Yellow Bamboo Challenge

Peter- Claus is trying to push you and intimidate you-

Remember- If you win, you win nothing, they will cry foul and come upo with some crazy excuse like randi did for the joko test.

Do the test on your terms, accordnign to how YOU want to do it. Clause can easily get someone to do the test in sweden- he issued the challenge and I am sure he has friends in sweden too.

A) If clause backs out and wont do sweden- find someone else from here or any martial arts dojo- there is nothing special about claus.

B) If you dont want to go to denmark dont- cause ven if you win, there will be no prize.

Actually Claus you issued the challenge to yb personally.

Then you pretend that you dont get peters email so you can do the negotiations live online- typical skeptic lies and manipulations.

Now if you are going to designate a representative to do your bidding, it is just as easy to designate someone in sweden.

Remember this is NOT the randi challenge where people have to jump through all kinds of hoops and manipulations- so you cannot keep swinging the mythical money at him.

If Clause pussies out- ARE THERE ANY SKEPTICS IN SWEDEN WITH THE BALLS TO DO THE TEST?

I am not pretending I did not get Peter's mail. Email is not 100% certain.

I cannot for the life of me see the problems with negotiating online. Quite contrary, it leaves everything out in the open, so nobody can come back and accuse people of cheating.

I am not going to "designate" anyone to "do my bidding", as I have no intentions to "bid" on anything.

I am not swinging any money in front of Peter. This is a test by the Danish skeptics, Skeptica. End of story.

Peter,

Is baliwesternman in any way affiliated with Yellow Bamboo? Does he have any say in the test? If so, could you please coordinate among yourselves, before you continue the negotiations?

It is highly disruptive to have someone butt in with these outburst, that contribute nothing.

BWM- I got nothing to do with the test.

I bet you dont even understand how funny that is:

1. It is a public forum so I have the freedom to butt in any time I want to.

2. 99% of all the posts here contribute nothing! :-)

You are, of course, able to provide evidence for this accusation?

So why do you interfere?? Stop pretending that you have anything to do with YB then.

O.......K. I will assume for now that you are an impostor, someone who does not have any affiliation with YB.

Excuse me?? Please state your evidence of this.
 
Place your bets, Ladies and Gentlemen... will Peter's response be:

A) The attacker didn't hate the target (enough)

B) The Australian Chapter of Yellow Bamboo are all beginners

C) The Australian Chapter of Yellow Bamboo isn't official Yellow Bamboo, and therefore is corrupted

D) It doesn't count, because it's the SWEDISH chapter that we're talking about

E) The attacker needed to charge from further away

F) Silence

Step right up, folks - don't be shy, place your bets, the window will close momentarily... :D

G) It was that little dog, he caused the ki to be deflected.

The sad thing is, these people who subject themselves to these tests, like Peter, have apparently been convinced by the YB people that they really do have magical ki powers. I hope that nobody is going to take their level 3 YB certificate and try to deflect a train or a falling rock, but I'm afraid it's just a matter of time before something equally stupid and deadly happens to one of these poor slobs.
 
I'm very confused - it seems that yellow bamboo defense translates to ducking? I'm honestly not trying to be sarcastic but that seems to be all the guys are doing in the video - except the one heavy-set fellow that fell victim to a sloppy single-leg takedown. I used to practise Brazilian jiu-jitsu and saw nothing on the video that would defend against even a white belt in BJJ. Thank god the one YB guy wasn't defending against a Thai-boxer, as soon he leaned down he would have caught a knee square in the face. I'm desperately trying to understand where the fighting technique is in this? Do you train in strikes or grappling?

[edited to add] I'm really trying to be open-minded here and not seem caustic...
 
That clip was great.

I love the way the guy rolled them up.. then said what losers they were at the end.

Where did this clip come from ? (Obviously Aus.. but I mean who conducted it etc)

For the life of me I find it hard to fathom these fools who think they can stop someone running up and knocking them down WITHOUT TOUCHING THEM.
 
Naw, it wasn't martial arts at all - just a few reasonably solid rugby football tackles. Although the strangling bit would have got him 10 minutes in the sin-bin if it was a first-grade game!
 
What amazes me is the fact that so many of you know about BJJ, mixed martial arts, and realistic martial arts in general. I mean, I would expect Skeptics to be the first to question the garbage that's put out in popular media, but the fact that more than a few people in this thread have a good handle on things is still impressive.

Post this thread in any random forum on the Internet and you'll have a load of garbage ranging from Bruce Lee's zombie to the deadly point-sparring of Taekwondo.

Good show guys.

If you think you're confused, imagine the state of mind - pre and post test - of the YB people. :D

If you want to see what they think they're doing, try www.yellowbamboo.com.

Oops. Did I say "think"? I meant "imagine". :)
 
Phrost,

You know you hit the nail on the head.

It IS surprising (see below) how well researched people here are and how good their general knowledge is. I actually find this site a GREAT reference for all sorts of things.

It is the nature of most people here to question things.. not in a stupid blind way but in a .. this sounds like BS so I better thoroughly check this out sort of way.

That is why it is SOOO galling when people come in here and say.. “challenge is rigged”.. “you guys are just as single minded as the believers” .. “you are cheaters too” etc etc..

NOTE : Well not really that surprising.. as one who is logical, honest and has a reasonable IQ will quickly determine how bogus the whole paranormal world is.. so it is expected that Skeptics would be these type of people.

Actually, I found the little dog to be the most impressive thing next to the rugby guy. :)

Regarding your other comments... yeah, you're right. No doubt some of these folks will try for the next Darwin award.
 
That clip was hilarious!

Who was the guy at the end saying :"losers"? Man...I wish I was there to knock them out!

Like the headlock too.

I though YB stupidity was only confined to outside of Australia...now I know.

the yb member failed the test, it seems YB can not be used as a self defense against martial arts

I see. So you abandon the test with the Danish Skeptics?
