We’ve had questions about machete combat in the past, so I thought you might find it interesting to see a documentary on the Haitian martial art:
Tire Machèt

and its master Papa Machete. The style is (for the most part) unknown outside of Haiti and it is tied to their cultural traditions.

For more information on this little known Haitian fencing, check out their website.

Is there a difference between passing out and being knocked out? Where’s the line? Can trauma from head hits not knock someone out, but result in passing out? Can being knocked out for more than a few seconds be bad news, but passing out for hours just be regenerative, and if so what would cause that distinction to physically manifest?Next PostFightWrite: Your Killers Need to Kill
