Nice, but I wonder how this martial art (whatever it is) would fare in a real street confrontation. What do you think?

[MizuRyu]

It's a very rare form of kung fu called Shaolin Xin Yi Ba.

"street confrontation" depends on about 700 things. like: Where? Do they have a gun, a knife, brass knuckles? Are they bigger, smaller? Do they have martial arts experience? Boxer? Wrestler? Is there an element of reasonable force? Intent to kill, maim, injure?

Basically, it depends wholly on the situation. Nearly every martial art is good for a street confrontation, it just depends on a whole lot of factors.

[SatyagrahaKF]

That's some nice kung fu there.

[Chaz]

Yes, I can see alot of that being very effective in the streets, he is obviously a skilled individual. Nice Clip!

It would fare extremely well in a street confrontation maybe even too well, that is well enough to get one arrested. You wouldn't believe how many of those techniques could kill an adversary, if applied without any control.

Kung Fu is a real martial art and was devised to help one win - or at least survive-battles in many scenarios, which nowadays includes the street.

Obviously, one needs to be a skilled kung fu exponent to make these techniques work.

[Menjo]

Yea I must agree, some serious training and hard work here.

I think it would successful in a street or real life confrontation.

Entertaining to watch also .
