"The man who goes down is not a man" "The man who stand is a man" -The man who goes down
-
0:07 "Heaviest Japanese human in recorded history" USA: "That's adorable!"
-
I love how gracious the guy who won was. Not only was he super humble, but while his companions seemed like they were just having fun, he clearly had a ton of respect for the people and the culture.
-
His name fits his weight The name “yama” means mountain Just like how hes big like a mountain
-
The black dude “the man is the one standing and if you’re not standing you’re not a man” Gets played around
-
He is the only 600 pound human that can stand
-
I like how Will, the most experienced in wrestling in the group, didn't even think his win was very appropriate.
-
I like how confident that stick was
-
Everyone is trying way too hard to be funny
-
He hit him out of the ring by a butt cheek
-
I love that the fattest Japanese is a successful athlete, on the other hand, in any other country the fattest would only be a guy who doesn't stop eating KFC and would weigh 3 times more than Yama
-
-
“ I just hope not to fart in the ring” “Shits all over ring”
-
Japan: Our heaviest person in recorded history is 600 lbs! America: hold my happy meal
-
03:38 The guy actually won against the champ lol
-
couldn’t help but laugh when the regular people were listing things that could help them win “i’m naturally athletic” “i’m a good wrestler who’s won a professional competition” “i have taken part in LARPing”
-
I respect sumo wrestling. These guys spend time maintaining their physical forms and improving techniques and while people think they're just fat, they have serious muscle. Getting tackled by one of these dudes at full force is the same as getting hit by a truck lol
-
Japan: our heaviest person is 600 pounds America: hold our beers
-
Only the most cultured remember Byamba's appearances in Impractical Jokers trolling Joe during two punishments Not only was Byamba a sumo wrestler but he also participated in Mongolian wrestling (Mongolia was his country of birth), judo, and sambo. He also appeared as a figure skating sumo in a GEICO commercial. Unfortunately back in February 2020, he passed away from acute respiratory failure at age 35. The world just isn't the same without this legend
-
2:39 Yama pushed that guy as if he's an actual Sumo athlete lmao When it's about sumo he's dead serious
