I apologise for bringing this up again but I recall a recent thread on the Discovery Channel focusing on a sensei going for his 8th dan exam and the preparation it took.

My bad. I didn't download the clip at the time and now I can't seem to find the thread even after doing a search. Would be most grateful if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

Almost everyone is amazed by the old man but my heart is with Ishida and his son.

I've noticed that if you pause everytime the korean subtitles come up you can read the English ones.

I doubt there is one on the net. Remember you are watching it by less than legal means.

Only because we can't get a copy through legal means.

That makes no difference. I don't disagree with downloading by the way.

We refer to the part of the video where they tell of his son's death by cancer and how he promised that he would win the AJKC to cheer his dying son up.
