I don't think the guy scammed anyone, maybe those who believe that you can effectively self defend with empty anything should try and use it. ![;)](//snotr.ams3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/images/smilies/wink.png)

Most likely a scam, I wonder if the instructor believes in what he is doing. The first thing that occurred to me was that he was using power of suggestion (hypnosis) to control his "attackers", however, if this is the case, hypnosis only works on those willing to submit. Makes no sense as a defensive skill.

I remember seeing videos on a technique very similar to this one. The practitioner that time was of Chinese descent, bit on the older side with that awesome "Kung-fu master" beard and was using lots of "diverting" movements, which resembled fast-forwarded puppetry. Nonetheless, he accepted a challenge from some fairly low-ranking MMA fighter and tried it in an actual fight...
To this day, I remember bursting into laughter when the MMA fighter came up to this person and basically grounded him with one, very well landed, straight to the nose... Gloves on, of course, so the fight got back up afterward but it was perhaps even sadder than that straight as it turned out into one-sided dogfight... =P
#10 This video disproves neither, don't worry! Also, how could you even begin to compare Jedi and this guy?! xD

What's that you say Jedi? Those weren't the rubes you were looking for?

So basically it's an odds game. You have to hope that the guy who attacks you in the street with a meat cleaver is a believer, or you're going home in separate bags. ![:S](//snotr.ams3.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/images/smilies/huh.png)

lol, nice clip
But in fact there is a "no contact technique" used in order to disperse an attack. e.g. Russian Systema http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCThgT3yxfs

#25 That one is fake too.Systema is BULLSHIT. It's a made-up style created by a little fat Russian named Michail Ryabko who is laughed at by combat athletes in Russia, at least the few that have even heard of him. He sells that crap to suckers, who buy into it as much as other idiots buy into Chi-blasts. It has NOTHING to do with Spetsnaz or the Russian army. They don't know it, and certainly don't teach it. Ryabko was a run of the mill cop who claimed to train Interior Police, who have nothing to do with Army Spetsnaz.
