I know what the guy on bottom was feeling...it's one of the worst feelings in the world to hurt somebody seriously when you're grappling. Had a very, very good judoka blow his shoulder out while competing against me this summer when he tried to force his way out of a crucifix, I think I lost part of my soul when I felt his shoulder pop.

By the by, that move is a kimura from the guard (gyaku ude garami for you judo players), and is primarily a medial shoulder hyperrotation. It only takes a few pounds of pressure to break the shoulder, and the distance between the tap and the break is about an inch or two.

The guy on the bottom was strongarming the sub just a bit, though, I'm not too surprised the guy in his guard thought he could escape. Generally when you do the kimura, you scoot out so you're at a 30-90 degree angle from your opponent, and keep his arm is bent at a much greater angle, with his wrist going up his back towards his opposite shoulder blade. The attacker had his opponent's arm a litle too far out from his body, which results in less control, more forcing with strength, and, in this case, a fucked-up arm.
