And besides - the original poster never even mentioned anything about the usefulness of the art, just the strength and power Wing Chun can generate in the human body. Why impose your definition?

I suppose you could reply by extolling the practicality of arts like Muay Thai, Krav Magda, wrestling, BJJ, etc. That's fine - those are all outstanding disciplines, with many outstanding practitioners. But I find blanket statements such as "actually, it's kind of garbage" to be insulting, and, quite frankly, exceedingly ignorant.

blah blah balh whatever. Ever notice that the ONLY time arts such as kung fu and aikido work is in a demonstration. They're pretty much outdated and useless. I just don't understand why people see them as so beneficial because they date back thousands of years. Have we not learned anything in the meantime? Was engineering and medicine more advanced than it is now? No. The triangle aint even all that strong. When the last time you saw a triangular bridge?
