The brutal sport that you have probably never heard of | Next of Kin: Laamb

[@Hadjaljilani]

I'm senegalese and journalist but this documentary on laamb is the best I've ever seen yet. Congratulations

[@BRCMediasn]

Ceux-là ont vraiment appris ce qu'est le journalisme, contrairement à l'amateurisme de certains de nos journalistes. Eux, ils cherchent à mettre en avant le contenu et la qualité du documentaire, pas leur propre personne. Ils font preuve de professionnalisme en laissant l'histoire parler d'elle-même, sans chercher à se mettre sous les projecteurs..Contrairement à nous

Do you like Jairzinho Rozenstruik? UFC heavyweight

[@tobeforgottenisworsethande8995]

Nevermind. He's surinamese

[@TheBlackCoton]

But the title is far from being respectful ! And it’s important

[@papajoe4508]

This sport has everything that’s gone missing in western big money professionalism. It warms my heart to see that much culture and passion

[@Ingaevones33]

Same here but we can’t be gullible and pretend it’s not already corrupt from the floor-up..I mean,it’s Africa,after all.. 🤷‍♂️ But I think it’s incredibly beautiful and I can see a good,filthy rich African man coming along and making it into something great to share with the world..wouldn’t that be exiting? It’ll be like Euro-Americans sharing baseball,football or basketball or the people of whatever..that would be a big moment in history as well because this has that special something ..we yearn for combat..we yearn for blood. This would be a wonderful gift for all the world,for centuries to come. 🪷 👁️

As a Nigerian that grew up in The Gambia for almost 2 decades, Laamb aka Boreh was always a commanding sport.. Nop na Len jambar yi..

I love documentaries like this because I just learned about a sport I've never heard about. I love Wrestling, Jiu Jitsu, MMA and have followed it for 35 years and I've never heard of Laamb and I'm already a fan. This is amazing.

[@verntapper8857]

thats a fact

[@SheikhamatbambaMbowe]

Yeah it's a beautiful and nice sport call laambou but that (ou) is silence. The king of the sport will be fighting November 29, he will be defending his throne and tha king is modou lo

There is something about senegalese people that I like so much. They seem so connected and down to earth for some reason. I cared for a senegalese dude with a heavy form of autism for 3 years, he was such a chad!

[@777rev]

Love how passionate Becaye is about Laamb. You can just sense the love he has for the sport.

[@ObeyCamp]

Man, this is absolutely incredible, I've never seen anything like this. The rituals are so fascinating with the dancing and the blessings and shamans, what an incredibly deep and rich culture. I love it. I'm an American so any time I see people engaging in such rich and old culture I feel such a deep fascination and envy, and obviously Africa has the oldest cultures by a long shot. Amazing.

[@thejughead138]

Thank you for this documentary, it was fantastic! I am not Senegalese but i am a black Brit of Nigerian heritage and i appreciated the respect you showed West African culture. Love & respect brother.

[@Yazid-tc4nc]

Even through the screen it feels unreal and passionate, just like the video about Calcio Storico, you real feel that unexplained something in the air, in the stadium. The game faces of the wrestlers the sound, the vivid, vivid color just makes you feel like your there in the crowd cheering too!! Great video and hope to see more obscure but amazing sports!!

[@terrylucas630]

Respect to the Senegalese wrestlers and their school for warriors. Love & Respect from America🙏❤️

[@JudoHubKenya]

This sport should be more mainstream man. What an incredible atmosphere

[@GrKa90]

the fact that it's on sand, there's no weight category and there's no time stop shows how difficult the sport is. Sometimes on the beach I do jiu-jitsu fights with my mates and because of the sand we get all scratched up. imagine where it's more serious.

[@AdamaDiame-tf1ne]

Omg bro you just did a great job thank so much ❤️

[@marcd1981]

"Talismans don't guarantee victory, but they raise the spirits". This was an interesting way of looking at it. Another aspect is the fighters believe it to be true that without a Shaman guiding you in the arena, you will lose. So in a way, they are creating the problem they tried to overcome with Shamans having power to sway a match. Max was surprised at the end that people fight bare knuckle. There are several organizations that are bare knuckle fighting organizations. Fights every month, videos all over KZbin. This has been building over the past couple of years and it's getting pretty popular.
