It looks like a local amatuer 'pro-wrestling' bout to me. Basically, a semi-impovised two-man set with goofy costumes.

I'm not seeing that at all. Look slike a good full contact match to me. Some clean throws, some nice shots, even some of the big ones. I know the guys reputation is screwy but it looks like a good fight.


the only thing I find a little odd is that he keeps doing the same sort of throw from the same corner.

Yep. That's what ninjitsu looks like in a match fight. That was an excelent match, IMHO. It illistrated the strengths of both styles well. It also made ninjitsu's weak blocking very obvious.

The shirtless guy would not have been thrown so much if he'd realized that "Kim" is typical of his style, and so has limited stand-up skills but can have lots of fun with any appendage that is left hanging out there. Shirtless kept getting killed with all those high side and front kicks. Very nice creasant to the back of Kim's neck, though.

Ok, that was choreographed.

1. Spaceman ref.

2. The flying drop kick

3. The Ken and Ryu from Street Fighter II type rolling throws that happened twice when AK was in the lower right corner (I'm assuming AK was the guy in the ninja suit).

If it were real, however, I would give AK props for wearing a ninja outfit to a tournament.

This post on AK's new forum kind of talks about that video:

But he doesn't say anything about it really.

I see AK is still up to his old name calling and insulting posts.

God I hope nobody actually thought that was real ninjutsu! No, that is not what ninjutsu looks like in a fight! There is not even a hint of taijutsu in the movements of the "ninja" in that clip.

I am sure that most people know that Ashida Kim is a joke....but, for those who have not been to a real ninpo class, please do not assume that was ninjutsu.

I was waiting for the referee to fly away on his jetpack:)

When John Keehan (aka Count Dante) died in 1975, he left the Black Dragon Fighting Society to his top student William Aguiar of Fall River Massachusetts.

His previous "top student" who WOULD have inherited it was Jim Koncevic. Koncevic was stabbed to death in '69 or '70 during the so-called "Dojo Wars" in Chicago when Dante's Black Dragons raided the Green Dragon Society's Black Cobra Training Hall.

Currently, Aguiar's son Bill Aguiar the 3rd is running the BDFS.

PS: If that "Ashida Kim" fight vid is recent, it's NOT "Kim". Ashida Kim is a caucasian named Christopher Hunter who decided around 1980 to make some money off the Ninja mystique and the info contained in a copy of the book "World's Deadliest Fighting Secrets" by Count Dante.

His first book "Book of The Ninja" came out around 1980 or so and in the photo of him in the back he looks to be in his late 20s to early 30s. He's probably in his 50s by now (hence his boy wearing the mask during the fight).

What do you mean "why is it not possible that the guy in the clip is not Kim ???"

Not only IS it possible that it's not him, I'd say it's very LIKELY that it's not him. For one thing, he's a fairly old guy now. Not many 50 year olds doin' that stuff. For another, the guy in the clip looks pretty solid and filled out, Chris Hunter is rather small (I've seen many pics of him and even saw a pic of him among a group of his students, he's the smallest guy in the pic, kinda "petite").

Oh, and he's not a "Ninja". Never has been, never will be (not in any authentic ryuha at least).

LOL! I love some of the mindless posting. The fight itself didn't look that bad, period. There is no debate about it cause your watching it. It wasn't ultimate fighting, but there was a some solid and regular contact and the fighters looked to be under control most of the time. The fact that it might have been ashida kim (by the wat I don't see a date on the film so assuming its recent might be wrong) doesn't change the fact that the fight was a pretty good fight for a sport type venue. hell even if it was choreographed it still wasn't too bad.

It did look like there were some solid hits landing. I doubt any of the KF people here would do much better in the ring.

What's the problem with the ref? He's wearing a camcorder helmet and a VCR pack to tape the fight. It looks like standard skydiving gear.

IronFist
05-18-2004, 08:37 AM
The fact that the ref is wearing a vcr might mean the fight is old, back when Ashida Kim was younger.

Oh, btw, to anyone who doesn't know, Ashida Kim = Christopher Hunter = White guy using asian name to sell ninja books. Except he messed up and used a Japanese first name and a Korean last name. Oops.

Other fun facts:

1. "Ashida Kim's" first book was published under the name Christopher Hunter. It has pics of him in it.

2. Other AK books have pics of AK in them, and he looks just like CH.

3. I don't know if it still is, but www.ashidakim.com used to be registered to Christopher Hunter

ST00 has viciously tomoe-nage'd the correct, then proceeded to shove it seven feet backwards into the rope and hit it with a flying dropkick.

This is obviously a choreographed match and anyone stating otherwise doesn't know what a non-choreographed match looks like.

