Mel is the real deal and has fought in front of thousands in Thailand. He doesn't train breaking bats. It's just for demonstration purpose so an audience can see what kind of power is delivered by a well trained kick. Body hardening training has been done by traditional martial artist for years. Besides an excellent martial artist, Mel Menor is a great trainer and still teaches in San Diego at his gym.
Muay Thai fighters don't condition their shins by hitting hard objects like trees or poles. They condition their shins from years of kicking heavy bags and sparring without shinpads or mouthpieces. These is how they condition their legs and bodies, so muay thai fighters being able to kick and break down banana trees is just a perk they get due to years of kicking heavy bags.
Raymond Jayam i think u are wrong because mel told them how he does it so who are u to say that he did not did it like that
Mounthpiece?
Ya dont kick trees right away youll break your legs. They even advise agaisnt using rolling pins to desesitize them just kick that bag and spar. You can use a rolling pin just rake it acorsso the shin but trust me it doesnt feel good and you still have to kick while its sore or its uselss and just bruises you.
You are correct sir.

muay thai fighters kick through trees for fun
Hahaha serious?
look it up, u may see some kicking banana trees but thats a joke, they actually kick hard trees for fun at some camp lol(pretty hard to find)
There's a youtube video of my trainer kicking through a baseball bat. He doesn't look it but he's a beast.
Just search PAC muay thai.
Banana trees yes, and they are not super hard but still damn it improves their shins!
bah
Gives me a whole new respect for leg kicks and how they can end a fight
now the aluminum bat
It would just dent and aluminum alloy is very strong.
@@luciusirving5926 No shit !!!
Jesse Colin Hahaha
Lucius Irving he would break his leg,you need about 38,000 pounds of force do break aluminum
@@rover5058 you must be fun at parties
As soon as a Muay Thai kicks you, you gone, even before a punch reaches you. That's why I do it in Brazil.
I heard the Brazilian mma fighter Anderson Silva broke his shin while kicking another guy's shin in the octagon
कालदमन phdns yes the other guy checked his kick at a bad angle that’s why it broke.
Pretty sweet - the precision is awesome as well...
now try BUAKAW !!
BUAKAW!!!! no leg can beat this dude
Are you saying no leg kick can beat buakaw or are you saying the guy kicking the bat in this video is buakaw??
KyosaNimGe just saying dude, buakaw's leg is like a brick there is hardly no-one who can kick as strong or powerful than him ^^
Yoshi Nagatomo OH! Trust me I know! Buakaw is made of steel! He is my favorite fighter he is truly talented and dedicated!
KyosaNimGe cheers pal ^^
I love BUAKAW. Nothing fancy. Just raw brute force. The man is a beast.
You can definitely defeat at least 2 enemies after breaking the bat in half and throwing it at them.
I love Muay Thai! I want to be strong like that as well!
So how did it go
hahahah hilarious
Broke your leg?
After 6 years you are ready for break a bat?
Tell us your progress dude
Well nobody would think a soccer kick or a punt would break a bat. Those kicks are designed to do what they're designed to do! The Thai Kick would be equally useless on a football. Cool that the kick can break the bat though!
+Trent M It would be useless because it would obliterate the ball lol
Depends on the point of contact. The further down the leg, the more force is generated. So you would generate the most force at the foot, rather then the shin. The main reason Muay Thai fighters hit with the shin is because it's one solid bone instead of the foot which is a collecting of small bones.
Chuck Norris was called to do this as well, but he kept ripping the guy's arms off that are holding the bat.
Hold this W
Chuck norris is bruce lees bitch. Bruce lee made him the joke that he is.
Funny thing. In a japanese No Laugh or punishment TV show (Gaki no Tsukai - Batsu Games) there's this punishment "Thai kick" which they get kicked in the butt by a Muay Thai practitioner. There was this special episode where they called a japanese champion and to demonstrate he broke three stacked baseball bats with one kick.
Griffith Yes, I saw that as well. It was in their Airport Batsu game.
Poor, poor Tanaka-San lol
Wow!! That is seriously impressive
Notice the lowness of the kick. Watch for the motion's concerted timing, especially the pivot of the foot, the core turning, the knee leading the shin into the target, dissipating the full power.
can't wait to get back to this wonderful sport
Damm, I do not want to be on the receiving end of that, unless I'm wearing fucking titanium armor
He would still be able to break you.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium
I first time I of Mel was on Stan Lee’s Superhumans and seen a break two baseball bats as well on the show.
