Talk:Amon/@comment-5041741-20120422053537

So, after watching today's episode I noticed something very interesting, that i also noticed when watching the final battle between Avatar Aang and Fire Lord Ozin. While Amon was "energy-bending" or "un-bending", whatever is the proper terminology, I noticed that his fingers were placed on some of the pressure points of the head, named "Shen Ting" and "Shuaigu" (http://www.livestrong.com/article/175106-pressure-points-in-the-scalp/). Each of those pressure points when stimulated are known to relief certain aches. However, the combination of the two might be a deadly stimulus for taking away ones' ability to "bend", may it be temporary or permanent. Therefore, the theory that Amons' claim of having met with a spirit who bestowed him with the power to "energy-bend" is wrong could possibly be true. Since he simply might be a Master Chi-blocker, and his back story has been made up for the meer purpose of inspiring non-benders.

This is a picture of the pressure points where Amon struck the victim.
