Worth watching, if only for the jiggler at -1:05.

I wonder if he's a nice person.

actually, he just had a "nervous breakdown" due to his being barred from competition for the next four months. The crime? He said he was injured and didn't go on the jungyo (tours of the areas other than the three big cities sumo tournaments are in) and then was photographed in his native Mongolia playing soccer for charity and being pretty fucking nimble

in sumo, being a yokozuna is a huge deal, and there's a whole lot of things you have to do to live up to the "honor" of the rank. the fact that he's mongolian is already a huge strike against him in the racist eyes of those in charge of this 2000 yr. old sport, so, yeah.

My favorite is the one where he follows the guy and almost keeps pushing him even after he's well out of the ring and into the stands.

That is just freaking impressive is what that is right there. And if I could share some of these stars with teethsalad, I would. I always appreciate some additional insight.

One of the few sports in which ringside seats afford you the luxury of a large naked man toppling onto you in the blink of an eye.

Sumo is always a lot more squirrelly than I expect it to be, despite having watched it numerous times.

-0:55 : YOUR LARD IS WEAK.
