    If he already had 3 in his mouth, then why did he have to load up another in order to draw?

    Why not just show one that was already there and draw?

The razors would be hidden in sandwiches, burgers...to avoid pre soccer match searches by police. UK is knife crazy..no guns. Hooligans will razor edge coins and use them like a razor, or like a shuriken, throw them at opposition fans/players.

    If you unscrew the handle off two machetes and put both blades in one handle you get a similar nastiness. very ugly damage.

    thats freaking crazy!!!!

    I for one never said I would use my VT against a razor wielding person. However knowing a little something something in addition to VT I would probably pull my blade and try and slash those hands flying around me. Of course that would be an extreme survival of last resort situation where it is impossible to run. Fortunately I live in a state that allows me to carry non switchblade knives.

    So are you saying that he didn't have 3 in his mouth? If you've lived in the "hood" and know people who were in Rikers Island or any other prison you wouldn't have to ask that question.
    But I'll answer. He did it to show that he could have multiple razors in his mouth. It's like a gun enthusiast showing off his weapons.

    The spikers ring is much better than the razor in the mouth. When you twist your spikers inside and hide in your palm. It will look just like a normal harmless ring. When you slide a 20 inch long cut along your opponent's body, the amount of blood will stop his aggressive attack.

    It's very prevalent in NY. I was just trying to give NY people a heads up that's all.
    I'm in South Bay California now and will probably never have to worry about it.
    I might get hit with a surfboard though.
    Wow, are you saying there are now gangs based on 52blocks, lol? That's wild! They seem to be having the same problem us TCMA people are having in that they all look like they're kickboxing when they fight (well actually we do the kickboxing, they just look like they're streetfighting, and you could never tell what style they trained from watching their fights - I wonder if it was like that in Canton back in the 1800s too?). Loved Mr 52's "dance of death" and how all those guys were running from him when he did it, lol. I didn't understand why or exactly what was going on, but it was entertaining.

    Sadly, they are having the same issues as TCMA and other TMA.

    No, that isn't what I said. READ THE WORDS and take them for what they are, nothing more. Don't add words, don't subtract words. I said what I meant and I meant what I said.

    That being said, I have no doubt about whether he can put three blades in his mouth. It's not new, people have been doing that for hundreds of years. Back in the 80's cats around my area would tape a blade to the underside of their lapels too. I'm sure that happened everywhere.


    I'm just sayin, if he already had multiple blades, why show another to prove he can run multiple blades? It wasn't a challenge, just a thought.

    I dunno bout Rikers, but I did 3 years in BC and blades were pretty common there too. I imagine most prisons are like that. I've seen people hold more than three. Not always from the mouth either. There are tons of great places for a small blade.


    Who has multiple guns on them and then pulls one off the table to show how fast they can draw? Unless the point is to draw off the table, that is. But that's something else. Competitive shooters sometimes draw off tables, especially when doing a circuit.

    It's not as crazy as it seems. Just holding while talking isn't that tough. Try it, you may get cut, but you'll learn fast Rolling it around your tongue is a lil more involved. I've seen people take shots to the mouth and still not get cut. Spitting it out is simple, catching it is what takes the practice. At least for me anyways. I don't keep razors in my mouth, I just tried it a few times. You do dumb sh1t to stay entertained when you're locked up. Mostly we just launched torpedos.

    Try it. It's just a razor. Practice with a dull one if you're scared of getting cut.

    Yeah, cuz what if you accidentally swallow it? You're in big trouble then. I saw a morbid documentary called "Oso Blanco" and they didn't even mention razor blades. But with all the dismemberment those guys were doing, little razor blades were probably the last thing on their minds, lol....

    This really shows the importance of the TCMA philosophy of never letting yourself get hit, even once, versus modern combat sports philosophy where trading blows is the norm.

    Phil, what exactly was he doing when they were flashing "dance of death" across the screen? It really didn't look any more dangerous than what they had already been doing. I mean why did everyone start running from Mr 52 at that point? I mean Mr 52 was doing pretty good against the big guy before that, but the big guy definitely seemed to be controlling the show. Why would he and like 5 other guys now all of a sudden start running? I don't get it...

    Update: A friend recently told me the 5 percenters are the gate keepers of the knowledge mostly there now. He directed me to these videos where some of the old timers discuss the old times in the art: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qTQbi...=results_video

    lol, it's convincing one idiot to attack another idiot for entertainment purposes. Some people really are that dumb and insecure.

    "Yo, come here. Yeah, you! You hear what that cat was saying about you....?"

    Then they roll around for a bit then head off to seg for a cooldown and formal beating from the lovely staff.
