This is the kick I'm talking about . This is the kick that I did in the fight. But because He was running towards me an because I didn't understand timing at the age of 12. It forced me to kick sooner than what I should have and it jammed my kick. When people kick in doors they do not do running jump kicks like I did.
The kick landed on his sternum upper stomach. He was really mad after being kicked like that. I think of it like this. When I want to kick in a door, I won't be doing this kick.

A surprising amount of people pull off flying kicks in street fights.
I just think we have a very biased perception on them. So we discount them.
It is one of those circumstances where the training in the dojo doesn't reflect the dynamics of the street. So you are rarely training in a situation where you are engaging in some sort of running battle.
But street fights. Especially big ones. This can absolutely be the case. And then flying kicks become higher percentage.
But otherwise people legitimately pull this move off.
