I got a laugh out of the opening sequence and the demo footage of Scott and some other guy on a stage was pretty amazing. All those flips and whatnot, sheesh.

Rufus, are you sure that was AK? It sounds like you're talking about the demonstration Ben Brackbill and I did in St. Petersburg, Russia at the Bol'shoy Theater for the 10th Anniversary Celebration of the Russian Martial Art Movement.

Yeah, Coach.

The first AK has a sequence of you and another guy doing a demo, then it says "with" and switches to this funny intro piece. Mike Hults and Shawn Menard. You've got a funny hat on and get mugged at the soda machine.

Yeah, that's Ben Brackbill, pretty amazong ukemi he's taking. I think the title comes up saying Bio-engineered Submission Fighting around then. Whenever I hear of AK I will always fondly remember to 'Think Outside The Box' :lol:

Guys, you have to bear with me - after producing 40 plus videos, they occasionally congeal into one long run-on sentence.

Many of the segments in their were spoofs from old Sunday Morning Kungfu Theater... my Tarantino moment. Thinking Outside the Box of all the stoic nonsense "martial artists" love to portray. :P

I loved AK's sense of humor. It is, however, rivaled by the Atomic Wedgie featured in IOUF.

The latter unfortunately was an accident... :oops:
Poor Scott. :wink:
