I’m guilty of assuming he was a drinker based on the slurred speech over the past year. Never even considered there could be a legitimate medical reason.
I never saw the disclaimer, but I usually skip though the intro.That's why he had to finally put in the disclaimer. He didn't want to keep addressing that.
Have'nt been following JY for quite some time. This is the first video i've seen in a while and the speech impediment is very noticeable. Although I have been somewhat critical of him at times in the past, I was never obsessive about it and I would never wish something like this to happen. If it is ALS hopefully JY will find the inner peace and strength to accept the inevitable.Couldn't help but notice his ongoing speech impediment over the past year and a half. He got to where every video had a disclaimer about it.
I'm a big fan of Yeager's work, certainly not everything he does.
Sad to hear this. I like his approach to this challenge.
I thought it was ALS or Parkinson's. Bad either way.I never saw the disclaimer, but I usually skip though the intro.
And he carries the Coin.I wish I could have taken a class with him or just met the man.
I still hope it happens.
He's a true martial artist, he doesn't teach people who to shoot, he teaches people how to fight.
He's up there with Clint Smith, a mentor for many well beyond the borders of the Unites States.
He thought many foreigners and reached even more people with his Youtube videos.
One of the very first to talk about guns, gear and training on Youtube over a decade ago.
Let's not forget his history with INGO (poster in the background, pic bellow).
Take a class if you can! Even if you don't think you like the guy.
You will probably change your mind.
That was a good night. I wish him well.
