Seriously now, let me start with EMPI:
The final sequence of hooking block, double palm heel movements, through to the end of the kata:
The REAL bunkai is defense against alligator attack!
First you deflect off the snout, then you prise open the jaws, once, twice, thrice! Then shift in, grab the tongue with the back hand and smack the upper snout out of the way with the right. Then shift in again and grab said tongue with the lower hand holding the upper jaw out of the way with the upper hand. Jump and spin, inverting said alligator inside out and smacking him down onto the ground. Then back up twice, wiping the slime off your hands with the 2 retreating knifehands.
THAT is the TRUE bunkai for the end of EMPI!
Next?
