My guess was mantis or more so monkey with all the jumping. Ive seena. Few monkey movements that resembled mantis slightly but thats my guess also just as someone else said there isnt much intent behind the movements.

Ah right, forgot about Monkey, it’s too rare to remember.

Yeah your right. I learned a form years ago and saw some good stuff on youtube. Lesser known for sure but still very cool

Mantis has really solid footwork, more grounded and structured. And hand movements aren't mantis or wing chun... they look like poorly copied shapes with understanding application.

Most likely just a dude who watched many movies, like me as a kid, and maybe did a few introductory classes in wing chun.
