I just watched the clip posted with growing dismay as it progressed.
Why on earth did you provide the link Wayne? What has any of the scrap we see got to do with aikido. I see that it is the open discussion forum, but you have titled it irimi and kokyunage for real.
All I saw was domestic violence being filmed by a moron, ( why didn't he put the camera down and break up the fight? ) anyone that laughs while someone is getting hurt IMHO is contemptable.
is this what passes for 'entertainment' now, real people in bad situations being filmed by fools and watched by the rest?
As you can tell, I'm not impressed, and what is to be discussed apart from my reaction to it?
Highly uncool
