Impressive Martial Arts Clips

January 11, 2003 5:03 PM

Meet Joe Eigo and his Multi Level Moves. Inpired by Bruce Lee, Eigo is a gymnast and stuntman extraodinaire - don't miss the amazing demo tape .asf file he made for Jackie Chan (and his other video clips ain't half bad, either!) via diminished responsibility.

That video is absolutely amazing!!! The guy must have springs surgically implanted in his heels. Awesome.
Even so, my awe slightly is tempered by the fact that his site doesn't recognize Mozilla.
Just kidding. Thanks for the link, MJJJ.

Great scot!

That's simply amazing! But I can kick a soccer ball like that too. No problem.

I really, really, want to play in that giant pit of foam.

It's obvious he has a lot of gymnastic talent, but his fight choreography needs a lot of work. It's just not very crisp or realistic. I'm more impressed by guys like Brad Allan.

All these gymnast types seem to be really short... anyway that anyone over 6 feet tall could ever hope to do flips like that? I want to see it.

I'm speechless; much like that robot dance video post that I can't be bothered to look up and link to, sometimes the things people can do without wires or special effects just dumbfound me. Very, very cool link MJJJ!!

sorry about that, shinybeast! There are several video links on the site - maybe some are in a more dial-up friendly format?

jonson, I think the clip you are referring to is kollaboration - another stunning display of physical control.

Eh... those French people that run up and down walls were way more cool. However my favorite move is when he casually jumps up onto the next floor that's at about neck height. Because that seems like it'd be pretty useful actually.

That is EXACTLY the clip I'm referring to. Madam, your tenacity outstrips mine, hands down.

It's amazing, but someone needs to tell the cameraman that you're supposed to shoot with the sun behind you, not into it.

Sheesh, amateurs.
