Fred Mastro | Mastro Defence System | MDS | LIVE BLADE DEMO

[@TehMasterSword]

Props to the guy taking hits for us

[@jakes9062]

right I always feel bad for him

[@MadSativa]

u mean the guy with the knife on his neck right

[@CobbyLouis]

Jess Osborn twenty five percent 😂😂😂

[@SteveShivik]

I was literally about to say I was cringing every time for that dude.

[@mikha007]

steveshivik so was he lol

[@patherrmann3009]

5:31 "The day Doug decided it was time for new friends."

[@MrMZaccone]

You can say anything you want about it but that was putting Doug Marcaida's life in jeopardy.

[@johnnywishbone932]

jeopardy and dead are like a strong sunset or fluffy little trees! Doug is getting old anyways and the tavern hunnies dig a man with scars.

[@joshuaheartnet762]

any miscalculation and doug's throat would become blood fountain

[@MrMZaccone]

***** Not like that it's not.

[@johnnywishbone932]

Alex Trebek is on Jeopardy!

[@ashleystroebel1018]

@@johnnywishbone932 It could Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel I know my comment is 6 years late haha

[@MrTornado7]

You can see Doug going out on the limb of trust. The little smirk on his face afterwards was like "typical Mastro". But seriously live blade stuff like that is so far into the realm of trust requirement that it's almost entirely inappropriate. You know those guys really know each other well and trust each other up to their eyes to be doing stuff like that.

[@FunkerTactical]

Smartest comment I've read so far.

[@jamesbridges7750]

Beat me to it! His face was great!

[@mosheciwal2404]

These guys are absolute masters of their craft. It all comes down to training and practice. And a lot of it. You are right though. I have never seen anything that comes close to this demonstration.

[@03walshy11]

Masters or not - there lies a degree - and a large degree of fuck up. You're bullshitting yourself if you think that some one would "let" this happen. I trusted a good deal of men shooting in close proximity to me... would I do it for a stupid fucking video? No. VODA does that shit.

[@dreamtorealitywithmarkanth181]

lol that man teaching the technique is belong to the fake martial artist he can not do that in highly trained person dough macaida is better that him

[@sithyarael6807]

Good Job Doug standing there for this!! Mastro and Doug are badasses!! Props to the guy getting beat up for this demo!!

[@prettyflyforafilipin]

Kuya marcada is awesome. Not just for his fearlessness, but the humility he has for being the "damsel in distress". Many egotistical instructors always have the need feel to be in spotlight. Inspiring kuya!

[@RealitySurvival]

Lol. The look on Doug's face when he pulls out the knife... Priceless!

[@MrBluemanworld]

Fk the camera I wouldn’t stand there

[@mykalbee]

Damn bro you were getting f..ked up. Thanks for takin one or six for the team.

[@333ridge]

I never cease to be impressed. Trust amongst friends is notable here.

[@ADHD_Samurai]

with all of the people making waves about the live blade. To be honest, it's all talk until the live blade is in use. It's at that moment that you realize what Fred is doing works. Doug is an FMA Guru and this sort of thing is not unusual in that world. Fred is insanely one of the best and has made me rethink knife fighting and defense.

[@stank54]

Merci Fred pour la démo simple et efficace ! En plus avec ton accent je comprends tout ! Tu es mon idole !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@HandsomeLongshanks]

I love these videos. From a guy who has tested his skills on the streets makes this so much more worthwhile to watch.

[@HandsomeLongshanks]

Disclaimer, i know these videos do not constitute training in anyway shape or form and just show what can be accomplished with rigorous training under supervision of trained professionals.

[@mastercipher5585]

shouts to the man who put this together.....I respect the realness to get his point across. it caught me off guard when mastro put the life of his friend in the hand of another man with a live blade but I needed that to see the reality of a street fight amazing thanx again

[@thechad2553]

To the guy taking the hits and coming back for more, just so that we can a realistic demonstration of these techniques... Bravo and thank you

[@robdeskrd]

Mastro you madman, you are a frickin genius! I love watching your videos

[@yasinyetkin]

Doug marcaida's impressions are just perfect :D

[@Mehmetyldrm_]

Oooo Turk :D

[@somethingtrulyhorrifying]

The way the body reacts differently to being hit in different places is so cool, like pressing buttons on a machine.

[@danielj1642]

I don't think the comedy is intended but these shots this guy takes are funny. Respect.

[@toddgeorge5538]

GOTTA COMMENT, THESE TWO GUYS ARE OUTSTANDING. FANTASTIC WEB SITE.

[@truebornsonofliberty554]

GN- mad respect for the authentic demo. Doug and Fred are the real deals. That took balls.

[@gabrielp.ariton433]

Thanks a lot for this great Demonstration, Mr.Fred Mastro, and Mr. Guru Doug Marcaida, Our Body, has a lot of painful points, the Point is to Knowhow of the Body Mechanical ! Chapeau once again, for the " Street Reality ". Gabriel from Switzerland !

