Fred Mastro | Mastro Defence System | Non-Lethal Compliance

[@victordasilva5255]

I'm going to try this with the old ladies at the park . I have to start with them to see if it works before I try with drunk dudes

[@Nicurru]

Yes start with something easy. You can always work your way up.

[@randyclark8774]

A laugh from the past 4yrs ago. Hilarious comment!

[@essamgossiel6377]

You have to bear this in mind, if you're gonna test yourself against innocent people who does nothing to you, then you'll be classed as a bully. The only time you need to test yourself is if you are being attacked innocently and you've got nowhere to escape, other than leave people in peace, and then think about the consequences, YOU COULD GET YOURSELF IN LOTS OF TROUBLE. It's people like that who ends being kicked out of dojos.

[@mblake0420]

looks like assault and battery to me.

[@ajwilson313]

👍💯. This is not training.

[@mblake0420]

Doesn't look like the drunk disorderly guy is much of a threat on a bench lol

[@mblake0420]

***** don't arrest him

[@aaronireland138]

What is this was a drunk guy who either crashed your party, or outstayed his welcome in your house? Possibly threaten to mess anyone up who tries to make him leave?

[@aaronireland138]

+Summer Kawasaki Actually I'm consisting an actual situation that I have found myself in. Simply trying to drag them out resulting a physical altercation, a broken nose and broken furniture. Utilising such a pain compliance technique could have seen the situation brought under control a lot quicker, with less injuries on the both of us.

[@tevinlim9123]

awesome! now I know how to get rid of an unwanted guest out of my house

[@ninjim3]

This is real. Mr. Mastro is definitely good. I've trained for over 20 years in EP, pain compliance, chokes, etc and hold a 4th Dan in Japanese Koryu; It's obvious Mastro knows what he's doing. I've used most of what he just did in that video- and it works. Try a big strong guy, drunk or not, deciding he's sitting in your club or your bar, or your house and refusing to move, or being a messy, bullying, drunk dum dum that's threatening people you love. He will move with this. The Dalai Lama, and countless others haven't hired Mastro because he's ineffective. Easy to sit behind a keyboard, glowing like Golum and troll. You'd soil yourself if you were nose to nose with this guy. Keep going Mastro and Funker; those of us who've been around, know it works, and love your stuff.

[@ricoquad5977]

Its also easy to sit behind a keyboard and make people believe your something your not!

[@Bubble23428]

Ik one of his technique that works and its the throat strike but the rest is bs

[@agcb8969]

Thanks for sharing. Great to the point video, without all the Bla Bla Bla context so the kids understand. Another technique added to the options catalogue. It is good to know about preemptively ways of control and avoid a potential physical conflict. The surprise factor is the Key here. Excellent. Thks again.

[@hrosemd]

Poor bastard.

[@felamor1982]

LOL that punch hurt... sad BJ

[@narayantx]

Brutally effective when the situation warrants it. Perhaps if more LEOs had these types of techniqques in their toolbox, questionable shootings would occur less often. They would be more confident and less likely to escalate to deadly force. Be Well

[@dandeve]

Whenever you are in a training environment, YOU MUST RESPECT THE TAP! Anyone that continues a technique after a tap is an A-Hole and should be allowed to participate. Period!

[@wowKyl3]

No one in the street "respects the tap", more than likely they will keep going through with hurting you. Being put through that pain shows you just how serious real situations are. It trains the psychology to put you in a state of vulnerability in order to prioritize awareness over pain. I couldn't believe how many bitch ass dude are on here talking about he needs to let you up immediately. He knows what he's doing. If you immediately are let up, that tells your brain not to worry. An immediate release prioritizes the expectation of no longer being attacked. It's a "reward" system that will ultimately be your downfall. You're gonna get hurt in a real fight, to expect anything less is ignorant and deadly. Pain is growth. You're gonna remember how much that shit hurts so you don't make stupid mistakes that'll get you killed. Man tf up!

