I'm A BJJ Fanatic: John Danaher

[@TheDanielmeeks]

Stunning video. Need a Netflix documentary on the man.

[@stevena8719]

Unfortunately he is not enough of a minority to be featured on Netflix

[@imr3312]

Agree. Very deep. And very tru.

[@soggydoggy6260]

Drop it on the man haha 😂 Danaher (How he changed the game of BJJ)

[@WestcountryDude]

The most interesting dude in jiu jitsu.

[@ruechel]

besides Marcelo Garcia, the G.O.A.T.

[@pedrolima1790]

Sem dúvidas. Precisamos de mais Danahers.

[@JStack]

The camera angles, the music, the personal feel of John speaking one on one. Beautiful work 👊

[@supermikebrasil]

Beautiful! Loved the way you guys shot this footage. John is a living legend!

[@test_GOTO_RaidrpgDOTnet]

We lost a great philosophy professor and won the greatest BJJ coach alive today (still a philosopher, but mostly within his gym)

[@diegolopezzz18]

Danaher is absolutely my favorite figure in BJJ.

[@leadteks]

i could listen to him all day long

[@gabrieltribuzy4885]

This could be a day long and I would still watch an enjoy every single second of this mans wisdom. Tremendous.

[@superkatarsis]

I have such a hard time listening to this guy. Can you recommend anyone else with similar knowledge? Firas is also a little bit to obsessed for my taste.

[@gabrieltribuzy4885]

@@superkatarsis thats a hard one. Danaher is quite unique. Firas has a similar mind, tremendous coach too.

[@superkatarsis]

Gabriel Tribuzy I feel Danaher should work as an investogator for the FBI or something

[@kimgaugemusic]

wow, listening to him talk about the making of a knife gave me chills. The man is an inspiration.

[@b.k.7364]

Best jiu-jitsu related vid I've seen in a LONG time

[@impolitikful]

Jiu-Jitsu is addictive because it involves cooperative learning, exactly what western schools lack. Numerous studies by Deutsch show this simple fact: we like solving problems together instead of individually.

[@AlexElseyMMA]

John should come teach in London, lots of knife crime. Jokes aside this was simply epic

[@peterjanjanin9883]

Urban Combatives is a hilarious channel

[@zmabry69]

Love that I get his training on a regular basis, blue basement rocks

[@ztj95]

Dude, you nailed this video. Everything is top-notch!

[@andywithhelen5636]

Should show this to friends who are thinking about training jiu jitsu! Amazing work guys!

[@Range-Pro_1]

This video and Professor Johns’ explanation is amazing

[@qutaibabs1]

This guy is a legend coach . Easy to understand teaching

[@sauroquiming3190]

I like John expressed his words. He is genius

[@rubenquezada3999]

John presents an amazing philosophy to approaching things. Jiujitsu, life its truly incredible

[@TakedownBreakdown]

That was so awesome. I'm glad you posted this 👏👏👏👊

[@jwkolm]

In ice hockey, there is the holy trinity; Gordie Howe, Bobby Orr & Wayne Gretzky. What made Orr so great (besides his amazing skill) was he changed/revolutionized the position of defenseman - after Orr we now see defenseman joining the offense & scoring. He changed the game of ice hockey forever. John Danaher has done that for BJJ. He is a true gift to BJJ.

[@quinntolchin3080]

Beautiful job

[@BJJWorld]

Wow that was beautiful

[@philliprussell9441]

I could listen to him all day

[@brotendo]

Aside from the discrepancy in expectations and reality, don't forget that injuries and costs contribute tremendously to the high attrition rate. How does a white belt feel after training for maybe 2-3 weeks when he's taken down and hurts his ribs or his shoulder? Then he's out of the gym for a week or two if he's lucky, several weeks if he's unlucky. Then the student finds himself asking, "Is this what I'm paying $180-220/month for?"

[@anonymouse7095]

diesel828 love it or leave it

[@brotendo]

@@anonymouse7095 I've been training since 2003

[@brotendo]

@Snowman17 where did your comment go

[@inq752]

Same can be said for drug addiction.

