    To all the people that think this is bullshit, you're probably right but i believe that in a hand to hand combat situation (which never goes as planned, its not a dance routine) these technics serve as solid, reliable foundations to get you out of that situation. After all the British have been doing this for years...

      Yes some of it was good others were bs prime example the leaping choke where he put his legs on the guys shoulders and choked him that was very set up and is highley unlikely and not worth the effort in a real combat scenario.

      Remember that not only is this choreographed, it's the Royal Marines hand to hand "display team" - meaning they're going to have a routine including over elaborate dramatic WWE stuff for the purpose of wowing to recruit people. You can bet they don't teach a lot of the stuff we see here.....

      @guywilmet2090 6 лет назад +3

      what use is grappling ,armbars etc..when you're falling down on the concrete and your enemy's buddy is kicking your head in pretending it's a football...all this grappling stuff just isn't realistic SD wise whatever BJJ,MMA and other JJ fans may pretend running around in their loose dogi's.SD is also hitting someone in the balls,throat etc...biting,eyegouging ,....which can be simulated under stress conditions otherwise it's just BS.I've done TMA for years and it's only when I took a class of Krav Maga that I realised I was wasting my time...TMA and MMA can teach you some techniques,conditioning and discipline but when It comes to SD it's useless due to the fact that training in dojo's,in your shorts,dogi's,boxing or fighting in rings/octagon is totally different than fighting for your life in the real world under stress.

      That knife defence at 1:14 has a success rate of about 5% -almost guaranteed to get the defender killed. Never attempt to catch the knife hand in motion. Probability of success is way too low.

    Much respect to the Royal Marines.
    This video however is embarrassing. I completely understand the difference between a demo and sparring not to mention the reality of combat but a lot of the techniques in this video are old-school showy flashy garbage. First of all throw some kit on. 40-70lbs of armour and ammo will eliminate the jumping flying moves. Second lets see some more Kali, Thai, Silat and techniques that the rest of the world's Armys are using (there might have been a little here and there ill admit). There is a reason the world's security forces (Police and Military) have all independently gravitated towards a similar approach to edged and impact weapon training.

      There were a couple of quite good and feasible moves in there against an unsuspecting opponent (notice for instance the technique used to get close and under the gun) - sometimes in those situations all you need is a mental process/approach to start your thinking process as in any plan is better than no plan.

      Not at all Jay Jay. I did Tae Kwon Do for 16yrs. I stopped for 5yrs. One night i got into trouble and my training just appeared and saved me. It just happened without me even thinking about it.

      This (at least loosely) choreographed but the moves work, hundreds of years say so and we wouldn't train our finest with impractical shit. If there was no point in it they wouldn't waste time and money teaching it.
