Marines punch, kick, disarm and throw during MCMAP demo - Marine Week St. Louis 

"Sir no no I have a wife and kids...step back."So much emotion lol

"Sir no no, I have family kids" Lmfao he said it with no emotions

Wow the acting is top notch.

Sir no no please I have a wife and kids You can tell he poured hit heart and soul out when saying that😂

Their pleads don't seem very convincing to me...

Marines are badass, glad you guys are allies and not enemies.

The gun has to be that close . Never let a person with a gun get away from you. The closer the better. Two feet away and your in a bad situation.

I love the MARINE CORPS!!!!

MCMAP is a program designed to be easy to learn and lethally effective. It incorporates efficient, simple actions from a variety of martial art sources. A Marine doesn't have 5 years to spend learning a fancy martial arts program. A Marine also needs to be able to kill. Marines have to transition from being a civilian to being a lethal combatant on the field of battle in 1 year or less. These demonstrations were mostly techniques for disarming and controlling someone. The rest you didn't see here are the techniques to kill with no weapon in seconds. When I served in the 80's you weren't even taught submissions because submission aren't particularly useful in close combat. It was all kill. Due to the need to deal with civilians more in a combat theater where you can't just kill anyone who mouths off, they added submissions. These demonstrations were also slowed way down so the civilian spectators could see the movements of the technique. There are plenty of videos online where you can see just how fast and efficient the techniques are when done at full speed and near-combat force.

What most of the commenters don't understand is that the military trains these techniques over and over again until it's ingrained in their muscles. The reaction time on these guys is actually incredible and though and experienced fighter might be able to counter, these techniques are more than enough for general combat. These guys are out to kill. Not maim or knock out, they are out to kill the enemy.

I love the perspective the go pro gives to this..please use it more

Marine Week in St. Louis Missouri was one of the coolest things I ever went too. Hopefully you all plan another one.

Nice show :) My respect to all Marines! Nice greetz from German Navy.

Thanks I needed that

Oorah!!! Semper Fi! I Honor your service to our Great Nation! God Bless You, America and the Corps!

this is like ethan from heavy rain level of acting

Very good demonstration! Well done. 0:40 was a flawless execution.

Much appreciated.

Broo there a marine corps channel, you know im subbing!!! Hoorahh

Badass as usual. Cant expect less when your watching Marines, cant wait to join :)

My new favorite!

its awsome that marines are being tought a martial art. it just gives them a more advantage over the enemy. even though the odds are very low that they would have to use it becouse they are already well equiped and are quick to the triger, but it still helps.

great training

you literally just described me dude, glad to know im not the only one

@yidox4 valid point, thank you for bringing that up. In the first place MCMAP ''could'' be effective for all Marines if they were to train on a daily basis. If you were a Marine you would know that ALMOST all just train to get their belt and then they forget about it for years and they never practice anymore, so how is that going to help them when they are on a combat situation? Also, most of the techniques are hard to perform on a real fight, so thats why I dont encourage trying to execute them

MCMAP has some pretty efficient techniques. There are still plenty of valuable techniques from many arts out there like silat or Jeet Kune Do. MCMAP will most likely continue to grow and become more effective and efficient not that it isn't already efficient. I hope they can least teach LINE techniques at some time during the curriculum. it's too valuable a system not to teach. When I join the corps and hopefully become a martial arts instructor trainer I want to teach my marines stuff I've learned from my martial arts training like the split sector from Kali and JKD or some devastating moves from Kali or Silat like kneeing the back or guntings. parry and salute to wristlock or knee.

nice film.

Man:* holds robber at gunpoint* Robber:pls no Kid next to them: hehe

God bless!

Semper Fi Brothers!

"MCMAP saved my life!" said no one, ever.

Awsome

Cool stuff

You can go now! I go in August and I'll be 18 then but I'm 17 now.

Nice video Jimmy! semper Fi

you guys should come to FL and do a marine week.

Don't bring a fist to a gun fight.

MCMAP is going to be one of my favorite things about boot camp.

GO Marines!!

i ❤️❤️Marines hoorah I want to be a marine when I grow up

"Oorah!!!!!!! DON'T F***WITH A MARINE"

That’s awesome to let the kids see

You know you are above that. So far you don't even have to reprimand him really

There are quite a few comments about the techniques demonstrated here. Keep in mind that these techniques were meant to be demonstrations for civilians. In other words, they were catered to situations that civilians would most likely face and not necessarily to what military personnel would face in combat.

I was with India Company, 3/24 from late 2002 to 2005. Oohrah!

My city!

training is there if you want to learn it...hands up shoulder width apart, pivot of your right foot, using your right tricep to deflect the weapon offline..then its a struggle to gain control...usually grabbing the handguards and throwing your left elbow over the weapon synching it under your armpit and pulling it away..

