A great vid that demonstrates how fast and how much power is generated from martial arts kicks... 2300 pounds (over one ton) of force delivered at over 130 mph (210 Kms/hour).  MuyThai, Caiporeira, Karate and Taekwondo are featured...  I would have loved to have seen my Sensei hammering his amazing side kick into the heavy bag - the force he generates in the dojo is equally amazing!
