I've watched a few demonstrations actually, it was some impressive stuff. I'm not saying though, that he literally can't be moved by any means. I'm just talking about getting 5 guys to try and push him to make him take one step from his spot, which they couldn't.

That's cool you're into mixed martial arts btw, I was really into Judo and Aikido myself before I messed up my spine and had to quit. Which martial arts do you specialize in?

Standing on a finger would be a combination of technique, strength, practise and perseverance. If this is what you mean by "the mind can become more powerful" then yes, I subscribe to that theory. I don't subscribe to a theory that would have someone do the physically impossible. If someone trained their entire life to fly by flapping their arms, they'd have to make some drastic physical modifications to themselves and develop MAD endurance to pull it off. It wouldn't be "just" the thought that's doing it, it's all the training they put in.

Yep, you pretty much understand what I mean now. Indeed nobody can train hard and long enough and jump 100 feet into the air, or in your example flap their arms to fly. What I'm talking about is accomplishing normal human feats, to far abnormal degrees. Do you ever watch Chris Angel on Mindfreak? He does some of the physical stuff I'm talking about, like him being a 160 lb man picking up that taxi, or having a truck run over him.... lol, I'm not sure how he walked down the side of that building since he stepped off it and walked away.



BTW, why did somebody give me bad rep on my first post with a comment of "good post":wtf:
