Measured Power

Body Slam

A Tito Ortiz body slam to the back measured about 2400 PSI of force across the opponent’s back.

Reaction Time

It takes a minimum of .25 of a second for the brain to react to a stimulus.

When a gun is point at a trained martial artist and the gun is within grabbing range, the martial artist can grab and deflect the gun within .12 of a second. This is half the time it takes the gun holder to react to the grabbing motion. TKDTutor Note: practically anyone can grab a gun before the holder can react; it is what the grabber has been trained to do after the grab that is critical.
