Dim Mak isn't the art of "DEADLY POKING". Let's say you rock your opponent with a nice hook or jab to the jaw. He slumps, or stumbles, and instead of throwing wild punches at his head, many of which will miss, you take a wallop at his kidneys or his liver, which doubles him up, then you finger thrust up under the jaw and follow it up with a strike to hte temple.

Now, if you think Dim Mak is walking up to someone and tapping them on the shoulder with a Vulcan Neck Pinch, it shows how little you know. You, not the TMA community, are caught up in some "fantasy" version of TMA. IN other words, don't talk bad about arts you know nothing about, novice.
