ja C4 what you got. halla.
im down with being ninja. i think its best. such a graceful form of combat (that should just about put the guys off i suppose). its like an art.
do indeed hook up the other stash. jack the ripper. so sorry. that would be rip the jacker :wink:
- hidden street weapons
- lock picks
- 100 ways to disappear sounds marvelous.
and then the world will be miiiine. mwaaahahaha :twisted:
Contrary to popular opinion... Nin-po or as most westerners refer to it, Ninjitsu... is not a particularly graceful art, its meant to be brutal and effective, if you are spying or a**a**inatiing you don't have time to dance around for 15 minutes b4 hitting a cat, you want to hit hard and fast and leave a dead body as quietely as possible, its about distraction and limiting confrontation, nin-po teaches alot more about hiding and using subterfuge to disguise an attack than it does about toe-to-toe strike fighting. If thats what you want try something else... years of experience ahve taught me that the best martial arts to learn as a basis for real time physical confrontation on the street are muay thai, any of the eskrima systems (personal favourites), jujitsu(gracie or otherwise), boxing.... other slightly more left field military combat systems like savate and systema are nifty as well.
As far as lock picking go, the whole movie vibe of pulling out a leather pouch of picks and within seconds opening a door is bullshit, utter bullshit... I've read a few (auto)biographies of former professional thieves and the consensus is that the only effective way to get through a lock very quickly is to damage it, lock picks take time and good ones are extremely expensive. A (former)friend of mine from my hood, who funnily enough these days is a gangster with a long rap sheet, has an uncle who was a cat burglar for 15 years b4 he got nicked and did a 7 year bid... he used to teach us about his work and according to him stiff strips of celluloid for standard door locks pre-90s (lock technology since then gotten better) and a small cordless drill with a 5/6 inch titanium bit will open pretty much any bolt. The book might be helpful if it gives tips on bypa**ing hightechnology computerised locks, but mechanical bolt locks.... all you need is time and a bit of focus or a master key which are apparently quite easy to get.
Hidden street weapons? silly and pointless, the street is full of weapons, bricks, poles, dirtbins, bottles etc... now prison weapons, thats some interesting shit, how to make a take bits of similarly shaped shards of broken gla** and then tape them together in such a way that the smaller bits form a spine so that the big bit (of the shiv) is strong enough to puch into the human chest cavity a few times but still brittle enough to snap off so you can dispose of the handle, also which type of tape is best to use so that you minimise the chance of prints.. if you not gloving it.....
On a related tip, if you haven't got gloves handy, coating your hands in superglue will do the trick... bitch to get off though.