Part of what you need to measure force is the resistance. Those balls put almost no resistance, so the force is going to be a lot lower. The punters kick being launched into a human would show numbers in the upper thousand.
That is freaking terrifying. Holy shit.
imagine getting hit in the leg by one of those.... RIP.
If you rub and tap the shin with a solid object everyday it will become very strong
It's fucking brutal and fight ending to take a thai kick to the thigh.
they just had to say the joke at the end
you know this WHOLE episode was an excuse for them to say this joke. dedication...
i fractured BOTH of my shins and they never re healed properly and they sometimes hurt just from running i need to do that training tho
สุดยอด ต้องฝึกหนักมากๆถึงจะเก่งขนาดนี้
And what if they held the bat upside down? That I would love to watch
Are u fucking kidding me the best Muay Thai fighter is buakaw por pramuk
mrbokchoyz1 What's your point?
i think saenchai would have something to say about that but anyway like mumble beats said whats your point?
Nah. Saenchai bro. Buakaw is just more famous because of K-1. There are many Muay Thai fighters better than him
+mrbokchoyz1 It hard to say who is the best muay thai fighter. Buakaw is famous because his aggressive style
yodsanklai also aggressive and powerful strike too.
lol
Vince Lombardi was predictable too. He knew it, and whoever was playing the Packers knew it. Guess what both teams also knew? That they couldn't stop the Packers anyway, so it didn't matter. His whole philosophy was, "Keep it simple, get insanely good at those simple things, and then it doesn't matter if they know it's coming or not, because they can't stop it."
"Three of the strongest legs."
Who's here 10 years later
That pun though
When the object being hit is fixed then obviously it will register greater force compared to object which is moved by hitting. For example if the muay thai fighter would be kicking small ball his reading wouldn’t be as great as 720.
The training for Muai Thai is pretty though. Many of the time the training are spent on the legs, building strength and kicking stuff basically.
what is that figther's name , He looks like kung lee though
They are not calculating the force of the two other assistants that they deliver to the bat, one of them produces a force clockwise and the other anti-clockwise and those two are added to the initial force produced by the kick.. so technically he's very good, but the assistants helped in breaking the bat more easily !
Very true. Good point.
i thought it was the man who got kicked * because on the thumbnail i didn't saw that baseball bat *
See*
Amari Ajrulla saw* , get it?? seesaw?
Normie
He's also kicking the thinnest most vulnerable spot of the bat...but still cool
Muay thai baseball. Legs for the bat. Someone get on it.
this is really just good technique, eating healthy and 100's of kicks on a heavy bag a day. btw, there are kicks SO MUCH more powerful than a roundhouse
+Tre' Roney keep going
+Krain N roundkick, turning side kick, knee, wheel kick, some caporia kicks and many more. I've never tried it, but I'm sure I could break a bat with my experience skill and technique in martial arts.
you sure wheel kicks are stronger? They look hard to put your whole body into them compared to the roundhouse
+Krain N Yes, the hip geometry of a wheel kick is very much like an ice duster l skater doing a spinning trick. while the geometry of a roundhouse is similar to a man swinging a bat. As you can tell, I love martial arts!
+Tre' Roney
Very true. However, for such a powerful kick, a roundhouse kick is considered more effective and efficient due to its speed and the simplicity of performing it. It's one of the most effective kicks that can be used in a fight than many other powerful kicks.
But is it the strongest kick? Nah, definitely not. All the kicks you've listed are much more powerful.
Kicking trees is a thing of the past. Muay Thai fighters are now kicking metal poles and wrenches 🔧.
The animation shows a different contact point on his leg than in reality.
I can't read the comment you replied to because it doesn't exist anymore. What did the person say?
wow ...Muay Thai
Of course.. The goal of the Martial artist is to far exceed even the monster of this world in speed and power!
Yeah, almost every kicking martial art has the potential to break a bat. Hell; my shinkyokushin shihan held a world record for breaking so many bats over and over.
How did they measure the soccer player and the football player? Both the football and the soccer ball fly on impact meaning it didn't absorb nearly as much of the force. While a baseball bat is held in place. Enlighten me anyone?
1:24 - "Edson Butthole"
lmao
TheSocialGadfly 💀💀💀
melchor menor is a beast though.
