I’m reminded the line in Karate Kid when Miyagi says board no fight back… I have to admit I’m slightly grossed out by this. You can see by the time he starts on the second row, his shin is looking pretty beat. Many thanks to Chutebox57 for posting and sharing.
I once had a conversation, with Neungsiam about why I never really see him throwing below the waist. He mostly utilizes the left body kick. He replied with “it’s too easily blocked and it hurts!” I love the fact that someone who’s a former Lumpini Champion and Mitsubishi 8 man champion could say that.
Granted his tolerance for pain is on a whole other level to mine, but still… Most people have this image of a NakMuay kicking down a tree. I find it refreshing to know that someone of that calibre also finds it painful.

I hope he enjoys his shin splints

HAHAHAHAHAH that guy is a moron

Somehow, he doesn’t strike me as the cerebral, strategic type fighter…..
He can have that record indeed. Must feel a lot safer in the knowledge that you can defend yourself from being attacked by a stationary baseball-bat at night.

He didn’t even get the record. Apparently, there were a few that weren’t broken…just moved.

Idiot.

1. Looked mighty thin to be Louisvile sluggers from this angle..but I could be wrong. IN any case he hit the slimmest part.
2. Those aren`t leg kicks but soccer kicks.
3. flat footed, no arm swinging..he is missing out on alot of power generation.
4. Whats up with the doped up looking blonde
4. Idiot..I 2nd that motion
5. this was quite entertaining..may I please have another

This is basically an old kyokushin parlor trick to impress upon everyone your skill and chi, al etc.
The blonde’s ok once you get past her complete lack of dual eye coordination.

I thought “Boards don’t hit back” was Bruce Lee’s line before he opens up a can on Bob Wall’s ass in Enter the Dragon.
June 12, 2009 at 7:37 pm
I don’t understand guys like him risking health like this… OK, if he’s paid like 200.000€ or above, then I would understand him.

As I recall it these were who said the quote and roughly what was said:
Mr.Miyagi “Tree no hit back”
Bruce Lee “Boards don’t hit back”
Bolo Yeung “Brick no hit back”
There you have it : bricks, boards and trees covered.

i want to watch enter the dragon now. or at least hear the opening track.

Actually the Mr.Miyagi is a mis-quote.
I think it was like this:
Ralph Macchio sees a poster of a karateka smashing a tree: “Can you do that?”
Mr.Miyagi: “Don’t know. Never had to fight tree”.
