That is a powerful PSI reading no matter what anyone says. That is some SERIOUS force being delivered. I would love to see a lot more of these guys....they need their own TV show!
The poster below is right. The "guy" is his brother and breaking partner. He helped set up the blocks so they break correctly and his brother doesn't get hurt. He holds the stack steady until contact is made. Then he dives out of the way so he doesn't get injured. The brother can break the same stack just as easily.
This is amazing, my football and lifting coach always told me not to scream during lifts because it uses additional energy. Guess I'll have to start working on yelling!
To be fair he sounded like he started siking himself out and doubting himself when he was told he cant scream. If he didnt think he could do it 100% thats gonna affect him too
but if you notice the stand on which the tiles are being held breaks, the transfer of energy just passes through the last tile into the stand. There is enough force to break that tile
Screaming before taking off really helps me, and screaming when I'm starting to slow down helps me regain my speed. Screaming while at peak acceleration though just feels like a really nice way to run out of air.
Sean Yue if you run the 100m sprint competitively it’s an an aerobic activity. You could hold your breath the whole run and still get the same time. If you’re not used to it of course you’ll have to breath to get a better time
In both attemps, the last one didn't break. Watch slo-mo at 2:55. The stand breaks, then everything crumble. During the scream attempt, the stands is also smaller, about half large. I hate when they screw up tests, but still conclude with the results they were expecting.
@HarrisonEdmonds but he breaks the two cynder blocks under the load cells on either side. it probably broke on impact with the ground, but I agree it wasnt a clean break
The guy standing near the bricks ran away the first time, but stayed the second time. Maybe he felt the aggression with the scream?? It was interesting, thanks
First break he screams after or at contact, and secondly... even if screaming forces OXYGENated blood to the extremities, explosive force is almost entirely anaerobic i.e. without OXYGEN. I agree, we need to see more studies on that and I'd be interested to see the results.
And the colums (on wich blocks are) looks larger in the second try (when he didn't scream) which would explain why in the first try the blocks fells and not in the second.
I watched the one with Jerry Porter first, and he could had messed up someone a lot worse than how nature intended, if nature is not there to protect that person.
That's because he actually shattered the concrete block holding the whole stack up. If the concrete blocks were on their sides, and not holding the stack vertically, it would not have shattered and the the last brick would have broken in half. Also if you look at the rubble after the 1st attempt, there isn't a brick that is intact.
okay so maybe its not a perfect science experiment, but ask anyone who plays a physical sport: screaming helps. I played football in high school, every time I hit someone or went to hit someone I grunted, and so did the players who ran into me or hit me. Also when I'm lifting heavy and I need to get that last rep I grunt. I can't explain and this video may not be scientifically correct but screaming/grunting helps. I don't know how or why, but your the scientist so you figure it out
The force would have been the same if the first had an 8 in block. You had the money for all those fancy meters, but you cant get stacking blocks right?
Lies? it broke the fucking support blocks... the second time without screaming didn't... PS: the last one broke after it hit the ground because of the weight/pressure. Learn before calling it fake.
In the first one, he screamed after everything shattered. I think on the second one, he may have also been more nervous, contributing to the poorer performance.
i find screaming helps a lot, it gives you that extra edge. i also think it raises the adrenaline level sending more engegy thoughout your body...just my guessin
not sure about paul but if you look them up it does say that they are both martial arts experts. It also says for craig (paul's brother) on the "pumphrey brothers" facebook page that he studied a mixture of "jiu-jitsu, Pankration, and a complete breaking system which he created called Eclectics"
nickninja27 I’m an eclectic practitioner under Craig. He’s the absolute real deal. He’s done a lot of awesome things for the sport of fighting. He’s also insanely strong.
This test was not efficient because of the fact he did no scream after he did the scream, so maybe if he did the scream second it would have been only 1500 lbs force, with the scream also, when they say the scream gets the heart pumping faster he screams like right when he hits so one extra pump is going to help? No
ya but you can see at the end the 2 support pillar brick broke cause of his excessive force, the last brick didnt take the impact cause they got broken
they could because of their strength, but all their breaking techniques they demonstrate will definitely be countered to the extreme. (they're too slow)
Their math was off. They concluded that the scream generated about 25% more force. It should have been approx 33% more force for the scream attempt compared to no scream. Instead, they could have said that non-scream attempt generated 25% less force -- that would have been a true statement. Would like to have seen data for 6 attempts, 3 w/screaming and 3 w/o screaming.
Craig Pumphrey is a World Pankration Champion and an ADCC fighter "To Slow"....tell that to the guy who got his ribs and arm broke by Craig in Greece at the Worlds!!!
