Hey, this is similar to a fake qigong trick. How is it done? (pics)

This chick who can't be picked up.

It's obvious that it's physics somehow, but how does she do it?

**PangQuan** · 03-11-2005, 06:54 PM

she either pays them, or tells them if they actually pick her up, that she will not sleep with them anymore. Did you notice she doesnt have any women trying to pick her up?

**phoenix-eye** · 03-11-2005, 06:54 PM

Hypnosis? Lead shoes? 9 inch Nails through her feet?

I dunno? But deffo not through qi gong practice.....

**Starchaser107** · 03-11-2005, 07:35 PM

might have something to do with her locking out the persons arms ina bent position either by cupping the elbow or lodging it beteen the forearm and bicep as shown in those pics. find a partner and try giving it a shot and see how it works, if it works at all..just a possibility...

**rogue** · 03-11-2005, 08:16 PM

I noticed the hands also and they're always at the same spot. I 'm tempted to say she's hitting one of the points around the bicep that make the arm not work 100%. I I know, I know if sounds like Dillman chi BS but it's not.

She must be like lifting up on their elbows or something which would make them lifting her weight + their weight, and you can't pick yourself off the ground. Or something. I dunno. I'm pretty sure it's physics tho.

Wait, in some cases she's above their elbows, sometimes she's to the side, and sometimes she's under. Maybe it's not exactly what I said.

Maybe it's similar to how you can put your two fingers together in front of you and no one can pull them apart unless the push them forward and backward.

Hey, I'd pick her up! Just lemme see her at a bar!

**IronFist** · 03-11-2005, 10:29 PM

You guys, she can't be picked up cuz she's doing something with her arms.

**Dao** · 03-11-2005, 10:48 PM

Could it possibly be Chin na related?

It's posture, mostly. She's probably above average at this skill, but it is a common skill. I have used it a few times. If the person picking you up is not using good posture and if you are "willing yourself" (actually using correct posture), they cannot pick you up. 2/3rds of this trick is not her arms but thiers. It is very dificult to pick someone up at the waise if they don't want you to.

It looks like crap to me. Iron, hypothesizing that it were true that she can't be picked up, it couldn't be that she's doing something to their arms because:

(a) Check out Gunter Schlierkamp's thick jacket - that would prevent any "pressure point" stuff by her.
(b) Check out the shot with the two Goodyear Blimp guys - she can only hold one of each of their arms at a time.

I want to see a vid of this, because I'd assume you're right if in the vids e.g. the guys are starting from a squat position and standing up and their arms are levering downwards i.e. their arms aren't strong enough to lift her. If OTOH their arms are strong enough and they can't stand e.g. similar to failing at a heavy deadlift, then I dunno how you'd explain it. But yeah, looks like crap to me.

This is a pretty common trick and there isn't really that much to it. Here's how it goes....first I say "ok, lift me up" and i stiffen up all of my muscles, making as easy for you as possible. Then I tell you to try again, but this time the more you lift, the loser I make my body...this way I am keeping you from being able to get a good "grip" on where my center of gravity is an all of my mass is disjointed. Wrestlers call this "dead weight", aikido folks call it "unliftable body".

It is a skill designed to illustrate how to carry yourself in a relaxed way. It can also be done with two people...one holding each forearm.

The thing that makes it work so well is when you stiffen up its really easy to lift you and the lifter can do it with little effort. When they try to apply the SAME effort to your "unliftable body" it's impossible. However, if they squat down and really dig in...up you'll go no matter what.

Dude, I didn't say it was chin na or qigong anything. I said it was physics. I ain't no hippie! You're the one with the juicing machine
