Give Yourself a Hand

sorry for the amount of delay and let me take off this hat cuz I am hot so welcome to give yourself a hand um give yourself a hand is a yes what is the sound of one hand clapping uh it's actually a friend of mine that can do that so this talk is actually about uh personal physical security uh in the guise of a compliance talk so bear with me it's going to it it may be a bit of a rant some of it may be a bit of a rant but uh I'm I'm basically going to talk about the the human body as a human machine and how some of the hacker elements parallel martial arts

elements you know that you may look at these guys and think they're big Meat Heads you know on the ground throwing each other around getting all sweaty and nasty and the like but I'm here to tell you that the human machine that we operate within uh has multiple vulnerabilities within it that you don't think of every day and yet we use this machine to create secure environments ignoring the inadequacies inadequacies with than ourself so with that in mind standard disclaimer uh actually not really everybody um if you've heard me talk before you know I have legal problems meaning lawyers and I don't really get along in my company they have a problem with me when I go

out to speak so this talk I have not vetted through them run through anybody uh because this is truly not about what I do what I actually do uh but secretly it it kind of is so who am I and where are my pants uh usually when I teach this seminar this seminar does not involve slides it is discussion of theory uh kinetic linkage body and then we get down to it and run through a bunch of different techniques uh you can go with the subliminal basically I'm a security dude uh pre-1986 child which someone else has said before that means you're old um I'm interested in hacking most things sorry about that dual core I know you say hack

all the things but you know I'm not really into hacking all the things but I I am into systems and I see the parallels between systems and the body so the security methodology you know what you love it you use it have you ever thought about using the security methodology on yourself anybody any practitioners out there anyone like you know the Marshal World seeing those individuals no no one's in MMA I was going to say this could be very boring but you'll you'll see that these guys are hackers they are hackers in in the sense of what they do for for human beings so the human machine you're quite familiar with it or as uh you know like

your two hands head legs all that or as some people may think you know you know the super siiz human machine you know that's that's probably more that's probably more me right there the funny part is they always refer to it as pear and apple shapes and those are the things that actually make you healthy I've never understood that so we're going to talk about some boring stuff human phys ology your brain your nervous system your limbs but think about them from the perspective of a system an actual system because you're talking about your body and your body is a system it's probably the most complex thing on earth simply because you know your brain is mysterious and complex uh

the functionality between its communication paths and the rest of your body you know is is very odd because even if you lose a limb you've heard of phantom limb syndrome you know people it's still there because you're still sending signals there the neurons are still going there the nerve the nerve endings that ended there are still trying to do reporting and you you have to kind of think it like think of it like that so as I said um there's your brain your brain is the center of your of your of the of your nervous system even though it's not actually located in the center it's located in your head um there are actually no nerves in the brain the

brain does not have that which makes it very easy when people are doing brain surgery because they're not actually damaging uh elements that would be nerve endings but they are damaging what to the nerve endings they in communication paths in some cases to nerve endings um it consumes a little more than a third of all the electricity generated by your body uh your body generates somewhere in the realm of 600 molts and your brain consumes a little over 200 of those so sorry all of those who may have thought the Matrix is real it's it's it's not because it would take an incredible amount of humans in order to you know actually generate enough electricity to power pretty much any

machine you couldn't get a bunch of people together and power a monitor that would be you know virtually impossible um it is also located next to your sensory input organs which is you know by Design very good and it contains approximately 15 to 33 billion neurons can you think of a network where you have that kind of level of traffic or information P passing back and forth and how that congestion and bad that would be yet your brain seems to handle that quite well I found these uh I found brain uh compact fluorescent lights online I'm like oh that's awesome I have to buy some of these by the way that would totally rock at like a Halloween or

something so you think of your brain as you know as as a microprocessor that that would be me you know I'm old school I have 46 dx2 1989 you know I'm very old school most of you that's probably you you know you're probably rocking a core i7 you know like quad core hexacore something you're you're good like that me not so much so with the thought that the brain is in fact the the CPU of your body well then your nervous system you know it is a entally your land that's the land of your body and it's and it's amazing land um there's approximately 45 miles of nerves in every person's body can you imagine a network that was 45 miles in

