I am not new to the public forum though this is my first post on "Martial Arts".
I don't know if I sound naive with this question here but I wonder if anyone else saw the cable show Ripleys with the segment showing where they show martial artists taking direct blows to the groin and throat. How can they do this without injury? Is this some sort of trick? If the scrotum is above the pelvic bone I guess the blow would be deflected from the sensitive area. But the blows to the Adams apple boggle my mind. How can one prevent the cartilage in the neck from being crushed?
What is the method of this? Anyone know?
