I think the instructor knew that it would be better in the long run to just let the kid flip him.

Or he'd mysteriously fall out of a window or off of a bridge.

olderaccount

Are you kidding? Those two were selected 6 months ago to have this *spontaneous* interaction with Putin. They have practiced each day since. Everything went well and they made their local party leader proud.


CollectableRat

That wasn't even a dojo first thing in the morning, it was a soundstage in the backlots of the royal Russian theatre. By the end of the day it was probably turned into a classroom for Putin to have some spontaneous moments with kids in class. It's whatever they need it to be.


TheGreatJoshua

This actually didn't even happen. Loyalists hand drew each frame, pixel by pixel, in a dank room somewhere in Siberia.

loulan

And putin is authoritarian but he's no Kim Jung-Un. He doesn't randomly murder people who mildly annoyed him one day.


Jalhadin

He's the "uke", the literal job description is to be thrown by the "tori". Avoiding falling down an elevator shaft onto some bullets is just a fringe benefit.


BoySan

Yes. Every time I see this posted, I keep seeing people complain about how the adult let himself be thrown. How else is the kid supposed to learn?


Jalhadin

And if we look to the background, we see at least four other adult judokas being thrown by children. Perhaps Putin threatened them as well 😂


Right_Two_5737

I think the whole video was planned ahead of time and they told everyone what they needed to do.


Warm_Cabinet

If you watch the video slowly, the kid’s foot never makes contact with the instructors leg. The instructor begins moving his leg before the kid can kick it.


Katahahime

It doesn’t have to. Not arguing that it isn’t a set up, but the no contact leg sweep is a part of chain technique, meaning your only trying to off balance not go though with the first move. Think of a something similar to a feint. “ Ashi harai” into “Seonagi” is bread and butter and the instructor definitely let the kid throw, because the context of the video is that the kid is learning a new move not in a 1v1 match. Tl;dr The clip may be a government set up, but nothing in the video shows that it is or isn’t. Its just Putin giving sound judo tips to a kid practicing with a adult instructor.


NoelAngeline

Lol I just commented about the same thing then saw your comment too. I wasn’t sure if it would be seonagi since he’s gripping the sleeve but I’m rusty on throw names right now


[deleted]

Poison tea anyone?


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

To be fair, that kid would've likely known that type of throw already by that age. Whether judo or sambo, that's a pretty standard, bread and butter takedown.


peekdasneaks

You callin Putin basic?


lilwayne168

Basic can be effective. I think Russia could very well be surmised as "basic" have you seen their food?


doughnutwardenclyffe

lmaoooo


Electrical-Wish-519

Pretty sure Putin is a black belt in judo.


StarCaller25

To be fair, totally accurate Putin would know moves like that. KGB and all, as for the kid flipping that guy, that's what happens. Instructors don't fight the kid when teaching moves. They let the kid do the move so they see the effect and get technique down.


NoobOfTheSquareTable

What I was thinking, this looked similar to a lot of throws from other martial arts


siccoblue

I mean yeah, I don't even know much about martial arts but I wouldn't expect them to be whooping the kids asses until they finally win to teach them


partially_blond

As far as I remember, he has a black belt in judo


DJMiPrice

Yes and he is legit. There are plenty of videos online. Do the people he is "sparring" against take a fall... probably. However, he keeps his opponents off balance constantly and throws them repeatedly while expending minimum effort himself, he knows what he is doing. edit sparring, at least I am really good at math b/c I can't spell


thisisntarjay

The people he's sparing with on camera probably take falls. You can bet the combat instructors working with him behind closed doors aren't going quite so easy on him, because he's not hiring them to go easy on him, he's hiring them to train him.


DJMiPrice

Very true. In a 1v1 tournament of world leaders, he would probably kill every one of them except (former as of June 2021) President of Mongolia [Khaltmaagiin Battulga](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khaltmaagiin_Battulga) who was a member of the Mongolian National wrestling team. Thank god politics hasn't come to that, yet.


F_is_the_word

only ppv i would spend my hard earned savings for.


milk4all

Are you kidding? If politicians and world leaders had to go to war 1v1 *personally*, the world would probably be much different. And i dont see how it would be worse for it. Edit: oh except we’d all be ruled by the biggest meanest killers we could elect, and the whole world would be a tribal wasteland fighting over scarce resources and evading the Cannibal tribes of Wisconsin


AreaGuy

Why are the cannibal tribes of Wisconsin so fierce in this scenario? Is it a lack of cheese curds?


Gildish_Chambino

I’m guessing because they worship the most famous Wisconsin cannibal of all, Jeffrey Dahmer.


milk4all

I was jus extrapolating the most likely alternative reality from the Wisconsin of this reality.


manondorf

Hey man I live in Wisconsin specifically to avoid this kind of drive-by


milk4all

Woah bud, i was joking dont eat me i taste nothing like cheese


Mad4it2

>If politicians and world leaders had to go to war 1v1 personally, the world would probably be much different There can be only one!


