Teacher Breaks Up Student Fight With Impressive UFC Style Chokehold (video)
Crave Online ^ | 11/17/2016 | Cory Dudak

"Step off or you're gonna go to night-night."

"The following incident involving two high school kids duking it out in the classroom starts like so many before it. The rage builds to a boiling point between the pair until one finally snaps. A shoving match soon turns to fisticuffs, and then it’s time to hit the floor. I’ll be honest, the scuffle goes on entirely too long before any sort of intervention takes place. Once it does, however, it’s game over — or “night-night” as the teacher puts it.

Why no fellow students tried to step in and end this brawl isn’t immediately clear, but what is fairly obvious is that phones in the classroom aren’t strictly forbidden, as the whole thing is captured on video — complete with commentary — from start to finish. Perhaps the teacher was too busy looking up submission moves and their accompanying one-liners to notice. But hey, if there’s one positive we can take away with us, it’s that at least no one yelled “Worldstar” for the entire two-minute duration. That’s something we can all be proud of.

By the way, can someone tell that girl in the background what happened already?

Cue the lawsuit (by the “parent(s)”).

Exactly. The teacher and the school district will no doubt be sued. The teacher will be on paid administrative leave for the rest of the school year. The student (?!!?) will flunk out, but have millions to show for it.

Teacher is probably already up on charges to terminate him.

I love the so-called “sleeper hold.” Elegant. Simple. The carotid arteries will let you down every time!

That was a horrible choke, at least from a martial arts perspective. It was on the windpipe, that is dangerous. A real choke is on the carotid artery on both sides (and much tighter.) Although I’d have to say, it was so weak I doubt any damage could have been done. Did stop the fight though.

And will invest in gold teeth and bling bling and will have nothing to show for it in two years.

They may try to sue but I doubt it will go anywhere.

It’s to his benefit that it was recorded.

He went in calm, cool, and collected and stopped the fight. Period.

He wasn’t out of control and took no further action after it stopped and than was necessary to put an end to it.

I’d think the parents of the other kid would be glad for the intervention.

“Why no fellow students tried to step in and end this brawl isn’t immediately clear”

It’s pretty clear to me. Due to zero tolerance policies a student can be suspended simply for stepping in and trying to stop a fight, so why would anyone want to do that?

Agree. Not a very powerful application of the hold. Done properly, the head is forced forward onto the forearm by the shoulder and the clasping hands draw the forearm further in to compress the windpipe. Gets the opponent’s attention RIGHT NOW.

There is a counter but you have just a few seconds to begin applying it. I do agree it is dangerous as a collapsed windpipe is harder to reverse than a temporary interruption of blood flow to the brain. I believe I have also read that the throat physiology of African Americans makes them more vulnerable to this type of hold.

When I learned the hold in Marine Corps bootcamp these many decades ago, it was called the “naked stranglehold.” (Boot camp was full of colorful descriptive language - most of it describing various sex acts and references to one’s parentage.) I believe the proper name is arm bar chokehold.