length and you had to troubleshoot it something goes wrong right you have to get in there and do stuff so neuroscientists they're pretty amazing folks because they're working with some of the smallest parts of the of the body and they are the communication path by which you know things go from the from the command and control to the the rest of your body if you take your hand and you lightly rub the hairs on your arm you know you will feel that but you feel it not only here but sometimes you'll feel it somewhere else because it's either over stimulation or under stimulation that causes the nervous system to react and tells the brain that

oh well I also made some hairs over here stand up or something on the neck stand up because once again it's a it's a very complex path ah now limbs if you're standard am human you have you know four limbs ahead you know you have these things these are the nodes of the body these are the actuators of the body they can be jointed or prehensile if you have a tail I don't need to know about it uh excuse me uh by comparison with other mammals though our limbs are weaker than most other mammals you know you see people they do improvements to themselves bodybuilders weightlifters powerlifters they do that kind of thing uh most other mammals don't have to do

that they're naturally strong you see a an ape or something hanging from a branch and he just dangles there all day because it's effortless to him to manage his body weight with the strength and capacity of his limbs versus ours of course your legs are used for Locomotion and despite what some men may think and you know some things that they tell women um they don't have a third leg only that guy does so yeah I know this is not exciting stuff it's boring I got it but but bear with me hang on now um in discussion of the things that keep your skeletal system in line that would be muscles and the like but the

thing that actually holds your bones and helps your articulation points those are your ligaments your ligaments and tendons are your connected tissue in looking at those connected tissues this could be very important because unlike other parts of the body such as your muscle structure which you can improve and strengthen uh your ligaments and tendons what happens when you tear a tendon done you're you're done right what do they have to do they can replace it with cadaver tendon you know what does that tell you about that item in your body regeneration Li regeneration is limited strength is limited and therefore no matter how big and strong you see a person to be they always have that

weakness in their body professional athletes are always popping a a tendon or something and it go down and you see it looks like a string shooting up their you know inside of them correct so if those limitations exist those weaknesses those inherent weaknesses and yet we still survive you know we're humans you know it's the same as having a system online that you know has certain vulnerabilities those vulnerabilities can potentially be compromised because there are methods to do it and we will go over two of them um and and yet we continue to have that system in our environment because well we have to live you know we use an inherent insecure person in order to cre create

secure networks we never look at ourselves from the same perspective using the security methodology against us so we have a couple of uh a couple of different identification of of ligaments in the body uh your owner collateral uh ligament which runs along your older bone uh and your rad and your radius these are very effective manipulation points and I say that because from the perspective of a person that hacks the human body when I talk about hacking the human body I'm not talking about putting something in it I'm talking about taking it apart because that's what the martial arts teaches you it teaches you it reprograms your head you know literally giving you the the identification of where these

vulnerabilities exist and then you get to exploit them if someone does something to you it is a ready response system not an attack system I know you you know you see in the movies where martial artists are like a there martial artists in the movies are like police officers in the movies they can't get their job done until what not shoot somebody no they can't get their job done until you're on suspension and now he goes out and resolves the issue right in the movies martial artists are crazy people that go around and just beat everything in sight don't know why but they do ah thank you sorry I have a I have a cold and I

am I'm on meds and that's always good thank you what I do so keeping in mind those weak points in the body uh there's uh and the fact that the human form itself is susceptible to ah my ukie has arrived oh no that's actually me oh okay uh I was I was going to use Josh as my demonstration point but uh so keeping in mind that there are weak points in the body uh and they are susceptible to and the human body itself is susceptible to infection just as your network is you have viruses you know that affect you um you have weather issues that can affect you uh physical and mental illness obviously birth limitations some people

