Starting at 2:25 of video.

I've been using these chin attacks against half-guard recently and am enjoying them. I might actually try these patented Wolfman techniques. (But not the ones at the beginning where he's explaining that he didn't know she was married, even though I also like the look of those.)
 
Also you pull some of that someones going to get mad and a guy with a kneebar you just gouged in the throat isnt going easy on you. Please save some of this stuff for the street.

Not sure about legal, but it doesn't seem very nice. I wouldn't like using that on my teammates.
 
Almost none are legal for 2 reasons.

1 - They are spine/cervical much like a can opener. One is actually a standing can opener.

2 - Some involve strikes. Obviously you cant do that in BJJ.

These moves are illegal in wrestling as well, but I believe he is right, all of those are 100% legal in MMA minus the spine strikes.
 
How else do you plan on beginning to practice techniques?

The point is that it's often used to disguise that a move has an very low success rate against a resisting opponent.

The guy claims to teach "the next level of MMA", when his record is 1-3.
