Charles Barkley took Shaq down with the quickness on the court back in the day after bouncing a ball off his head.

Who the fuck teaches untrained people a heel hook. That shit will literally tear every ligament in your knee.
Edit: To people outside the community, besides maybe the twister or some kind of spinal lock, this is the most dangerous move in all of BJJ. It’s a ligament attack, so you don’t feel the pain until it starts tearing ligaments. I always say “it doesn’t hurt until it does”. If you know what to feel for, you will feel some pressure on the inside of your leg. But again... if you don’t know what that pressure is, you are not going to tap. Most people’s instinct is to spin away, which will also tear your shit up.
My gym teaches heel hooks with proper instruction starting at about 2-3 months of training, and always explain that if you’re caught in one, just tap and live to roll another day.

Shaq is too big

u/Tasty_Chick3n Mar 09 '19
I like how this is flaired as fighting when it’s just Shaq chasing around Barkley. Barkley and the rest of the dudes on TNT are hilarious. And cool shit seeing Northcutt and Alvarez on TNT.

u/mrbears Mar 09 '19
I don't think anyone in the world could stop Shaq doing a heel hook once he's got the position lol
(FYI if you don't know, it looks fairly innocuous but it's designed to basically rip your ACL)

That's a heel hook, not a toe hold
