    Does Adam Mizner do seminars outside of his bubble? It would be so cool to attend one.

    Adam could literally just enter a push hands competition at an Arnold's Classic to prove his legitimacy.

      Why does he need to do that? Its not him questioning himself but others ... so that is wierd. And Certainly not because youtube members say he must... im sure he has better things to do with his time no? Like all of us do?

    The only evidence that would change your mind is hands on experience, I get that. So when you say it's on him to prove it, you're asking him to come to you and do a personal demo basically. This is why people say to go meet him and find out in person, not to have you disprove but to experience first hand. I'm glad you have the position of be willing to change your mind, that is the best first step in my opinion.

    • @martialgeeks
      @martialgeeks  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      No, I need sufficient evidence that supports the claim so I can have a warranted belief in Mizner's ability, hands on experience is only one of the possible roads to that, but it's not by any means the ONLY evidence that would change my mind...best evidence actualy would be the scientific conscensus agreeing that this stuff is possible...or at least Mizner throwing mma guys arround in the same way he throws his students and replicates it multiple times with multiple people...not funded documentaries that can easily be faked, actual live video taken by skeptics and techniques performed on skeptics would be the least that can be done from a person making such extraordinary claims that contradict everything we know about how phisycs work

      The problem with video for evidence is anyone can just claim it's fake or the people involved were paid to go along with it. It doesn't matter if there is video of him tossing MMA fighters or strongmen, it would never be enough, which is fine actually. The only way to be completely sure is to have hands on experience. And the last few years have shown me scientific consensus just doesn't carry weight and I'd rather not dismiss something based on the opinions of others.

    The problem with what you're doing from the outset here is that it's not really critical thinking, on two major levels. And I am not a Mizner follower or that of any magic, as a disclaimer.
    1. I was there in the MMA community from the beginning of the term, and here are things which were not taken seriously in MMA at one point or another.
    Boxing, hammerfists, high kicks, spinning kicks or elbows, working the body, much of kickboxing- especially savate, karate, open bjj guard, sweeps, any kind of Kung fu (and this particular one continues despite several MMA top 5 fighters having had sanda backgrounds), and even Judo. All of these things became taken seriously eventually. There was enormous prejudice in MMA, and even today some of theories of respected MMA coaches dismiss older arts to the point that is self contradictory and conspiratorial -begging the question of how the arts that gave them the moves they now use from kicks to armbars could have been frauds.
    The second and bigger problem with your reasoning is the assumption that if mizner type taiji was real, it would be useful for combat sports athletes. But football quarterbacks do not make use of baseball pitching and vice versa. They are already adapted to excelling in different scenarios, despite both being athletes that throw balls.
    Maybe if the way to win a UFC championship was to be able to handle yourself in most surprise, black box, self defense scenarios at a moderate level, while avoiding major health problems, over a period of decades, rather than to peak at an excellent level for ten years and dominate 1 person in a sport, and who cares about the rest of your life and health - then they would.
    The idea that it would be a worthwhile trade off to train Mizner's way, even if it is real, for someone who has a million other things they MUST get good at if they want to compete in a specific sport, is not well founded.
    Here's a thought experiment: If there was a rare program that could let the average guy hit has hard as mike tyson, but it would take 20 years of constant practice, would such guys do well in MMA? Or would they lack every other skill, experience and attributes needed to win any match that went longer than 15 seconds, because they traded off those years and thus skills for developing the hardest hook on earth?

      Actualy I am, I am using sound epistemology, we are talking about specific claims, such as making a person fall just by touching the tips of their fingers, the only relevant thing here is the burden of proof that hasen't been met...no other talk is realy neccecary.

    To a person like me who has never seen Cherry Blossoms in real life, but only on TV. I cant say that, I need people to prove that they exist or is real. Instead, I must go find a cherry blossom tree for myself to see if it is real. I cant just expect others to prove its existence to me, because that is a subjective interpretation. So....

    • @martialgeeks
      @martialgeeks  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      No, that's way off, we have mountains upon mountains of evidence of cherry blossoms existing, nothing about their existence contradicts with what we understand about reality, it's not even close to being analogous...

    • @richarddeerflame
      @richarddeerflame 15 วันที่ผ่านมา

      To a person who now days sees cherry blossoms made with A.I... on screen. i think it more important than ever from scientifically testing with the subject in question to be most important. You go into a science lab and watch a teacher do this experiment and say "I have done this experiment" ?? Nope i think that is truly a false claim. You would need to go take the ingredients in your own 2 hands and put them into the beaker and switch the burner on to say "I myself have proven this experiment" that i logic. Just because it was shown before by other teachers and you never tried it realy means.... You have not tried it isnt it. Thats clear as daylight.
      You see arnold pull a truck and say ok ... now i know its possible for a human to pull a truck.... But does that mean that what you saw on the video is a truck with a engine? And how can you be sure .... Do you see how all of this works both ways .... just because you cannot perform what Adam does and you try with other people doesnt mean you know "WHAT" he is doing since you cannot know until you touch hands with him ... do the experiment yourself.
      I find it very simple and wonder why you guys want to make countless video and always claim you wontn pay to go see for yourself and a whole bunch of excuses onbly to follow up with more videos... i mean what is the point of it all. For thoise who believe you guys , i would say they are fooling themselves as well just as muchg as you guys say that mizner fans fool themselves.. it kinda can go both ways... UNTIL... you show us.. Then we can see on video... you with Mizner himself.. optherwise why should we really take what you are saying on youtube to be true? it can work in so many ways .
      We are after proof period... we literally want to see those who stand against Mizner to demo with Mizner.... until then why should we trust you?
