The crane kick is a fictionalized version of the Mae tobi geri (Japanese: 前飛蹴). The move was created by Daryll Vidal for the classic film The Karate Kid (1984).[1][2] The move is taught by the character Mr. Miyagi to Daniel LaRusso and eventually used in the final scene with his arch rival Johnny Lawrence. The move involves a one-legged karate stance and launches into a flying jumping kick. [3] The movie became synonymous with karate in the United States and helped popularize the martial art in that country.[4] The kick is shown multiple times in the Karate Kid franchise, including the season five finale of Cobra Kai, where Daniel uses the crane kick to defeat the main antagonist of The Karate Kid Part III (1989), Terry Silver.
