I know Tajirii is hardly the first or most famous to do the "spitting mist in the face" thing but as I just watched a match of his, I used him as an example.
How exactly did he spit the mist in the face? The obvious answer is that he had a capsule of some sort which he cracked and then spat out but when you see the amount that was being spat out (woof, woof etc.) it would have to be one big bastard of a capsule. Does anyone know for sure how it was done? It's one of those minor things that's been bugging me recently.

All Japanese people are born with a special gland in their throats that allows them to spit out this multi-colored "mist". They activate it by gently massaging their throats right before they spit. Don't they teach anything important in schools anymore?

As gross as it is, I think they hold like a condom full of liquid in their mouths.

Its not really a capsule, more like a packet. Most mist users prefer to wrestle the whole match with it in their mouths, but I've heard of it being kept in the turnbuckles or letting the referee hold onto it until the time is right.

I saw Tajiri do it at a house show right in front of me. Basically he had a special little zipper pocket sewed into his tights. When he was face down on the outside he unzipped the pocket, and quickly slipped the mist packet into his mouth. He groggily makes his way up to the apron and then spits the green mist out.
and basically because it's a zipper pocket if he accidentally bursts the packet it won't be too much of a mess (if any)

Really wish I didn't read this thread. The mist was one wrestling secret I didn't want to discover the truth about.

I loved the Hogan/Killer Khan match where Hogan blocks Khan's mist and Hogan rubs it in Khan's eyes. Makes it seem so deadly. I'm disappointed Khan didn't last that long.

It's kind of like when you see Penn and Teller tell you how they just done a magic trick, part of me wants to change the channel so it remains "magic" but the nosy bastard in me needs to know. |

I remember once, when Kwang tried to use the mist on Taker, just for it to not only be no-sold, but for Taker to use the mist on HIM. As a young man, I thought it was the COOLEST f***ING THING EVER!! And here is the match in question: www.youtube.com/watch?v=btlRL1DlVKg |

I literally watched Rey vs. Tajiri yesterday and was wondering this exact thing. Mystery solved.

When you were about to lose in battle, but you had a special saved you could do the mist and get a chance to attack and/or recover. |

I know this is a joke, but I think The Great Kabuki, the guy who invented the Asian Mist and who used a lot of Ninja imagery, took the idea from a apparent ninjitsu where they would make a concoction of water and some strange materials that when mixed that was harmful only to the eyes, carefully drink it and if they got caught and had to blind a guard to kill him, would do the neck-pointing thing to puke up the mist and spew the blinding water into their eyes. Again, I think that might have been where it came from. |

Yeah, but Penn and Teller can show you how they do a magic trick and it still looks like magic. |

I think Gary Hart talked about this with Kabuki and Muta at some point. If I'm remembering correctly, yeah, it was an non-lubricated condom filled with kool aid powder and just enough water to allow it to travel more freely.