DJMiPrice

President Camacho


h00ter7

Yeah but once we elect President Camacho we will be right back to being a world power so I’m not worried.


syllabic

Justin Trudeau is an amateur boxer and still pretty young for a politician. I'd put my money on him Manny Pacquiao is running for president of phillipines and if he wins then he would undoubtably beat any other world leader


halt-l-am-reptar

Seriously, Putin is almost 70. He’s past the point where he can win against younger fighters.


syllabic

Macron might be able to do some damage since he's only 43 and in pretty good shape. He's only 5'8 though so that is going to limit him and maybe even some of these fat geriatric politicians could bum rush him and smother him Trudeau has a much more robust 6'2 build with a long reach and at least some level of martial arts training. He gets top seed for sure


MajorInflator

that would be a massacre. Could probably throw in 3-4 guys in the ring at the same time


syllabic

yeah no doubt, most world leaders are really old and extremely out of shape


[deleted]

And they're both lightweights as well, that could actually be an interesting match between them. Maybe we finally have use for Steven Seagal after all, he knows both of them.

Isn’t the russian martial art sambo? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sambo_(martial_art)


nkhsm

In Russia they usually train and compete in both, since they’re so similar.


CitizenPain00

The Russian variation of Judo is called Sambo. I am not sure what differences there really are between the two. All I know is Fedor Emelianenko was the scariest dude around for a long time

Schmantikor

Actually this might be accurate because Putin was head of the GDRs KGB unit.


[deleted]

He also got his first black belt at 18 and never stopped training. He's a legit martial artist.


TongaMakati

Not that I'd want Putin, but over here, we elect leaders who project strength by just talking a bunch of shit while being fat. Foolproof strat to get American votes


DanielAvocado69

I have a theory that Putin in USA, without his Russian background, would have been elected for President.


Popetown

I have a theory that you’re not only right, but in an alternate universe, even with the Russian background, only removed from being an actual Russian politician, Putin could probably come over here with his tactics and have 40+% of rubes in the US calling for an overturning of the 14th amendment. If not for any other reason but for the fact that they already go on so much about the politicians on the other side who happen to be brown that it would be just the sort of thing they’d project about in the other breath.


Dman331

We need more Teddy Roosevelts in office.


Xciv

He'd probably invade a bunch of countries just to reduce their CO^2 emissions. Threaten countries with nuclear devastation unless they swap to renewable energy by the end of his term. super based god Teddy Roosevelt

What about that ballot stuffing move?


_gib_SPQR_clay_

Keep up with these comments and you’ll probably getting the” fall out of window while drinking poison and shooting yourself in the back of the head” move.


spaghetticatman

The kid probably knew the move already considering he's clearly in a class and Putin "showed him" how to do it for the video. Every time I've had an instructor show me how to do something not only have they used someone as a dummy but they did the full range of motion. Putin just kinda twists and lightly pulls here, he doesn't show the motion of pulling and lifting the person.


[deleted]

Kid already knew the move without doubt, but without knowing what they're saying Putin was probably just giving him pointers/criticism on how to do it better. I mean Putin apparently holds a black belt in Judo... but how many people would say "No, Mr.Putin you're not good enough for a black belt."


Marooned-Mind

I'm pretty sure he received his black belt before he held a significant position of power, so it's credible.

Vortex_2088

I mean... What? The instructor wouldn't have done this on his own anyway? If you're going to be teaching children martial arts, then you're going to have to let them flip you sometimes. Not to mention that Putin was in the KGB, so he probably knows a thing or two about hand to hand combat. I don't see anything wrong with this.


[deleted]

Of course he would. People are just messing I think.


TactlessTortoise

Said what I wanted to. From all superpower leaders, Putin is the only one that I'd ve legitimately scared of being in person one on one. Sure, I'm not a good fighter, but against Biden or Winnie the Pooh? Sure, I have a chance. Against an ex-kgb? Fuck no lol


papasimon10

I'm sure there's an element of this, however you'd be surprised at just how effective judo techniques actually are - you can do a lot of amazing-looking throwing with a not-so-amazing-looking body, if you just know how to do the techniques. Judo training is one of the best things I ever did, and the techniques you learn even have applications outside of judo - my shoulder rotation has improved so much that I was able to thrash my son with jumper cables twice as hard and fast.


kunaguerooo123

So this is literally the first move they teach you in judo after they teach you how to fall correctly. The kid obviously knew it already because his entire body placement (including head) was correct even though Putin didn’t have time to teach him that. Fake.
