I understand, from a friend in Japan, that this was a set up on the old man. All of the students in gi's that you see falling around in theatrics are not the old man's students, they are students of the MMA gym. They are playing along with the old man to strengthen his resolve. Then when it came time to do the business.....well, you see what happened.
That could be right, it could be wrong - but whatever the exact series of events I do think the poor old guy walked into a set up. That said, you need to be careful what you claim.
