these are by FAR your better vids!! I get so tired of everyone just bitchin' about everyone else on YT. you have really a really interesting prospective on a culture most people have limited exposure to. stick to that. the other crap is such a waste of time

very interesting. Funniest bit is when Victor points at the challenger's bottom with an arrow. I wander what the average lifespan of a sumo wrestler is...35-45?
speedyconkiwi 2008-07-16
Haha nice!! I always wanted to go to one of those someday, must be fun!!
12:20-12:40 is my favorite part.
adorianvlad 2008-07-16
Well, speaking of which, as long as you didn't sneeze during that time, you've got to had fun!
But I still imagine the loser wrestler is even more frustrated than you are in this case.
No wonder so much prior preparation for a better focus, I reckon.

I would like to see Victor and Greg Solomon have a sumo match!
RoninDave 2008-07-16
Cool vid! This was before my time. I only got interested in sumo about a year and half ago.
RoninDave 2008-07-16
well, actually more than likely its baseball as anshin Tigers go nuts when they win. Nobody goes really crazy about sumo tournaments.
RoninDave 2008-07-16
He's right. Bouts can be over in seconds or last for a minute or more. It's very variable. I've seen bouts over in a blink of an eye when one sumo wrestler steps aside as his rival goes sailing past him and out of the ring.
missuscake 2008-07-16
hah Akebono may be a great sumo wrestler, but his latest attempts to be a pro wrestler, make me shudder...uggggh.
missuscake 2008-07-16
Ahh okay, I see
missuscake 2008-07-16
I couldn't really tell who won the first fight it looked like the champions hands hit outside first but I'm not sure.
RoninDave 2008-07-16
I find it more interesting than boxing where two guys beat the crap out of each other over and over and over again
missuscake 2008-07-16
SUMO!
UFGatorJenn 2008-07-16
That was really interesting, thanks for sharing Victor!

Victor,
Nice video.
(Did you a nose bleed in the seats you were in? :) )
ChristopherMast 2008-07-16
All that buildup for a fight that lasts less than 20 seconds? I'll never understand sports.

This is the first sumo wrestling I have ever watched. Glad you explained what the rules are. I got into it and the crowds excitement.
h1tm0nl33 2008-07-16
oh so true
adorianvlad 2008-07-16
Victor, I could not find in a brief search on wiki how long does a sumo actual fight last.
These ones were 10 seconds or so. Doesn't seem a bit too short, you reckon?
rodrigopetrucci 2008-07-16
Great video!!!!
ForFun808 2008-07-15
Football is to America as Sumo is to Japan.
ForFun808 2008-07-15
Damn that was hella interesting. Thank you for sharing your awesome culture Vic.

yokozuna has lost the game. yokozuna is always required to win the game.
