It’s a testament to great coaching when the students pull off submissions. I’d imagine 100s of instructors would not admit to getting submitted by one of their students in private let alone put it on the internet.
Exactly man. It's a proud moment when a student submits you or gets close to it - it means that you've taught them well and that they're improving well. Not much more you can ask for 🙂
In truth, if I were an instructor, I would consider it a honour to be submitted by a student. It would indicate (to me at least) that I taught him well
It was a great time, if we ever do it again, in GI maybe, Id be down for that :) Thanks to Jordan and Nord VPN for the cash and was well spent on a good meal afterwards with a great group of friends. One thing not mentioned was that we (the students) got water and 2 rounds of breaks in-between rolls, they got zero water and less than 5 seconds between rounds. Like Darren said, after a while it takes its toll.
This is such a great idea. I really love all this gamification of BJJ. Taking some of the seriousness out of it, but keeping the high quality content BJJ you have us gotten used to.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu I don't know if you'll see this but a possible idea that could go along these lines is having the three coaches fight 3 white/blue belts each at the same time. If you submit one, they have to go out for 1-2 minutes. If they submit you it's game over and they get to pile onto a different coach along with the other ones who are already fighting. Then create a scoring system based on how long the coach team manages to last. Might make for an interesting video concept that I don't think has been done before. Loved this vid btw, great stuff
I trained bjj for few months, got injured and was out for a 6 months. After that, had 3 kids, moved, career, etc.. I just got back into it and was almost upset that im already 35.. Seeing this older dude kick butt like that at his age, I am completely back on track in my mind. At the current time I feel stronger and better than ever. Clearly we dont have to retire at 40. Thank you for this video!
This was very fun to watch. The idea that your students were paid for each submission was a clever one. I hope to see more like this in the future i.e. a GI sharktank. Orrr a mini tourney/king of the mats with bjj youtubers. You could do handicap matches like one person in gi, the other in no gi.
I train with Jean Guy almost every day and I learn so much from him. It was awesome to see him rolling and getting tested on your channel! He's a great guy and greater instructor!
Hey Jordan i love your videos and one thing i love about your rolls is you are very gentle and safe on your movements and how you move your opponent and everything for you is effortless i love these rolls and i keep learning so much about you.
I appreciate that so much man. I take a lot of pride in my fluidity which has been the result of years of working to become as technical as possible. I'm always trying to use the minimum effective dose of strength :)
Looks like everyone but poor Joey had fun 😅 He got set up to have his lack of size exploited by the students, and then you can tell that being the only coach to be tapped was demoralizing him in addition to the insane energy expenditure, especially when you're a smaller guy where you're fighting off much more weight relative to your size, which makes these shark tanks especially brutal for the smaller people. He still got plenty of vengeance though, so I hope he didn't take it too hard!
Yeah when you're big you can put weight down without expending very much energy, especially when you get good at it. Keeping the weight off you is not as easy
We knew going into it that Joey was the most likely to be submitted, only because of his size relative to some of the students. He's a highly skilled black belt and actually the first black belt I've given out. He's got a great attitude and it didn't bother him 🙂
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu That's interesting. I'd love to see you roll with your black belts more, especially nogi. Even just narrating their rolls with other people would be really cool
Holy crap Jordan, this is probably your best video yet. Please never stop making your informative videos, but this was an awesome change-up. I thought Joey was gonna die in round 3 lol
Looks like tons of fun, great way to learn on any belt and teachers. You guys need to make a part 2 with different circumstances like $10 for arm bars $20 for leg locks and so forth, just to change things up but keep it fun.
I know it wouldn’t be good for the algorithm but you should release some of the individual rolls as videos as well. Nikki’s style is actually pretty sick
Awesome video. Would love to see a gi version, as well as (if it's not too much editing effort) the name of the sub as it's happening. Could be added to the money graphic as it pops up and means that at the end, you can see strengths/weaknesses of each student and coach.
try this: Pick a class time that suits you. Go to the head coach outside of that class time and ask who is a usual at that class time that is the most friendly, that could pair up with you for the first few classes. See if you can meet said person BEFORE the actual class. If youre okay with this, have the coach explain to the person that youre anxious. Ask said person some questions about anything, even non-jj related, just trying to warm up yourself to the one person.
This was such an awesome, awesome video. Such a family vibe. I’m new(er) to BJJ, but if I’m ever in town, I’m coming to roll with Limitless. Great stuff! 🙌🏾
Awesome video!! You could have used graphics and visuals to help explain the rules a little more clearly, that would be next level. Great fun, thanks for this cool Bjj content!
If possible, could we get more NoGi rolling footage of your 1st Black Belt Joey? As a little guy myself, there isn't many little guy BJJ out there so I'd love to see more of him 🙏
It seems like some coaches don't role with upper belts as much and don't compete. I can understand that you wouldn't want new students to think that a black belt isn't a big deal just because they lost some rounds. This is cool because its a bunch of rounds combined so you can see that skill and training gives you better and better chances to win (even if almost all black vs white belt matches are near 0% chance for white belts)
He's the guy you don't make eye contact with between rounds lol seriously though, he's so strong, so technically sound, and doesn't get tired, its crazy! He will let blue & purple belts start with an armbar...and get out,
What a GREAT VIDEO 👍👍 love to see this kind of stuff. BMAC over at tenth planet had a similar shark tank video where students got to pick an envelope with money inside if they submitted him, another really fun video. Keep ‘em comin!
We tried to make it so we would wear them out then send in the big boys to finish the job, but it didn't go exactly as planned lol For Alex not to tap Jordan after 8 rounds with no water or breaks is crazy.

