Talk:Rear naked choke

message: I added a reasonably detailed description of how to perform the RNC. Is this irresponsible?
: Why not? An encyclopedic article should be complete. Shawnc 19:05, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: So?  The type of information in the two can overlap.  A description of the RNC helps one understand what it is. Jimmy C. 00:51, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it would be extraordinarily difficult to describe in detail any martial arts maneuver without imparting at least some knowledge toward its utilization. The disclaimer in the article looks out of place but I feel it's necessary. Yes, this discussion is almost a year old... but, uh, sue me. 68.14.76.151 08:55, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

text: I think You should not include the information on how to use this hold for I have been Injured and crushed my larnyx when another person performed this on me. Please remove the information for others peoples safety. Thank You.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cossatot (talk • contribs) 19:30, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Existance of Technique 

message: Do we really want a pro wrestling picture on this page?  While the "sleeper hold" is used in pro wrestling, it tends to give a very deadly move a "fake" image.  I think someone should put the picture of the BJJ guy choking the lion.  That was at least entertaining. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 76.183.123.23 (talk) 05:21, 28 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It looks fake... the pressure looks like it's on the windpipe, which is not the correct technique. I say change it. hateless 00:11, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree the image shows improper technique. I looked around for better pictures but didn't find any not copyrighted. I've removed the image since it detracts from the article. Those who disagree may revert the change. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 206.248.160.193 (talk) 04:38, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Picture 

message: I was taught not to grab my bicep; instead I should curl my hands into fists and but one on top of my bicep, while the other goes behind the head/neck and sissors.  Jimmy C. 00:51, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proper Technique 

message: I'd like to see an explanation of why this hold includes the word "naked" in its name.  Why not just "rear choke"?  It doesn't appear to involve nakedness any more than any other hold. 96.28.136.215 (talk) 11:27, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Coming from Japanese Judo, Hadaka-Jime, is the only Judo choke that doesn't utilize the Judogi, therefore naked strangle, or rear naked choke refers to the fact that it isn't necessary for the uniform to be worn during the technique, from there we get the naked terminology. — Jdcollins13 (talk) 20:36, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Etymology 

message: I think the statement in the "figure 4" section about the potential for permanent brain damage is incorrect when referring to a correctly applied hadaka jime technique as taught in judo and as described in that section, and it needs to be removed or qualified and referenced. I am a judoka (and a neuroscientist), and many senseis and many books refer to the harmlessness of the technique when applied correctly. A momentary loss of consciousness does not cause brain damage. Incorrect technique can cause all kinds of injury and death, but correct technique causes brief unconsciousness and sometimes a little disorientation. Bodily shaking (mild convulsions) can also happen as the uke (recipient of the technique) regains consciousness. Opponents may apply this technique to 13 year-old kids in judo competitions worldwide, and if they don't submit, they go to sleep. It's fine. No need to worry parents of young judoka about brain damage. Brain damage from a properly applied technique can only happen if the pressure is maintained for 4-6 minutes after loss of consciousness (at which point it is no longer a proper technique), which is never allowed under the rules of judo, and which would be considered assault or attempted homicide in most jurisdictions, and not an accidental outcome of this technique.

replies: text: I also think the entire Safe Application section should be removed. The only safety rationale presented is the editor's false assumption that temporary interruption of cerebral blood flow to the point of unconsciousness can cause brain damage. That only happens if the pressure is maintained long after unconsciousness, like I said above. Reference 5 in the article reviews the evidence in pretty good depth.
