Someone posted this video on my website, so I figured I'd archive it to share. Haven't seen another thread on this, so if I'm duplicating something, feel free to berate me for it.

Yellow Bamboo practicioner attempting to stop someone from running up and punching her. Needless to say that hilarity ensues.

For those of you that are really impatient (or still doing cave paintings over 56k) here's an animated version of it:

I don't have any more details than this, so if anyone does please add them.
 
Do a forum search on "bamboo" in the title only and you will see several related threads. Also, Randi addressed this type of thing in some recent (last year or so?) commentary.

[derail] Your avatar drives me nuts. I always slide down until it disappears. Ever given any thought to just one frame? [/derail]

To avoid being driven nuts by animated gifs, simply click the stop button. Of course, if you do this before the page has loaded completely, it will stop the page loading too.

I just decided to set my preferences to not show the avatars... makes the pages load faster.

Editted to add: The video link was "file not found".

Plus for added amusement you can see the hilarity that there is when you use "yellow bamboo" in the search box of http://groups-beta.google.com/grphp?hl=en&tab=wg&q= ..

You're right, it does make a difference. But somehow I miss those avatars. They kinda add to the posters personality. But I'll survive :)

D'oh. Was .com instead of .net. Fixed the link.

Anyway, how can you NOT like Buzz Aldrin punching a woo in the face for saying the moon landings were a giant conspiracy?
 
Oh, I liked Buzz's action ... it was probably overdue. But it is hard to cheer it after seeing it hundreds (it seems) times.
 
My mother always told me that I should never hit a girl...

but she never said anything about not laughing when a girl gets hit, so...

HaHaHaHaHaHaHa!

Stupidity hurts!

I'd say violence never solves anything, but it's so damn entertaining.

I detect a pattern here.

What is it with you and videos of people being punched in the face?

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

If something like this existed you think all those samauri on the battlefield wouldn't have bothered with armor and sharp weapons.

Actually... the woman claimed she could ward off the punch to her face using her Sooper Dooper Yellow Bambooper chi powers.

She seems to have been rudely disabused of this notion.
 
The people in the film speaks swedish.
First the attackers says "tell me when you are ready"
After the attack the woman says "no it doesn't work", then "no, no I'm ok" then again "it doesn't work"
"what doesn't work?"
can't hear a few words
then "but how hard did you hit?"

Wow, that attacker must have very strong natural chi power in order to penetrate the defenses of a trained YB practitioner. I highly recommend he go to YB island and send all his money to them so that he can properly train his powers.

I love it also, I just wish you'd repeat the last frame a couple of times so that that poor lady stops getting elbowed in the boob!
