I've definitely seen this on old school WWF wrestling. I can't remember which wrestler did it though.

Anyone who's read my comments knows I'm not a big fan of the police these days, but they were totally in the right here, and the description is absolutely ridiculous BS IMO.
People who try to make a police misconduct case out of this should think first and realize that offering this as evidence of police misconduct/abuse minimizes ACTUAL misconduct/abuse. There was NO "brutal beating", no choking seen, no stomping, no 'swarming by 9 officers', no 'slamming to the concrete', no 'arrested for jaywalking', just a teenager acting a fool and ignoring commands, pushing and kicking officers, and grabbing their weapons, all of which didn't end well for him when he's arrested for resisting arrest and refusing to comply with a direct lawful order from a peace officer...he'll be incredibly lucky if another charge for assault on a police officer isn't coming.
I wonder, what alternative actions do those complaining about this think the police SHOULD have taken? Just let him walk away indignantly? The law simply doesn't work that way.

Jaywalking may not be an arrest-able offence, but refusing/ignoring an officer's lawful command to stop certainly is, so is resisting when the cop tries to control/arrest you (like pulling the cop's hand off your arm, pushing the cop, or grabbing the baton that has yet to hit you).
The kid only gets hit with the baton (in the video) when he grabs it with both hands and tries to wrestle it away from the cop, as the cop wrestles for control of the weapon, the kid gets grazed in the face. When the other 4 (not 9) officers take control, he continues to fight with them and is taken to the ground.
As to his being a kid, he certainly thought he was adult enough to ignore/fight with the police. As far as I could tell, they all used restraint (compared to the normal dog pile and face kicks we've seen in the past in this kind of situation). I really don't think this video is going to help that 'kid' in court.
I'm somewhat surprised they didn't go after the woman screaming for interfering with a police action, or at least command her to move away. Telling the kid to stay seated (and ignore the command to get on the ground) sure seems to meet the criteria in my eyes.

Well according to the clip of Stallone's arm wrestling show, apparently drinking automobile oil before a match does NOT make you stronger or better at it (much like Popeye and a can of spinach). BUT, it does seem to show that it has the ability to induce a superpower allowing a seemingly normal person to become schizophrenic...

BTW, I said superpower rather than mental illness, because from the schizophrenic individual's perspective he is surely battling Hell's most dangerous beasts, demons, and devils. Merely with the power of his arm wrestling techniques backed up by the miniature fission based nuclear reactor in his gut. It also leaves him in a perpetual manic state, where much like the Lego Movie, "Everything Is Awesome"...

I imagine that he may upgrade to a mixture of anti-freeze and power steering fluids; absolutely logical.

Devon is a true campion in his sport. Not only is he really good at it, he makes it look FUN. Not an easy thing to do for arm wrestling.

I know there's a lot of technique in arm wrestling, and a lot of very specific training, but I'm still surprised quite how easy the arm wrestler makes this look. The mountain is very big and very strong, even if he's not specifically trained for this event!

He should have tried Rambo's move of lifting each finger one at a time and putting them back down again. That seems to work for him in the secret world of underground truck-driver arm wrestling rings.

Oh man, the uileann pipes are a beautiful instrument but they are ridiculously difficult to play. It's like trying to arm wrestle an octopus. It takes years to get good at them, that kid must have started as a foetus!

Muscle size is pretty much limited by bone strength. Thats why there is a limit and you can only go over it by using steroids. With bigger bones you also of course get stronger tendons.
And if you have a bad muscle to bone ratio, your bone snaps in an arm wrestling match.

I met an ex British arm-wrestling champion when i was on holiday in the south of France (he was sort of a holiday rep, but for a caravan park, and did more or less everything).

He was a big bloke, and said that muscle of course helps but that it was mostly down to technique. He didn't say anything about forearm length, but it stands to reason that the larger the angle between forearm and upper arm, the less 'turning' force you can produce.

Arm wrestling is about technique and leverage. Almost no strength involved.

Guy on the left has no leverage. Place about 2 inches under the right guy's elbow and Barbell Boy would spin him upside down.

The guy with the longer forearm loses.

I want to say Norm MacDonald is an acquired taste, but he isn't. I love this guy and always have. Maybe he can control some of our minds but not all?

Hmmm... maybe that's why he can just stammer and trip over his words, barely even mouthing out the entirety of their syllables and still be hilarious! It's actually his entire act to be ignorant, including his cadence and body language; so pretty much everything he does and says is ignorant in a very funny way. Irony is funny, what can a person say but to the contrary, which is objectively wrong -- and I have several books on irony that deal directly with the subject.

I can see why people don't enjoy his humor, but what he is doing, the jokes he's telling have objective qualities which are considered funny as per the writings and philosophies of mankind, therefore intellectually sound per said society.

The jokes are often but not always so low brow they appeal to a broad audience. It's genius, I'm sorry. You haters probably can't even stomach an Andy Kaufmann wrestling match.

Only if you consider WWF 'wrestlers' con-artists. I see them as performers. Maybe I'm wrong and they claim it's all real (well, so do wrestlers when in character), but it's not like you can't see the guy pressing against the drill with his hand instead of his head. It's not as impressive as they 'claim', but is still impressive for what it actually is (well, some of it is, some is just totally silly, like wrestling).

I don't understand the point of intentional drifting. Does it have anything to do with racing (when on a track) as in trying to have the best time? I assume its more like watching monster trucks or WWE wrestling. Am i wrong?

Is it too much to ask that they now recap all of professional wrestling from the early nineties to the present day in the same style, but greater detail? Match by match, ideally.

It's very hard to differentiate ribs breaking and massive blunt trauma on that area. Something i found out after a wrestling match with one feisty woman where she landed on my ribs flying knees first taking me down... She was a stripper at a time and athletics to match. The doctor said that the pain is the same and only x-rays solved that nothing broke but i had a massive bruising under the ribs. Takes about same time to heal as bone injury too.