"F=(mv^2)/2 ! you need fourtimes the force to..." Some scientist you are by giving us the formula of kinetic energy and calling it force. Moreover, they're talking about power increase, which is energy over time. They really mean force, not power. And I didn't watch the whole video, so I'm not sure if they tested this but: as far as I see, they test difference between not breathing at all and screaming. I would have been more interested in difference of screaming and only exhaling.
Well, considering they only had one test subject this experient will never be deemed legit. But, when I scream my arousal increases, which increases my heart rate, but this may be highly individual and not for all. It might also be counter-productive for other sports, like golf. No comment on their 25 percent increase, lol.
That is a powerful PSI reading no matter what anyone says. That is some SERIOUS force being delivered. I would love to see a lot more of these guys....they need their own TV show!
Screaming definitely increases performance in the bedroom too...
The poster below is right. The "guy" is his brother and breaking partner. He helped set up the blocks so they break correctly and his brother doesn't get hurt. He holds the stack steady until contact is made. Then he dives out of the way so he doesn't get injured. The brother can break the same stack just as easily.
The Demolition Paul Phoenix
Yo, when he fell, I lost it lololol.
This is amazing, my football and lifting coach always told me not to scream during lifts because it uses additional energy. Guess I'll have to start working on yelling!
Paul Pumphrey is the man!!! The Pumphrey Brothers need their own series!!!
2:22
his yell was so strong that he made the old man roll
To be fair he sounded like he started siking himself out and doubting himself when he was told he cant scream. If he didnt think he could do it 100% thats gonna affect him too
love how he just does a ninja roll after the break hahaha
but if you notice the stand on which the tiles are being held breaks, the transfer of energy just passes through the last tile into the stand. There is enough force to break that tile
does that mean while screaming while doin a 100m sprint helps you to run faster?
That would look insane
You would run out of oxygen lol
No. To sprint properly you need to have controled breathing. Also tensing your muscles while sprinting would just make you slower.
Screaming before taking off really helps me, and screaming when I'm starting to slow down helps me regain my speed.
Screaming while at peak acceleration though just feels like a really nice way to run out of air.
Sean Yue if you run the 100m sprint competitively it’s an an aerobic activity. You could hold your breath the whole run and still get the same time. If you’re not used to it of course you’ll have to breath to get a better time
I scream when I fart been known to flush out all the oxygen in a room
They don't just break things, they tear them apart. So, he doesn't get as tired as most folks would. The brothers are in excellent condition.
this is madness!
THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
=P
regardless of whether it's psychological or not, what matters is the blocks were broken
"Its gonna hit back, and i dont appreciate that" lmfao
In both attemps, the last one didn't break.
Watch slo-mo at 2:55. The stand breaks, then everything crumble.
During the scream attempt, the stands is also smaller, about half large.
I hate when they screw up tests, but still conclude with the results they were expecting.
@HarrisonEdmonds but he breaks the two cynder blocks under the load cells on either side. it probably broke on impact with the ground, but I agree it wasnt a clean break
the reason why he didnt get the force thrown back to him is because the two bricks that the stack was standing on got broken too
The guy standing near the bricks ran away the first time, but stayed the second time. Maybe he felt the aggression with the scream??
It was interesting, thanks
everyone knows screamin helps
It tighens your abs, clears your mind, physches you up.
We grunt when we lift heavy weight involuntarily as it helps.
But what's really impressive though is that he broke the cinderblocks supporting the stack instead.
Imagine Marshawn Lynch screaming that would be unstoppable man
Without the spacers between the bricks, he wouldn't be able to break them, with or without screaming.
That's the real trick to breaking.
First break he screams after or at contact, and secondly... even if screaming forces OXYGENated blood to the extremities, explosive force is almost entirely anaerobic i.e. without OXYGEN. I agree, we need to see more studies on that and I'd be interested to see the results.
And the colums (on wich blocks are) looks larger in the second try (when he didn't scream) which would explain why in the first try the blocks fells and not in the second.
I watched the one with Jerry Porter first, and he could had messed up someone a lot worse than how nature intended, if nature is not there to protect that person.
@mcrenren he did break the two supporting columns under the load sensors though.
That's because he actually shattered the concrete block holding the whole stack up. If the concrete blocks were on their sides, and not holding the stack vertically, it would not have shattered and the the last brick would have broken in half. Also if you look at the rubble after the 1st attempt, there isn't a brick that is intact.
In addition to your point, who would watch these scientists go through ten or twelve trials, at the risk of breaking his forearms in half...
okay so maybe its not a perfect science experiment, but ask anyone who plays a physical sport: screaming helps. I played football in high school, every time I hit someone or went to hit someone I grunted, and so did the players who ran into me or hit me.

