Rear Naked Choke | How Does It Work?

[@lazarus8453]

i love your narrative lot its so clean and nice .

[@lordoftherims436]

My friend told me to do it to him. Held it for like 5 seconds. As soon as i felt him go limp i let go. He slumped on the floor. Not even 2 seconds later he was awake and standing. He said it didn’t even hurt and he didn’t feel it coming. I was wondering how safe it is if you let go immediately

[@imam-_-]

If someone passes out while getting choked & you hold it for 7 more second he may die. Holding it for couple seconds won't do anything serious but why risk it.

[@xJD88x]

@@imam-_- 100% NOT true. At all. I have a few videos of me holding chokes on opponent's for over 30 seconds in one case after they were out. It takes 4-6 MINUTES to kill someone that way

[@xJD88x]

If you let it go within 30 seconds, the biggest danger to them is cracking their skull if you drop them. 1-2 minutes and they might have some minor brain damage. 2-4 minutes is serious brain damage. 4+ minutes is where they could die

[@imam-_-]

@@xJD88x If it takes over 30 seconds after they pass out it means your choke wasn’t perfect & some blood went through. I said after 7 seconds one "may" die because there had been a case in Brazil where a 16 year old died because his opponent (35 years of age) held the choke for 7 more seconds after he passed out. Your brain cells will start dying within 1 minute after the supply of oxygen ends. But yes one may not die that early because completely stopping blood flow to brian with a choke is very hard to achieve.

Even a skinny girl 5'7 can be really deadly to a 6 foot guy if she climbs on him on his back performs a Rear naked chock it would take like 10 seconds until you start getting sleeping and how to get out of that? Don't get in a fight in the first place and if you do be cautious and keep your distance that's it's really important to learn self defence

[@xJD88x]

Sign up for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. We are there quite frequently. It's actually VERY difficult to choke someone who knows how to defend it properly.

[@onniruusunen9444]

true, but how did you end up in a situation that skinny girl got, to your back in the first place, and got the choke fully in?

[@shalevsaada7596]

You would be surprised how much people have lack of knowledge on how to fight​@@onniruusunen9444

[@Silentjustin06]

Glad this video explains what the choke actually does. A friend of mine decided he would sneak behind me and get me in a choke. He only did it for a few seconds but he hurt my throat in the process. I then told him he applied it wrong. I told him you can kill someone that way. He didn't know you pinch the sides of the neck to cut blood flow.

[@M.S.Fitness]

Did you kick his ass?

[@xJD88x]

The way your friend did it the risk is crushing your trachea. It actually takes more effort than you'd think. Even a perfect blood choke can take minutes to kill someone

[@Silentjustin06]

Yeah I used windpipe at the time I explained it to him. Trachea, I felt was to technical for the moment. I just wanted to get the correct information across on what the actual choke does and risk you take when you don't apply it correctly. Just in case he actually tried to choke someone for real.

[@scottwheeler2679]

This isn't what actually happens in a choke out. What happens is a nerve in the carotid artery senses the flow of blood to the brain. When the carotid artery gets compressed by about 60% the nerve senses it and sends a signal to the brain to redirect more blood to the parts of the brain that regulate life support systems. It also directs less blood to the frontal lobe to compensate. And so the brain shuts down activity in the frontal lobe and the person goes unconscious. Has nothing to do with the brain being starved. The brain prevents any such starvation with this redirecting of brain activity and the blood that is flowing to those parts of the brain. We can hold our breath for upwards of 2 minutes and deprive our brain of any new oxygen for that amount of time without losing consciousness. The choke takes 4-8 seconds because of this mechanism.

[@impala2004]

What happens to the brain when a person does not breathe, that is, unlike the rear naked choke, blood reaches the brain but does not have oxygen. Does this same mechanism happen? p

[@by8599]

Thanks for the video, do you think that repetitive chokes could increase risk for dislodging/disrupting plaques near the bifurcation? Or arterial dissections?

[@nickjones392]

The big question i was hoping he would have addressed.....is if you have to have compression on BOTH sides of the neck or just one side for it to work?