[@brotendo]

Jake It's just an observation from training at different academies over the last 16 years. I've seen a lot of them come and go.

[@artemthetrain14]

Please turn the music up; I could almost hear John

[@unclewangg]

what a tremendous resource of martial arts

[@antufcti]

3:28 John Danaher plays Minecraft

[@c.schellenberger2587]

That’s the magic

[@andreemerzian418]

Truly fascinating

[@SamAfshinpour]

Amazing!

[@xcharlie15]

Legend!

[@jesse4739]

Hands down best Jiu~Jitsu coach on the planet 🌎 🥋 osssss

[@yodizzll]

JD is one of the deepest thinkers out there, but i think he overcomplicated one thing, the reason that jiujitsu is so addictive and yet has such a high attrition rate as he pointed out, is simply because it is both immensely fun and immensely difficult. very few activities are both of those things to the degree BJJ is. anyway, my 2c

Jiu-jitsu is like steel - John Danaher, 2019

[@granthogg2824]

Thankfully this man left academia and went into teaching.

[@FR-ty5vn]

Beautiful...

[@triocha233]

Why are we at the Opera ?

[@Skuffed_Skuff]

well said

[@NDayOnline]

Excellent video with awful audio balancing. Please consider cutting the music volume by 25-50% for future videos!

[@hhill5489]

It's the same as chess, but more accessible and entertaining for most people

[@Sunset1991P]

Powerful

[@robertcarter7981]

Dude 2:12 is a classic y’all can’t lie😂

[@stutteringdisciple1919]

John Danaher is Everyone’s dad in jiujitsu

[@ohmyafy]

He’s basically Voldemort

[@hanadphoto]

anyone know what the music in the first half of the video is?

[@fedor755]

Could you find the song? I believe I’ve heard it once in a movie, but I can’t remember and I’m not even sure if that’s true.

I was there!!!!!!awesome!!!

Praise God baby

[@ETiDeQuenVesSendo]

I live in Spain I pay 27€ a month for judo classes. How the f** can people afford paying 180$ a month for 4~5hours of BJJ a week?

[@Rawdiswar]

They make more money, simple.

[@Vesividad86]

only £63 where I live

[@ETiDeQuenVesSendo]

@@Rawdiswar even if I take into account the wage gap, sports are much cheaper here

[@Rawdiswar]

@@ETiDeQuenVesSendo Cool.

[@theItalianshamrock]

The price is crazy here in the USA... i cant afford it. Its $150 a month in my city. Hopefully when i move and get a new job i can afford it

[@matthiasrohkostkanal6406]

[@fuloran1]

I am not training to defeat my training partners, I am training to defeat my enemy. My training partner is not my enemy.

[@coolitnow0013]

Been training for close to 4 years been publicly saying what he's saying about BJJ being a evere adapting puzzle for 2 years now.Shared this idea with my current instructor he said he didn't agree with that perspective of Bjj.After watching this I've decided to seek a different academy with liked share view.Im leaving the plantation

[@philipdru4782]

if this were really true then intelligence would be a predictive factor for bjj success, but it isnt

[@boliussa]

@@philipdru4782 Maybe it is but there are different types of intelligence, A dancer for example typically has a type of mind where they can learn intricate dance moves even BJJ moves *very* easily.

[@theItalianshamrock]

@@boliussa my friend is a musician, plays guitar. Hes really good at bjj because he can learn intricate moves and enjoys the repetition of it. I play rugby, so im the opposite lol i just want to go 100% all of the time

[@davedave8608]

Osss

[@animadverte]

It would be more convincing if BJJ were still relevant in mma.

[@Djent7779]

When ever I kear a new move o think, wtf didn't I think 🤔 about that

[@savagemountainfilms3811]

Nice video, but Jesus Christ, all I can hear is fucking violins! Get a professional to mix your audio!

[@Nenad-ICXC-Shuput-GFAMMA]