[@Wgaunichaux]

I've seen a few of this guy's videos, he's pretty legit. Would a drunk disorderly person be as passive as his demo partner? Maybe, maybe not. If I was training with him though I'd be pissed about the was slow response to the tap, but it could be that as way because he's conditioned to go to the logic conclusion. Which is a vague term, but that could be to him recognizing a different term of compliance or a set of reactions.

[@ChannelSurfiing]

[@ARTO540]

[@cnknguyen]

Meh.

[@mufuliramark]

Have these techniques actually been tried on a real drunk who doesn't feel pain like a fully sober person. If you're the person who wont give up the bench to the person standing over you, for whatever reason, then I can only describe the action of the standing person as a bully. These techniques are not taught by law enforcement anywhere in the UK because they are too aggressive for the shown scenario and do not meet the of the continuum of force criteria. This is just a bully taking a bench of a guy refusing to be intimidated.

[@simonbar7665]

Hhhh Big like

[@idoall165]

Some people are meant to be punching bags. Then, they shake hands like, "Thanks for fuckin me up a little. I didn't learn anything and I'll never be able to apply these techniques, but I'm glad you beat me up continuously and was slow on breaking when I tapped."

[@btac6481]

exactly he's just a show off. there is ways to demonstrate that and cause far less discomfort

[@idoall165]

@2:30 "He can't talk. Hahaha." Or breathe.

[@TheKodiak72]

yeah, for a instructor hes slower then his grandma as releasing him.

[@ANGELSRAGE77]

+b Tac Exactly! 👍

[@KristofferEngstrom]

This so called instructor appears to enjoy hurting people, even if they are his "students" or if its for demonstration. The fact that he cant even break after the guy tapps him, only shows what kind of person he is...

[@NorthPoleGames]

Its so funny because every video Fred is so damn agressive and maybe puts a little too much power in training 😂

[@castle6660]

Not to mention the person he "demonstrates" on...is always 100% compliant. Being overly aggressive helps sell the nonsense technique as "effective." I could be blackout s***faced drunk...and I would dump this maestro guy on his dome with a hip toss...and he would do absolutely nothing about it.

[@miky9757]

2:00 bullshido starting

[@randolphcirilo4800]

Huh.. idk. I don't think I like this guy anymore. I think he's a bully.. and I think he gets off on beating people

[@theUroshman]

Yep, there's definitely a dark side to him, but, boy, is he good!

[@goldengoat1737]

I have never seen him show a technique and have the OTHER person do it to him... you know to prove how effective it is.... hmmmm

[@brianwike5397]

this is absolutely NON effective. welcome to bullshito and MCDOJO life funker.... I thought you guys wanted to help and protect people with your videos..this flase sense of security,confidence and skill will get some one killed. teaching people self defense is one thing but showing clips of attacks and bullying is in bad form. THIS IS MAKE BELIEVE you wanna be Jason Bourne

[@bryancox5235]

Note to self, do not take that mans seat.

[@theUroshman]

Hahaha!

[@michaelw7867]

OK, so you got him out of the chair. But then he ended up on the ground. What good is that? The more common way to get someone up is to simply put a wrist lock on him. This works just fine, is much simpler, and is less abusive. It also enables you to walk him wherever you need to take him.

[@dieterh.9342]

I would expect a drunk and disorderly person to be a little more disorderly to warrant offensive action like this.

[@landminehopscotch3617]

Is there any footage of Frank actually fighting someone? This guy seems great. I'd really like to see him in real fight though

[@petronela910]

@Peter Miller that's not even the thing. He does street applicable techniques, not mma. Of course if he steps into a ring, with rules against an mma fighter he won't do well.

[@wattsmichaele]

So much for all his tactics in a ring. He got whipped.:(

[@borpheusmaximus4719]

Sorry but where is the technique of attacking a guy who is sitting down?? Why does he deserve to be attacked like this? Because he talked shit? This goes against every martial art I have ever been involved with. Attacking someone in a prone position is a nono. Unless you want to be an aggressor, then why would you need this? Arent we taught to NOT to attack people who are in a weak position?? I dont comprehend this lesson.