TWS and Fatherdog - I didn't say it wasn't choreographed, I even said I thought it was odd the same throw was being done in the same corner, a sure sign it most likely was - however, any idiot stating emphatically that this fight is obviously choreographed is, well an idiot. I've seen plenty fo fights, not hard in this day and age with oh I don't know cable tv, the internet, you know all that crazy technology. I'm also not going to bow to peer pressure on this and assume the this fight just HAS to be fake so I can impress all my KFO freinds with my hatred in fellowship of Ashida Kim ;)
Ultimately, my bet is it is somewhere in between. Some of it looks choreographed, some of it does not.

AK works like this. If you tell him that video is choreographed, he will say something like "You idiots demand footage, I give it to you, and you say it's fake! I'm all done playing your games" or something like that.

The AK formula is this:

Person: (asks AK a question)

AK: (gives a stupid answer)

Person: (tells AK why his answer is false or why he is lying)

AK: (insults and accusations of disbelief and "you will try to discredit anything I say because you have a personal grudge against me")

Person: (points out the obvious flaws in what AK says)

AK: (bans the person from his board)

Where's IHAK?

Kim repeteing things is more a sign of a limited repetoire than coriography. Shirtless had a bit of a limited one, too. 75% of his moves were high kicks. This isn't fake; it's just not professional.

regardless of what else there is to say...I've read his manuals, done comparisons and tried techs his way vs whatever, and the guy is a good ninjitsu stylist.....can't open the clips , but it'll take a seriously tradgic piece of work to convince me otherwise

I Hate Ashida Kim
05-19-2004, 11:06 PM
BL, AK is NOT legit. He may be able to fight, and he may know good techniques, but what he does is NOT ninjitsu (or ninjutsu or however you want to spell it).

That being said, all his "techniques" come from like Army field manuals and stuff.

Not only does AK claim to be Koga ryu, but the Koga ryu doesn't exist any more. The last master and his top student died in a car crash in the 50's or something.

AK cannot prove ANY lineage whatsoever to Koga or any other ninjutsu ryu.

Whereas Japan recognizes Masaaki Hatsumi as the Grandmaster of Togakure-ryu ninjutsu, and Hatsumi has all the scrolls that have been passed to him, Japan does not recognize AK as the grandmaster of anything, NOR does AK have any scrolls from any ninjutsu ryu.

AK claims his teacher was "Shendai," but he won't say anything else. Claiming mystic people as your teacher who are "so secret you can't tell their real name" is a sure sign of BS.

Ashida Kim is really Chris Hunter.

He is caucasion.

Ashida is a Japanese name.

Kim is a Korean name.

A white guy with a Japanese first name and Korean last name? I don't think so. Can you say "marketing ploy to sell books?"

On his board in the past, he has claimed that "Chris Hunter is his friend." The site used to be registered to Christopher Hunter, but I don't know if it still is. His pic has appeared in his books, and Christopher Hunter's pics have appeared in his book, and guess what, they're the same person.

AK also has a "$10,000 challenge" where you have to pay $10,000 to fight him, but with all his rules and conditions it ends up being more like $50,000. Of course, people have made challenges before, but he always comes up with excuses.

You say you've read his material. That alone should be enough to convince you that it's crap if you're even decently familiar with the martial arts in general. If you're familiar with ninjutsu then you should KNOW that it's crap.

He uses Chinese terms in his books for crying out loud. Ninjutsu is not now, nor was it ever, a Chinese art. There would never be Chinese terms in Ninjutsu.

More crap from AK's books:

In one book (Iron Body Ninja, perhaps?) he claims that "Thai boxers cut nerve endings in their shins so they can kick without pain." That's such a load of crap. Thai boxers don't cut nerve endings. What a *******.

In another book (or maybe it's the same one, I forget) he puts the Highlander (tv show) theme song at the end like it's some poem that he wrote. What a *******. I hope they sue him for copyright violation.

Do you need more proof that he's full of crap? Please let's keep this discussion going.

YinYangDagger
05-19-2004, 11:14 PM
Ok, ok I admit it. I've been reading this thread for a couple of days now and have to throw my 2 cents in...

I trained with the guy personally back in 1998. I was actually a guest at his house for like 5 days. The dude is a really good martial artist. Now don't get me wrong, he is kinda weird, but he can fight pretty darn well. On his wall, there is something written in Japanese (or Chinese - can't read either one) and several pictures of him with some Japanese guy. In one particular photo is AK (promised I wouldn't ever say his real name - and it's NOT what everyone thinks it is) with the Japanese guy and they are up on a hill with Tokyo in the background. He said it was his sensei. In another photo he is being thrown by the same Japanese guy and both of them have those strange "ninja tabi" like shoes on. I asked him why he never published his sensei's pictures or put them on the website and he said that he had nothing to prove to anyone and his sensei never wanted him to let people know that he taught anyone martial arts, and he doesn't exploit his sensei out of respect. Now I think this was BEFORE all the AK bashing began, I only started reading his message board like 3 years ago. I asked about the photos because I never remembered seeing his sensei in any books, etc.

