Now that the disclaimer has been included, let's teach those cops how to defend against the samurai sword, and apply the deadly poison hand - Dragon Snatches the Pearl. Holy Shit.)

I'm not posting this to trash this guy, but speaking as a non-CMA martial artist, this is the kind of stuff that really makes CMA's look hokey.
I like watching stuff like this on youtube, provides some quick entertainment.
I think there is a market for this in the world for some reason. No doubt all the people that train in this really believe in it. Its funny but sad that so many people fall for it.
I expect its the same people that check their starsigns every day and dont step on the cracks in pavements and take halloween seriously.
