Of all the
aspects of
Martial Arts,
the most
dramatic and
controversial
are the extreme
powers
demonstrated in

action films.

apparently
impossible
physical feats
and immense
destructive
forces are
tricks and
fantasy. Yet
these feats are
possible in the
real world. Some
exceptional
Martial Artists
are able to
train their
bodies to endure
enormous
pressures and
destroy
immensely strong
objects with
nothing more
than their own
flesh and blood.
This video is
the first to
concentrate on
this subject.
Using human
powerhouses and
destroyers with
skills derived
from many
Martial Arts
throughout the
world, the video
shows the
techniques at
full speed,
close up and
excitingly, in
bone-shattering
slow motion.
All the feats

Guinness Book of
Records holders.
