Some how I got this stupid gift catalog in the mail and it had this ad.  I just had to post it here to see what you guys would say.

"Advanced Combative Tactics DVD
Item No: 80955
Price: $69.98
Item is in stock

At first I didn't believe it. A martial arts "lab geek" developed a new SCIENTIFIC fight system--The ACT System. Tap into your body's devastating "natural" fighting instincts with this Advanced Combative Tactics DVD. It's easy-to-learn, and there's no complex moves. This system bypasses the part of the brain that causes "freeze-up." This DVD sounded way to good to be true. -But then I heard that the U.S. military Spec Ops trainers love ACT because what Shannon Stallard discovered in the biology lab has created a new way to quickly train men to fight like wild animals that instantly bypass the "fear factor" and get the job done in a split second. Almost no civilian has access to these secrets right now, but since they have been used in "hot-combat" zones, you can bet they will work for you. Shannon stunned the martial arts world by expertly combining his vast knowledge of how the human brain functions under stress with his years of astonishing martial arts success. The ACT program was specifically developed to address "brain freeze." If you freeze up like a deer-in-the-headlights at that critical moment when your family is depending on you the most---all is lost, my friend. Here's just a taste of what you'll discover: a simple secret that forces your brain from "victim" to "predator" mode; the amazing trigger your brain needs to switch from shock to decisive action; numerous quick releases and escapes---making it nearly impossible for anyone of any size to hang onto you; why turning or back away from a "haymaker" punch is the stupidest thing you could do; an easy trick to adding massive raw power to your strikes; brutal preemptive strikes; how to take advantage of an attacker's "weak link"; and a LOT more. If you ever wanted the skills and knowledge to walk the streets, knowing you can "take care of business" if need be, don't miss this opportunity. 60 minute DVD; 35-min. CD. "

Reminds me of the 'bar fighting' educational DVD set, or Steven Hayes 'how to release the ninja inside you'

Self-help books definately have thier place... but I dont want to learn how to FIGHT from a book, or a DVD. For that, you need to actually fight.
