<p>Why oh why&#8230;.? Here we have a black belt breaking stuff demo&#8230;. and he chooses to break coconuts. Coconuts would be hard to break being round, because they would have a tendency to veer laterally when some kind of force is applied, especially, as in the demo, when they are placed loosely on a steel beam. Um, now I don&#8217;t know as much about martial arts as this 5th level black belt guy (notice the number of gold bands on his black belt towards the end of the clip), but you might want to practice your thing breaking performance in private before you demonstrate it to a television crew so it goes off without a hitch and you look really cool. But what do I know. He could probably kick my ass.</p>
