I cant watch the video, but if it was a 'self-defense' oriented class and not an 'MMA competition' class, it very well may have groin shots promoted. In real self-defense situations, you can bet I wont think twice about blasting someone in the groin... when my wife took self defense classes there was a (rightfully) a lot of focus on groin shots and eye gouges. Anything to survive.
Well BJJ in it's original form was very much 'anything/everything goes' to be able to survive... Isnt that how the name 'Vale Tudo' for the tournaments came about and the legendary Gracie challenges started...?

This is funny. If this is the promotional video, imagine what they actually do in their classes...

yeah...that's not legal in competition is it? BJJ tournaments don't have nut shots...
