My coach at my first tournament: "don't worry, your opponent is a white belt too."
The white belt:
@@Jamesbradley001 rip bro
@@Jamesbradley001 you won obviously, right?
@@epicboi3213 🤣🤣
Yeah, happened to me on an “amateur” judo white belts tournament. Faced a BJJ purple belt, the guy was so proud after he beat me… what a prick.
@@epicboi3213 he played with me for a few mins then got me with a RNC
Should have interviewed the brown belts. Those guys were probably having an existential crisis.
They prob rage quit and went home
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 made my day
Hahahaha best comment ever
Lol 😂😂
😂😂😂
He should've followed every submission with "I can't believe it actually worked!" The brown belts would tap again from emotional damage lol
Hahahaha
That made me laugh out loud 😅😂😂😂😂
hahahahahahahahaha
Yeah, or during the fight keep saying, "I saw a guy do this on TH-cam."
"First day also ?" to a brown belt
Besides just being funny, this is a fantastic ego check for the gym and a reminder to take all your training partners seriously.
Learnt this the hard way 😂😂
Exactly. They don't know if he's a Sambo master or a D1 wrestler (or a BJJ black belt) wearing a white belt. It's the same in a street situation, you have no idea what you're up against until its too late.
Yes. I was gonna say the same thing. I have to imagine each of these guys realized they were in over their heads in shit well after it was too late lol
Especially when a new white belt come in to town and the professor is recording his rolls and that's the only time you are on the footage after years of training :D
They all know he isn’t really a white belt there is now way.
It's the little things that really give it away. All the micro adjustments timed just right. People can be very talented and do powerful stuff, but no one can adjust to every obstacle like that without an insane amount of mat-hours.
Micro adjustments. Haven't heard that one in a while. Takes me back lol
Arthur is a super good blackbelt!
Great points
Speaking of little things, his ears are a huge red flag too lmao.
Real sneaky like
Goes to show how great your students are Jordan that they take the losses so well when they thought he was a white belt. Good group of humble people.
Truly a great group!
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsuI tried a bit of Hapkido many years ago and I didn't like my Instructor. Not all martial arts people are kind.
It's been WAY too long since anyone's successfully pulled off a bjj fake white belt prank. Glad you were able to set this up! This was awesome.
Ya for me this one wasn’t as good because besides the belt itself, he was legit just crushing/sweeping everyone extremely easily. Any blue belt+ would immediately know this is not a white belt whatsoever
What the purpose of such pranks other than the humiliation of it?
@@collybeans586 The fun of it when you watch it and when you experience it.
This was one of the best ones for sure
What stood out to me is that no one had an ego or got upset when the "white belt" beat them. That's the sign of a professor that teaches the proper values of the sport to his students. Practice is to learn, and this will teach them a lot.
I agree that Jordan's students are lucky to have him as an instructor, BUT, I think Jordan is also lucky to have such a great bunch of students.
100%. Everyone handled it so well. I was very proud.
but is his house in order, thats the real question
@@raregoodds3143 his floor is clean, he wipes it with all these guys.
I will visit Jordan's gym some day. I watch a lot of his videos. I am actually a white belt 😂
As an actual white belt who started 2 months ago, seeing this made me laugh, yet appreciate the art more. There's so much to learn! Awesome vid!
The fact that a prank like this works is a sign of a legit martial art
You should always be aware of your surroundings and the atmosphere of the room and spirits of those your about to face, if you see in your minds eye that something is off then its your choice to call it out , but if you think its beneficial for the team even if short term to remain silent then its on you , but such is the way of our deceitful world now , blurred is the path between black and white, and its smoothed over as a joke again and again. But its all good because someone learned something, yeah they got a first hand lesson in ninjitsu, or worse..

@marceloricci78
Great vid brother
This video gave me a laugh. Many who are watching this have probably already seen the other 'BJJ Black Belt Pretends to Be White Belt' prank, and I'm glad that there's more of that content on TH-cam now :)
I haven't done any martial arts since I was a child, but just seeing how smooth he is with his transitions shows he has THOUSANDS of hours on the mat. His ability to adjust in milliseconds is insane
“I do a lot of Kung Fu and watch Jordon’s videos.” 🤣 This turned out amazing and was everything I expected it to be. Awesome job to the both of you for playing it off well, although his slick moves were certainly fishy. 🧐 Genius play by him to keep trying during the live guard passing drills. Definitely a white belt move! This was worth the wait.
what kind of kung fu are you doing man 💀
The timed sweep off the pass against the Brown belt reveals his elite skill level
His grips alone told me he was a high end black belt
Then his foot placement on passing was incredible. Had to rewatch a few of his passes 4-5 times before I figured out how they worked.
