Hello from 10 years later. He is now 83 and just formed a new organisation. TOGKF.

cool

Proud of you

Поскромнее будь 😉✊

Can you scan the picture and upload, then post link to an image here? Just curious:))

Who cares, who you were trainging with? Who are you? Are you a good fighter? Did you ever won any compatition? Do people know your name?

or WORSE

His punches can kill.

True iron fist, at its best

Worse since you could develop the iron shirt and get hit by a sledge hammer while this guy will break you.

I also train Kyokushin and use TONS of training methods from Goju Ryu and Uechi-Ryu. Extremely good stuff and I'm finding it all fits together nicely. OSU 🥋

id need this onmy skull and neck id be unstoppable

@@asmrbully6980 Mike tyson had a very conditioned neck, but those exercises hurt your spine a lot over the years. It's not worth it. Conditioning isn't for the skull or neck unfortunately

>reddit

I was going to mess with him, but not now after you said something

OOF

Wait seriously? Where did you get that from?

And UFC fighters can't? Lol they can only kill with feet huh?

@@lifebydesign9435 UFC fighter don't possess that one punch kill ability like this man does. He's been doing it for decades.

@@edgar22452 what you're trying to say is his fists are much harder because he's spent more time conditioning them. Which would help trying to kill someone yes. But the thing is its actually really easy to kill someone in a few blows if not one. Most people can't but there's a vast majority martial artists that can. Would it be easy for him possibly. Can ufc fighter do it too you betcha! Let's take him off a pedestal. He's cool but dam

@@edgar22452 also if you saw a ex UFC fighter of the same age who still trains I guarantee they would be at similar skill level.

@@lifebydesign9435 UFC fighters are highly overrated. Most of them couldn't kill with one punch like a highly trained karateka. U need to stop believing the hype known as the UFC.

there's only one period and not a single comma in what you wrote how do you expect anyone to read it

Kofi Perry I read it. This is KZfaq man not a formal essay writing platform. Those who read should actually find their own pace if they wanna read it.

I have 22 years in karate too and i am amazed on how much i still have to learn. My goal is to train in Okinawa. Oss.

Well, I will agree, but partially... The reason I am saying this is because Okinawans were always by definition "crazy". Plus, this is where Karate really started from. Even traditional Japanese training was not like the Okinawan one. It's more soft. This does not necessarily mean "bad". It depends on what you want to achieve with your Karate. Shuri-te for instance is way more hard (as a style) than Naha-te, which concentrates more on breathing, just to bring it up as an example. Then again, I expect you will say "yes, but training for your body is a different thing". True. However, there are exercises for your body that are good for your body and there are exercises for it that are bad for it. Don't forget, we ARE contemporary people and not traditional because almost all of us are not doing Karate for survival (like it was needed a few centuries ago), but we are doing it as a hobby (or even as a profession, sure). Of course I admire karateka like Morio Higaonna and even the great Hayashi and Kanazawa (legends) or many others, regardless of style. But in the organization I am a member of, we emphasize the "genki budo", meaning, in other words, if you prefer (in a free translation), "karate for good health". Our leaders constantly develop and change our style always in cooperation with doctors that practice karate in our union. So, although I am not a doctor, I do not think that transforming your hands into weapons is the healthiest thing to do. (For instance, if you were a piano player, this would destroy your hands - just a silly example that still is legit and you can see where I a getting at. But also from a health perspective, I don't think it's good). Other than that, I will AGREE with what you say. What you guys do in America, what we do in Greece, what all of us do today all over the world, is not as traditional as what these guys in Okinawa do, not only because we, by definition, are not traditional ourselves (and will never be to that extend), but also because Okinawa was where it all started and there, it IS tradition by all means! Of course it couldn't be the same anywhere else in the world - even in Japan :) Just my two pence and good evening from Greece! :) Funny coincidence, just like you, I am also training for a total of 22 years (I started in 1990 though but I stopped for 7 years at some point).

