Status: Fake
Check out
this video of Monk Hai-Tank (wmv file). He's 90-years-old, but he still has "finger skill." Which means that he can stand upside-down supported by only one finger. The video obviously has to be fake. I assume they're supporting him with invisible wires. Special effects like this are pretty standard in kung-fu movies. (via

Again, here's how it works in the Real World: If you make an extraordinary claim, YOU have to provide the proof. Period. If I claim that I can fly under my own power, I have to prove it. You do NOT have to prove that I can't. Get it?
Simply repeating over and over the same old crap about how people in the East can do amazing things because...well, because of something or other that Westerners cannot understand is NOT proof. No matter how many times you repeat it or how many times you rephrase it. Throwing around terms like "Chi" or "Shaolin" isn't proof of anything either. Sorry. You have to do better than that.
