    With all the "deadly" techniques floating around, the 1990s and early 2000s were a heyday for questionable martial arts. Zero leverage, flashy kicks in point karate, no-touch knockouts, "ninjas" who could dodge bullets...you name it.

    A sampling of recent less-than-effective martial arts. Be glad we live in a reality based era:

    The children blowing thing, however, was pretty uncool.
