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. | Actually, it has been proven medically, that a temple strike isnt as deadly as it had been claimed.
And, one can suffer any of these strikes even by non-human objects.
Talk bad? Hmmmn, If look back to many posts/threads on this subject, many martial artists with a sense of realism cannot fully accept Dim Mak.
