www.hulu.com/human-weaponShow I found on Hulu. Gives a really good demo on the different strikes for different fighting styles. First episode actually goes into detail on a Muay Thai elbow strike.

I own the series. The eskrima episode is my favorite.

I want to know what they were actually swinging at the end of that one because those metal rods should have been cracking ribs all over the place.

They are metal rods, but covered in a rubbery foam. When I was in the Philippines, that's what we beat on eath other with. It did bruise and knocked the wind out of me, but wasn't terrible. I'll ask Ipman about that. He studied that martial art a bit.

Holy shit I forgot about human weapon. It's the only TV show that makes you feel more of a badass just by watching it. I loved it.

I watched the first two episodes and came up with at least three new shots I want to try. Also a bunch of actual fighting moves that they make look so easy that any idiot would want to try them.
