Plywood OK, hard or soft? :))))
Bord don't kick back
He was also in the best of the best 2 .. long hair metal ball at the end of his braid
Boards don't hit back!
It's impressive – but why such grand masters never score high in MMA fights?
Despite his abilities breaking those half inch 10×8 boards isn’t that impressive. I’m sure a grand master can pull off better breaking techniques to show power and precision
This sounds like an NES game
ni puede romper las tablas especiales.
Boards don’t hit back!? He is so silly on tameshiwari)))))

Can anyone name who first introduced Mr. Cho to completion free style fighting . Who was living in South Bend IN?
Hee il cho is an absolute legend. One of the first Korean masters to break from traditional tkd and incorporate western boxing and kickboxing into his teachings
Royce Gracie talks that defeat him
Wow 🙈🙉🙈
Love his aggression doesn't pussy foot around gives a 100% on all his techniques especially when he's demonstrating them
Great👍
Anybody can break weak pine along the grain. Try solid Oak next!
People forget how huge traditional martial arts was back in the day. In California alot of dudes on the stree were martial artists. All the films and of course bruce lee help popularize it. Old school tkd was no joke
Even his practice kick was so fast it was a blur. I remember going to his academy on Pico Blvd by Sawtelle in west LA back in the 90's to sign up and he had so many students they were barely fitting in there and it was a massive place. Everyone wanted to train under him. At the time he had the world record for the fastest spinning back kick, I believe. Might have been a different much but he definitely held the world record and if you see him do it you literally just saw a blur of him spin and before you knew it he was done and you missed it because you blinked.
“Boards don’t hit back “
One of my biggest flexes is that I grew up with philp ameris….
Hill Chow hee I'll cho
This guy barely had a polar ice a day he was in Korea lucky to get a bowl of rice a day and this guy is probably one of the best ever a badass taekwondo martial artist ever lived yet this guy lived in such poverty had such little food yet with hard work and determination you can't possibly the best Merc in the world
Right he was eating carbohydrates is eating rice and the carbohydrates what literally had with fuel the energy for the fire that he needed to do martial arts if you take a look at the best athletes they were on carbohydrate diets I really don't believe that they're eating high protein they didn't even have the money to have any protein
The sky was the most underrated martial artist in the world when he was the world champions what he was I doubt if anybody could have matched this guy's skill bar night no one
That is just badass impressive nobody can match how many f**** boards this guy can break
I was going to choose a martial artist my life was on the f**** line it would be this guy this guy is born on the top of son of a b** they're running the United States
He was one of a handful of TKD guys that actual fighters of the time respected. The rest were not. He was a legend!
Earned my belts with him during the 80’s in Los Angeles. A wise, strong man that took no BS. NONE.
Ya whatever,,,, I used to do this with my hand.. UNDER MR.KIMs instruction, @ MR.KIMS ACADEMY OF TAE KWON DO.. @ 11 YEARS OLD. 1. 12"×12" pine board ,with grain… as ALL do.. 1 board per belt.. to pass MR.KIMS test.. back then we had , WHITE ,ORANGE, BLUE, BROWN,BLACK belts only.. not what these FK PUPPETS have NOW… just sayin.. Oh and yes I was UNDEFEATED AS WAS MY OLDER BROTHER… MUCH RESPECT TO MR.KIM AND his INSTRUCTOR MR.GARY CANNON… D.M.IOWA…
A true humble giant in martial arts. Innovator, teacher and an outstanding example of perseverance and hard training. 👏

GOD JESUS CHRIST IS COMING BACK AMEN SHARE THE GOSPEL OF GOD JESUS 2 PEDRO REPENT NOW ITS TOO LATE RETURN TO GOD JESUS CHRIST NOW
Poor exhibition in my opinion. He spent most of the time prepararing the show but he was not able to break most of them
