I have a theory about these kind of guys.
only one in a hundred people can be knocked out consistently by girlly shots. So what happens is 99 people goto this club - don't get knocked out - laugh their asses off and leave.
Then the one guy who has a glass jaw/head/elbow, etc goes then, gets knocked on his ass and figures that cause it happened to him it will happen to everyone.
He joins, and since they can all get knocked out super easy all the time they take turns tapping each other lightly, falling unconscious and feeling like martial gods.
Basically an extreme case of self selection.
Alternatively, its just a deluded circle jerk :) woohoo! -

They have to keep measuring up and taking aim before they actually hit the other guy. So much for applicability...
I really wonder how often they need to repeat this in practice until it works once for the camera. I bet the success rate is very low...
We are aware of the same spots they use in my own MA, and getting hit on them does make you tingle for a second, but there's no massage coming for us, and we're not waiting/hoping for the knock-out...
It seems they condition themselves to get knocked out. It doesn't work on everyone and still they sit and wait for the massage. There's no massage coming in a fight, you gotta take that shot...
Same thing with the guy delivering the blow. Is he gonna massage his 'victim' in a streetfight, too? Is first instinct will be to go there, cuz he's training like that, and someone that's not knocked out, will be very pissed, cuz the spots hurt like hell, and get him/her right there ...

Wu De yes. Just liek it's all too easy to make your own system, put a bunch of nonsese bullshit you learnt froma couple of classes and a book, and charge ppl £7 a lesson/year contract of £5-300.
