Nunchuck expert and stuntwoman Thekla Hutyrova rates 11 nunchuck scenes in movies and television for realism, such as "Enter the Dragon" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." Hutyrova has been practicing nunchucks, or nunchaku, for over 18 years and is a martial arts world champion.
Hutyrova discusses the accuracy of nunchuck scenes in "Enter the Dragon" (1973), starring Bruce Lee; "Kick-Ass 2" (2013); "Barry" (2019); and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" (1990). She also comments on the portrayal of nunchuck showmanship in "Game of Death" (1978); "Legend of the Fist" (2010), starring Donnie Yen; and "Ip Man 4: The Finale" (2019). Hutyrova analyzes the practicality of nunchucks in "Warrior" (2020), with Andrew Koji; "Jumanji: The Next Level" (2019); "Black Dynamite" (2009), starring Michael Jai White; and "Lady Bloodfight" (2016).

@@MichaelBuieFilms To be fair its not that they are ineffective, no-one would have ever used them if that was true. They just aren't as effective or easy to use as more conventional weapons and can, more so than most, be a danger to the user if not handled properly. The whole flail aspect also does mean that yeah, there's really no way to "pull your punch" with one without making it quite visually obvious that you are indeed pulling your strike, which kind of defeats the point of trying to make it look real.

I have a friend who is an actual black belt martial arts sensei, and I showed him the 2012 version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, and he was blown away by the accuracy with the fighting techniques displayed. He also said that the fact that Michelangelo was given the Nunchucks for a very good reason, as they are by far the most difficult weapon to master. Splinter gave Michelangelo the Nunchucks in order to get him focussed, since he's so zany and his mind is all over the place.

The Black Dynamite flinching part was intentional.

Michael Jai White is pretending to be afraid of the weapon he is wielding for this comedic effect. He is acting as an actor in one of those films.

Guys, read the video title, it clearly says "...How Real Is It?", she wasn't wrong at all about Bruce Lee, you have to admit the "movie" factor played quite a role when it came to Bruce Lee (just see how much impact he had on all martial artists or just the general public), that's mostly due to his great acting performance (ofc his fighting skills are not a question at all) but on the other hand, movies from his time were alot more about the "wow" factor rather the realistic aspects. So ofc she's right, it's unrealistic and a little unpractical to do that with nunchucks, you could argue that there's the intimidation factor, but once again, I think in a real fight, your opponent would not wait for you to do your "taunt".

Also remember that the whole "showing off" thing is in itself a form of "attack". You are not "physically" hitting your opponent but attacking them psychologically. If I were to somehow find myself wanting to attack someone and someone doing that "showing off" with nunchucks like that... I probably would not want to engage them so much anymore. “The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting.” - Sun Tzu Edit: You also find this "behavior" in nature. Bears will jump up and stand on their back legs to visually increase their size, gorillas beat their chest/do fake "charges". The list goes on and on and most animals have some kind of "roar" they do to deter an opponent and we humans are no different... How many people have deployed "verbal judo" to subdue a would be "attacker".... It is a VERY legit "attack" :)

Ya, If I were to actually fight with them (pretend I won't knock MYSELF out with them...) I would keep them in a "cocked" position or have them stationary. If you were to fight with fists, you would not wildly swing them around. Boxers don't for sure. They might throw their combos but each punch is more or less "calculated". If your weapon is in motion it cannot "react" to anything.... weather it be defensive block or a strike to a open defense in opponent. If it's in motion "showing off" and a hole opens up.... your busy "showing off" rather than taking advantage of that opening. If there was distance between me and opponent.... then give them a "show".

They may or may not "wait" but what's actually intended to be happening there is not a taunt, but the way they are actually meant to be used , so that the opponent doesn't actually know when or where the strike will come from. Most typically won't just rush in hoping to avoid being hit, but if they were to just rush in and attack you'd likely be screwed

Bruce Lee didn't really even care for the nunchucku. He learned it though because it did have a nice flare for movies and was taught by Master Fumio Demura's wife. One thing I give the TMNT part is that foam suit wasn't the easiest thing to maneuver for those guys, which I believe all came from Ernie Ryes Sr.'s school. Yet, they all performed pretty damn well in them, form me I give them credit and it's hard to rate practicality with a movie about giant turtles. Black Dynamite with Michael Jai White...he's very knowledgeable but the movie was massive satire so not sure you can take practicality from that. I can see why it was difficult for her to figure all of it in.

