Crane Kick

The most devastating move in all of martial arts. Perfected by Ralph Macchio in the original Karate Kid. If done correctly, the Crane Kick will assure victory for all who use it.

The Crane Kick should only be used in life or death situations, or in youth karate tournaments.

crane kick fever

the period of time after the release of The Karate Kid where every red-blooded American boy had a man-crush on Ralph Macchio and routinely practiced the crane kick

I remember walking through LAX in '85, the heart of Crane Kick Fever and seeing kids from all walks of life practicing their crane kicks.
