It’s a hand slap game. Palms of the hands on bottom try to slap the back of the hands on top before top hands are jerked away.Can be very painful…

I wouldn’t have gotten that. Glad you guys comment!!!

Used to play this game all the time especially with my brothers. I recognize that look of nervous anticipation – and the look of imminent victory in the guru’s eyes.

When you can snatch the pebble…nah. I have a better idea.

What is the meaning of this?

The meaning of life? Pain!

I know what they are doing is ‘slap hands’ but

Man I loved Kung Fu the TV show. This is the intro.

the pebble thing is at- .34 as a youngster and again at 1:43" time for you to leave."

This game is similar to the Zen Buddhists’ “What is the sound of one hand slapping (sic)?”

I liked the gag Gabe Kaplan dropped on that show. I forget the whole setup; but it involved Kwang-Chai expressing embarrassment because some thug swiped the hat off his head and so the thug’s horse could defecate in it. “So who was embarrassed,” asked Master Po, “you or the horse?” “Thank you, Master,” Kwang-Chai replied. “By the way, I was wearing your hat today.”