Yeah I would have called bs within 10 seconds
Fr. His passes but especially some submissions were way to advance for someone only training “a couple of days”. Surely they edited out ppl calling bs. Right?
hey I know its been 2 years but can you share the time stamps for guard passes and grips that you noticed
I’ve been out of BJJ for over 6 months and this makes me want to get back on the mats. He made transitions look so easy and seamless
Do it get back on the mat brother
Do it! I just got back to the mat after 10 months. At first, I was beating myself up for not practicing since I saw peers on social media going up in belt rank and then I got imposter syndrome but I missed. This is also Ego ps my ego was bruised and did not want to go back. I had to learn if don't drill and practice it won't come back and I didn't want to fall too far behind.
Collective sighs of relief... lol Love this kind of prank. Being a blue belt myself, I can completely relate to those guys... Great watch!
“I do a lot of Kung Fu…”
Man that one had me rollin 🤣
Props to the dude at 5:32 for complimenting the “white belt” at the cost of his own ego - takes a certain maturity to do that without making excuses
Separately: It’s neat how you can “feel” that a person is experienced or skilled within seconds of a role…
I know “game recognizes game” in all sports but it’s an extra cool experience in BJJ because it’s happening to ur body, as opposed to just being observed: 8:24
The attitude of the students was great. You can see the respect and enthusiasm to just getting better being the focus. This is the type of gym I would like to be in. They all seem skilled and trained. Awesome and fun video! Never underestimate your opponent.
Because of videos like this, I immediately suspect every new white belt that walks through the door lol
This really an example of “A black belt is just a white belt who never gave up.”
Everyone was a white belt at one point so be humble and don’t put people down ❤️
Exactly! The time will pass anyway. Might as well use it for training and becoming a black belt one day.
Is it not the inverse? A black belt is a white belt who never gave up lol
@@Adel-pi2rw omg wait you're right i messed it up lol
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsugonna use this as a quote. This is really good in other aspects of life too
It was a blast!! Thanks to Arthur and his guys for helping us pull this off 😉😉 was pretty funny watching everyone 😂
You are pretty 😊
Damn dem juicy tits
@@Sulamanjansulttaani lol relax creep
He was slow, methodical, and just smooth. No brute strength, no hyper speed, like water flowing around wrapping these guys up to their obvious frustration.
The black belt is like a spider monkey!
His situational awareness, and and ability to react to and neutralize attacks before they were able to be completed was just beautiful to watch.
Obviously a seriously high level player!🫡
It's crazy how it's just the "feeling" the adjustment and movement... sensitivity and flow... one day hopefully for myself I can get there. Just keep rolling and learning! Love it!!!
It’s hereeee!!!!
Finally haha! Thanks for doing this 🙏
professor ，your acting and your bjj are the best
This is why i feel you should treat every new guy like a black belt but even at the higher belt levels still feel like a new student because you can always learn something. Youre always growing as a grappler. stay humble
8:16
Hahahahaha I love this guys reaction🤣 good stuff lads!
Jeez I sound super Canadian when I hear myself talk lol
It was a great night! The reactions were priceless 🤣
Nice to see how everyone was very humble around you despite maybe being a bit surprised at how skillful the "white belt" is. I'm a blue belt myself, and I'm super fortunate to train in an academy where the head coach always creates such a positive learning environment. Despite that, I've seen my fair share of high ranking white belts or blue belts who let their ego get the best of them. One white belt actually hyperextended the new guy's arm out of frustration that the new guy was able to deflect all his previous submissions attempts
From what I gathered in my years of training (nothing compared to the black belts of course), yes you can have better technique and more experience, but that doesn't guarantee that you'll be dominant during a fight. Even without any martial arts experience, the new guy can be good based on a naturally fast reaction time, being a fast learner, physically taller and heavier etc. In addition to partnering with higher ranking belts to learn technical skills better, I also found it really helpful to work with the white belts that give me a hard time, because I can work on my weaknesses and solidify my knowledge by teaching them stuff. And just a bonus, try to use an advantage you have that most of your teammates can't do (mine is doing the oversplits), it may help you out during a crucial point of the fight
Basically, no matter what rank you're in right now, stay humble and be open to learning from anyone. When a lower ranking belt gives you a hard time, instead of getting angry, take it as an opportunity to better your skills. Who knows, you might learn something from the new guy in terms of fighting strategies
Good point and so true. Many ppl avoid training with white belt or just dont take it seriously. And if somethong goes wrong, its always the fault of the white belt!
I learned things i ONLY could learn with beginners, that is, to really adapt to "mistakes" the beginner makes, and suddenly, magic magic, once tuned into the beginners mind, a great practise.
Dont patronize beginners, or try to "teach" them, just learnfrom their beginners mind and attitude.