are not born with all their limbs some people are not born with uh full vision and the like and they environmental factors because you know when you get too cold or you get too hot you know performance of yourself starts to fade correct just as with a machine if it gets too cold you know being cold is great for computers being too cold is bad for them being hot is obviously bad for them but in terms of physical and mental illness you know systems get infected uh or they are from the manufacturer you know OEM deficient that's a problem but the question is can that be overcome and and the answer to that is yes I actually have an example of a

person who's done that um that was from a purely Medical Science perspective from a holistic standpoint there are systems that tell you that there are points on the body and those points on the body are effective effective to shut the body down either by touch or by striking or by the uh application of pressure and and they are they're primarily nerve clusters uh they'll tell you there's 108 of them 36 of them are fatal where you can touch a person and olude blood from going to the brain reporting back to the agent or blood as the packets try to go back to the processor they're prohibited uh and it will it'll shut you down you

know I've seen people just squeeze the jugular with really strong grip and knock people out it didn't look like they did anything but grabbed the guy by the neck a little bit and the guy passed out but he didn't you know they they shut down the means by which the brain you know sends its communication signals by flooding it with nerve stimulus you know that's a sin flood for you so does anybody know what that is a it is a beer tap so because the body has vulnerabilities we have an attack Matrix or a defense Matrix for the body and that M that attack Matrix or defense Matrix is the tap naap or snap Matrix tap you want to do something in

order to cause that person that is attempting to you know assault you hurt you you want them to take you want to take the fight out of them you know wouldn't it be great if you had a system you know online where if I execute this script or take this defensive posture my villain's going to go that's an undesirable Target I've got to stop and they're going to walk away right and we do that don't we you know we execute defenses well I know I have exed defenses that have made made my customer Network an undesirable Target so therefore the bad guy does what he's gone he's going to move on to something else you know which is not

great but in this case for the body once you tap a person out usually they know you have the ability to do it uh and they will ually leave you alone if they persist then you escalate your Matrix you go to the Matrix the nap Matrix says what I'm going to do is through either force of over stimulation which would be making the nerves just all fire to the brain and the brain shuts down you've seen it done before if anybody's Ali fan you know see Muhammad Ali he's boxing he's boxing you don't think he's hitting so much but he's hitting more often than the brain has the ability to understand so he shuts the brain down through over

stimulation uh in this case I'm not Ali I just choke you out I choke you out or I strangle you there is a difference one is a blood occlusion which you will wake up with the worst headache you have ever had in your life you will feel as if someone momentarily stop blood from going to your head because someone momentarily stopped blood from going to your head uh the other means of rendering you unconscious with the nap Matrix is choking choking is not like you see it in the movies and we I've had people like well I'll just hold my breath well you know what I'm squeezing the cartilage in your neck so you will go

out what they don't tell you is you wake up feel like you want to throw up I haven't figured out why that is you know but you just air ACC clude no air shut it down it's a very painful arresting feeling in your chest because I've been there um I've been been doing this for a bit uh I didn't think I've been doing this for very long but it's been over 30 years it's the it's actually the first hacking that I ever you know really learned from some fine gentleman who you will see later in the presentation but it's uding the air from actually getting to the brain which is you know the means by what the brain

likes and the body and muscles all move because oxygenated blood flies through it well what if you cut the oxygen supply off and of course if you cut it off for too long problems going to have problems are going to arise that are going to eventually evolve lawyers but your brain will arrest it will not enjoy itself and it will shut your body down you know you get spotted Vision tunnel vision like who's had has anybody ever had spoted Vision or tunnel vision it's a Trippy feeling isn't it because it doesn't it's when it's over it's still going on like even though you don't have it your your body is still responding to the stress it's still responding to the

fact that you did something to prevent normal biological function from happening and what that is is within your within your nervous system there are two uh types of of nervous systems there is the well the one we want to concern ourselves with is the think of the autonomous nervous system which is the subset of the peripheral nervous nervous system think think of that as a Cron job that's always running you don't have to tell yourself to breathe right you don't have to tell yourself to Blink it just happens you know because your body says okay I need to have these things happen just to keep things going you know so this person lives he has to

