  1. yes the pressure points


  2. Answer : You watch too many cartoons. Get real.

  3. The reality is: no.  There aren't any secret magical combinations of touch that can cause a person to become completely immobilized.  The kung fu nerve attack you see on Kung Fu Panda or Crouchign Tiger, Hidden Dragon are not real, but they are based on actual physiological phenomena known as pressure points.  There are places on the human body where nerve crosses bone or artery crosses muscle that can cause intense pain or unconsiousness when the correct amount of pressure is applied.  There is a great book by Master Hei Long called Dragon Touch which outlines these places and what the affects can be.  

    Methods of self defense is not to be taken likely, as nerve damage, brain damage, paralysis, and even death can result from improper application of any martial art

  4. yes there are

    hit the pressure points or the spine

    but you would need to be incredible accurate to do it unless you hitting the spine

  5. Omg I saw that movie! No, I don't think so. Movies always mess up the truth.

  6. i personally belive there isnt but the question should be is it poss to hit someone in them to win a  fight the last vid i saw by that dilman fake need him to hit 3 places at once to cause knockout/death well imagine you walk home find your wife being rapped by a man and his mates do you think your head will be cool enough to hit all the points at the same time? and what happen if they wear thick clothing, maybe you can do it but for self defence dont bother( matt thornton once wrote in mai that a very well known pressure point guy told one of his reps that if fighting a g*y man hit him in the same points you would a female!!!! enough said i think)
