yeah, just nonchalantly walk behind your opponent while he stands still in oi-tsuki in the middle of the street or sidewalk or parking lot, alley-way... wherever... Real effective and realistic bunkai... Hahaha.

look at the jitti of alexander seghers

[ScrappyCD206]

I think it's the part just after that part that looks like a starting position from the Pinan Kata, where you would move back and use your right hand to block a face punch. Either that or it's the first move of Jitte, where you step back and again, use the right hand.

[Nosferatu303]

What part of Jitte is that!? That's some interpretation.Keep practicing!

Gotta check-out your fellow karatekas because your clip, like theirs, are on my favourites list.

The reason their techniques are week is because they are just going through the motions but not using any form or at least a low centre of gravity. Their techniques lack power because they have not done any MAKIWARA or punching bag training. Also the attacker should resist the attempt and the defender must resist the attack and counter-attack

haha, the downed guy hits your groin at the end.  I dont want to be too mean but none of that stuff would work anyways, in addition to the techniques themselves being really weak and sloppy.
