A few months ago I wrote the Martial Arts Myth article which showed a so called chi master getting a beating in an actual fight.
I found the following clip with George Dillman associate Leon Jay trying to knock out a chemist who does not believe in the no touch knockout.
Dillman claims that if you raise your toes or place your tongue in certain places in your mouth then you can prevent being knocked out.
WHAT A LOAD OF RUBBISH!
To me he seems to be giving excuses even whilst being interviewed, but I have no experience with this area of martial arts, so if anyone has any knowledge about it, please give use your comments below.

Consider that some trainings may actually make your more vulnerable to certain things. Also consider that certain trainings may have value, but not in the way that people think they do.
Energy training is valuable, but not widely understood. Developing an awareness of energy can actually make you vulnerable to it if you meet someone that is able to use it more than you are.
I've also found that many people misunderstand what it can and can't do. It isn't an invisible force field that will knock someone out. It's subtle, and as such, has benefits beyond simple ideas of power. You can't expect obvious results from subtle training.
But when even correct energy methods get incorporated into an environment that isn't prepared to understand them, like most karate schools, then the intent of the exercises is confused.
This leads to failures like in the clip because the training was never meant to do that in the first place.
See my post here:

I have a differing view of Chi, Ki, etc.
My disclaimer too because my opinion generated a lot of "energy". ;-)

I call bullsh*t on Dillman and all such "skills". Sorry if this is a bit harsh, but these kind of schools have been proven frauds over and over and over. There are multiple videos on Youtube with so called Ki masters getting clobbered and publicly humiliated.
FAT DUMB IDIOT....GO INTO THE UFC AND KNOCK PEOPLE OUT WITHOUT TOUCHING THEM MORON!
