@@hawaiijim No way, dude. The judo throw that the wrestling hiptoss is taken from is way stronger

[@IHateHandleNames]

Seth there's an important point about your test versus Joe Rogan: Joe's impact device is rigidly mounted to an unmoving surface. That means 100% of the force goes into the system, and none of it is lost moving the device around. Seth is testing it duct taped to a punching bag and a grappling dummy, both are going to give when you hit them, both the bag moving and the sand compressing, and that giving is bleeding off your impact and lowering the numbers on the screen. That definitely contributes to your ground strikes being noticably higher. The device can't sink through the ground so it's registering 100% of the impact. If I was gonna test it on a bag I'd use a water bag over a sand bag. Water doesn't compress. You'll still lose some impact to water displacement (the bag won't be full to the brim with water) but you won't get the crushing force loss of the sand which will displace. I could be wrong on that, but it would be interesting to try both and see.

[@Namdrahsirhc]

Came here to point out this difference. Makes that roundhouse even more impressive. Although Seth is a lot bigger than Rogan

[@IHateHandleNames]

@@Namdrahsirhc I'm not against Seth or anything. I too think it's cool that his roundhouse is stronger. I'm just saying next time he tests it he did securely mount that thing for a more accurate comparison to rogans setup.

[@attiylanen]

I was going to point out the exact same thing. Attach the cube to a rigid wall. All the power goes to the cube. I think it also matters at which angle you hit the sensors inside the cube. Newertheless, force depends on mass and acceleration, so the heaviest strikes come with using your bodyweight.

[@TheOzumat]

Or just secure the device to a rigid metal pole and replicate the conditions under which Joe set his record.

[@calebschaaf1555]

That last roundhouse was also the only kick where your partner wasn’t pulling the bag backwards as your leg made contact. Rogan kicked against a static wall. The slight movement allowed by the hanging bag can either make your hit stronger or weaker than it actually was.

[@maxisalas5249]

The biggest problem is that the numbers depend a lot on accuracy too. A hit right in the centre with be triple one even a couple centimetres to the side which is probably making the spinning kicks way lower than they should be

[@gw1357]

You've got to anchor the sensor better. You're bleeding force off all your numbers. You also need to try to land with the smallest impact area possible to concentrate the force. The reason that one axe kick was way higher than the others is because the impact point was the heel instead of the flat of the foot. (Same reason you had so much variance in the spinning rear kick.) On the roundhouse, you were bleeding force by not having it anchored and by hitting with the meatier upper shin instead of the foot. I think you could hit more.

[@Perplexiteezy]

Certain strikes will have the most force (F= Mass x Accel) but surface area isn’t taken into account in the test. An elbow or a punch has a lot less surface area hitting a target. Do a pressure equation (P= Force / area) and see what applies the most pressure

[@aaronparry7068]

I would love to see these all measured with a rigid mount. As many people other people have already noted, the way you measured techniques not hitting a lying target involved a fair bit of give so that may well have impacted the results in unforseen ways (e.g., causing side kick to transfer force at a bad angle or the spinning techniques to glance off slightly). It also would be really cool to see a colab with a couple channels to try and get more aggregate results, since different people favour different techniques. That said, still super cool to see all these measurements and definitely gives an interesting perspective to some underutilised techniques!

You may be at a disadvantage to Rogan’s kick because he seemed to have a rigid support behind the cube while you have a bag. That’s going to absorb some of the momentum and may affect the measurement?

Also, the double fist is super common in old black and white cowboy movies. It’s the “fight ender” that finally knocks guys out when it’s delivered to the back of their heads.

[@georgiykireev9678]

It's kinda strange how people don't expect it to be strong. I mean, there's a reason this move is so popular among other great apes.

[@danielwolfe978]

Good video Seth! Great work getting up into the 160,000s. A question: I know in the last video you started on a pole and then moved to a bag, but wouldn't kicking against a solid object give you an advantage? You improved when someone held the bag, and maybe you could improve more if you kicked against something even more solid, maybe a wall like Joe Rogan did. Just wondering if you could go even higher and stretch the lead. But I don't understand the powerkube at all so maybe that wouldnt work. Either way, great job!

[@SaltLight7]

That's exactly what I was thinking. Even if the person holding the bag didn't move backwards there is still some flex in the bag. Even the Powerkube sliding horizontally will misdirect some of the force.

[@denisl2760]

Joe Rogan had his cube anchored really securely to the wall, probably helped his numbers. Something like a steel or concrete column would be best though, with a wall its harder to get the right angle. A bag moves, even with someone holding it, you lose energy.

[@lazyman7505]

Yeah. If he mounts it on the wall, he can beat Joe Rogan easily, with pretty much any kick he wants. The solid backstop makes a huge difference.

[@The31st]

The issue is also you need accuracy with the cube, you gonna hit it in the best spot to get the best score and something like a spinning back kick is harder to place pin point. On the other hand you can use a big wide swing to hit the middle plus extra

[@fireeaglefitnessmartialart935]

The other thing I noticed about the roundhouse in this, is that joe is kicking horizontally, and Seth is kicking slightly upwards, going against gravity and the guy holding the bag is holding the bag up more so Seth has to raise up to hit it.

