale Glen scored .8. Both the kick and punch can be deadly, but with the kick the force is distributed across the entire shin that makes contact, whereas with a punch the surface area is very small. It's the same principle of physics behind knives, the smaller the area the more easy the penetration.

@vendetta1123 cause ninjas orginally came frome china for ppl who think there from japan, everything about jap culutre (except their samurai concept) came from china and the first "ninja's" were from okinawa cause at the time it was a chinese sphere of influence and the jap landlords took away the weapons so they rebelled and learn martial skill and the legend takes place from there, the ninjas in china were called Lin Qei or forest ghost and operated like the Triad gansters. :)

@vendetta1123 If you can't hit them with the bullet, what's the point? Hitting a smaller and faster target is nowhere near the realm of your capabilities, especially if they get you before you get them.... Sayonara!

@vendetta1123 if you would of listened, ninjutsu uses technique over power, their precise aimed strike, while not hitting as hard, still does what it needs to.