breathe circulation has to happen warning signs if you ever touched anything hot and you jerked yourself back that is your autonomous nervous system it's going hey hey hey this gets priority in the que tell this guy to take that node out of the fire and he will pull it back so think of think of that that is that is what you're attempting to disrupt in your attack Matrix you know some part of the of the nervous system or obviously with ligaments there's damage and that brings us to the the snap Matrix snap Matrix is I'm attempting to destroy something something is no longer going to be attached to whatever it was attached to and you know provided the

the guaranteed articulation of that point you're looking to either take the take the limb take that node and torque that node to a point where pain ensues and then take yourself 2 to 3 millim beyond that point you know in the same way as you know like if you if I were able to I'm trying to think of a a computer method that would probably but uh that would relate to it but I really can't think of anything right now because there's nothing that we have currently that would damage the hardware to a point where the hardware is useless you say again 308 I was going to say Charlie Miller Charlie Miller blow your battery

up he snapped that battery you know but um yeah that's that's essentially what it is it is uding the person you know by utilizing a method to unfortunately cause damage that will require some type of medical attention and that's bad we don't want to get to that but that's why it's an escalation so excuse me going with the subliminals so we now know that the body has these things that are wrong with it and yet we all still exist right we're here you're here hearing me rant uh listening to what essentially boils down to be a compliance talk about the body but it's not it's it's it's going to be a little more active than that uh

so we know that has inherent vulnerabilities uh selfir affections obviously OEM configurations may you know may vary change and the like uh physical mental issues and environmental factors well now what if the body is so weak how is it possible to do something like this it's not say again it's not the think that's right I photosho myself in there cuz that's how I roll someone actually said they're like janitor why'd you put yourself in there it's like dude I was at my instructor school he sprung the you're going to break four of these 2in bricks on me I went and then he asked me afterwards it's like what was the last time you broke it's been 12 years he goes oh you

still remember it's like I could have broken my hand but what comes into play is muscle memory kinetic linkage the things that we take for granted because we have programmed ourselves to sit down and use our heads on a system in a certain way right just as with the martial arts you program your head to use your body in a way that most people don't you also do things to it that most people would not do certain types of conditioning exercises that border on um I believe the word is called brutality but it is effective it's very useful so if you thought I photoshopped myself in there I'm sorry for this picture it's really bad but it was big and I'm like

oh I'll just take up my iPod this is this looks like crap um these fine gentlemen here friends of my dad uh realized that I had a amazingly I had an anger issue as a kid I know you find it hard to believe was a little bit angry oh maybe I was angry because I lived in Baltimore that's where I'm from explains so much doesn't it uh why someone be like oh why do you need self-defense you know a lot of people are like why you live in Baltimore you must have Liv in the in the county or the suburbs no I grew up at Cold Spring Lane Metro station literally two blocks from it it is a beautiful area but for

those thinking you photo I photoshopped myself in there I must have also photo photoshopped myself in here and notice I'm wearing the cool blue jams and the IOU shirt man I was happening you know you couldn't tell me anything and at that time that's probably janitor 2.0 cuz I believe I was a second degree black belt at that time I was younger than I am now let's just leave it at that let's not bring age into this so here I am at janitor 3.0 does that guy look happy that's a evil looking dude isn't it and I used to wonder why why do my students not want to talk to me after class like because

you're a dick you're telling them I want you to go home and take a stick and beat yourself in the leg with it because when you're in the tournament you got hit in the leg and you stopped but how many people have had mentors where you're working on scripting or something and you get stuck and what do they do are they kind and gentle with you yesterday no I didn't no I didn't why what happened somebody somebody railed on someone yeah oh but that's but that's the whole point it's like it seems like it's harsh but it serves its purpose it serves its purpose in order to motivate you to do what try harder to try harder to do

