    All it needs to be perfect is a bagpipe soundtrack and the dude in a kilt.

    You know it's authentic because he's wearing Feiyues.

    This one from Vietnam goes on for a while. I saw similar 'qigong' demos in Taiwan back in the '80s/early '90s, and have also seen early-'90s footage of a Bosten-based 'Taiji' master demoing nearly identical stuff in NYC. Reportedly, this guy has become a laughingstock in Vietnam.

    While I agree that what this guy is doing is complete and utter bullsh.it, I don't know about him being a laughing stock in Vietnam. In fact, as difficult as it is to believe, he has (or at least had) a good reputation in Vietnam from his success as a fighter in his younger years.

    Well then, his fighting success must have been a long time ago. I heard he lost face when he did a disappearing act when some MAist from Canada went to Vietnam to challenge him for being a fraud. Regardless if he was a fighter decades ago or not, it isn't difficult to destroy one's own reputation. Even if he had a good reputation at one time, it's clear he had become a cult leader/fraud. If he was legit, that makes it even worse.

    He's a cult leader for sure. Unfortunately being a cult leader, a fraud and running away are usually not enough to destroy one's reputation in the kung fu world. In fact being a cult leader generally enhances it...

    PS. if you're talking about the French Canadian Wing Chun guy that thinks he's a hero for manhandling tiny opponents in Vietnam, dude is almost as big of a clown in my opinion.

    True. The case of a bully targeting a charlatan. Going after what he perceived to be an easy target.

    I won't name any actual NAMES..cough..but what is the consensus on a "sifu" who has had students for 25 years and this student is STILL not a sifu?!?

    This instructor even claims to have had a student going back to 1981 who (allegedly) is STILL studying and is *also* not yet a sifu.

    Let's say for the sake of illustration that these are dedicated and hardworking students. This instructor teaches only one style of kung fu. Not many arts(at least chinese arts that is)

    He claimed on his FB page (before it was taken down) that "----- -------- is like family to us"(the one whose studied non stop since 1981). Gee..COUGH..I wonder why? Hmmmmm.

    It couldn't ..COUGH..have anything to do with the non stop steady income supply..now could it?

    This pollen season (wink) makes it hard not to cough!
