- mschuster91 9y agoYou don't need muscle mass. All you need to understand as a smaller person is how to use two things to your advantage: 1) your own low mass, which makes you by definition more agile than your opponent 2) the kinetic energy of your opponent. It takes training, yes, but given that I've seen a 1.65m pixie cop bring down a 2m Russian hulk in a bar fight, alone, in 15 seconds, many movie scenes are not that unrealistic.
- Boothroid 9y agoThe exception that proves the rule. They often show tiny women winning in tests of strength! It's ludicrous and insulting to the audience, almost as much as the wisecracking black guy stereotype. When was the last time you saw a black guy in a film that wasn't all tough/street etc?