I remembered this video from when i was 10
9 years later, you're still a little shit- just older. lol
@@goodhumourwagon faxts lmao
Gosh, I really thought he was going to break his leg with the maple bat!
How did i get here from shin kicking game
Bro look at his fight he literally killed the guy wtf bone conditioning ftw
"He can kick some serious ash" LOL
I need i new kind of kick
dam, I was waiting for them to bring the aluminium bat out
everybody search chip towsend world record 2016 he breaks 4 bats in one kick that is MY instructor
I don’t want to be the guy holding the bat in the sleep position
The whole time all I wanted to see was a camera angle of him throwing the kick with his standing leg in the shot. It looks like he doesn't pivot during the kick and instead lands his left (non kicking) foot twisted in the position it would be at the end of the kick and then throws his hips into the kick. Is that possible because he was running into the strike? and therefore if he was standing still would he need to pivot to generate the extra power missing?
I personally kick like him. I do muaythai in 2 different styles and I know exactly what ur talking about. 1 school tells me to kick like him, the other tells me to change and use more hip and leg rotation to generate more force....
It's a type of luck he's doing. It's like getting a running start to his kick
That last pun pissed me off
so, could he play baseball, kicking the balls ?
Not designed to, but probably yeah.
That would hurt like a bitch tho
tambourinh play baseball?you mean they throw the bat at his direction so he can kick it?he was kicking a bat. Not a baseball
Nice he he he 😅😅
we do this all the time is kyokushin karate.
In kyokushin karate you aren't allowed to hit a guy's face, or use elbows or knees. Muay thai is BRUTAL, they break their own legs, just to make them stronger !!!
I bet he can make balls dissapear with that kick
and this is why I never argue with muay thai fighters
seriose power in those legs
@TheTrebooor Hahahaha wow that's great!
Mel's actually a lightweight. But it's not too uncommon to find Muay Thai experts that small or smaller be able to chop down baseball bats like that.
Dayum!!!
Why not Buakaw?
Did they really have to test this? Plenty of people in the martial arts world have done this
Money... and people who don't know what martial arts even is.
Yeah, right?
Most martial artists can't even strike with the shin, like American kickboxers and western kickboxing is for pussies.
@@luciusirving5926 what do i do then when there is no muay thai places near me
Thai soldier has been using it since it was discover
Also alot of Muay Thai Krus can do this
The real mvp is the guy holding the bat on the ground
kick some serious ash
he has a baddd kick
Look out! We have a batkicker here,
There was another science test for Martial arts and a seventh degree tae kwon do generated 2200 pounds of force in one kick
Holly fuck
Technique
Is that enough to send a football to Mars though?
the thing is,no one really had a ground gameand competitors against the gracies had no idea whatto expect/do when theywere takendown and submitted.that's the great thingabout MMA nowadays, you have to be well versed in a motley of fighting styles to actually get somewhere in ufc/etc..you honestly think some one doing PURE bjj will last in the octagon nowadays?I think the gracies will get destroyed by someone trained in both bjj and superior striking skills.just take a look at 'the gracie hunter'
Ozzy Osbourne can eat a bat
If you think you can break baseball bats by kicking bags and pads you must really optimistic :)
Strong kick by training a lot of kick.
Other guy also can do it if their train hard like muay thai guy.
Did you pay attention to the video at all?
Its mental
@equirn3 but when would you be able to use it? lol, maybe when someone gets owned in pokemon
imagine if he missed his kick and aim at the guy head , what will happen
now try roberto carlos
Tru but zlatan would be better
taekwando football/soccer >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>muay thai
nah
Audrey Yun He might hurt his shin
That is a bad man!
I hear the Muay Thai fighting style originated from ancient asian lumberjacking techniques.
Should've gotten Ramon Dekkers
Why didn't they just put protection on his leg if it was that dangerous shit
They dramatized it a lot.
Dude, Moti Horenstein broke 38 baseball bats under a minute
they kicked a guy in the nuts on sports science with 1100 lbs of force
watch " Isaac breaking Louisville bat "
Muay thai is the thoughest sport idgaf what Anybody says
ไม้แค่นี้ แถวบ้านเด็ก6ขวบเตะต้นสักก็หักมาแล้ว ขานะที่หักอ่ะ
Kick some serious ash
bo Jackson used 2 break them over his knee all the time
1000 lbs kick... how does "blocking" even help if he hit with the right spot?