[@billm8875]

It's more for security personnel like bouncers and such

[@borpheusmaximus4719]

Maybe my imagination is lacking but I can't see it. The whole exercise looks like attaxking soneone who is passively resisting. In which case, as a bouncer, I woukd call the police. Thats not my job. I'm just having trouble with this scenario, lol is it just me??

[@billm8875]

Ya i can see where it looks like its just bullying, but imagine its 3am, and some disorderly drunk man is sitting outside a club verbally harassing people, in that situation i can see where some of these techniques would come in handy, in my personal opinion some of the situations shown were a bit to rough, but hey you gotta do what you gotta do.

[@borpheusmaximus4719]

Bill Mahany I understand that concept but damn, it looks like fucking someone up who is innocent.

[@borpheusmaximus4719]

Bill Mahany I do see your point, btw.

[@redline870]

Damn dude how long does he have to tap before you release? I can think of some limited circumstances where this could be applied, but ease up on the dude you're demonstrating it on!

[@geekaythedj7554]

Bouncer or not, it is hard to say someone is being "disorderly" if they are just sitting! If someone is just running their mouth and you do this, it's call assault!!! Cool tactics but this is a dick move to use on a guy that is just sitting and hurting nothing more then a bouncers ego with his words

[@thethijsy]

Damm you can at least go soft on him? it's not like he's actually trying to fight back

[@michaellopez1780]

thethijsy How you train is how you're going to do it in the real world.

[@catshavesouls]

Fred doesn't know how. He's tried.

[@stephensasquatch6427]

The guy was tapping out for f*ck sake let go already. The guy was being taught how to defend and preserve himself but he was severely manhandled by his "instructor" how ironic

[@juandoe3212]

damn fred must go through training partners like toilet paper.

[@adamoneill2660]

Love to see this guy's attitude if he was being demonstrated on and the person didn't break it off when he taps, I'm pretty sure he wouldn't be as passive as these guys, what a douch

[@DigitalNeb]

This guy beats the hell out of his demonstration partners. I've seen it in a couple of these videos, and it seems more than a little unprofessional to me. What's more, I don't think this technique would be as effective against someone that actually knows how to fight. They'd come off the bench into you with the power of both legs. Then you're airborne. I mean who holds on to their chair in a fight? It doesn't make sense. Also, who lets someone loom over them like that in a confrontation? Anyway, I got lots of problems with this scenario.

[@GodsAssassin]

Thom Curry this is if the guy is drunk not if the guy is sober

[@DigitalNeb]

I'm talking about how he treats his demonstration partners.

[@DigitalNeb]

Lol! Dude, you can demonstrate techniques without torturing your demo partner.

[@GodsAssassin]

Thom Curry no pain you make no mistakes the next time. Don't volunteer thats the mistake.

[@DigitalNeb]

Training isn't a real world scenario, and advanced level sparring should be done with advanced level partners. You don't beat up some novice to look impressive on the camera. I just disagree with you completely.

[@drumm3r28]