[@omarnahumvazquezvillasenor9751]

depends on your blood pressure

[@OMEGAMusic24]

1 side can work

[@xJD88x]

I have put people out by compressing only one side. It takes a lot longer though

[@kleezer1]

Damn this was dope thank you!

[@bigcheese9096]

Say a fighter locked in weakly and could only moderately compress on one side of the neck. Would that still be enough to pass out?

[@_Scipio]

no

[@ashleighvinson5801]

Yes. Well its happened to me anyway. I remember thinking " he's not positioned right". Then I woke up on the floor

[@masterfellayt]

My brother did that to me few weeks ago, but i didn't faint instead i got up and carried him off, but now my neck is still swollen and bruised and it's still getting worse because of summer heat

[@shyfly6560]

Got it, so aim lower when trying to finish my chokes.

[@tchevrier]

what happens if you don't have any blood flow through your vertebral arteries?

[@omarnahumvazquezvillasenor9751]

you just pass out a little faster

[@victorhenrique1974]

Very good. Thanks for sharing!

[@rdy8677]

my friend embraced me then pressed to the side of the neck, could that be dangerous?, and it was only 1 side of the neck

[@swisslandwonderfull9394]

How long it take to revive?? We must revive them or they revive on their own??if they don't revive how long it takes to die??

[@orca3894]

they just wake up in some seconds(like less than 30), no need to revive

[@omarnahumvazquezvillasenor9751]

3 to 12 seconds

[@omarnahumvazquezvillasenor9751]

nothing else will pass you out if you take more than 30 seconds you can kill him

[@charleslaubscher1085]

A vascular mechanism sounds plausible and very likely plays a role, but direct neurocompression is perhaps the more likely mechanism at play. Compression of the vagus nerves and perhaps even specifically the carotid bodies simultaneously on both sides, will result in a massive parasympathetic overload. This is potentially very, very dangerous. It catastrophically slows down the heart rate and perhaps often even causes complete cardiac arrest. Luckily this is usually done on young fit men for a very short time and they recover quickly. Do this on someone for too long, or on someone that has an underlying heart rhythm disturbance and death can result. It would be interesting to know how often this goes wrong.

[@TheFishFTW]

It almost never goes wrong. This is the safest submission there is as long as you let go when someone goes limp.

[@GroundZeroTactical]

I've been choked twice in the past I get headaches an migraines at random I constantly have to drink water an walk to promote cardiovascular health don't do that to anyone if you're not in a boxing ring.

[@NappyZoeRebel]

Great video!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stfuitsjuan7119]

I was known for my headlocks i went for the trachea with my forearm everytime

[@ted.8631]

3:50 he gets to the point

[@myPhDinAwesomeness]

This strangulation works even by just blocking one side (e.g. left side only) right?

[@tamezzodiac2862]

I can't blood choke out idk why. I guess my artaties are super deep. I know I can, it's just hard to do on me.

[@pablowithrice1593]

That was a poor rear naked choke. Speeds elbow should be closer to the chin of Adin to ensure he’s blocking the jugular veins. Adin more than likely wouldn’t pass out from this, but I’ve been in a poorly made choke and it hurts the jugular doing that. Also if that was suppose to be a figure four, that was pathetic.

[@ambrosiusblem5404]

great video!! but it should be called the physiology of the rear naked choke, since you do not mention the mechanichs of the strangle in one word....that would be super interesting, if you could add on to this....what parts of your body / arms do you use in what position and what kind of "muscle contraction / movement " you use to apply force. greets from europe

[@parshvashah7044]

Do skull come out

[@DisorderedUniverse]

Firstly, it’s not ‘choking’. The correct term is strangulation. Choking occurs ‘when an object lodges in the throat or windpipe blocking the flow of air’. Secondly, they don’t go to ‘sleep’. Sleep is much more complex than being strangled to unconsciousness. Brain damage can and does occur (in 5 seconds) without the loss of consciousness. Read the medical literature, review the anecdotal evidence in news - this is most dangerous thing you can do to a human being. Anyone who engages in this extremely damaging and deadly practice is either ill-informed, reckless or psychopathic.

[@CyrusLogie]

This is not the most dangerous thing you can do to a human being. I've been RNC'ed more times than I can count, and I've done it as often. Nobody had any type of lasting damage, ever.
