Some old school jiu jitsu video from the 50s. Found it pretty entertaining.

You've got to love the guy beating down the guy who stole his chick. Completely hyperextends his arm and everything...

 

[Toujourpret]

Cool video. I had not seen that before.

 

[Prokofievian]

I love at the end how the skinny nerd lays that motherfucker out.

 

[Gabicho]

That flying armbar was sweet.

 

[Nickynoneck]

the self defense kata is the exact same we do for judo i love watching this stuff it shows how similair early bjj was to judo just they took to the self defense aspect while kano and the kodakan went the sport route .

 

[MonkeyNuts!]

[JohanH]

Those self-defence techniques are identical to JJJ :icon_cry2

 

[Calc]