He's really good at jujutsu-type locks and very strong for his size. For instance when he would grab me for some lock or something sometimes he left like bruise marks, and I don't easily bruise. I'm not saying what he did was magical or chi or whatever, but just stating he's very strong, at least his grip is.

One weird story is there was this woman that was living with him. She NEVER came out of her room except to get something out of the fridge. We would talk for HOURS and then he would go into the room, have some type of conversation with her, then come back out. This woman was HOT. I mean really HOT. But for days I would not see her, and I was there the entire five days. We never went anywhere. It was a spooky situation. I mean she never came out to even eat! I would get up around 7 a.m., and we would BS a while at night and go to bed around midnight, but she NEVER came out.

OK, I'm not a member of his organization, I haven't even spoken to him in like 4 years, so don't start bashing me (I might bash back :D ), but I just wanted to share this with everyone. Ninja or not? Who knows? He's really a down-to-earth type of guy when you're just sitting around talking sh!t with him. But he does train hard, has several students in his area, yet they don't pay him a dime and they train 7 days a week. His entire house is devoted to martial arts. Weapons EVERYWHERE LOL.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents. I've got that video shown and some of his training doing other things he gave me before I left.

Alright. You must suck as a martial artist if you think AK's stuff is decent. I've already pointed out lies and bulls.hit in his books. Are you going to ignore that?


Originally posted by YinYangDagger

Unbelievable. Well probably Christopher Hunter is a pen name as well. Is it at least the guy in the books that everyone thinks it is?

So you know his name but you won't say it. What, did he tell you? How'd you find out? I'm just curious why someone would go to so much secrecy to hide their real name. Unless they were afraid of spam because they're full of crap. Notice Hatsumi doesn't hide his name. Nor does Stephen Hayes. They're legit. No one gives them s.hit for anything.

btw, on his board before, AK has claimed that that IS his real, birth given name. More lies.


I asked him why he never published his sensei's pictures or put them on the website and he said that he had nothing to prove to anyone and his sensei never wanted him to let people know that he taught anyone martial arts,

Bulls.hit. He has nothing to prove to anyone? I've never seen anyone with a bigger grudge against EVERYONE on the internet than this guy. He even talks s.hit to the people on his board who kiss his ass.


One weird story is there was this woman that was living with him. She NEVER came out of her room except to get something out of the fridge.

He's probably a control freak nut case or something. He probably keeps her locked up. Is it the same girl from "Dragon Lady" or whatever the hell AK's X rated book is?


It was a spooky situation. I mean she never came out to even eat! I would get up around 7 a.m., and we would BS a while at night and go to bed around midnight, but she NEVER came out.

I'm telling you, he probably keeps her locked up. Like literally locked up. People are f.ucked up in the world enough to do that.


OK, I'm not a member of his organization, I haven't even spoken to him in like 4 years, so don't start bashing me (I might bash back ),

How'd you come into contract with him in the first place? Through another fraudulent organization? Please feel free to bash back.

I wouldn't have half as much of a problem with this guy if he didn't claim to be ninjutsu. It's funny how his "ninjutsu" techniques look just like American Army field manual techniques.

For example, if I'm an awesome boxer, and I can kick anyone's ass, and I go around teaching people what I know and call it "TaeKwonDo," that's BS. Even if I'm an awesome fighter, it's still not TKD.

Whereas Japan recognizes Masaaki Hatsumi as the Grandmaster of Togakure-ryu ninjutsu, and Hatsumi has all the scrolls that have been passed to him, Japan does not recognize AK as the grandmaster of anything, NOR does AK have any scrolls from any ninjutsu ryu.

Wrong, Hatsumi is a joke to the Japanese martial artists in Japan, but I guess you know it all :o

If you said the fight was fake/choreographed........YOU'RE RIGHT!!!

If you thought other wise got to a Judo school or watch a couple of matches and count how many clean throws you see in a competition. Yet here you see several of them. And the Pro wrestling style rolling kick up/rolling flap jack was a dead give away. And I haven't come across a ninjutsu densho yet that taught a missle drop kick.:D Now he is supposed to be fighting a CHAMPION KICKBOXER. Anyone get his name to verify this fight? No. Why? BECAUSE ASHIDA WON'T GIVE IT OUT!!! Things that make you go hmmmmmmm.

