ExcessiveForce,
Marc "Animal" MacYoung is, in my estimation and that of many others, nowhere near the league of Dimitri, Franco, Thompson, et al. He writes good books, but those who have seen him in person after reading his books are almost always very disappointed in what they see--not any real skill to speak of, evidently. I haven't met him, but I get my information from instructors that were at the first Combat Coalition (now basically defunct) seminar in New Jersey. If you want some info on him, let me know and I'll PM you.

I am very hard pressed to believe his claims in general, as well as this particular one.
