Before the final match, the Norwegian wrestling
coach came to Ole and said. " Now, don't forget all the
research we've done on this Russian. He's
never lost a match because of this "pretzel" hold he has.
Whatever you do, do not let him get you in that hold.
If he does, you're finished." Ole nodded in acknowledgement.
As the match started, Ole and the Russian circled
each other several times, looking for an opening. All
of a sudden, the Russian lunged forward, grabbing Ole and
wrapping him up in the dreaded pretzel hold.
A sigh of disappointment arose from the crowd and
the coach buried his face in his hands for he knew all was
lost. He couldn't watch the inevitable happen.
Suddenly, there was a scream, then a cheer from the
crowd and the coach raised his eyes just in time to watch
the Russian go flying up in the air.. His back hit the
mat with a thud and Ole collapsed on top of him making the
pin and winning the match.
The crowd went crazy!! The coach was astounded.
When he finally got his wrestler alone he asked,
"How did you ever get out of that hold? No one has ever done
it before?"
Ole answered, "Vell, I vas ready to give up ven he
got me in dat hold, but at da last moment I opened my eyes
and saw dis pair of testicles right in front of my face----
I had nuttin to lose so wid my last ounce of strength I
stretched out my neck and bit dose babies just as
hard as I could." So the trainer exclaimed, " That's what finished him off?"
"Vel not really. You'd be amazed how strong
you get ven you bite your own balls!!"
