cool...I remember seeing the old guy years ago on ther original Bill Moyers interview. Pretty interesting stuff...
Why do they keep trying to measure Chi as if it were electricity? What kind of bullshit science validation/invalidation is that?
Maybe we should have science validate that we are all actually breathing, since afterall, there is no electricity coming in or out of our lungs!

I don't know how authentic this is, but I've seen similar clips before. There are too many factors to consider. Is it parlor tricks? Is it suggestion and psychology, this "empty force" thing? Is it a combination of both of those? Is it authentic completely, or a mix of suggestion and something authentic? Who knows. I've never experienced this to know. I think it is overhyped in martial arts and many are frauds out there. Still maybe possible nonetheless.

Those videos are really neat
It is pretty weird, m1thr0s, how science approaches mysticism. As if scientific tools/instruments are going to be able to measure everything in existence. Hey why not use an etch-a-sketch to depict that murderer...
