If there is no such thing as energy or Chi, what is going on in this video?

This is a pancrase video. One fighter is Japanese, the other fighter is Brasilian or Cuban or something like that. Something with South American Indian I think.

The men have been fighting for 3 rounds. This clip is the end of the 3rd round when both men are exhausted from the fight. Watch the video and try to understand or explain what is happening.

When you watch these videos? You can't focus like you are looking for a penny on the ground. You want to watch it while you "space out". Don't look for anything in particular. Sit there and wait for something to jump out at you. Watch it multiple times or over the course of days to get a fresh view.

The bell rings for the end of the round, but the fighters do not break up. Something odd looking takes place. I say it is a manifestation of chi or energy. What are some other opinions of what is happening?

30 Meg Xvid MPEG 3

(This is a big one. I wanted to let people get a feel for the fight before the actual interesting event takes place so there is a little of the end of the fight before the bell rings.)

You need to find a better format to encode things in.

hmmm

It looks like two men who are tired after a long fight, the bell goes, and they both congratulate each other for surviving and nullifying each others game, or something similar....or I guess there could be some mysterious metaphysics at play

It is Xvid. Just about everything you can find on the net these days is coming out in Xvid. All the TV shows released on the internet are Xvid. Do you use windows media player? There is a media player called media player classic that I use. It shows the Xvid movies no problem once the codec is installed. If you don't have the Xvid codec, then you can't see the movie.

Let me get out the video and give hints. You guys didn't see anything weird at all going on? It is not mysterious or supernatural or anything. It is right there in front of you. The reason that you don't see it is because no one ever told you before.

At 1:13 the whistle blows to stop the fight. The black guy does not let go at first. The ref tries to seperate them so the black guy rolls off. As he does the japanese guy rolls with him and rolls on top of him. Why? He didn't here the whistle? He doesn't see the ref or feel the ref pulling them apart? Why does he stick to the black man?

1:21 What is going on? The men are close to each other and they look like they are talking. Are they? The black man speaks portuguese and the japanese man speaks japanese. What are they saying to each other if they are talking?

Pause the video at 1:26 and look at the black guys face. Does the eye look interesting to you at all?

OK. Focus on the Japanese man. At around 1:29, the black man literally caresses the face of the Japanese man. Isn't that kinda weird for 2 fighters? Caressing each other? Watch the Japanese man from this point forward. His every move, every turn of his head, every move of his body. What does he want? What does he desire? Why? What happens at 1:38 and why does it happen?

You might want to look at the title of the video for a clue to what I think is going on.

That is all the clues I can give without explaining exactly what I think.

Have you ever experienced a heightened state of emotion?
It has nothing to do with supernatural manifestations. You are making large leaps in your deduction, albeit, bypassing logic.

whats happening with his eyes is he's turning his head while his eyes are locked on the japenese man............they are not turning all white if thats what you think.............if youre talking about the expression he's making, well, I suggest you partake in a fight such as this and see what state of mind you are in. I don't recall anyone suggesting that there is no such thing as chi. By the way, who won ?..............that was a mean A** kick the japanese guy got in.
