Looks like a touch variation of the no touch ko to me but I`d like your opinion. A friend asked me if this is "real".

The guy doing he demonstration is Soke Yamaue, 10th Dan Aiki Jutsu, he lives in Denmark. The video is from a visit in Kristiansand, Norway.

Really? You want an honest appraisal? Okay....

His bio is full of all the hallmarks of less-than-legitimate persons, there's mis-use of terminology (such as Soke, which he isn't), rather convoluted histories (including his official bio saying that :It is difficult to say when he started Aiki Jutsu, because he was born in Budo Family. His father taught him Judo and chiropractic techniques, one of his uncles taught him Go Ju Ryu Karate and an uncle to his father taught him Aiki Jutsu and Aiki Do.

As to what he does... er, yeah. Right. Hmm, how do we put this here? Ah, got it!

How wonderful, the power of suggestion truly is.

Reminds me of Kiai Master featured many times on MT!

I couldn't say it wasn't real without feeling it for myself but I'd reckon it would have to be odds of 10,000 to 1 for me to bet on its effectiveness against any MMA guy.

Mmmm!!
