Help me convince an unexperienced know-it-all

[masato@4nzix**]

Hey all

I just recently posted this awesome pic on my FB:

...a friend who has never rolled or even really watches MMA is trying to convince me that he would just fall back as hard as he could and would escape. (yeah - one of those guys )

I am having a hard time convincing him of the futility of this 99% of the time.

Any vids someone can help to show that his awesome escape technique wouldn't work?

He is convinced it would just KO the guy and would break the hold, but I really don't know what to tell him besides 'nuh-uh!' lol

thx

Choke him and let him backflop you. That'll show him.

It may hurt but wouldn't KO anyone, plus its hard to do as you are passing out.

Well searching "rear naked choke escape fail" brings up a creepy fetish video.

I really didn't want to see someone's mom sans shirt choking Vladimir Putin but whatever.

Goddamn youtubes.

I like Mike's idea better.

That is a pretty awesome pic. Being a father of a two year old, I anxiously await his introduction into the world of Brazilian Jiujitsu.

As for the back flop, it would hurt, but in an adrenaline filled situation I wouldn't count on it as an effective way to escape getting choked. If you know this guy personally, invite him to the gym.

invite said know-it-all to a class..............

see gerald harris vs maiquel falcao

Simple start the choke on him same as the picture and see if he can get out. If he cant he is screwed. Even if he did fall back as long as you dont hit your head (which a experienced guy shouldnt, that why we train maeu kemi) and the choke is in place he is going to sleep.

ive seen some MMA fighters try to face plant the person who has their back in this position, cant really remember it working that well tho.


i dont bother arguing with ppl that dont train about what works and what doesnt, its kind of pointless.


if you try some dumb escape like that you better hope it works because you have likely pissed off a guy who is about to have you out cold in a few seconds.

Great picture!

Don't know if this is of any help to you, but I figured I'd post it.

I'd just convince him to go to a class and let him tell the instructor about it.


Love the photo tho.

In before Frank Trigg joke

Considering I'm a 180 lb guy, I think falling backwards with a little girl on my back would break the choke

- Suplex him over the table
Kurt Angle Style:icon_twis
Or you could put him to sleep

Well in the street you would be landing on broken glass and needles, so I imagine the swift onset of HIV would break the grip.

Didn't Rodriquez do a back flop on Garcia in ADCC? If I remember right it did shake Marcelo up a bit. On teh street it may have been game over for Garcia
