OK I decided to watch a few more, and amended my opinion.

Repetitive speech + freaking out over trivial/predictable things like a person's arm dislocating after a terrible breakfall + no interest in discussion of these opinions = I'm wondering if this person is on the autism spectrum.

I will admit this is in part one of the reasons why I feel children should be doing a grappling art. I don't believe most of them are going to generate the power in striking to cause any real issues.
I would say that in general Martial Arts are safer than say Football(American). As well as many other hobbies.

Sure
"Brain Damage in Martial Arts CAN'T be prevented by wearing a helmet, because the brain moves freely inside the skull, due to the brain being gelatinous in nature, meaning it's soft and effected by momentum. When a person is punched or kicked in the head, the acceleration and deceleration forces often cause the brain to smash into the skull, usually leading to contusions, which is a bruising of the brain tissue and often causing axonal shearing, which is a stretching and sometimes tearing of the axons.

Martial Arts Brain Damage exposes sparring and throwing people as possible causes of brain contusions and axonal shearing, commonly referred to as Diffuse Axonal Injury, DAI. From kicking people in the head to people landing on their heads, traumatic brain injury, TBI can result from Martial Arts."

Also they makes some claims about how one should never ever body slam someone.

Yeah TBIs can be caused by slipping on ice or diving or driving a car or a million other things I could mention. What this video can't show is how it's more prevalent in martial arts vs. the other 999,996.

Beware: This video series has been posted before on Bullshido. It's part of a weird, anti-martial arts campaign filled with loads of disinformation and made up Youtube documentaries.

They all use a simulated voice, which is creepy.

This is basically martial arts conspiracy bullshit. There are other videos that try to equate MA to child abuse and even worse...trying to equate sexual abuse and MA schools.

Don't buy into this garbage.

Here's the old thread discussing these:

Merged:
Anti-martial arts propaganda or a legitimate issue?
