Backflip out of a single leg pick

A while back I posted a few articles on improbable moves that actually worked for folks in contests. Well now, you have to watch this. Maybe the craziest thing I've ever seen. The craziest part - it worked!

UPDATE: Here's the full match that this clip was taken from. Very entertaining wrestling!

Ok, who's ready to practice that at class???

    That was crazy. Cool, but crazy. I'd never pull anything halfway like that in a Judo shiai...sorry, but I don't get to risk my limbs and joints just to win a sporting competition.

    The lines between Judo and Wrestling really start to blur at this level, though, eh?
