I personally saw a street fight last night and this guy kicked the agressor in the chest with a side kick and it ended right then and there.The dude went down and had the wind knocked out of him and didn't know where he was. Well the guy that kicked him studies Tae kwon do.For years I have heard tae kwon do is useless and its all about brazilian jujitsu. I guess the tae kwon do does work after all.

Fight with someone who can not fight then the answer is yes, Tae Kwon Do is than effective.
But the hardest effective kicks are from muay thai or dutch kickboxing.

imo Bullshit. Hardest kick is probably the side kick /turning side kick whatever its called

Not obviously the most effective.. but I would have to say the single hardest kick would be from a tkd fella. Mostly from the extreme momentum.

No fucking way dude. Kickboxers and Thai boxers have the hardest kicks. Look at the mechanics of a roundhouse kick. It's like swining a baseball bat. You torque your hips. You can't get half the power with a sidekick.

This is imo the hardest kick in the world if done correctly and with power.

relax and dont take everything so seriously. If a discussion about what type of kick someone thinks is the most powerful one annoys you then you need to lay down and relax or something lol.

Spinning back kicks are very powerful. It's easy to land it on the liver to.

I have never thrown a spinning back kick At someone so I cant say that I know. But Im under the imperssion Its hard to land them because the its pretty easy to see it coming if you know what you're looking at. But when they land It looks like a damn explosion lol.