Semper Fi

Can't wait to learn more, at the moment I'm a tan belt ninja :)

Is that the Washington monument in the background? Fucking beautiful.

This looks like something we should have learned in bootcamp

Gotta love MCMAP! ;)

@Pedrobko So would you say a civvie training in Judo for example at a good school for a year would be better versed than your normally trained US marine? How long is the training as I'm aware you all have to gain a certain belt?

Nothing is hotter than a Marine.

@xPFCCHARLESx MCMAP looks great, pretty simple and useful, is it also for civilian selfdefence?

@realIBeliX There are some MCMAP schools, but not too many. It's just like other martial arts, so you can learn from other places.

Good

Every one of those kids bought MGS3 afterward.

I'd be more scared if someone was that close with a knife.

@realIBeliX except on the second gun one you twist the gun the opposite way right?

Well I'm glad I am not alone you guys in DEP yet? I am set to ship to boot camp July 7th

@klingeljman He pulled the slide back to visually verify wether there is a round chambered or not.

Yo , im 17 too , joining the Marines in 2 years time !

he triangled them, not crossed. it keeps your knees together and locks it into place just as well. i don't personally use the triangle variation, but it does work as well.

That's some good dang gone training!

im right their with u. i turn 18 sept. 25 im join up this summer though.

Gracias esto me servira en mexico, aqui la cosa esta muy fea por si me asaltan sabre que hacer gracias

That's fuckin' awesome. LOVE the helmet cam perspective!

We have a condition one badass alert. I repeat, we have a condition one badass alert. OORAH! Semper Fi Marines!!!

Could you make a video on how to align rank insignia. I'm in JROTC and I do not know how to align my ranks on the utility uniform. Please and thank you

The fact that this was roughly 2 months from 9/11 is kinda insane

"sir pls no no i have wife and kids, Sit down." everything whit a blank face

marines are so badass

Observant kid trumps the marine and wins the day with the car door story,turns and walks like a Boss :-)

@carloslg83 oh. thanks

0:29 heavy rain levels of acting

Fuck yeah! I love those moves, I'm gonna start practicing right away! this is good stuff.

One mind any weapon Marine martial arts

This is where the undercover cop in SQUIDGAME learn how to disarm the gun from the pink soldier. Thank you Mr. Marines for helping him but you should also teach him how to stay alive if gun is pointed at a distance.

I'm familiar with a few of these moves.

I need to learn that ;_;

*beats the shit out of guy* "drop your weapon" haha

*"Boss... Try to remember the basics of CQC."*

thats sergeant gomez! he's my recruiter now oorah!

amazing stuff, now i learned how to break a choke hold ? :D

Yeah my uncle is from the marine he show stuff like that

There are people your age that have already deployed and have been back. Enlist now if you want to be a Marine.

I was only in the army 😢

@jlucguerrier agreed.

Good Luck!!! I got two years left =)

all members of the Marines and Army no matter what nationality deserve respect. Many disrespectful comments on here. Alot of BS here on which regiment is superior. Many people on this comments board are into dick measuring, both they don't realise that both the army and marine have their specific (and different) functions. The best battle is the one you can prevent. IF you must do battle, particularly with vastly superior numbers, then it's all about the silent (often lethal) efficiency with specialist expertise; this is often beyond the realms of the marine and army regiments: this is where SEALs, Spetsnaz, SAS are required.

we'll still git ya

this type of tactic is actually easier to do with a rifle, what you do is push the tip of the rifle to the side with your back and roll down the side of it as you are rotating toward the attacker in which you then take control of the rifle.

@UvsBC well then there is no close combat technique in the world that could help you take him down; but luckily, only few people who havent received professional training are smart enough to stay at a distance. however, when that happens, you'll can improvise. and mcmap also teaches you to use your surroundings as a weapon

My brother(marine) does that stuff to me all the time. It sucks. I wish my arms would pivot both ways

We will never know....

Basics can defeat your assailant more then the advanced moves! Timing is the key essential to any hand to hand situation! But the key most proven thing in defeating your assailant/apponent is PRACTICE,PRACTICE,PRACTICE! But also having a few other tricks up the sleeve does t hurt as well! Every practitioner should practice enough that when using these techniques it should feel like a second nature ...

I was expecting at least one nutshot

This is far superior to what they taught us in 1975. Hand to hand combat shouldn't be confused with martial arts. One is a sport, the other is life or death and isn't about self defense but killing an enemy with one's hands and feet or he will surely do that to you. Hopefully, Marines will learn to target and break stuff if it comes to hand to hand and that is simple to do. The toughest, fastest and meanest guy on the planet still has eyes, throat, collar bones, ear drums and joints that are every bit as vulnerable as they are on anyone else. The real thing is ugly and something that will put you in jail if you use it outside of war or can't prove absolute necessity. Intent and injury are what wins in hand to hand.
