Taking ukemi from Tissier sensei is truly a frightening thought,
I know that it feels different than it looks (not from CT but from my club),
but still, this is sharp Aikido!

aikido is rooted deeply in history.I don't doubt that boxing is effective, the punch of a boxer or Muaythai is a hundred times faster than the tsuki strike of aikido,and yes,that bothers me.However,Aikido uses all elements of the attacker,including clothing,see 4:52,he's throwing by the collar)sheathed and unsheathed sword,and is a highly accurate study of anatomy and the resultant momentum of an attack.Aikido is beautiful,but practitioner,do not be lulled into a false sense of security!

To all: martial arts in all styles works. It depends on the person's skill to use it in a right ways. I trained Kenpo, Shotokan Karate, Mui Thai, and Aikido. I also join MGA tournaments here in Hawaii. All I can say is that the people who criticizes other form of martial arts are no martial artist at all but just a bully. Inn all dojos tht I joined, they told me not 2 speak bad of other styles coz that's just undisciplined manner. To all the people who does that, they r either child or immature.

I love the look of Aikido, I practise wado-ryu karate myself and it is amazing, I would like to learn Aikido too but there are no clubs near me. :(

@purplesaxark good catch – that was badly misspoken by me..
first of all, i meant 5:00-5:01, not 4:52, which shows nothing of what i'm speaking..
secondly, what i meant was, "if you freeze frame it at the moment uke is airborne, when it appears that tissier is throwing him by his head, you can see the potential lethality of aikido."
sorry for the garbled comment! for the record, i promise that i would NEVER describe iriminage in such terms :)

@sonsofdon I agree with everything you said except when you said he is throwing the uke by his head. That is not only not what he is doing that isn't even a viable description of iriminage.
look carefully at the iriminage that occurs at 4:52 - freeze frame it at the moment when uke is airborne and tissier is throwing him by his head. this and countless other moments in this video alone that show that aikido is lethal, but it is PRACTICED as a cooperative dance (so as to avoid the fatalities and broken wrists that would otherwise occur on a daily basis).

@kommisar so can we assume then you're a boxer who's always in scraps on "the street"? Post up a video of you doing well in the ring or anywhere for that matter. Turning up on YouTube swearing at everybody doesn't make your opinion valid.