What started this was when Bullshido members (Anthony and Osiris) took up Ashida's challenge. He whined and cried and BSed his way all around the issue. He did the same thing when the REAL BDFS challenged him for using their material.

YinYangDagger,

You know why I don't by that Kim studied in Japan under a Japanese teacher? BECAUSE HE DOESN'T KNOW JAPANESE! CAN'T EVEN TELL YOU HOW TO MAKE A DECENT SENTENCE STRUCTRE AND FOR SOMEONE WHO TRAINED BY TOKYO CAN'T ANSWER BASIC THINGS ABOUT THE AREA!!!

Sorry man but if you believed even a fraction of his story all I can say you were suckered.

FYI Hastumi isn't the joke of the Japanese MA community the main center of questioning is the actual lineage of the Togakure Ryu school. The other 8 have been stated as valid.

I think the best way to solve this, is that someone from this forum go to AK's school and find out more about him. I would love to go find out myself, but I live on the other side of the planet in South East Asia.

I have seen some of his books, does seem pretty authentic traditional martial art stuff, but alot of his techniques seem more CMA than ninjitsu. The only thing that seem ninja like, was the origin of ninjas and the result of their techniques. He does show he has MA knowledge, but I cannot take him seriously after going to his website.

With a name like AK, his books on his amorous love affairs just seem to far fetch for a martial artist web site. Its like asking Frank Shamrock to write an erotic love novel with him as the main character and selling it on his own website. No one will take him seriously as a mixed martial artist.

You see the probelm with that is ITS ALREADY BEEN TRIED!!!:eek:

AK admitted he doesn't run a school and many pple in FL went looking for him. His outrageous $10,000 challenge was answerd and HE backed out. He claims to fought champion fighters but doesn't give any names and his 'proof' of this is a obviously cheorographed fight. He knows very little about the culture and language of the countries he supposedly trained in. He refers to his ninjitsu techniques by non ninjitsu terms. Since when did ninjtisu use the term kiba dachi?

Bottomline Ashida Kim is a fraud. The only ones that don't want to see that is the on kids with fantasies.

Asia, maybe you should try to infiltrate his school ninja style. Get someone to pretend they seriously want to learn ninjitsu from him. And being the money scammer he is, he'd accept them into his 'ninja circle'. And once accepted in he should be able to find out AK's school location. Beat them at their own game.

Man you are hopless. You mean to tell me if you lived somewhere for months to years you wouldn't know local landmarks of the area?

And I want to see you quotes of Kim using Japanese because he doesn't know the language an ONLY copies what he seen somewhere else. Try speaking to him in Japanese (or posting on his site) and he will be at a total lose. I know because I seen it serveral times. HE DOESN'T KNOW IT!

Dude you're just gullible no two ways about it. If you actually believe the rantings of this obvious Bipolar individual then there is no help for you. Just hope reality doesn't bite you in the ass. I feel bad because its pple like you who worry me. You want to believe so strongly that you push away everything else.

His old message board used to have the BDFS logo at the top.

But the REAL BDFS people got p.issed at him and threatened legal action or something.

So he removed it. He changed it now to BDNS (Black Dragon Ninja Society).

If he was actually BDFS, why would a) they get p.issed at him for using it and b) he change it?

Exactly.

Just for the benefit of Asia and the other folks on this thread that don't read the training forum -

blooming lotus has so far claimed that she knows ninjitsu, wrestling, boxing, aikido, and various chinese styles. She's claimed that she knows dim mak, which she also claims is the same thing as chin na. She claims that she's been offered thousands of dollars to work as a professional model, and that she could easily qualify for the Olympics, but won't because "competition ain't my thing". She claims that she's been tested and certified as a genius, as well - I'll let her spelling and grammar abilities speak for themselves on that score.

So, really, arguing with her over the legitimacy of Ashida Kim is going to lead nowhere but frustration.

This has been an entertaining thread, especially the last page or so.

As for the vid, nobody consistanly pulls off throws that easily. There was no resistance by either party. It was obvious that they were cooperating.

AK's face was consistently unguarded...you mean to tell me that a CHAMPION kickboxer couldn't capitalize on that? was he a kickboxer or thai boxer? If he was a thai boxer, why didn't he knee him once they clinched?

Actually, I don’t know much about Ashida Kim, and really don’t care, but some things in the video, made me look at his site ...

According to Kim, the fight tool place in SA. That could be true, as I can hear from the referee’s accent, that he could be from South Africa. Also, if my ears are not failing me, I did hear snippets of one of our local languages from the people in the crowd. If I look at the judges at the table, the haircuts tells me this video was made around the late 80’s maybe even early 90’s (but I doubt early 90’s). I have a friend who knows someone, who knows someone in the BDFS, and he said he did not even know Ashida Kim came to SA.

