Palm Strike!

April 18th, 2007 by mike d. in KungFu

currently eating: apple

I got palm struck in the face last night at kung fu. It didn’t hurt so much as completely stun me. My attacker actually stepped forward and grabbed my arms to prevent me from toppling over.

How strange it is getting palm struck in the face.

We were doing an exercise where I would jab at my opponent. He would block and then palm strike in the direction of my face. Except, he didn’t stop in time and plowed into my nose.

I was certain that it broke. But, a few minutes and nose blows later I was back in business.

It was a really strange experience though. Really strange.

In other news, check out this hilarious picture of how a backhoe can ruin your day.

Fantastic!

Thanks Jes Saint!

If you have plans on becoming a crime fighting ninja superhero, you better get used to getting hit the the face.

If I’m a good enough crime fighting ninja superhero, I would argue that getting punched in the face will be unnecessary.

UPDATE: 24 hours later, my nose still hurts.

Did you get little stars and tweeting birds circling around your head? If so you might actually be a character in a Tom & Jerry cartoon.