You slid the nuchuck (which had rope to attach them not chain) through said nose ring, grabbed both handles, and pull said horse, who probably was tugging some kind of farm plow behind it.

An old friend of mine who practiced with nunchucks told me that the "ready" pose with the 'chucks held behind one shoulder, one hand holding same side high like a hammer and the other crossed over and low meant that your opponent couldn't tell where the swing would be coming from depending on which hand you swung with. Something fairly unique to nunchucks as swords/axes/spears/staves have more predictable arcs. I'd also note that in all the various martial arts schools I've trained in I have had demonstrated many times various techniques to deal with swords and staves barehanded but no one have ever tried to show me a way to intercept a nunchuck.

Consider that flexible weapons (nunchucks, three section staves, whips, kusari gama, etc.) all have a sufficient length to wrap around limbs raised in defense against them.

Having worked the nunchaku since I was 13, I can tell you from my own personal experience, the weak point of attack against that is the center chain/rope of the chucks or hand holding them. With a close watchful eye, and knowing the precise time to approach for the takeover is critical. Practice is key, either on the back swing, or closer to the opponent's body, you eventually figure it out, after you get hit a few times... lol

Hands down the MOST impressive display of someone using nunchucks and it not being a rehearsed action scene, but being used in RL and showing precision, the video with Bruce Lee playing Ping-Pong with Nunchucks is absolutely amazing. Also, seriously think that getting hit anywhere on the head/face with a REAL strike from a nunchaku is all it would take to make an attacker to not want to continue trying to assault/kill you. I don't care who you are, or how tough you believe or think that you are, if you get it in the ear with these, you're done. The chances that you can break someone's cheek, orbital bone, or nose is VERY high. Buuuuuut, the thing is that you need to actually be trained how to use them, otherwise you will most likely end up just hitting yourself in the back of the head, or the ear, or face in general, lol.

@@John_Smith_ I think you have it backwards. If you were fighting a soft, unarmored target, you would almost always want a sharp weapon over a blunt one. Think about it, would you rather be stabbed with a knife or hit with a stick? Blunt weapons were historically used for two reasons: a) you didnt have a sharp weapon, or b) your opponent was wearing armor tougher than your sharp weapon could pierce effectively. Plus, nunchucks are among the least effective of blunt weapons. A plain long sturdy stick would be preferable to nunchucks for many reasons, for example greater reach, manouverability and general ease of use. Though nunchucks are of course better than no weapon at all.

Expert? The problem I have with people talking about the effectiveness of nunchucks is them talkingn about bounce-back. If you are hitting with them correctly... which IS with the last inch or so of the stick, it has high velocity and force, and it doesn't bounce back. And you absolutely can catch someone with the chain. If you are already wrapping, they are behind the curve trying to escape that. I fight Praying Mantis, and nearly every block I partially capture with the Mantis Hook. Capturing punches is entirely plausible.

I could do that with my set either alternating or at the same time which took some upper torso coordination because of the arm pull, and me using real chucks that were about 4 pounds on each set. My friends in the Tai Chi class liked it because it was slower than when the foam ones were used and they could see how they moved as opposed to the super light practice sets that we could spin like lightning, and as I mentioned before I had the chains measured to my palms so it was easier to walk them around my hands, and they would just go to where I could walk them and grab without having to move my hands up or down.

In demonstrating, I use to hold it a little closer to chain, but for actual striking I held it closer to the end for more momentum and avoid being disarm (like in stick fighting).

I like that she wasn't baited on judging an idol like Bruce Lee, probably because she feels there it is entrapment and out of respect for him. For that, she has definitely earned my respect.

Are you serious?! Bullets can't fire themselves, you need a gun, duh, which requires a license to carry one. So I'm not sure what you're getting at. If you think that they should be legal, well that depends on the state as you know, but they can do some serious dmg and they can be easily concealed, so that's probably why they're illegal in some states and countries.

I find it interesting that most people hold nunchakus high near the rope or chain, which makes control easier. Bruce Lee held the nunchaku closer to the bottom which demonstrates his greater degree of control and extends the range of the weapon. Note that Dan Inosanto holds it in a similar manner.

Maybe this movie isn't well known, but there is an INSANE nunchuku demonstration in a kids movie from 1993 called *Sidekicks* with Chuck Norris and Jonathan Brandis. Wish she did that one too.
