I'm having trouble following what you're saying. Are you saying the larger context of that video shows that the student was being a pain or something?
That John LaTourrette is as you said, jerk and egomaniac. Also, John LaTourrette has account on 'Martial Arts Talk'. It is another style of martial arts forum out there.
I read the Bullshido thread on John LaTourrette it does say allot about him and his life. The thing that impresses me about bullshido, is how well they do there research.