True. I've been doin karate 4 a long time. The dojo I go is really good but my sensei takes things seriously when it comes 2 goin 2 a tournament. But anyway I talk in the future. Have a nice day.

Saku Yamamoto These arts used to be used to kill on a battlefield. In modern times masters incorporate spirituality and hide the lethal techniques and skills until later. But what about those who seek to study only the arts application as utilized in war? Money and laws have watered down the arts.

@@dynamicelmo5427 Yup!

Exactly! They had to use their bare hands to defend themselves.

🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🤣🤣 pah was the funniest one

Funniest comment in this video.

Замазать надо кремом джонсонс беби, смягчить

Why

surely his students is more agile and fast than him because theyre more younger + sensei Morio teaches other lower dan senseis

ufc fighters would piss their pants messing with this man.

@@krtlkid The only solution is running away. Literally

I was thinking about what would think anyone who do not practice karate about this video....and I'm wondering also about why do I love karate even knowing I don't live in a constant danger world...... I guess I just love pain, as someone told above 😂

We are getting there...............

@@DJAraRealSalsa The global elites have to find a way to keep us down.

Or the penitentiary

Yeah I was thinking like you that he can fight or not. After watching many clips one thing that I know is he can fight and also kill.

He can kill.

"You are a fighter, but he is a killer" -Mikey Rocky 3

who exactly? we see ufc fighters getting broken cause they lack this training method, not the other way around.

Don't break your hands when punching bare knuckle.

How about save yourself from very early onset arthritis and extremely deformed knuckles and use your palm when punching a hard object (such as the head) and use your knuckles when punching, for example, the kidneys? The hands aren't designed to be thrown against concrete like this; the only reason you'd do it is to conform to some deluded martial arts tradition or to boost your ego and feel tough. Look at your hands when writing a response to this, do you see how intricate they are? That's what they were designed for, they were designed for doing intricate things such as grasping onto and holding objects and serving as mediums to transfer out intelligent thoughts (e.g. through writing literature, typing, etc.). Just seems strange to me.

Mod Justin, actually human hands have evolved for punching hard stuff.

to be fair, sensei got gud. just because you have yet to git gud, does not mean that others are incapable of the task.

Mod Justin, if that's your shallow point of view on this, then you will never understand the world of fighting

You are so ignorant :D

@@David-ku7mt OK, You make a video of yourself "taking a punch" from a knife. Show us how cool and invincible you are! :)

@@gatocles99 First of all, you can't tell me what I should do. :) Second, you are ignorant for neglecting the fact that Karate practitioners do not only practice body conditioning but also different techniques to successfully defend themselves in a dangerous situation. I hope your arrogance does not blur the fact that people like Sensei Higaonna are not idiots, thus no one would jump in front of a knife - including myself. Have you ever heard about things like situational awareness? Or the motto that you should use your legs when it comes to ego fights, that is RUN AWAY? So stop being a child and watch another video if you do not like this one.

@@David-ku7mt Yes... you would run away... leaving your wife and child to fend for themselves against a knife wielding criminal. Lots of "sensei" are idiots and frauds.

@@gatocles99 Whatever you say, you are right!

A lot of what you say is common sense and logical. However, the hands do build thicker bones in response to the constant conditioning.

@@amk8411 That I didnt know but on the other hand I consider really foolish the "mystical" arrogance being build cause someone broke a piece of wood with his hands after hundred thousands hit with his hands against sand or wood. A saw is way faster without "Chi".. See you!

Well not really. For example in Muay Thai if you constantly side kick a banana tree your bones will be slightly damaged, then this will make you take a rest and your bones will recover making a thicker and stronger bone. That side kick is the same move that defeated Rick Roufus. Trust me you don't want to get hit by a Muay Thai kick or scraped by an Uechi Ryu or crushed by a Goju Ryu.

You are ignorant.

@@dylan.j.schreiner And you are a professor of nothing

ryu kyu Nope!

Yeah he looks like he is suffering.

its good to do as long as you dont over due it just a few min a day is more then enough and not to hard

No dumbass
