Fuck, I better go sort my life out. I need therapy or somethin, and you dannym are the perfect person for suggestions
Learning how to fall is important and being able to fall is important in a real world situation, so that you can come up ready to attack.
In some cases a teacher or student my throw themselves out of respect, or Fear, I do this on occasion when the most senior teacher does a technique. Because it usually involves pain.
In practice students do not compete, they do a technique over and over and eventually they can begin to compete.
If you think that stuff is crazy... you should see Aiki Jitsu (or jutsu) as I told JAPR I got warned (and almost dismissed) for laughing out loud when the instructor did a no touch pin.

See that's the sort of think that makes me go "wow". I'm not looking for superman moves or anything, just something that works and isn't someone rolling over. This guy wouldn't be able to resist stuff like this because it's done with such force and speed that he hasn't time to, and if he did he'd have broken his own wrist.
Did you watch the video i posted? Because i insist that the 2-person take down shown first (i think, i only watched it once) was just a case of him moving his hands towards someone's face, and if you watch their feet, they literally throw themselves to the ground.
That's the stuff i think has no use. If there's a way to take down 2 people at once, then brilliant, i'm sure it takes a lot of skill and training and i'm sure it isn't pretty. But someone throwing themselves to the floor? That does the teacher no good and it does the pupil no good.

Cop using aikido the way it was meant to be used and ... kinda funny.
That's the problem with demonstrations... is they are pretty and they do not explain the nitty gritty, this is due to the lack of hardcore trainees.
People wanna see flashy super moves that will make them supermen, but this is not how the real world is, and in the Ideal world we would win every time. But in the real world we never ever know what will happen.
EDIT: You should always be skeptical, and remain so because it gives you an edge.

And by the way, my comment about time being relative was a joke, which the guy I said it to totally understood. And if you feel like I'm overreacting, you're probably right.

^ Time is a relative concept.
Assuming you're living as the rest of us on earth, not relative enough to make this video description anything other than misleading. Probably to get yourself more votes, i imagine. It's the videosift way! Sometimes the vote-fishing on this site reaches sensationalism only usually achieved by newspapers. Come on boys, we're better than those lot! We can do it!
Also, there are actors in there. The real life counter-parts are aided/chaperoned by the actors from the film.
Unless those children/young adults who you can see in the video have undergone the same relativistic effects as you, and 70 years has passed for them in a few days!
As for the final scene of Schindler's List. Great film, a moment that moved me most amid nothing BUT moving moments.
As it was performed it gives the impression that Death is just an average Joe, who happens to reap souls. Of course Death is such a great character in Discworld that no living person could leave everyone satisfied with their portrayal.
Seriously, it would be very neat if you really got gold with more star comments than videos, I don't think anyone's done it before. Your bronze may even be precedent. This just shows you're a great addition to the community. I'm just nagging on you about the number of videos posted because submitting them compels one to spend more time here. And I'd like if you did just that

ehhhh, the russians destroyed the nazis...japan only bombed a military-target in the u.s once, killed no american civilians,bombed no cities, they had no intentions to take ovr america. you guys stopped selling them oil, started to support their enymies finacially and moved all you fleet to hawaii. you would have done the same thing the did if it was the other way around, and hawaii belonged to them. " never go to war first, but always as last. so you can come back as first" the holy book of the jews.
The allies destroyed the nazis, do not devaluate the lives lost in that war by turning it into a "we came first we died the most" deal. I guarantee the people who fought that war wouldn't be saying stuff like that.