Screaming exerts all your energy and force ;)
If youve never screamed and tried to lift your heaviest, and still try to say that it doesnt help. PLEASE, TAKE A SEAT!
3:07 LAST BRICK DIDNT BREAK. LIES!
Lies? it broke the fucking support blocks... the second time without screaming didn't...
PS: the last one broke after it hit the ground because of the weight/pressure. Learn before calling it fake.
it didn't break at first bc the support broke before it could
Paul uses roar. Sp attack raises sharply
In the first one, he screamed after everything shattered. I think on the second one, he may have also been more nervous, contributing to the poorer performance.
i find screaming helps a lot, it gives you that extra edge. i also think it raises the adrenaline level sending more engegy thoughout your body...just my guessin
this is corn fed bred
Actually.....the last brick remained intact in both breaks.
not sure about paul but if you look them up it does say that they are both martial arts experts. It also says for craig (paul's brother) on the "pumphrey brothers" facebook page that he studied a mixture of "jiu-jitsu, Pankration, and a complete breaking system which he created called Eclectics"

No
He actually broke the brick that was holding all the other ones up one the first one.
possible, but its a tv show. who knows if they did proper controls, etc.
Paul is a beast!!!
ya but you can see at the end the 2 support pillar brick broke cause of his excessive force, the last brick didnt take the impact cause they got broken
Dude looks like Mimzy from south park
Mimzyyyyy! "Sorry boss'
those guys are monsters...they can destory ANYTHING.
actually the scream is through to after the crush
not the entire stack on the first one the last one did not break look at the crack in slo mo
they could because of their strength, but all their breaking techniques they demonstrate will definitely be countered to the extreme. (they're too slow)
whenever someone asks if i'm giving 110% i'm just going to fucking scream at them.
Their math was off. They concluded that the scream generated about 25% more force. It should have been approx 33% more force for the scream attempt compared to no scream. Instead, they could have said that non-scream attempt generated 25% less force -- that would have been a true statement.
Would like to have seen data for 6 attempts, 3 w/screaming and 3 w/o screaming.
but he broke the one beneath it. Therefore there wont be any force that will travel back
as i see it is was the sound waves the break the last brick :P
the last didnt break in the first atempt eather
i wonder what he could break with his dangle?
@mcrenren but i recon it would of if the suport things didnt break aswell
its not the yelling its the breathing, if u let go of your breath as u hit will be harder then holding your breath
pauls brother craig is my jiu jitsu coach
can you imagine when he screams and did'nt break all the bricks? That would be very embarrasing. o.o
ONLY 1500 pounds of force?!?!?
ya i think he kinda tripped a bit to
i think screaming does just what paul says: help him let go of everything therefor improving coordination
Craig Pumphrey is a World Pankration Champion and an ADCC fighter "To Slow"....tell that to the guy who got his ribs and arm broke by Craig in Greece at the Worlds!!!
goku approves this!
screaming flushes everything out. i m ready to destroy.........epic!
2:21 Barell roooll!
6:10 too sick rofl..WARRR YEH Pumphrey rox y0
i noticed that aswell
i grunt when im gettin ready to get a rebound, it just freaks the guys ut and they get out the way =^) whatever seems to work
He did it just didn't finish showing what happened because it was in slow motion look at the ground for 2:22
mmmmh... is it me or on the first try (when he screamed) he didn't broke the last block?
that is why we shot putters scream :)
it dnt show the same experiment tho
he screams AFTER the crush
exactly!
One didnt manage to break the last concrete haha
haha...he owned the guy at 2:22
i really think it's just psychological thinking
But the supports were thinner!
its different angles
"F=(mv^2)/2 ! you need fourtimes the force to..."
Some scientist you are by giving us the formula of kinetic energy and calling it force.

Good eye.
well, guess he's a screamer. haha. thats pretty cool though, wonder if that'll work running :D
Why do they always double the force readings lol like 1000 pounds of force is not impressive enough
Well, considering they only had one test subject this experient will never be deemed legit. But, when I scream my arousal increases, which increases my heart rate, but this may be highly individual and not for all. It might also be counter-productive for other sports, like golf.
No comment on their 25 percent increase, lol.
the one at the bottom didn't break
he is right it didnt break
thumbs up if you think that was a little bit over reacting at 4:22 ?
He should have started by not screaming because he use a lot of energy in the first break
NINJA TIME! lol ;)
While he was screaming he din't brome the last 1 to
his first break the bottom brick didnt break lol it prolly broke wen it hit the ground
the first one didnt break
This is not a statistically significant test. Variables are not properly controlled, and multiple trials would have to be conducted.
But the pillars broke
33% not 25, jeese
4:12 If any normal human try to do this..Broke both forearms easily
