Here is the story of how we (Pete Brusso) got connected to the men who stare at goats...
In 2004 I got a call from John Sergeant from the BBC channel 4, who was connected to Jon Ronson. He wanted to know if I knew some about some military programs: MK Ultra and others. Some I knew of and others not so. I agreed to meet them in a few months and show them a few things. They were interested in psychic warrior stuff. Some of what they were asking about was more in line with Ki energy flow and such. They wanted to know if I could set someone on fire by touching them? "yes" I said. They asked if I could freeze someone by touching them? "no" I said. Then they asked if I could kill a goat by staring at it? "I don't know why I would want to as I have never had a goat try to kill me on the battle field", I said. We made an appointment to meet in a few months and I then went to work to set the stage to answer many of their questions.
Enter the Marines. I am connected to the Marine Corps Martial Arts program, as a subject matter expert. I get a chance to work with Marines on many levels and I visit Camp Pendleton often. I thought what a great setting to take these guys on base to immerse them into the Marine Corps culture with Marine Corp Martial Arts classes right around us. I also wanted to introduce them to the predator. The predator was the name that I used for the self-defense weapon before we called it a defender. Regardless, I wanted to expose them to the power of such a simple tool and how it fit into the concept of future warriors and Jedi Knights.

The crew, coming from England, and not being connected to the military, they never got many chances to actually get on a military base. I cleared this through the proper channels at camp Pendleton and we were escorted by public affairs. I took them to an area that we use for Marine Corps martial arts training and we had a class of Marines training right behind us. I introduced Jon Ronson to the predator first by using one of my own gentleman and then using the predator on Jon Ronson. I explained to Jon Ronson that the only way to experience the tea was by tasting it. He had some objections, explained to me that it was fine and that he could watch the demonstration, but I said no. You must experience the predator (now known as the Defender) to be able to accurately write about it. I will put the link here for you to watch a cut down version of his experience. However, before I do that let me explain that we moved to a new location for the rest of the interview. You will see an example of Ki energy where I project my mind into him and then move him across the floor effortlessly. This is the kind of mental energy that Jedi Knights use and most martial artists completely understand; some even harness it.