He says the other fighter is Phil Tempel who is apparently the World Middle weight champion. Did a quick search on the name, and some sources quote him to be the SA Middleweight champion. I could not find any info on him. The martial arts community in SA is not that big, and someone should know someone.

If indeed the other fighter is South African, I could believe that the fight was choreographed or fixed. Especially during the 80’s and 90’s, people here would do allot for money. I mean, if anyone offers me to fall for a few thousand $, I would do it. Money talks in this 3rd world country.

The fight was decent, entertaining at best, but as 7star pointed out, they pulled off to many throws, way to quick. That flying kick thingy he did (the one with the slow motion reply) was pretty cool although I am not sold yet.

Over all, Im with GDA and CSN on this one. It most probably was fixed, but it was one of the better fixed fights I have seen.

Ashida, if you ever need a fighting partner, for anything over $20 000 I will make you look better than HHH. My wife has been nagging about moving to a better neighborhood for some time now, and $20 000 is about R160 000 (not enough for a house, but will defiantly be a good deposit).

Im waiting for a friend to confirm some fact for me. When I get a reply, Ill post it here.

05-24-2004, 06:58 AM
I just watched the video clip.

I will say there are a few valid things about the fight. A few of the kicks, especially the one ashida kim took to his kidneys (the axe kick that is) definately does not feel good.

There are lots of suspicious or janky looking things in the fight. For one, the rolling back leg toss from the corner of the ropes was funny. I mean how would you really get that off in a fight? A lot of the throws looked like parlor tricks to me as well. I have some limited experience in akido and I know that when you flip like that you are going with the throw. Not to say thats a bad thing. Going with the throw is better than getting a broken arm or dislocated shoulder, but at the same time in a real fight type situation there would be counters and resistance. Unless you actually felt like tumbling a lot and wearing yourself out.

A few months ago I watched this documentary on TV about martial arts. A lot of it was crap. They had the combat ki guys on there (which always cracks me up) but when they got to the japanese martial arts I was really impressed. The okinawan systems on their looked real good, and their techniques were pretty lagit looking. Then they showed one of the last ninjitsu schools in japan. It was a private school that you had to be chosed to attend. The current top student there was a guy from the UK. I do not remember names at all (I'm bad w/ names sometimes) sorry. It looked cool and the teacher there definately had lots of energy behind his techniques.

I would say this fight was probably scripted or at the very least watered down.

I did go to AK's website and read some things. I found this to be very funny.

05-24-2004, 07:05 AM
..oh and this was great too, and interview with AK:


Will you prescribe a workout for me?

Ashida Kim replies: "People who ask this question are generally looking for some 'standard exercise program', but I don't do that. Any exercise is good and one must tailor the workout to the mission. If I were in the Ring, for instance, I'd have to regulate my diet and do a lot of running for stamina. When I'm a bouncer, I practice drinking and smoking. The trick with such things is not to get 'locked in' and think you 'must' do thus and so all the time. Workouts grow, evolve, change with time. That is also a reflection of how you are growing, learning, etc. I am often asked 'where to begin.' I always answer the same way, 'with a single step.' Choose that which interests you, start with that. It will lead to all the rest. Eventually, you will be where you started and you can make that take as long as you want. Unlike other teachers, I will not require that you conform to some imaginary pattern that is subject to change at any moment. Do what you are doing, do what you think is right, that is the Path. As for advice on how to proceed, it is simple, Be Kind. Live in harmony with nature. As for training, practice what interests you, don't get locked into a specific workout, let yourself grow and change and become the best person you can be."

Drinking and smoking as part of the work out huh? Being a ninja does rule!

Ask if there was ever a Chris Hunter.

not officially. that fight seemed pretty official (meaning it didnt happen in one of the back street fight clubs). But I have just been told by another friend, that during a certain time in our history, there were some 'unofficial' fights that happened in a neighbouring indy state (which is part of SA right now, but wasnt then). Still no one knows that asihda kim came here.

on a good note tho, billy blanks made it to sa. apparently he got his a$$ kicked by some local SA karate ka.

can anyone say for certain that the black ninja in the video could not even be billy blanks undercover?

kim could be blanks? in africa all is posible. just think, a black man with a japanese name and a korean last name...

reminds me of the movie I saw this weekend called shoot fighter (bolo yeung). the guy wears a karate suit, does some karate katas and calls his teacher sifu (even did a darn dao routine in his whites)

I mean shaolin do has wolf man! I thought of that line from that old 80s movie, The Monster Squad, where those two boys are fighting the wolf man. One of them turns and says the other one, dude kick him in the nards. The other boy replies, wolf man doesn't have nards! Then he swiftly kicks wolf man in the groin and wolf man falls down in pain. The boy turns to his friend and says, woah, wolf man does have nards.