My personal opinion: I like Fred and his tactics and specially how he is able to flow while causing a lot of discomfort. If you have ever been in a situation similar to these you know for a fact there isn't an order of action, one person might react in a violence manner, when in the contrary one could face somebody who shows a lot more compliance. In my personal experience anything regarding cutting blood flow, air flow, and soft pressure points around the neck/face area works. With that being said, there is always a need to add a little "salt and pepper" before being able to control a person to the extent Fred is doing (which he does). In the scenario above it seems as they guy is portraying the part of " drunk guy who messed with everybody, caused trouble and now he is staring to get tired so he sits down and doesn't want to leave". Ive notice people react to pain in different ways, specially under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol, and taking into consideration the person's size is highly critical in my opinion, as shown above I think Fred targets the pressure points around the femoral nerves in one of his scenarios, this might harder to accomplish on somebody who has a larger muscular mass due to weightlifting. The nerve stimulant might not be as shocking specially while being drunk. I think we need to keep in mind these are just scenarios, it can give us a road map on how to act but at the same time things can played out completely different. I do agree with some of the comments regarding his "abuse or excise force" to an extent. However, sometimes these things are meant to be felt, so you have an idead of much damage and pain you can cause somebody, and Fred shows a lot of control. The art of self defense is not ballet, it doesn't mean you have to train all the time like you would fight, but it it won't hurt ( no pun intended) to try things out in a realistic painful way occasionally so you can gauge your performance and know when to go full power and when to pull back.

[@Nicurru]

How to attack a man on a bench.

[@Kilo_of_Milk]

The one thing I don't like about Mastro is how excessively rough he is, all good to ally a technique but you don't have to be excessive.

[@FunkerTactical]

Agreed. It's mostly for show.

[@BUBE-yh1re]

Very nice because i dont know if he dies or not ...

[@armenvladimirovich877]

Drunk people do not respond to pain the same as sober people

[@apolitis1]

Having no intention to start an argument about X martial art being superior to Y martial art, my question is this: would these techniques work as well against someone with BJJ, MMA or other competitive fighting skills? Also how do you modify your technique against someone who is expecting you to attack him and is ready to resist? Love your videos btw keep it up!

[@jf4764]

No they wouldn't work as well, but they would still work on most people. Fred has extensive training in BJJ and muay thai , so he knows what to expect from your average mma fighter. They on the other hand have not spent 20 years training in Silat. A martial art where the main goal is to attack the very same parts of the body that mma fighters spend years avoiding, so to not get disqualified. If you don't believe me watch a video of an mma fighter training, then watch a video of Silat training in Indonesia. You'll see the difference pretty quickly.

[@ChrisSecurity]

With a lot of respect I don't understand, they laugh but there's nothing to Laugh...Thanks your compliant friend, everybody of us could work with a compliant sparring partner....

[@mcswaggermcmuffin69]

He's fine, don't worry. Enough with the negativity, stay positive. I mean maybe before this video the instructor might've asked the person if he's ok being use as a subject for this video if he says no, either the video might not be recorded, or you would see a different person. I've also been used as a subject for demonstration, it hurts, however, it shows the effect on the audience. Some people will say, "oh the subject tap to the instructor, but he didn't let go" I've seen masters/instructor going a bit extreme to their students, but like I said the instructor must've asked permission before doing this.

[@IvanZehirov]

I really want to put positive comment but I cant this time lol so I will shut up

[@ajwilson313]

Agree 100%.

[@MikeyFFA500]

He's good but you can tell he gets a kick out of hurting defenseless people that are volunteering for examples. I could never train with someone like that, no respect.

[@Kirq]

This guy likes to cause pain, no doubt about that. Took every second, and every oportunity to make this "lesson" as bad as possible for this "student".

[@otownhardcore]

I would love to see what happens if he tried that on someone who practices Judo, Sambo, Jiu-jitsu, etc. Not very impressive to me. You are in a dominant position telling someone with no training, what they can/cant do in response, lol. Then take into account in the "real world" situation, the person is intoxicated. This dude is a joke and makes this channel look bad. In this scenario, you could easily just walk behind the guy and put him in an RNC and slid him of the bench. All the other bullshit is completely unnecessary. I don't see someone sitting on a bench, intoxicated, a threat worthy of striking. It's unnecessary violence like this that's contributed to the divide between civilians and law enforcement.

[@wowKyl3]

No one in the street "respects the tap", more than likely they will keep going through with hurting you. Being put through that pain shows you just how serious real situations are. It trains the psychology to put you in a state of vulnerability in order to prioritize awareness over pain.

You're gonna remember how much that shit hurts so you don't make stupid mistakes that'll get you killed. Man tf up!