better to be that person that they see you to be um even if you don't see it they know man that guy's got so much ability if I can just motivate him how will I motivate him I will yell and get on him and drive him to be that person and he may not like me for a moment but sometimes that's just what you need to do I know if anybody's in the audience at are parents you understand what I'm talking about because come on you know you're like hey get moving so by imparting that knowledge of kinetic linkage they teach you to overcome the inherent vulnerabilities and the articulation of your points your creases the the injury points of the

body things that no matter how big and strong a guy looks you can take that guy down I say that because my wife is 4' n to bring a 6'5 guy to the ground I stopped her before she hit him in the temple though but well she did it for for a reason she was embarrassed my wife at that time was a high level brown belt this student who is 6'5 my wife's 4' n he hit her with a sidick and it picked her feet up from under her and set her on her butt he didn't mean to hit her in the head no he hit her in the stomach but the point was he

6'5 if you can't see those legs coming from that dist it's literally sitting there watching it going and shocked she gets up from the floor she approaches the Target and the same things that we just talked about she blocks his his technique she comes into him and Strikes him at the Achilles tendon with her Shin she then steps in and basically hook kicks him at the back of the knee which brings him down to her level that's not good enough for her her assault tactics were now I'm going to grab you by the collar jump up in the air and crack you in the skull and I told her to stop she's in the air I'm like mate she comes

down and I'm like did you get that out of your system there Rambo what do you get out of that you are a higher belt why would you and she goes well he kicked me and it it put me in a weird space like really because he looked at her with this dyed look like oh my God this little woman's going to she's going to crack me in the head going to crack me in the head and if I hadn't stopped her she probably would have if a person of that height can take out a much bigger Target that means that something different is going on because looking at the the disparity between the two you would think the smaller person

is obviously going to be in trouble but smaller people have lower center of gravity bigger people to compromise them have to do this with a center of gravity which compromises it so she was decidedly at an advantage but she didn't see that uh by the way I forgot to uh I actually have my GTP if you never felt the GTP these are it's like being hugged all day by a really heavy wet blanket by the end of the day I don't know what that is so you know we're wearing you know just like hackers have certain clothes in uniform well they have certain clothes in uniform you know they wear these things all the time and people

like well why do you wear that ghee that's not going to be on you in the street well you don't want it to be you want to wear something that actually is more difficult and restrictive so that when you're in your regular clothing your movement is unfed because you're able to move around because you've been com you've been restrained in something and you flow and make that look like you know it's it's ease there's a purpose of just about everything in the martial arts that I have found uh here I am at 4.0 receiving my having received my fourth degree from Master Sanchez he is a he is an amazing martial artist he's New York Puerto

Rican so he's new Rican uh and he speaks Japanese and he requires Japanese command set to be known in order to achieve thir degree black belt in his system so that was fun so thinking again now as a season person think of yourself as as a beginning you know uh Network person you know a certain level of things and that's what you do right but as you get older and become more seasoned you begin to see the targets and and items a little bit differently don't you you don't do some of the faux paas that you did when you were younger what's the same thing in the martial arts as you get older you start to see the targets

differently you start to think that okay well I know that joints points and nerds can be manipulated you know can they be mitigated no we've already discussed that but that doesn't mean that they have to be vulnerable because if you can see an attack coming almost like an IDs on IPS you can prevent it or you identify it and you have remediation for it right so as you get older the target Matrix changes although the attack Matrix still kind of stays the same you begin to think okay well this is really all I have to do in terms of conflict and this would be much simp this is this would be so simple if this was reality

for systems this is where uh hacking systems and hacking people differ what are these three things they're identified as targets but you know exactly what I'm talking about when you see those words correct as it applies to a person if if you're in conflict with someone physical conflict with someone and you remove one of those things what happens to the conflict it's done it's done fighting is actually not that difficult because all you have to do is remove any one of those things and the fight ends if I can stop you from moving guess what I get to do you have a nice day because I'm not going to stand there and go completely psycho on you I didn't

want to I wanted to not fight I everything to not fight uh i' I've talked to you well we we go through five steps in this in the seminar that I teach we go through the five steps which are talking walking and then you go into the the attack Matrix you know sorry it's like I tried to talk to you and tell you this isn't going to happen I tried to walk away you prevented that from happening now the attack Matrix happens uh and the attack Matrix is combined with uh other elements and sorry it usually does not work out well for you I still see myself by the way as being the 185 pound skinnier guy but now