@@JustMe-vz3wd Exactly, I really like rolling with white belts that are much taller and heavier than me, because I know in the real world, people don't play by the rules in street fights. Combat wise, I find that they can attack/defend with an outside of the box method, so sometimes I can end up learning something from them that I may never encounter from seasoned BJJ veterans
I was cheesin throughout the whole video. Your ability to keep a straight face in the video is godlike. Oh and never have i seen a cleaner shot ad before. Your video editing and shooting have gotten soooooo good. Nice to see everybody in the gym and hear them talk too😁 Keep up the good work and thanks for the fun video!
That’s Arther Zuka, he’s a high level BB champ and really great coach.
Thank you. Searched "Arthur" and couldn't find any videos lol. They should fix his name in the comments.
My son just started Bjj and this came up in my recommend while trying to educate myself. Great video. Everyone had an incredible demeanor and seem like awesome folks. I'd bring my boy here anytime if that's always the vibe. Thanks for positing
Yeah, it obviously depends on the place (there are some very mean parts of the BJJ community) but they are mostly like this when practicing and rolling.
And have in mind that i'm someone that kind of dislikes BJJ lol, i have been practicing Judo since i was 4 years and i did have issues with the BJJ people but i can totally recomend it anyways
This videos are always fun to watch.
It's nice to see your team is very humble even after getting destroyed by a brand new white belt.. lol :)
I love these kind of videos. Good humbling exp. Dude was legit..
What he said about the vibes of the place, the people & bringing his own guys to a select of places is golden. Also about the place being lucky to have Jordan. 💪🙌 respect ✊
It's always cool to see a black belt roll someone right up.
That blue belt was fighting the arm bar like a title was on the line hahaha. I think Arthur was looking at the camera like “why doesn’t this dude just tap??”
Something I love about BJJ is that you can close your eyes when rolling with your opponent and pretty much guess their belt level.
"What the hell kinda Kung Fu?" Lmao. I come back to this video every now again. Love it.
Honestly, this gym seems amazing. The higher belts had no ego and were smiling even while losing to a “white belt”. Definitely a great place to train.
Love the little "good job" the brown belt gives him at 2:55. Humiltty!
Thanks man. Our gym culture is something I'm really proud of.
Had lots of fun watching, thanks :-). The kung fu line was awesome.
Really cool video, thanks for all the great content!
Black belt pretending to be white belt is like 1000000 x times better than the other way around x)
“I thought I was gonna get him with a kimura, but then he ripped my arm off” 😂
After the initial surprise, purple belts and above would catch on very quickly that the white belt was a stooge. I love these pranks, done with humour and a generous spirit, big props to all concerned.
The next visiting white belt is going to be dealing with the repercussions of this roll. 😆🤣
Definitely think the praise was well deserved. Great video. 👏👍👊
They are wondering why they black out of two second roll😄😄
I laughed so hard at the end, "i've done a lot of Kung-Fu" hahahaha Great video
The interviews at the end were classic. Great prank Jordan and Black Belt Ninja!!
That was demoralising for the teachers
The "kung fu" line excuse he used was taken from the first great prank BJJ video at Beltcher's studio. ;)
The amount confidence that went down for some of those guys 😂
Really enjoyed the podcast, will definitely keep up with future episodes 👍🏻
I appreciate that so much. Makes me really happy you enjoyed it. I can't wait to make epsode 2!
Love the transitions. And the submissions, especially the armbars. He never pulled them to a straight arm or risked any injury , just held it there and gained more control. Says a lot about the people who roll just to hurt someone, this guy could have broke a lot of limbs.
Exactly. True control = real skill 🙂
@JordanTeachesJiujitsu couldn't agree more brother
I agree about the straight arm bars, it hurts when newbies pull those
Its the little things that gives him away, yea… like that insane guard retention 👀 and that bolo sweep, i know your videos are awsome Jordan but i did not know that you had a hyperbolic time chamber program in there. Great vid btw, this is a format i love, gj with your edits too, they have improved a lot
Hahahah I can just imagine what they're all feeling and thinking as well. Sometimes you do get really good "beginner" white belts that come through. You just have to leave your ego at the door. BJJ is a very humbling sport.
0:47 Damn you guys really mixed that water well 😂 Got to make sure the hydrogen isn't too clumped up
4:40 When u don't wanna tap to a white belt :D
i was like ok, its on but maybe i can get out, but he just didn't want to hurt me and let me try to work but i was not getting out lol He was being very nice and not cranking it hard. he was a good dude, very nice.
@@uke_mike You fought it well!
Amazing. Such an awesome sport and I love how you can’t tell just by looking at someone, what they are capable of. Super humble as well.
Well put, man. The culture is one of the best things about Jiu-Jitsu. And one of the main reasons why I love it so much.
This is hilarious!!! Thank you for pulling this off!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hearing personal stories at the end was the best,
I’m two weeks back Into my return to JJ after covid stopped me and life got in the way.
