I was taught a variation of this by which the gunting arm after the impact wraps clockwise around the opponent’s head as the other hand pushes up and forwards to the opponent’s right arm. As you run out of reach you swing your right leg around behind towards your left side and jack upward with the head. Predictably dangerous and great care must be taken to prevent injury to your partner. This move can be done with considerable speed and force in a life or death situation and is not easily countered. More commonly we stepped through after the gunting impact and transitioned into a hip throw.