[@edi9892]

Interesting techniques, but IMHO too over the top for someone refusing to stand up, especially how you attacked the neck. People will think that you want to kill him and panick, or worse start to interfere. BTW I'm aware that even a douchy pushing contest can end lethal, but some actions scream murder and will escalate hostile situations.

[@hayamatakenaka502]

Impressive... Very impressive .... But only problem is ... I can't imagine that situation LOL. No offense

[@eeyore077]

Also thought about a scenario when the guy is grabbing your girlfriend, but you're supposed to avoid the situation (unless you're a cuckold..)and of course calling the police...waiting for the cops, what would we do? staring at him? punching him shouldnt be the best choice so here comes this video..anyway i hope nobody have to use those moves

[@northswole]

The problem with this guy is that he's too cocky. When you see a drunk person sitting down, let him be. This makes no sense. You only defend when being attacked or perceive a threat. A drunk person against someone sober is an easily controllable situation without causing much harm. This guy and Marcaida are totally different.

[@claldridge77]

let us consider this: You have martial arts training. great you know how to do all of this stuff, but if the guy is sitting down how disorderly is he really being? I mean come on. Even if broski is talking mad shit if he stays on his ass he isnt a threat to you. however this technique would be very well used in police training. to gain control of a suspect who refuses to comply. but if you walk up on a police officer with his hands anywhere near someones throat, go ahead and guarantee there are 100 cameras rolling and 600 misinterpretations within the next hour. There are pressure points throughout the body which can be manipulated far better against an intoxicated adversary than having your hands near their throat. Just my opinion though feel free to not give a fuck

[@prising6928]

So he is now teaching people to beat the hell out of and potentially kill someone who is sitting down and unarmed. They have not risen to attack or anything else, so who is this geared towards? If it is geared towards police it’s certainly police brutality, if it’s for anyone else without a lot more context I would say he is potentially training thugs. Also I’m a fan of training to painful extent (minus injury), however this guy is creaming in his pants causing pain to his students/training partners.

[@jrod198289]

I have never liked these"demonstrations" because the person they are doing it to doesn't fight back! if you really think it works then put some MMA gloves on, mouth piece and head gear and prove it! a lot of the things he showed will work but no one will just let you do that with out a fight. my advice keep it as basic as possible.

[@ChrisKsan]

Funny how most people are squirmish about the roughness of Fred's videos. He doesn't work in sports martial arts, he doesn't do sports martial arts, he practices actual martial arts with the old school approach. His field of expertise is self defense and he has also worked as a bouncer. You learn a LOT faster and the point gets across a lot soonet practicing this way. It's not pleasant but neither are real life situations where you need to have at least as much of this attitude if not double.

[@Robgenik]

I cant find any links of this guy actually sparring with someone. Does anyone have a link, or is this just more phony demo garbage?

[@georgebrown4044]

the guy is sitting down and doing nothing. Besides if someone is drunk would some of those pain compliance even work or wouldn't the guy be fighting back. Just get the guy in a rear choke and drag him out or choke him out then drag him out. No need for the knee bump etc. ha

[@OldBadger1]

Do you ever show training where people fight back from "fair" non set up positions

[@KristofferEngstrom]

Quite disturbing seeing the grin of this "instructor" when he inflicts pain.. He gives the impression of beeing a fucking mentaljob. Atl to me.

[@WiscoMTB37]

these are move where you are both standing still and the guy you do it has no defense reaction. this is like the karate instructors that tell their student they are the best fighter in the world and this will work on anyone. not saying this guy calming that but he is acting like these moves are going to forsure work every time without even considering someone spazing out, blocking with the neck with your hand, perrying and stepping to the side. (last video they did like this it would have applied more). if you have learning fighting techniques, I don't see this working. if I struggle and get you to the ground, no amount little knives and throat chops are going to keep me from getting your back and choking u out. even that guy

[@gyrox0031]