I'm 250 and it's a different world for me I have a lot more mass to put behind my my my items so if I can yeah yeah sure sure that's what Jenny Craig says uh so if I can wipe out your Mobility obviously I can walk away from you if I can prevent you from seeing anything well once again I get to walk away and obviously rest ation if I can stop you from breathing you are going to have a very bad time when you wake up and feel like you in a throw up or you have an incredible throbbing headache which is bad um there have been some famous body hackers I'm sure everyone knows who this

is huh Bruce Le that's right this is Lee jum Bruce Lee you don't think of him as a hacker but literally this man pushed the limits of what physical ability are his training regimen was psychotic his warmup is 4 hours his warmup was 4 hours his workout literally lasted his entire waking period you know he was amazing in that respect you he's he's an amazing martial artist correct who is this instructor he built his own system he did build his own system but where did he build his system from he did build his system from Wing Chong his instructor was itman a very famous Wing Chung practitioner which is a very static system primarily composed

of the of the eight Gates and uation of hand techniques in order to protect the body with minor kicks you never heard of his instructor though right A lot of people have not heard of his instructor but what did he do he saw that that he learned and realized it was a classical mess so he hacked the martial art and came up with his own Marshal system which was the way of the intercepting fist gondo he said this is there's a lot of you know crap here there's a lot of things that do not make sense and we're doing it because people used to attack you like this but they they don't anymore they got smarter it's like I am not going to

be attacked by a guy with a banana for all you Monty Python people out there you know or pointed stick STI exactly or pointed stick people actually learned how to engage in combat so therefore combat had to evolve for those individuals who were hacking the body and he was a primary proponent of that uh these guys are in here because they are very important to me but uh for anybody that's interested in anybody BJJ out there Brazilian jiu-jitsu interested in it that kind of thing uh you will be familiar with with uh Koran because the Kimora lock which is the occlusion of the arm behind the back to force the uh a a defined articulation of these joints affecting

the shoulder the elbow and the wrist if you do it right um it he did it so much that it became his the technique was named after him he's interesting in a respect that by the age of 18 he was a fifth degree black belt it was unheard of unheard of people say well you know in the old days took a long time he was 18 he made fifth he made full Master you know it wasn't until he was in his good Lord I think it was his late 50s that he made sixth or seventh but by 18 he was beating everyone at the kodon which is the home of Judo but H's important in in this photo

to me is this man matat oyama people called him masuyama talk about being dedicated to your craft would you trust your craft to protect you from a hurricane that man did you know they had massive storms hit Japan back in the day and he would stand on top of skyscrapers and greet them and not come down like he took hacking the body to a to Beyond its limits here is part of his training regimen yes this is his hand this is a hammer this is conditioning he actually had people constantly pound his body so that his nerves did not respond literally protecting the system by deadening parts of the body he then said that's not good

enough what I need to do is prove that my my techniques are the ultimate and he created a technique which to this day is known as the godhead hand a technique that is so powerful it is nothing but a simple punch but powerful enough that in the scene where you see him wrestling this bull he would turn Bulls over and chop their horns off with his hand that became not good enough for him he would let them charge him and he would punch them in the skull and break their neck with all the inherent vulnerabilities in the body he had appeared to overcome the limitations but yet he was still susceptible to the same joint attack so what did he do he