Hey Jordan, the Nord VPN link is broken just FYI.
Might want to check link, it didn't work for me.
Link still broken
Thanks guys I reached out to Nord VPN and am waiting for them to fix it 🙂
Also the code didn’t work unfortunately

The content you keep putting out keeps getting better and better. Keep up the great work!
As a fellow BJJ black belt I have to say this was a lot of fun to watch and a good idea to get the guys in the gym all fired up!
Good work.

I feel like to get to black belt those feelings have to be pushed out when it comes to something like this
Been waiting for this one! 🙌🏼
👊
Really thought he was about to tap you and you just end the video right before the tap. 🤣 Great video!
Haha saved by the bell
Holy crap Jordan, this is probably your best video yet. Please never stop making your informative videos, but this was an awesome change-up.
I thought Joey was gonna die in round 3 lol
Love that it ended up being a win win. Everyone came away with money and valuable mat time. Great video. 💪
Thank you! I agreed. I was actually really happy we didn't get all the money for ourselves.
Looks like tons of fun, great way to learn on any belt and teachers. You guys need to make a part 2 with different circumstances like $10 for arm bars $20 for leg locks and so forth, just to change things up but keep it fun.
Was excited to see this video dropped and was not disappointed. Great work to everyone involved
4:30 "Nick is also my wife and there is no way im gonna let that happen " 🤣🤣
I've been grappling for a long time and I have always loved it. However, the grappling scene is getting cooler and cooler each year. Good stuff!
Been waiting for this!
Love the video Jordan! Appreciate the leadership in rolling 9 rounds
You make the best BJJ content i can’t wait to see what you cook up next!
Thank you! I'm always trying to think of new video ideas. Dedicated to the game and the viewers 🙌
This was so much fun to watch!!
Your students had a good strategy, they must have good coaches!
4:16 lmao at the comment
I know it wouldn’t be good for the algorithm but you should release some of the individual rolls as videos as well. Nikki’s style is actually pretty sick
Thank you ☺️☺️
She would make everyone show up to class lol
Seconded. Always be passin', I could use some of that attitude in my own "let's just see what the other guy does"-game..
Absolutely love how every roll ends in a smile here. Good vibes
This turned out great!! Super fun. I’m glad I was there to watch it live 🤙🏻👊🏻
Awesome video. Would love to see a gi version, as well as (if it's not too much editing effort) the name of the sub as it's happening. Could be added to the money graphic as it pops up and means that at the end, you can see strengths/weaknesses of each student and coach.
I definitely want to do a Gi version. Now that I have practice doing this style of video, the next one will be even better 🙂
That's a great idea
That was so nice to watch 🤙🏽… respect to everyone
Glad you enjoyed it 🤙
Good concept for a video! Looked a lot of fun for the students
Thanks! So much fun!
💪 been looking forward to this since hearing on the pod
like this format, brings about more intensity to the rounds!
Money is a great motivator haha
you animal!!! I love this idea of competition and good job protecting the streak. awesome video man.
Thanks man! Definitely gotta do this again sometime.
Such an entertaining video
Really enjoyed this
Thank you!
Epic video loved watching this one!
Wonderful storytelling Jordan. Nice job!
Very well put together. Really enjoyed it. You have a great environment and culture at your gym! Would love to train there some day
Reall fun to watch! Thanks
Great video. I really enjoyed it. It would be even fun to do part II, where you would go throu some more footage from this recording.
This is savage!!! Love it❤️🤙🏽💪🏽💯
This is epic! It’s like a Jiu Jitsu game show
I definitely gotta do this again 🙂
Awesome video! Definitely strategic placement with that ad! You can tell you're a professional UA-camr! 🤣
Jordan do you have a link for your nutrition and longevity course please
jordan-teaches-jiu-jitsu.thinkific.com/courses/performance-longevity 🙂
watching your vids before training to get me in the state of mind and its great
That's awesome! Glad to hear it :)
Every time I watch your videos it makes me want to get into Jiu-jitsu but Idk I can’t make myself go.
Anxiety?
You'll regret not going the very first class I promise.
@@uke_mike yes
try this:
Pick a class time that suits you.
Go to the head coach outside of that class time and ask who is a usual at that class time that is the most friendly, that could pair up with you for the first few classes.

