Nah, that "kid" at the time was a grown man, a veteran RBWI Instructor, and a talented martial artists in his own right. RBWI was rough and no pads or gear was worn so he was used to contact. We all were, that was just the way it was back then. Mr. Bussey pulled the kick and as you can see Mr. Jaksha was just fine standing up right after the demo was over. It looks good for the show. We used to sign up lots of people after demos like this.

WTF, did he really just kick that kid in the face at the end? i wonder how many potential clients he lost on that move.

@surobakianinpo LOL you are right, everyone that learns a combat sport forgets how to fight on the street completely.

[surobakianinpo]

@ZachMac209 well if you consider things like fighting without gloves, groin kicks, throat punches and eye pinching magic, than yes, i'm well within my little fantasy world. so go on living in your little ring. but remember - there's no referee to save you out here...

[ZachMac209]

@surobakianinpo Your little "ninja" magic won't work against anyone that has wrestled or studied an actual combat sport like Muay Thai, so why try and make it seem like you are the exception to the rule.  Have fun living in your fantasy world of Ninjas and SAFTA.

Didn't work out so well for ol' Scott Morris

@primate4 from the beginning of your comment i knew that there will be three terms used. boxing, muay thai, brazilian jj. holy grail!

u guys are so easy to identify and read :D :D :D

It still blows me away how many people still think this kind of stuff will work in a real street fight. It looks pretty and cool. I give props to martial arts experts who put in the hard work and time to do the demos.  They look impressive. If you like to live with a false sense of security and think you can pull moves like this in a real fight, you will be let down when it doesn't work. Concentrate on boxing, muy thai and brazilian jj and you'll stand a much better chance.

@hosmanc Yes, I agree. Good thing it didn't work out for you. I remember that one day, I actually went to the mall interested in joining his school. His school was open but he wasn't there. He was a security officer at the mall and was busy handling a disturbance or something. A kid, who was in there eating a taco, told me that he would be right back. I waited there for about 30 minutes before I decided to leave. I left and never went back. Good thing because I didn't waste my time or $.
