  • @prince24mathew ...Watch the videos i suggested, that's real KungFu. Nothing close to Kalaripayattu at all, not even a slight resemblance. FYI, Kalaripayattu has animal forms as well, but it's not the same form & technique as KungFu's animal forms.

  • @prince24mathew ...Why block a shin kick that low with your hands if you can just simply move out of the way or block it with you feet. Every time you put both hands down you leave yourself wide open. More importantly, why would you execute a kick like that. Show me factual credible proof that Bodhi taught any martial arts, not a fictional book & certainly not a story about the Bodhi myth, the key word is "MYTH". That means non-factual & fictional.

  • @gbb357 and again all of this happened centuries ago.things change mann.kalari it self has 3 diff forms and again all the ancient forms still exists .though practised by very few ppl n ya the southern form has similarity with actual kungfu.not the styles the monks developed later ..not sure if monkey n crane n stuff will work in a real fight ..when i say real fight m not talking bout a ring with a referee .m talking bout a real street fight ..if u get into real sh*t.u cant stand n play monkey

  • @gbb357listen i guess yr confused ..every arts got its own form of practicing ..lets say for eg karate uv got lotsa kathas rite ..what they are doin is a small part of the art ..there are 100 ways of blocking it ..n again don tell me that u cannot use yr hand s down n block a kick with out gettin hit .. :-) n bhodhi dharuma did teach shaolin an ancient form of indian martial arts which shaolin accepts aswell.

  • @prince24mathew ..Here's two more. Titled, "Shaolin Monk vs Taekwondo Master" this is a demo, and this one, actual competition, titled "Kung Fu Master vs Taekwon Do Black Belt". Again, that's real KungFu, no similarities whatsoever with Kalaripayattu or any other Indian martial arts.

  • @prince24mathew ...Watch this demo video titled "KUNG FU vs TAEKWONDO", that's a demo & that's KungFu. FYI, TKD is derived from KungFu. BTW, that's from the show fight science, i think.

  • @prince24mathew ..No kidding it's a demo. Demos usually looks more fluid & choreographed. That kick is a simple kick to the shin, in a real fight or even a competition fight, it'll be useless, & you shouldn't block it like that, by stooping down low with your hands down, you're leaving yourself wide open for a strike, any strike. That's just common sense. Watch a KungFu demo here, you'll see the huge difference in execution, form, & style. Proof that they're not related.

  • @gbb357 thats just a demo ..n again its martial arts ..fighting n martial arts are two different things .the kick u described as apathetic kick is actually a beautiful kick..n they r doin it with less power and accuracy cos the aim is not to hurt the other person in a demo and yes that kick will be delivered the way its supposed to be in a real fight and trust me every one who s good at kalari will know how to..

  • @shadowlago95 ...Kalaripayattu is stealing from KungFu because they're using KungFu's reputation & credibility to promote & get recognition for kalaripayattu. Why didn't they simply say that it's an original Indian martial arts that is very unique & different from any other martial arts, because it is. It has no similarities with any other martial arts. It'll be more honorable & respectful to do that & they'll get the recognition & credibility with merit. Creating this LIE hurts it

    If it was not martial arts demonstration, this is Homoerotic.

    By the way, all kidding aside, this is all Choreographed.
