Have you ever wondered what the Fakest martial art is? The deadliest one? The most effective one?
Well I present to you the Martial Arts Iceberg. An expansive list of every single style of martial art you can imagine. And as we go down this iceberg style list things will get weirder, stranger, and even more insane. All the way from boxing, to Aikido, down to the delusional world of eagle dragon snake master himself, this is not your average stroll through the world of martial arts. This is the history, rules, lore, and everything in between for the legitimate and for the fakest of fake martial arts.
So get aboard OceanGate, and get ready to have your brain cells vacuum exploded. we're venturing into the obscure, the disturbing, and the utterly insane. So let's unravel the world of Bullshido, pull apart the Queensbury rules, and explore the deadliest forms of combat, and maybe even question our own sanity in the search for the fiver finger death punch. It's time to travel down the Rabbit hole. Welcome to the insane and wacky world of Every Martial Arts Style.

The guy who originally made the iceberg and posted it to reddit seems to have deleted his account so RIP to him. But full credit goes to whoever that was.
If you would like the google doc for all my sources for where I got my information from for each entry then feel free to email me using the about section on the channel page and I can shoot it back to you. In anycase over the next two days I will be updating the description with videos that I watched on each subject in order to write this thing. It's going to take a while so bare with me. @KARATEbyJesse and @SenseiSeth seemed to have particular inspiration for the person who originally created the iceberg, they have made videos on pretty much every Martial Art style in this iceberg so I highly recommened checking them out for even more in depth knowledge on them. Other than that a lot of research was just done through the first few websites on google search and compiling them using the videos listed below, so in that case, if I got anything wrong please feel free to let me know and I shall put any corrections down below also.
