Haven't you ever seen somebody try to crush someone's hand with a handshake when trying to intimidate them? Or using a handshake as distraction before punching the other person in the face? That's why they are trained.

Done. "When did you start practicing the martial arts and why?" "How long have you been practicing?" These two questions may be a bit redundant.

But not in everything. World renowned experts can be wrong about things.

According to him.

If that's all they have, then you can.

What did I just watch part of?

If you use socks for impact absorption you can also use them to impress the ladies. :)