Of course they don't NEED resistance... What I'm saying is when you throw someone, they fight it. These guys were not resisting the throw at all - they just sat there and let themselves be thrown. it was fake.

Its like I said earlier. Those throws were parlor tricks. I know from watching demos of akido and other grappling arts, that when you get flipped or tossed you go with it. In reality when someone cranks your arm the way it doesn't go you will drop right to the ground and something will probably dislocate. That is because there would be resistance and they would be fighting back

when you see like an akido master doing a demo people "go" with the toss. Its good tumbling practice and they do not get hurt that way. I have almost had my wrist broken doing chin na before and it hurt so bad I just fell to the ground. If I had flipped with the wrist lock I would not have been hurt, but I would be on the ground.

Also, just using akido as an example its a good system not dissing it

Looked like pro wrestling level choreography to me. OK, We'll throw some combos at each other, then if and when we get to the ropes, we'll clinch, I'll toss you, etc. Some of those shots landed, granted, but it didn't look like they were fighting for some reason.


On Ashida Kim:

OK, he may be a great martial artist, but he annoys the hell out of me with some of these absolutely rediculous stories. I just wonder what he believes about himself... some people are like that. They think they can do something, so they tell people they have.

Okay Blooming Lotus-

I will give Ashida Kim (or chris hunter or whatever or whoever this person is) the benefit of the doubt. I have never once touched hands, worked out, or trained with him. I guess there is a possibility he could be really skilled.

OTOH, I have browsed through a few of his books and read a few interviews with him in it. His exploits are somewhat far fetched sounding. He has also never revealed where he has trained. He just claims to have had many teachers. This makes me even more skeptical.

To me he sounds like a lot of lineages in certain martial arts sound. He sounds like he wants to make a buck off of dumb people.

I'ved studied ninjutsu for over 15yrs, starting in Japan, and I say Ashida Kim is FULL OF ****. He claims to teach a KOGA school which all BS ninja teachers try to claim but make three BIG mistakes. 1) Koga and Iga are just regions the actual ninjutsu school would have its own name. Exp Kumogakure Ryu is from the Iga reigion. Kim's KOGA Hai Lung Ryu doesn't make any sense. 2) Ninjutsu from Koga is DEAD! 3) Ninjutsu from Koga is DEAD! Now I know that it technically only 2 mistakes but the second one is SOOOO big that it had to be mentioned twice.

Bottomline anyway you slice it if you believe Ashida Kim is a Ninja master you need your head checked.

It's not an issue of force with force. IF YOU ARE ALREADY OFF BALANCE, then you go with the throw. they weren't about to be thrown in this vid. they just walk up to each other and throw. If resisting a throw is force with force, then you have no clue about stand up grappling.

Also, read GF's post again -

"Its like I said earlier. Those throws were parlor tricks. I know from watching demos of akido and other grappling arts, that when you get flipped or tossed you go with it."

use your genius IQ level comprehension on it. He's saying that the throws were fake. they were going with the throws, just like and aikidoka would go with one in a demo.

Is it because you come off like a loon?

As far as I can tell, you come on here posting stuff (mainly on the health and fitness forum) which runs contrary to commonly held beliefs of lots of posters on the board. When they disagree using clear logical arguments and citing studies and stuff you pull your alleged IQ out rather than offering a reasoned response back, which makes you out to be really arrogant.

Plus your other claims, which just seem pretty outlandish.

Maybe they are true, stranger things have happened, but instead of shoving your IQ down people's throats as the reason why you
are right about everything - how about doing what everyone else does and just argue about the facts? Keep your supposed personal brilliance out of it, believe me, no matter what you say, if you continue to write what you do, how you do, and keep claiming that you're some sort of mega-brain people are going to continue to take the p!ss, and deservedly so.

D. the amount of international travel I've done and country - entryty requirements..........

In the proccess they found that by some freak of nature I had higher intellect than 95% of the international community...I'm attributing most of that to my hardships and diligence of recovery.......I don't think you understand how smart I really am...when I'm in secular society I meditate on world problems...and it's not often I don't solve them...at a governmental, scientific, economic, environmental, medical or whatever...but It's not my trip at the moment so they''re just thoughts .....you can say what you like....but if you don't unestand me and would prefer to criticise or argue and gather support for why I should live secularly or present as the average joe I'm not........I understand ....

Ok guys listen up........ Its pretty clear where Blooming lotus is coming from.