practiced Judo he learned the throws he learned the class movements he incorporated into a system and that system to this day is called kyokushin Kai and it is kyokushin and it is known as the true fighting Kate because its black belt test its full Master Test is you have to fight a 100 people 100 people consecutively he did it in a day they now do it over a course of three days uh there are some famous martial artists that practice kosin one of them if you've you have seen in The Expendables if you've seen The Expendables his name is Dolph Lunden really he is actually a ridiculous third he might be a fourth by now fourth degree practitioner of

kyokushin so yeah that that happens it's awesome uh Don the Dragon Wilson is a practitioner I know I did not Photoshop myself into that suit I rented it oh no that's the one I own that's the suit I own um this is the this is actually from I got invited to the uh to the big dinner the big martial arts hall of fame uh dinner and I'm like oh yeah this is awesome you know I'm helping out doing all that stuff and I'm sitting at the table to talk to my students and they're calling a name and I'm like uh you know I'm not paying attention to that cuz I don't know who that is they're calling my name my

students are like that's you sir because how many of you are confident enough to take your abilities and go to any network and execute your vulnerability or execute vulnerabilities on people I do that when I travel I always take my ghee with me if you have a school nearby I may see you I had traveled to so many schools and instructors were like there's this guy and when he he seen town he throws my guys around and treats them like ragd dolls and that word got back to the Masters Hall of Fame and instructor new me said I know that guy and I basically was awarded a I was given award a lifetime award for

essentially the Kane the Qui Chang Kane Award of still running around old schooling it yay let me show you something you know cuz I have insomnia if I don't do something I will not sleep so when I land in your area I might be at your school uh John ja masado who you may or may not have heard of the reason why I bring him up is because he has an oem limitation he is missing most of his left hand and yet this man is an Abu Dhabi Champion he's one of the most technical Grapplers on the planet the Machado brothers are the cousins of the Gracies you may have heard of the Gracies the machados are ridiculously

good one of their famous students is Walker Texas Ranger hey if he's good enough to train Chuck Norris that must be a bad man right yet there's no no fact about him uh these are some individuals you may or may not know uh this is at another ceremony where they were being honored I was not uh that's my instructor Professor Jones Big John McCarthy who was also a black belt and BJJ uh and that is oh I just lost his name that is so sad uh Rich Richard steel sorry Richard steel oh good lord he killed me um that is Mr steel uh who is a famous referee and boxer uh Randy the natural Couture

and we're all at the Masters Hall of Fame where they were being which I was honored to have been invited to that so um going to have to kind of speed this up a little bit given that you know the body's a very complex system and we could go into a myriad of attack methodologies against the body and its subsystems we're going to talk about one particular thing gave it away in the title we're going to talk about your hand and what I challenge you to do is if you do not believe that the limitations of your ligaments and like and you don't have to participate uh but if you're next door nebor that will

allow you I want you to stand up and face your neighbor and uh if I can have

a and we're going go over something that's very very simple you're you're you're attacked someone grabs you doesn't matter how they grab you cross or same I'm sorry hands we're we're doing the hands so someone grabs you first of all you never give someone your hand you always let them take it you let them take it now what you want to do is it's very simple whenever people get grabbed they they do what's natural the natural thing would you get grabbed is to do what everyone hops on the choo choo train right they do this this makes absolutely sense but it's natural but the unnatural thing as we have learned unnatural activities on systems ourselves you can grip I know

where this is is um the the unnatural thing is a very simple circular motion this is all you actually have to do to escape a person's grip this is really all you do and if and because I am because I'm into ground I'm about to grab him to compromise because that tells him I might be a Grappler because I've grabbed him you know if I am a if I'm a fighter if I'm a if I'm a striker then I'm going to break and probably put my hands up because I want to strike so it's a very simple thing if someone grabs you and you can experience this yourself all you want to do is look

at your watch if your watch face is on the inside of your wrist you just and even you can get a good grip I can go slowly and look at my watch now if if I want hit to remove his hand absolutely and you can grab then what I'm going to do is I'm going to turn and I'm going to take his hand off because this leaves me in a breaching position so I can turn him into what I was talking about rear naked choke night night wake up with a headache so it's very simple all you're doing is either here pop or here where you turn the body through acquisition of force into this node into