This helped me, and i still train with that one person, but i have warmed up to a few other people too.
Best of luck.
Ok Jordan you’re officially a legend 😂 How did you not get submitted sheeeeeesh!?! 😅
Haha thanks man. Wasn't easy!
Jordan!! Amazing video! The team did so well instructors and students! I absolutely love this concept, I want to do it as well 😁
Never been on your channel first video I've seen. It was a fun video to watch thank you.
Love watching this after hearing about it on the podcast!
This was such an awesome, awesome video. Such a family vibe. I’m new(er) to BJJ, but if I’m ever in town, I’m coming to roll with Limitless. Great stuff! 🙌🏾
super fun to watch brother!
Glad you enjoyed!
Very cool. This was a neat way to mix things up a bit on the channel.
This was a genius idea! And you are merciless on your wife dude. 😂
haha thanks man! No mercy 😈
Rad video. Can't wait for the gi version.
Thank you! Can't wait to make it.
Yeehaw. Gives me an idea for us.....
Coming to Canada?
He's coming to Tobago 🙌
Great video! Now I need to persuade my gym to do this...
Awesome video!! You could have used graphics and visuals to help explain the rules a little more clearly, that would be next level. Great fun, thanks for this cool Bjj content!
Thanks! I did use graphics though haha
Content right there. Greetz from Germany ur killin it Jordan :)
Closed guard, Bear hug, start telling coach about my dating life BAM instant depression tap.
As always, beautiful. Awesome message.
Thanks man 🙏
Been waiting for this
Great video Jordan. Really creative idea.
Thanks man. Turned out great. I've just got to think of more videos like this which is the hard part haha
Does anyone know what the submission was at 1:53? I can’t figure out where the submission is coming from
It's a sciccor choke. Squeezing the neck with the legs.
Awesome video! What a challenge for everyone
"Not today, UA-cam." hahaha, great video man!
That was fun to watch. Good Stuff
If possible, could we get more NoGi rolling footage of your 1st Black Belt Joey? As a little guy myself, there isn't many little guy BJJ out there so I'd love to see more of him 🙏
Same! Tough for little guys to get manhandled when when using sound technique

@6:27 what move is that?
That was really awesome!!! 👍👏👊
Thanks! Gi challenge video next I promise haha
Great video Jordan from Australia 👍
Can we get more videos of brown belt alex rolling? he's my idol
Definetly! I gotta do some more positional drilling with him for a video. Just gotta be on my A-game haha. He's truly a beast.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu That would be awesome, I love his style and we have similar body types.
He's the guy you don't make eye contact with between rounds lol seriously though, he's so strong, so technically sound, and doesn't get tired, its crazy! He will let blue & purple belts start with an armbar...and get out,
what is the specific name for the sweep at 8:37 called?
Looks like a butterfly scissor sweep? I could be wrong
Best Jiu Jitsu video I've seen in a long time
Good work lady and gentlemen. That would really suck to be the black belts in this situation. Much respect. 🤝
Thank you! Definitely wasn't easy. I was impressed with our cardio. I wasn't sure how it was going to go beforehand haha
NEXT LEVEL CONTENT! A true inspiration 🙌
Thanks Mario! Glad you've enjoyed it 🙏
What a blast, you've got some beasts in there.
Glad you enjoyed it! I really do. Couldn't have asked for a better crew to do this with.
How did you pick the students to go against? Random selection, in house tournament?
Just asked in our facebook group who was down to do it and took the first people that said yes
Sometimes I forget their Canadian but then the say aboat (about) and bust out monopoly money lol. I love our Canadian brothers!
What a GREAT VIDEO 👍👍 love to see this kind of stuff. BMAC over at tenth planet had a similar shark tank video where students got to pick an envelope with money inside if they submitted him, another really fun video. Keep ‘em comin!
Great little piece of content :) I’m from little ole England never stepped on a mat but this was a great insight into the sport genuinely
Very cool to see Nicki rocking live rolls after usually seeing her for uke demonstrating. She's a beast!
"We even let them pick the order" i.e. white belts become cannon fodder 😭
We tried to make it so we would wear them out then send in the big boys to finish the job, but it didn't go exactly as planned lol For Alex not to tap Jordan after 8 rounds with no water or breaks is crazy.
Haha made for a good warm up round. I think they could have strategize better actually.
1:50 awwww so gentle 😄
Aside the money, if it was funny to watch, I wonder to participate were amazing!!!
this was great, Im a big fan!
Thank you! I worked really hard to make this one perfect 🙌
So amazing Alex is no joke Im still having nightmares of our roll a few months ago
The camaraderie 😂😂😂😂 this was awesome lol
Reaallyyyy good content, i enjoyed it
Very entertaining! Well done!
What a cool idea! Best BJJ content on the web!
ALEX reminds me of that anvil type player. They are legit anvils and impossible to move. Very tough guys
Great way to describe him. He's a force that is seriously unlike any other I've felt.
Awesome vid we see a King of the mat in the next?
Definitely
Jordan : had 5 minute rounds for 10 hours straight
Also Jordan : there is only one problem though , we are getting very tired very fast
Awesome thanks
cool vibe your gym has!
Thanks! It's the best!
what a fun video! I love this