EXCITED to be back
The fact that he had no signs of cauliflower ears probably helped too😂
4:50 he’s like, do you want me to break it or what? Lol
😅
This was a very funny and super cool video. That was a clever lesson to teach your students. Even though BJJ isn't for me, ( I tried it out for about 4 months), I really enjoyed watching this. The reaction from your students was priceless!
Been waiting for a video like this for a long time, since Alex Vamos made one. Great content Jordan 🔥
4:39 his ass did not want to tap to a white belt 😭😭😭
Alex Vamos was the smoothest prank black belt I saw; the guy is silky smooth, a top black belt. Every move was total control and slow death.
I love these pranks. He didnt hold back at all.
That brown belt saying “I just got swept by a white belt” is having a freaking mental breakdown 😂
Always loved these white belt pranks since I saw Alex vamos doing it years ago. 😄👍
When a martial artist is being instructed by his sensei, the student will always wear a white belt rather than his qualification belt (black for example) as a mark of respect for the teacher.
That sounds like a great practice 🙏
I thought the well worn Gi would have been a give away! Haha this is class though
Title should be "gaslighting jits by pretending not to be black belt" 😂💀
What was that video shot with? The quality is amazing. Very fun video too!
Sony a7siii with a 22mm lense. Makes such beautiful footage 🙂
The fake white belt vids are too funny on video because we can see the little nuance that gives it away. I'm sure as soon as he got his hands on them, spidey senses went off lol. That back take at 2:04 though 🔥
Besides being a funny prank, this is also an excellent way of teaching BJJ students how to check their ego.
Very true! I'm so happy with all my students. They all took it so well!
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu exactly. Even I was proud of them. Great job, bro. Ouss
This guy is so good. He makes it look easy.
He's definitely top tier
Your gym seems like an amazing vibe. Would love to maybe come in to train one day
Thank you! I hope you do!
Good details to execute the prank perfectly; skinny lanky dude with no sign of cauliflower ear, no rashguard just a regular shirt inside the gi, which is definitely oversized too. The "brand new" white belt look is all there.
This guy just didn't seem like a person to be enlightened and moral but after hearing him talk I could tell he's not just devoted into his craft but he makes it his lifestyle and truly puts himself in the position to fully succeed
Zuka is an Ontario legend
100%
Are there more videos of him. I would love to see him roll some more. Ty
This was brilliant 😂😂😂 great prank Jordan 👍🏻
I know nothing about any martial arts, but i'm subscribing to this channel because this was freakin great!
I appreciate that, thank you!
Yeah, he's got some great Kung Fu for sure!
“He watches my channel” 😂😂😂 i love this video!
Now, I don't wanna sound like an arrogant guy, but at 2:35 ... the moment he extends his left leg, I would have known he ain't a white belt. We've once had a judo national champion coming in and posing as a white belt. I knew after 10 seconds rolling, that something was fishy. There are some movements a white belt (or even a blue belt) won't do. Using a leg for distance management, while controlling the arms, is one of them.
i get what you're saying but we didn't watch him like you did in the video, we just rolled like normal or drilled like normal and were focusing on ourselves not him, its easier to see when the whole picture is highlighted. I didn't see him drilling but i rolled him and got wrecked, there must have been over 45 ppl there. but like i said i get what you're saying
@@uke_mike I hear ya. And I agree, it's probably easy to write this here from my couch, where I had already seen the title of the video and can focus on many things.
The “did I get him?” Look had me 💀 😂😂😂😂
Yeah lol, it was a good moment 😅
this is really funny for me because he sort of moves like my coach, very deliberate and snake-like :D I would be pretty suspicious about him after a min or two into a roll hahahah.
good stuff :)
Thanks! That's why I tried to do short drills and rounds so people wouldn't get too suspicious. By the end a few knew something was up though!
Last guy was mad but passive/humble about it 😂💯
It's all fun and games until someone does this at a tournament. In one of my white belt tournaments, I faced a Judo black belt. Yeah, those skills transfer bro. He tapped everyone except me in under 10 seconds. It took him 3 minutes to get me. Everyone knew.
That's sorry sportsmanship. They should have leveled him up some for a tournament.
This video was awesome. Super funny and interesting. Keep up the great content
God is good Jesus is good God bless you all Amen❤❤❤
"Thats some crazy kung fu man" 😂😂😂😂😂👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
😅
I just laughed out loud in bed in the middle of the night when the first brown belt got swept. Dudes world was rocked, poor bastard lol.
I know Arther! He was my nogi instructor back when he was a purple belt. Best teacher I've ever had.
Not the same experience but going into a BJJ class with a white belt on whilst being a Judo blue belt has been one of my favourite things.
"I thought I was gonna get him with that Kimura, but then he ripped my arm off, I had no idea what was going on!"
hahahahha
6:50 had this talk with myself too many times after get smashed hahahaha
haha me too 🤣
