    He seems alright, I don't really get these ancient jewish martial arts he's on about though.

    looks that way.
    But if you read his background it said he trained in kuk sool won and in hapkido. And I looked at the kuk sool masters site and did not see him there.

    what'd you guys think of his videos? kinda hard to tell due to the fact it's just kata on his own, but it looks like some form of kung fu or something. I think he wears a white belt for a reason though ^.^

    psbn matt great sage = of heaven

    thats because he he trains in kuk sool under Gm in sun seo (Gm in hyuk suh's brother) of the korean kuk sool association a splinter organisation of the World Kuk Sool Association.

    if he is the inheriter (sp?) of ancent secret isreali martial arts why did he need to study so many korean ma's for such a long time?

    A bull was around here. It had eaten recently :bang:

    The weapons are all Chinese/Korean. He doesn't make a big deal out of wrestling or boxing even though wrestling was popular among Jews from Biblical times, and Jews such as Mendoza revolutionized boxing just a couple centuries ago. The fan and stances are pure Korean. Where are the spear and shield, the short sword, the sickle sword, the bow?

    He lies like a cheap carpet.

    This guy is such a crank...
    In the single sword thing what's his problem with jerking off his sword?
