When you study the deep spiritual aspect of kung fu, particularly Shaolin kung fu, you sooner or later will touch upon the ephemeral and mystic power of “chi”. This “chi” energy is the energy which comes from the spiritual dimension possessed, though latent, in every human being.

Have you ever heard stories like the one of a small and frightened mother who summoned up unexpected, incredible power and strength to lift a Volkswagon off of her pinned child under the wheel of the car? This is an example of “chi” power.

The “chi” is trained to be accumulated in the spot which lies about 2 inches below the navel. Once concentrated there, one punch knockouts are common even to the point of being able to break an opponent’s bones as though they were no more than brittle chalk.

In this clip, you will witness amazing feats of Shaolin kung fu masters executing their developed powers of the “chi” force. When used for self-defense in martial arts, this “chi” is the force behind the death touch.

This is a feature covered on the Fox Channel news of Chicago of a martial arts teacher who possesses and demonstrates very convincingly the ancient secret power of the Kung Fu death touch - from a distance!  You must see it to believe it.

Bruce Lee, in this rare footage shows his knowledge and ability of the coveted one-inch Chi energy blow which is said to be the root of the one touch death blow.