this wrist and cause pain and tells the person to jerk the hand down feel free if you want or we may be out of time we like between five and 10 at this point okay so that's a simple attack that's a simple attack methodology we execute that principle every day in our Enterprise we don't try to whip out our aame on people when something happens do we we go for something simple just as our attackers are going for something simple they attack what I know it's after lunchable points vulnerable points you know the things that you can't sh up right now they're currently attacking people it's the easiest thing for them to do fishing you

know fishing spear fishing they're hitting people but if we train people hopefully they will in the same fashion have these same defense methodologies as we have in the martial arts so the question is if you had tried it what happened and then why didn't it work well just like with systems you have subtle variations in the way your hand is configured configuration issues just like with a system different levels of pain tolerance some people will attempt to hold on or attempt to force your arm down and that in that case their threshold to attack is much higher than you anticipated and you underestimated your ability so you should have raised your defense methodology and certain

small joint flexibility um some people are just very resistant or resilient to attack I have a friend where I'm not joking she can actually touch her wrist with the with her fingers cuz she's a gnist and she trained her body by stretching out these ligaments so it didn't work how do you make it work well that's how you get the car Hall in the same way as you continue to sit down to learn you know scripts or we sit down and learn the intricacies of systems we practice practice practice and that should make us better right hopefully we don't come across someone with a greater amount of skill because then we have to step our game

up uh that's a pi of students of mine at my at my house my brother Terry was visiting from USC he's a guy in the center and my wife who despite the fact that she's smiling at you that's that's not a nice woman she's a very nice woman but when she puts on her ghee she becomes something else you know she enjoys herself she enjoys the fact that as long as someone's not punching her she will take them to the ground she will choke or strangle them unconscious because if you attack her she looks like the victim but she's not that's really all I have um are there any questions I love this picture this

is from a seminar I did in Florida uh and this guy got so red because I didn't realize I was perfectly aligning my my bone onto his juggler and the blood was just pooling in him and his instructor goes yeah you could tap out if you want and he just sat there thinking he could take it this guy is a doctor he thought he could take it and he's just like just go and I'm like I let him go you know because that's what you do are there any questions that's anyone nothing I hope it was informative and and let you see the parallels between what happens in the martial arts and what happens you know in in what we do

in our in our day job this is my night job I actually do not charge anything for teaching martial arts because a lot of people took the time and invested in me and gave it to me for free you know I had to clean the schools and do those some crazy things cuz unfortunately didn't grow up with that kind of money but they wanted me to have it so therefore I feel compelled to pass it on and I see the parallels between it and my day job what do you see as the the parallel to come in other words you've been talking about how we attack you attack weak points we attack weak points what's

next I is is there a parallel of what's the next gen markal Art In terms testing I mean not not that I can see but as the martial arts is getting better people are getting smarter they are losing technology that we hold on to we hold on to Legacy stuff we don't find a way to migrate it there some systems that are still holding on to these Legacy things like you hear certain systems and you think well that's a bad art CU I saw Steven Seagal do that it's iido what do Steven Seagal actually practice he practices II Jitsu and he is the Pariah of the iido community because aido is nothing like that it's not a fighting

art it's a beautiful art it's a harmonizing art but it's not the I'm going to snap your arm I'm going to snap your limbs no that's the fighting system so there is still some Arts where you're like that guy's a black belt but he can't fight because he practices A system that is for tradition and classic and the like it is not for combat engaging combat and we maintain systems that can't be secured you know we're putting them online like skater systems and and the like they were never meant to have that level of interconnectivity but we're doing it you don't walk on the battlefield with your hands down around your waist going somebody swinging

somebody shooting because you're going to get hit so in that respect that's the that's a par I see parallel that I see um how we're going to fix that I I don't know at this point thank you for your

time what do you mean
