Chi whizz

I watched a programme on BBC3 the other evening called Mind, Body and Kick Ass Moves. It is a kind of martial arts review. It seems to be a blend of quite amusing tricks and demonstrations of seriously powerful concepts. The serious part focuses on chi.

An older man, an exponent of something called Okinawa Karate, was able to prevent his attacker from even initiating a strike by using his chi to “disrupt” his would be assailant's concentration.

Call me someone who has had my mind disrupted by watching too much TV, but I could feel Okinawa Karate man’s energy from my settee.

I believe that chi can be used for all sorts of amazing things including healing yourself and others.

The man who managed to hang a 150kg weight from his testicles can't be making it up.
