This is Desmond Tuck, a 6th degree blackbelt in the Goju Ryu style of karate. Amazingly, he has had both of his hips replaced/resurfaced... this is a must see...

    Great video. I am 4th dan in Goju (IOGKF)... it is always interesting to see how the same kata is performed slightly different with each branch of a given style of martial arts. Thanks for sharing this!

    Hey SJ, thanks for the look. Am I correct in that it takes 4 years to complete the 4th dan, 5 years to complete the 5th, and so on? So that means Des has 7 more years to get the 7th degree?

    I'm just amazed that he can move at all - both of his hips are metal on metal!