[@junevon1738]

Very much welcomeDoug Marcaida so many tinme Sir!! Welcome! Good to see you again!

[@pauljennings7876]

I rarely comment on youtube stuff but i just had to pop in and say I really like what i am seeing from mastro self defense .... solid

[@delvesdg]

The element that is missing is intention. A person attacking you with intent on cutting your throat, or doing any other bodily harm, is very different from two guys doing a demonstration.

[@docshearon1]

definitely the bomb... used to not be able to buy this...you learned at great expense...much pain and suffering along the way. when you find yourself in the shit and have this down ... victory. thanks for empowering others

[@pmstheokoles1215]

5:28 " take the knife, brother!" 🤣 awesome!

[@samogufonianrockstar7510]

Im from durban south africa Fred ..i wudv loved to be in your class everyday Your system is going to topple many other techniques if not already ..wishing u success and love 👍👌

[@jkdpfs62]

I must agree with you Joshua but what Mastro shows here is beyond the level of trust and goes far into what is "ultimate reality" in these life and death situations. Yes a lot of us do train in the self perfection aspect of martial arts but we have to face the reality and go into self preservation because life may depend on it. In as far as the participants I have nothing but respect for Mastro and Doug and Beardless GN for bringing this to light. Thank you.

[@kjackson3320]

Doug Marcaida and Fred Mastro are simply great. Pure Gospel comes out of their teeth, no lying. And then we got all the rookie pigme self defense instructors on Tube.

[@indianprepper2478]

I like a face reaction Of Doug when he pull a real knife .

[@darthstafford]

THIS! Powerful message here. Thanks for taking that beating for the team! Thanks to Doug for risking his neck. Thanks to Mastro for the teaser! Great video guys!

[@CourtJester1960]

I have to say, I laughed. I laughed because 35ys ago I learned some of the same type of lessons. You'll never forget.

[@ratagris21]

Great video and instruction and the master has taught the lesson and we have learned it.

[@MadMaxJuggernaut]

Inb4 people say that this wouldn't work in real life and everything in the UFC is better but won't understand that this is for VIP and protective detail situation.

[@Octopussyist]

I just love the look on Doug Marcaiodo's face during that whole session.

[@MrBluemanworld]

He knew the guy was crazy

[@loneninja]

Nice work. Real martial arts training involves pain. Giving pain, receiving pain and dealing with pain. Anything else is not combat oriented and is okay for kids and sport arts only. We only use dulled metal blades but never live blades. I don't think that was his risk to take. But my hats to all three of them!

[@peters303]

Never volunteer to be the attacker for Fred 😯 Extremely impressed 💪🏼🇨🇵

[@jackiephi6310]

I even love the setting that you’re in thank you dude and of course I love you Fred

[@HermCore]

Great video...love learning new def. techniques from this channel. BTW, big thank u to this guy who took all these hits so we can learn how to be a lil more effective when it comes to defense.

[@chanceogden]

Hey way to take a hit! Those nerve strikes are no joke!

[@nelson0922]

GN ,now the community can gain some great insight into what you are doing, this serves human kind ,to defend is the ultimate .any one can attack ,but this helps ,this is each one ,teach one ,great work in accepting the pain ,Ous

[@thomasbudi2000]

GN, dear Lord you are brave. Man those moves are painful! God bless brother for taking the pain so we can see the real deal martial art in action.

[@ah64Dcoming4U]

Excellent demonstration, thanks for taking a beating for us!

[@based-24]

"How much you love your wife?" Fred Mastro: "10 percent" 😂

[@tyleraustin33]

I like his striking style, very relaxed and powerful.

[@TaintMeat68]

GREAT instructional content as always.

[@jamesduval7296]

killer instruction and the simplicity is amazing

[@germanafrica1]

, Amazing! Thanks for sharing this video 😊

[@christobe]

I keep learning more and more from the video you guys produce.

[@SonOfMoses7]

At the end of the video I was left in awe, very good.

[@marshalleng1933]

That dead leg is intense. Some one did that to me before as a joke and I went straight down, zero stumble, zero words, and zero leg! People walking past me laying on the grown nearly in tears! I still to this day don't know who did it...

[@adamsroka7302]

This works because of basic physiology. If I am standing close enough to hit you without moving my feet, and I don't telegraph, then you do not have time to recognize the attack and do anything about it before I hit you. The clock starts when the attacker's motion begins. The defender's nervous system has a bunch of work to do before he can respond by beginning his own motion. That's why nearly all defense depends either on maintaining distance or binding/trapping/grappling as you close.

[@nickc8819]

Outstanding techniques, Excellent video. Keep up the good work.

[@skateusa]

I love this stuff because I do self with people (training) and I accept the pain of the technique because that is how they know that it's been applied correctly. You need to know how the body responds to technique the way you apply to know if it's a viable technique for you. Not all tech works for all people. I love this guy's stuff.

[@juliodc1231]

I would love to come to one of his classes, the real knife was scetchy but goes to prove this really works and that's what will save your life or someone else's.

