The man goes from being a ghost to being the new up and coming martial arts superstar in one movie. Phenomanal muay thai skills, and acrobatics. Can't wait to see what he does next! I find it funny that he was Liu Kang's stunt double in the Mortal Kombat movie.

This man is the single largest reason for morons who flood into my MT gym, assuring trainers and sparring partners that they "know Muay Thai", then get KTFOed. Oh, or the ones who get disappointed 'cause we don't do flips or throw flying elbows every two seconds, and then proceed to declare that we "don't have the real Muay Thai". GRRRRRR....I'm tempted to downvote this.

...but I won't, because he's got some damn entertaining movies.

Rembar you take martial arts too seriously, I mean why interfere with evolutionary laws?

Gotta say I have never heard of the guy but he seems to have a few moves. Not much of actual fight moves though. Can he do kung fu?

*sigh*, you're right, Farhad. I'm the one who has to clean up the blood, though, so...

geek? wtf.

Tony Jaa's got some even more over the top moves in his movies, like Ong Bak II where he jumps off a roof of a building to deliver a flying knee to the face of a man hanging from a rope attached to a hovering helicopter some distance away. Yea that was serious shit.

The single-shot (meaning no cuts) scene in "The Protector" where he fights his way up the stairs was AMAZING. I had goosebumps the entire time.

This guy does the traditional Muay Tai, or Tai Boxing. Not the MMA derivative. Im looking forward to this guy, and the guy who did Kung Fu Hustle doing more movies.

Its just funny, some people think that this stuff is great in combat, it is very high risk and delivers very good damage. He is always doing some crazy attacks, i wanna see him do more traditional close in stuff. Flying knees are great until that person moves out of the way.

I respect this style, just like Mok Gar though i wonder on its practical use. The stuff we see in movies isn't what he would really do if he had to use it (I Hope). Martial artist pride themselves on being able to fight and win with minimal effort.

Any way the music was great, and i Love martial Arts Videos! keep em comming!

I know nothing about martial arts, just that I like a good movie. Tony Jai has an astounding physicality and grace, but I don't imagine that many of these moves would be terribly useful in an actual fight without a lot of skil, luck and very cooperative opponents.

Tony Jaa would be the first guy to say that what he does in the movies isn't 'real' Muay Thai - I've seen a couple of interviews with him where he's pointed it out. Some of it is a reasonably fair representation, but the acrobatics and the jumping kicks are much more akin to wushu, capoeira, free running, or tricking.

The guy has an undeniable talent, and I really loved Ong Bak. The Protector (aka. Ong Bak 2) had some great fights, particularly the 5-6min one-shot scene that southblvd mentioned. The problem with The Protector was that it was seriously malnourished on plot - even by the (not high) standards of martial arts movies.

dblasdon, no it was Ong Bak 2. Look for yourself: http://youtube.com/watch?v=U5BaKiW4oCg
It is also known as Tom yum goong / Ong Bak 2 / The Protector as Baqueta mentioned. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427954/

and yes the stairway scene killed!

The movie was called Tom yum goong in asia. In america, it was called The protector, and in the uk, warrior king.. at no point, has it been officially called ong bak 2(well, that was the working title for it in thailand). Tony Jaa is filimg another film, currently called Ong Bak 2 aswell, however, hasn't been released yet, or given an official name.

Anyone interested in this type of highly-physical/acrobatic martial arts owes it to themselves to check out Drunken Master 1/2 with Jackie Chan. Back in his prime he was really something to behold whilst in motion...

Can't wait to see Ong Bak 2 and to fast forward the first 40 minutes like I did in Tom Yum Goong.

I thought the music sucked. But that's just because I'm on the internet and you have to talk shit about everything on the internet.

Tony Jaa has some real talent, yes. Everyone can agree on that. But why would you pick Fall Out Boy as the music for this? Yes, it is a pretty good song for some, but c'mon...who thinks of that song when they see some guy kickin' the crap out of people? It's like playing Michael Bolton and break dancing to it...what would that be like?...I wonder...

This is great - like the best parts of his movies, without the horrible acting and terribly-edited 'plots'. He rocks.

I've been waiting for years for this guy to hit US shores. I never thought anyone could fill the void Jackie Chan left when he went hollywood...but I was wrong. Never has martial arts talent and acrobatics been so seamlessly combined. The movies are actually quite terrible by any standard, but watching Tony move is more than enough to carry the films. Tony Jaa is the real deal and just one of many reasons I love Thailand.

I could do this in my sleep. By which of course I mean I can only do that in my dreams. He makes me weep tears of joy at the human physical potential.