Lets say all her lifes experiences, from intellectual to model, hard upbringing and so on are in fact true (although it does sound and smell like BS)

If you notice she always steers any post back to duscuss her favourite topic:- HERSELF!

Now people who have a tendency to talk about themselves constantly are often self obsessed insecure people who are always looking for attention. Maybe this is due to the alleged hard upbringing she has suffered. Who knows?

My point is the best way to handle her is not to bother replying to her post or discuss any topics she raises because ultimately she LOVES the attention.

(the next tactic will be "I don't talk about myself its just others criticise me so I have to defend myself" or along the those lines. In other words putting the responsibility back on others)

I actually feel pretty sorry for the poor girl.

Yes go with it, if you can't get out of it. You gotta be quick and I was not quick enough and before I could apply any kind of micromovent, or elbow adjustment that pain was too much to handle. I was not resisting I was shocked by how fast it was. Chin na is hard to pull off, you must be quick and skilled with your technique.

The person who was applying it was my sifu at the time, so his skill was way better than mine. He did not mean to apply it that hard either, it just happened that way.

I healed okay. He massaged it with some Jow right after it happend and set my wrist back in place. Sometimes you get a little hurt when training kung fu. I didn't mind. I now know what it really feels like ha ha ha, and know what to expect when its applied to me. If he had fully applied it, my wrist would have definately been broken instead of just popped out of socket.

We were doing chin na practice one whole class and I was the test dummy for most of the applications. Either sifu liked tossing me around, or just liked the fact that I always volunteered to get hurt ha ha ha.

About I.Q., its meaningless to me. Not trying toot my own horn here but when I was younger I tested in the top 1% for math skills and they put me in this advanced class playing the stock market with fake money at the age of 9 or 10. I honestly wanted to play on the computers more than I wanted to participate in the class. When I hit highschool level I no longer cared for my studies. I would rather have a good time with my life than work hard my whole life, and since then I have done just that. Being successful has little to do with intellegence its more about how hard you work. I would rather practice kung fu, read, play video games, and go out for drinks than work at some mindless job for some corporation.

Everyones goals are different. Not to mention IQ testing is not standardized nor globaly recognized either. So, basically your IQ means two things, jack and crap, and crap just left town. Only if you can apply your intellegence to the real world is it then effective.

For someone who's using her IQ to look down on people, I'd think you'd have done a bit of research... at least a google search about what IQ means ;) 75 is borderline mentally handicaped, while Einsteins IQ was just above 160... sounds like you're making things up to make yourself seem more intellegent than you are(or making everything up, period). Aprox. 1 in 100 people have an IQ of 140+. Pretty high, but still I hardly think you're unique enough to qualify as a "phenom", lol.

Formally speaking, the IQ measurement is contrived to have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Less than 0.4% of the population has an IQ > 140.

There's alot of faux-IQ tests out there though.

As an aside, this is among the knowledge legally tested/required in order for someone to call themselves a counsellor, in states where the profession is regulated.

Funny thing about IQ numbers they don't measure HOW intelligent you are but your thinking patterns.

An Accountant needs a certain thinking pattern/IQ, a construction foremen needs another(which happen to be higher than the accountants).

A VERY high IQ is shared among geniuses and often "crazy"/autistic people.

In short IQ is NOT linked to how succesfull a person is going to be in life.

I tested high as a kid, and I'm stupid. 140 is not that notable, except to the parents of kids who get such scores. I strongly suspect a lot of it has to do with reading in the home, but that's me talking out of my arse.

Anyway, back to the vid(now that I'm finally done reading this thread). My observations:

I. As several members have said before, that vid was choreographed pro wrestling style, which is a loose style of choreography where the fighters work together toward the same general conclusion, a fix.

Examples that support this:

-The money shot- twice midway through the fight, The shirtless guy is between the camera and the ninja(snicker). The ninja moves and the shirtless guy reels back, onto the ropes WITH THE FULL OF HIS WEIGHT, his shoulders and head lolling back as if he's lost all structure, but his footing never seeming to show the same weakness. This happens again. Later, Ashida "sends" the guy against the ropes, the guy bounces off the ropes into a kick. Did they raise the tension on the ropes? No. Where is the only place you see that move used? Pro wrestling. Is pro wrestling real? No. Is this fight? No.

-The non-resisting uke. The shirtless guy and the ninja(snicker) both never resist the throw, even though one would assume the uke would not know if the thrower were going to try to land them on the top of their shoulder or even neck, etc. More importantly, they don't seem to try to escape the throw either. Escape can be non-resisting as wel, but they seem to always opt to go along for the throw.

