Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: The Game of Human Chess
Please visit www.AthleticBodyCare.com for all your athletic skin care needs! This is a short attempt to capture the beauty that is the martial art of brazilian jiu-jitsu in the world of mma and on the tatame. There is so much out there, that if I used everything, it would be many hours of footage. This is my video submission towards the Athletic Body Care video sponsorship contest for 2010. My name is Terry Ng and I am a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Blue Belt based out of Toronto, Canada. I love competing and training. Having the registration fees for tournaments covered would help me a great deal to be able to go out to different places to train and better my jiu jitsu game more often. I want to compete against the worlds best one day on the biggest stages of jiu jitsu. But to get there and develop, I need to train with and face the worlds best. Please help me get there! Please support me by viewing the video and sending it to others as well

@dels323 nah, under sixteen white, yellow, orange, green…
@dulzo It’s based on ‘The Ecstacy of Gold’ by Ennio Morricone from the Good the Bad and the Ugly Soundtrack with Edda Dell’Orso singing.
Someone’s added a hip hop beat, which ain’t an improvement.
what is the name of that song?
I’m supposed to start training in this maybe next week. I’m so excited! That training looks rough, though.
Name of the guy at 1:28 any one know?
Please tell me the name of the guy at 1:28 .
Been looking for his name for a few weeks
magnifique wonderful………
i love this video with a passion
@pcjudosambo i said champ u muppet
@callum828 i said a champ and he aint a champ wot he is, is a pap tht is to scared 2 lose his “worlds best title” so he wont fight in ufc
@lusby16 Fedor Emelienenko, arguably the greatest fighter in the world ever.
sooo, where’s bibiano fernandez in this vid?
@giujob
Com respeito a BJJ, mas Sambo pra sempre
@lusby16 Once again, you are wrong. Recorded use of arm bars have been dated more than 2,500 years ago – it was part of Greek Pankration. Modern use of arm bars, triangles or ude garami (aka Kimura) has not only been part of Japanese jujutsu but has been part of Judo since it’s founding. Great judoka Kimura has submitted Helio Gracie (founder of GJJ) using ude-garami (hence it’s name is used for this move). A Few judo greats Fedor, Oleg T, Yoshida, Komuro, Mike Swain. You’re a waste of my time.
@pcjudosambo wot r u even on about! im not discussing the origins of the word brazilian jiu-jitsu ! wot im saying is the arm bar is known as a jiu jitsu move across the world! o and btw judo/sambo is shit compared to jiu jitsu! name one champ tht is a judo/sambo specialist ?!
Nice song! How can I get a hold of it?
@lusby16 arm bar is a bjj move? you must be 13 or something, because you have no history knowledge of Martial Arts. There is a REASON why it’s called Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu …. JIU-JITSU! Last time I heard, JiuJitsu is NOT a Brazilian word, so JiuJitsu is not a Brazilian word, hmm, it must have came from somewhere…
do your research:
compilation of ancient arts from China / India > Japanese JuJutsu > Judo > Brazilian JiuJitsu
… our youth is so dumb these days, unbelievable…. sad actually.
@pcjudosambo doesnt matter who taught u it, an armbar is stil a BJJ move
@pcjudosambo lol WE ALL KNOW WHO FEDOR IS hahaha judo is jujitsu btw …
@lewiszim If you have never trained in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, then you cannot make your comment. Unfortunately, this video showed nothing of the mindset of a BJJ champion. What he means by “Human Chess”, is that BJJ involves strategies and outsmarting your opponent. Most competitors know the same moves, so it becomes more of a game of strategy and who can do the right move at the right time. Sounds familiar? The complexity of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu can only be explained by a black belt.
2.20 SIIIIICKKKKKKKK I will try that on class tomorrow, hope I don´t break my neck.
any1 know if the belt ranking for an adult is the same as a teen 15 and under at bjj???
If you are one of the 3 who didn’t like this video, I hope next time you jump on a bike it’s missing a seat…
Brazilian Jiu jitsu, the best sport on the planet, awesome video, really motivating, cant wait till my arm injury is healed so i can come back to training
1:48 that’s Fedor and Fedor is not a BJJ practitioner. Although, yes, many techniques are alike (in Judo/Sambo and BJJ) but the “teaching method” is completely different. Fedor is a black belt in Judo and a Master of Sports in Sambo. Very nice video though, props!
