no you dont, but thats not what he is doing, he is putting a % on it, but not saying what that % is, other than its greater than, ,,,

that needs data

No 1% is a colloquialism. Generally either used for very rich people or bikies.

i. not weasling out im just to busy laughting at you asking which artic ?

id go to norway, thats a country not at all near Greenland
Cool. So did a quick search. Again, assuming you're in manchester at the moment. The first 3 sites I checked that's a 4 hour flight on its own. So when you include driving/bussing to the airport, boarding, departing, finding an ice cap to hike and getting there, it would take you a fair bit more than 4 hours.

so, in essance you have no idea what the participant number are

It only has to be one to apply in this case though. Because it is applied to a specific person.

The artic is that area. You were talking about hiking an ice cap. Since you said norway and not greenland (where the only northern ice sheet is) I assumed that you meant an ice cap rather than the ice sheet. In which case there are multiple. Here's a list of some of them in norway. And before you argue about whether those are ice caps or glaciers, read the first paragraph of this.

..now what does any of this have to do with jeet kune do? I think we got a bit sidetracked here, over something very unimportant.

The Earth has two polar ice caps. One on top in the ArCtic Ocean and the other in the south around the AntarCtic.

They are also referred to as ice sheets and there are also smaller spots can still be referred to as "ice caps".

ice cap

An ice cap is a glacier, a thick layer of ice and snow, that covers fewer than 50,000 square kilometers (19,000 square miles). Glacial ice covering more than 50,000 square kilometers (19,000 square miles) is called an ice sheet.

there both on top depending which way up you are when viewing them, the concept that the earth has the north at the top and soulth at the bottom is a total fabrication ( and what tends to confuse flat earther and you it seem)and just convention that has its roots in the first map makers comibg from the north

but i did specify the artic ice cap, that the one with the north pole,( currently) that sort of rules out the Antarctic from the discusion, but hell dont let that stop you

i kbow quite a bit about Antarctica , we can discuss that if you like

You're the one that said the "ice cap" is "on top" in reference to the Arctic polar ice cap and said there was only one. Thus my statement and calling it the "top" and referencing the other at the southern end (notice I never called it "the bottom"). There are also many "ice caps" according to National Geographic and not just one (the link).

So, once again be wrong and play semantic games to look smart.

PS: its the arCtic not the artic.

The Wong Jack Man fight in Oakland is shrouded in mystery, but clearly Bruce Lee was dissatisfied enough with the result that he started to move away from modified wing chun and more toward a converted southpaw
boxing style. Bruce watched films of Ali in a mirror to develop the right lead. Bruce also studied Robinson, Pep,
Louis, and Dempsey. Bruce studied books by Dempsey and others, including the United States Navy
boxing manual. What Bruce Lee did not do was swallow his pride and glove up in some Oakland boxing gym, putting his right lead boxing AGAINST BOXERS. I will grant that Lee could beat any of his own students and hold his own with the likes of Norris, Lewis, and stone. However, the fact remains that Bruce refused to put
headgear on and box boxers. Since JKD is right lead boxing with eye jabs, side kicks, and a few other techniques thrown in, it seems to me that it should be more reality based. MMA and the UFC are about as real
as one can get without athletes being killed or maimed. For decades I worshipped Bruce Lee, and Jeet Kune Do
was the martial arts. Now, I view wing chun as a mediocre Chinese style and JKD as part of a long chain of
developments leading to the first UFC in 1993
You do know that Bruce Lee did have a boxing match which he won...and he trained boxing right?

and that James DeMile who trained under Lee was a boxer...and Jesse Glover was a champion judoka ?

and Dan Inosanto was a champion martial artist too?

Lee sparred all his students...