[@NexGenRogue]

[@THENickRyder]

This experiment was done a few years back (Muay Thai Vs Karate Vs Taekwondo Vs Capoera) and the most powerful kick was a Capoera kick. If my memory serves me, it utilizes a greater percentage of body weight and slightly more momentum than the roundhouse. The video is on KZbin somewhere

[@filipcesnjak2944]

It is not just power and speed of the strike it is about where that strike lands, you can have much higher power with horse kick (ushiro geri) but with the elbow you can cut the skin and cause visual problems to your oponent... never the less this is the good way to test the power of the strikes to have one persion that knows the tecnique to do them all.

[@Pharmbob69]

The main issue with all this is that the bag moves a lot more with a high momentum kick which significantly reduces the amount of force registered by the pressure transducer in the sensor pad. That's why the hammer fists and axe gave such surprising values.

[@avancalledrupert5130]

Depends on the person surely . For me it's lead hook or rear elbow . Why they were natural to me so I liked throwing them . So did it loads and fine tuned it . The power comes from the pendulum trigger step . Toe placement and hip rotation . If I throw them in combo I can throw the elbow even harder because I can take anergy from the lead hooks impact and let that anergy travel back through my body as I'm taking the second trigger step to move in deeper for the elbow . For those 2 stokes my technique is perfect and it is my entire mass accelerated to a tiny point . That's the point . Any trike when done perfectly be it punch or kick should theoretically be able to produce the same . Because any move done correctly is entire body mass accelerated then transferred to a locked out limb . Look at Liston's jab . His technique was perfect it landed with his entire mass behind it . I mean my round kick and front kick are probably more force . But they are not fight ending moves . Because they less pressure . Mass times speed divided by aria . That and can't kick head hight lol

[@dali1384]

you also have to consider leverage. your legs are a much greater lever than arms while also having more mass which is being propelled by the body. another important fact is the sturdyness of your weapon. a wrist might not be able to transfer all the power like a shin or elbow since it will bend at some point. the size of your impacting bodypart and its ability to project the amount of power to a smaller area does further multiply the damage hitting the target.

[@iamjaiguy]

I think a good takeaway from this video is that just because something is powerful, doesn't mean its the least dangerous. Those elbows you put in are dangerous but not necessarily strong.

I'd imagine so, I've never thrown it nor had it thrown at me but it seems like it has a huge telegraph before you can effectively throw it.

[@wesleyhollandjr111]

The way I was taught ridge hands had way less of a lead-up time, one of the primary usages was to slip a guard, hitting with a lateral motion despite starting with a linear motion. Essentially, starting with a punch, but taking that rotation of your fist at the end of the strike and turning into a striking surface just above thumb, or else wrist/forearm instead of your two knuckles. Whether this is 'historically accurate', no freakin clue. :D (But it definitely worked and popped people with it who were expecting a linear strike.)

Try a lvl 3 debt Systema ballistic strike, aka relaxed wave strikes with full kinetic chain application through the body.

Please do the follow-up with hand tools (with @hard2hurt ). I.e. a regular punch vs a punch with a gas lighter in the fist. Or a hammerfist vs hammerfist with a stick palmed. etc.

[@logicalsparrow2130]

You should attach the sensor to a stationary anchor like a wall instead of a moving one like the heavy bag. The wall will push back more whereas the moving bag will suck in some energy when you make it move. The reason the attacks on the machine were so good when it was on the floor was because the floor doesn't take away anything. By analogy, imagine you're laying on the floor and someone drops a 10 pound weight from 10 feet up on your stomach. Then imagine the same scenario except you're laying on a trampoline. Which one hurts more? It's also the reason that cars are designed with crumple zones. Though the old video where the capoeira kick did so well had a stationary target, the issues there were that the kicks didn't all land on the same place on the stick-shaped sensor and that the guys had different weight. Smaller tips: the farther down your leg the spinning kick meets the target, the more force it will impart since that part will be moving faster. If our feet didn't have so many small and fragile bones, we would be contacting with them instead of the shin. You can also increase the force by increasing your weight, especially at the tip of your leg, such as by wearing (heavy) shoes. You might also get some bonus force if your body started off moving instead of stationary, like if you had a several step running head start.

Nice result. I'm interested in the impact that other of sports would generate. What would a fastball register, how about some WWE moves (if executed for real) or a tackle from a beefy linebacker on a punt returner.

Love the friendly competition

It is supposed that the strongest blow in martial arts is the takedown (nage-waza), they call it the law of motor recruitment, it involves all our weight and part of the uke's, in addition to stopping suddenly on a solid surface, even though that will be a bit more difficult to check.

I think Seth if you come off to the side of the kube so you do it like Rogan did you could easily surpass 180,000. The angle your leg is hitting the bag isn't completely flat where as his was I think if you step right and then kick it like your kicking across the front of someones belly rather than their ribs you'll smash it. I think its a karate thing as we're taught to usually strike the 90 degree side of something where as muay Thai players often step off center to kick. Nice video