[@valentinobeniamino]

Dear all, did you ever find a way to know what happens when you do things to others? Fred teach also that you know exactly the pain you are inflincting to others and how to deal with the force. With a good training, risk is decreasing and trust arise. That's why Doug have no fears, and the other guy do the job realisticly. If you train only with sticks, will you have the same reflexs on the streets? Fred is teaching for decades and all the time searching for all of us to improve techniques, find shortcuts, and delivers for free sometimes like here on this particular video the results where he achieves something. Thanks Fred. If there 's a price to pay, a little pain of somebody like the hat guy it's very cheap to get a chance to survive in difficult situation.

[@nicoreed3600]

I like how this video shows the actual reaction of an opponent or assailant instead of the average "He would probably react in this manner" because I don't want to put my life or the life of a friend of mine in the hands of a probability.

[@iPyroNigma]

I love how Doug is like, of course it's the knife to my throat, get it over with already.

[@truebornsonofliberty554]

No. I have no doubt Doug was thinking, 'wtf'. As good as they are, that was risky. Not denigrating the demo. Just recognizing reality.

[@timbrwolf2238]

Wow. Great job by Doug and attacker on this one...amazing to watch. Entertaining alos.

[@lapuzza1455]

I need more of this and the Muay Boran!

[@nathandelmen2552]

Tnx for the video. I also martial artist and i apreciate the techniques, keep on making videos pls.

[@Drstephenstokes]

Reminds me so much of the old SCARS program but much much more refined.

[@jimlee6202]

Amazing. Going to feel those for a while.

[@danarief]

There is something special with Mastro, every little move that he did looks solid and seems to hurts like hell.

[@johndonovan5521]

when tge real knife comes out Dougs like "WTF"

[@BTobias84]

Did you see his eyes when the blade was pushed on his neck at 5:25.....laughed so hard.

[@TwitKh]

lol at dougs comical little smart assed smirks while his mate is copping all the hurt XD i love doug XD

[@DANALDTRAMP]

Me on the ground after Funker Tactical blows my mind: "25%. Only 25%."

[@elliottmazur143]

Great to watch. Learning from these instructors would be amazing. And painful. I'd find it hard to remember anything if I keep getting smacked in the base of the skull.

[@caliaska4670]

GN taking it for the team! Hope your ok now.

[@shananmifsud3731]

Hi from Australia. I'm very impressed by the way you explain how to react to each situation. Double thumbs up. P.s. I am wishing so much that you would make it to Sydney Australia to demonstrate and educate this necessary skill set. Regards Shanan mifsud

[@passivesolar6194]

These guys are phenomenal!

[@jjones7837]

5:30 That moment your friends put your life in jeopardy for youtube. Holy fk. I also ended up in the ER doing live blade demo....after having done it hundreds of practice rounds.

[@joesashiify]

Took it like a champ, good job.👍 Best video I've seen so far, I learned alot. Thank you.

[@AdmiralSalt1]

Can we see 100% on something like a punching bag? 25% looked crazy, imagine 100

[@tduke1226]

What knife was that?

[@FunkerTactical]

Bastinelli Knives - The Red Folder

[@tduke1226]

Thanks for the reply! Great video as always. Loving the content with these two

[@3rdeye7thdimension]

[@GunCollector007]

[@marcusma4044]

[@raydon14ify]

See that's what I like about Fred. He keeps it real

[@joshuahogsett4961]

GN, you're a bad ass bro! Respect.

[@martialfit1679]

awesome.. Great. Demonstration..👍👍👍👍👌

[@wolfstein7782]

We love that kind of practice here in the philippines. Although we're not that good in a competitive martial arts such as taekwondo and mma.

[@edwardhoffman6416]

Amazing stuff ,,,,,ever come to Texas

[@mrm9858]

Simple but very effective.

[@rtc1964rc]

10%...100% pain!!..great vid!!

[@willyoung164]

[@Dartejo]

2:55 "oh fuck, Fred", this made my day.

[@bobwampler3387]

That was totally awesome. I hope it didn't hurt long.😳

[@syedasad8301]

I know how that knee feels very painfull but this is very good explained

[@adrianreyno1]

I feel sorry for the guy taking the hits. Great demo. Those techniques are awsome. I would definitely take some classes if their were in the Inland Empire. Some where near Rancho Cucamonga.

[@exodustwelve2044]

above amazing, just masterful

[@giovannidefrancesco3122]

wow fantastic! I'd like to know what martial art it is based on

[@jonathancurbis8169]

When are you guys coming to Chicago????

[@MrBluemanworld]

I agree with this training sometimes you have to feel and know how to strike and administer pain or you won’t be able to do it for real

[@iacomuslycanthropus7466]

Best Uke ever. Thanks boss. Thanks to you other guys too, I guess, whatever. ;) lol

[@hsehovic63]

anybody know the name and type of wristwatch doug marcaida is wearing?

[@jefftaylor1983]

I love Doug's little look of like really you gonna do him like that why man why you gotta do him this dirty
