That's hilarious! ... and rather embarrasing. I gotta reiterate what Flying Crane said, why do people post videos like that? Although, the poor guy may not know whoever videotaped it put it on youtube. :shrug:

Good point. I'm just waiting for a video of me to show up from some tournament I was at. Then everyone gets to pick me apart...

Heh, yeah thats true. It looks like he just didn't really know what he was doing. Could have just been one of those days, but man that would be embarrasing. It looked like there wre alot of people at the demo too.

Inch punch it is called. He is pushed after the punch. How the hell he learned Wing Chun. You should not be repelled back if you perform the punch in a relaxed manner. Now that's wrong. I saw a vid where GM Leung Ting break the same wood using his finger thrust techniques. Amazing!.
