Clear energy projection skills. After 70 years of practicing in an internal art you don't move externally anymore, unless you are a dummy, like the youngsters in this forum who comment so easily about fake. What are you saying? That the master should sweat, for you to be able to see the movement of energy from earth to his hands?

But tai chi is not an art everyone can understand. If so, the world would be a perfect place, full of balance, respect to nature and understanding of life's purpose

Anybody else FEELING the movements? It's like the old man is basically playing with the other guy's balance, "sending" him into specific patterns, making him go away... Most of the force is actual gravity i think.

Pushing hands is a taijiquan exercise, right? I'd like to do that :)

This is actually sooo good. I watched it a while back and thought the same. Now I understand more and I'm still thinking "Wow, so smooth."

@jmorrisette69 When you have a bunch of guys pushing, only the front guy exerts force. A common trick which we debunked in 4th grade. This shouldn't be construed as disrespect for your master, but if he is wise he will avoid such demonstrations, because while they are thrilling to the uninitiated, they show weakness if you know about transmission of force.

I trained with Ma Yueh Liang's last disciple Grandmaster Johnny Lee and I can say being an ignorant American there is a lot out there that western science has yet to discover in terms of what the human body is capable of. Oh btw the comment someone made about silk reeling is 100% correct. Now Chen Fake there's someone like Master Ma we should all strive to emulate.

This is one of those things you have to see for your self, however My master can bend metal around his thumb standing on one leg so I can see how the master can hold of a guys push. My grand master was pushed by 13 guys in a line one behind the other and they could not push him. so I believe that there is such a thing as this. I have also seen videos like this that are not real so I understand the lack of trust.