-The shirtless man never uses the ninjas' mask against him by twisting it to blind him, even though there are more than likely no rules that require him to not mess with his opponent's ninja mask. And please, don't bring up honor- it's a ninja, whose whole life goal would ostensibly be to stab someone in the back and poison their shogun. Well, would be if he were a ninja.

-Again, why is the only format of fighting that professionally looks like this fight pro wrestling? Because this is pro wrestling. Again, is pro wrestling supposed to be real? No.

-Back to the two blows that sent the shirtless man reeling against the ropes when he was between the ninja and the camera. Why are those two blows so singular in their apparent effect, yet never does the ninja repeat them? Supposedly, one attack completely sends the shirtless man's upper body reeling backwards, AND sets him up for the second attack, but the ninja never repeats this. It is because the blows did not send the shirtless man reeling back, the shirtless man simply used the ropes to arch his back against, because that is what you do in pro wrestling, you sell the blow, instead of having the blow sell itself. The man's footing never falters when he reels because he is not reeling, he is acting as if he is reeling, like drunken boxing, arching back onto support as a way to appear offbalance when actually balanced.

I also agree that that guy is much stouter than any pic I've seen of AK.

For the record, one group of friends of mine are stunt men, some of whom used small wrestling federations to make a little extra cash. Ironically, one was Jabuda the ninja in a federation in Illinois, perhaps the funniest wrestling I've ever seen. His career ended when a billion pound wrestler said "go along with this" during a match and did the weirdest, most jacked up throw I've ever seen, right onto Jabuda's shoulder. I've sat through so many matches that look just like this one, it's not funny. The only difference is, no one believed those other ones were real.

Chang Style Novice
05-30-2004, 06:18 PM
Exactly! And yeah, I do want to be "technically correct" because technically correct is really the ONLY KIND of correct.

Specifically, IQ measures the expectations of logic and reasoning for a particular age and compares them to the testees (no jokes, please;) ) actual abilities at whatever age they are. Furthermore, the scale only goes up to a denominator of 20. In other words, IQ is basically for teens - people younger than 20.

Allow me to give an example.

If, at age 15, you score on the test the way a 16 year old is supposed to score, you'd have an IQ (intellegence quotient - ignore BL's blatherings about 'emotional IQ' and 'physical IQ' - the I in IQ stands for intellegence, nothing else)

where was I? Oh, yeah

16/15=1.067x100=106.

An IQ of 107, rounding up.

If at 15 you answered the way a 20 year old is expected to, you'd have an IQ of 133.

Of course, this is only the briefest precis on IQ. To really get a better understanding of why it is an imperfect, culturally biased measure of intellegence - a word that does, in fact, comprise many distinct traits some measurable, some not - I recommend Stephen Jay Gould's "The Mismeasure of Man."

BL,
I tested in the 130-140 range as a kid, it's not that notable. It's good, but it's also meaningless, like any test. It's meant to measure something, not be something, and what it measures is not all that important, as anyone whose met many mensa members can tell you. As for EQ, again, the tools for measurements and their results are waaaay less important than other details. These tests are some of the bluntest tools in the toolchest of the modern mental sciences, in my uneducated opinion. The vast majority of people with 140+ iq's will advance the knowledge of man not one iota, and since that's the point, the rest is just a needless ego boost, imo. The need for that number to be massive is, imo, a negative one. I've got a nephew with aspbergers, he's insanely smart in his own way, but dumb might be better.

And the problem with measuring Einstein's iq is that you're talking about measuring a mind that vastly changed the world by the thinking of a mind that didn't, imo.

There's a term for this, rarely if ever in human history has advancement been solely dependent on one individual, even when one got credit. I don't know that term, but I know that more than one other forum member could tell me it.

Einstein did not split the atom because of his iq. He did not even find how because of his iq. IQ cannot measure what no one before has known, because those writing the test cannot know it. As was said before, IQ is what some think people know at a certain time, should know at a later time, and what the difference is. What is unknown is unmeasurable. Unmeasurable doesn't mean above the thoughts of the measurers. It means what the measurers were ignorant of the existence of. Ignorance is not often the outer edge of our knowledge, it is the holes in it. I am completely ignorant of the purpose of the anode, but not completely ignorant of the purpose of a resistor. Is this because the resister is simpler that the anode? No. It's because I happen to know something about one and not the other.

In this case, I happen to know something about professional wrestling that apparently, some others do not. I can show you an example. It's the link in the first post. I am genius.

of course it was a culmination of past efforts and the trend of societal thinking at that stime, but I beg to differ his intellect wasn't a key factor to him reaching the post first

Ah, that's in the dictionary about as often as assementakl.

Please inform we of the non-Tickle-anal-eye-sed (wink wink) what this word actually means?
