  • I like how Keenan didn't let the fact that he had someone in a chokehold slow him down from singing the song

  • No one messes with Maynard; even Chuck Norris knows better than to stage rush him. This video is made even more awesome by the fact that Maynard is still singing while he's restraining the man, and he does not miss a single note.

  • It's perfectly legal... it's called a collar elbow hip toss, youtube it.., which is a wrestling move stolen from GJJ. Wrestling has been around since ancient roman times, GJJ isn't even a century old, and GJJ is a redesigned form of japanese JJ, the original JJ that samurai's used. Maynard and you can say you learned it from GJJ, but it's from originally from GJJ.

  • @beticanproveyouwrong your english isnt making any since, but i do know Maynard trains under Rickson and was a purple belt at the time or so.

  • That dude is so lucky, I'd love to get hugged, slammed, choked and sat on by Maynard James Keenan.

  • Okay, enough mixed martial arts, maynard wrestled in highschool, everyone learns that head throw the first week of conditioning, and anyone who did one year of wrestling knows how to leg ride, take someones back, and choke them out. Simple as that, this video is very old, way before he started training with one of the Gracies for BJJ.

  • @beticanproveyouwrong Dude, you're an idiot. They did NOT teach Uchi Mata or Rear Naked Chokes in high school wrestling. They might now, out of fear of being dominated by Jiu-Jitsu fighters.

    Either way, it sounds like you just take offense to it, because you wrestle and you think wrestling hangs the moon. Guess what, I wrestled in High School too. This is Jiu-Jitsu, NOT wrestling.

    It also helps that he was interviewed about it & said it was Jiu-Jitsu that he learned from training w/Rickson.

  • @TheCyndicate The throw he does is an uchi mata, but is also commonly referred to in wrestling as a head throw. Maynard wrestled when he was young, he spent time in the military, and he trains in BJJ. Doesn't matter which art you want to attribute it to, truth is truth.

  • @darkveng Like I said above, He HIMSELF said it was BJJ in an interview.

    And also like I said above, I wrestled in high school as well. While they teach takedowns and throws, they do NOT teach an Uchi Mata style throw.

    That's like saying Karate and Boxing are the same, because they both use punches.

  • @beticanproveyouwrong Uh no, it's not. He has been interviewed DIRECTLY about this incident and he says that it is Jiu-Jitsu HIMSELF!!

    I took wrestling in high school too, in a VERY active, hard to wrestle in state(FL).

    NONE of this is taught in wrestling.

    This is just another example of envious wrestlers trying to take credit for something that had nothing to do with wrestling‼

  • @TheCyndicate Bro what ever, I did wrestling in FL too, in fact. Olympic heights highschool in boca raton fl. sent 4 to states that year and our 103 placed 6th. the following year our 215 got 2nd. I knew how to do that shit before i went to top team.

  • @beticanproveyouwrong Dude, you're fucking ridiculous.

    Not only is this NOT a wrestling move, but it would be ILLEGAL.

    GTFO with that garbage.

    And if they taught it in wrestling, then the NCAA wrestlers that were in the original UFC's wouldn't have been DOMINATED by techniques like this.

    Like I said above, he HIMSELF said it was GJJ.

    The world doesn't revolve around you and your experiences.

  • @VideoScenario

    take it easy jerk...does it really matter where their standing? Stop nitpicking and just enjoy the music or gtfo

  • From an inteview:

    AVC: There's a Tool concert clip floating around on YouTube where you appear to choke a fan who runs onstage to embrace you. Was that for real?

    MJK: Yeah, that was a gig where some dickhead got onstage—and it had already been one of those nights where, you know, a lot of things went wrong, and people were testing my patience, and then some kid got on my stage. Sorry!

    

  • The one thing that makes me believe this to be real is when you see Maynard heel the guy in the nuts... And he keeps his heel there like "you're my bitch for everyone to see," this is my stage!

  • fumpsee, its a Gracie Jiu Jitsu throw and Maynard trains with Rickson Gracie.

  • So many douche bags posting on here rofl. If you don't know who tool is, and or you are too much of a fucktard to understand how amazing they are. piss off???

    Maynard is king, sounds like a few pathetic wastes of life saying otherwise, that is about all. Shocker.

  • i believe that would be a judo throw not a jiu jitsu throw

  • @fumpsee actually, it's brazillian jiu-jitsu. although, when it all boils down it doesn't matter what it is - martial arts are martial arts; they all really have the same concept. what one calls it matters not, it's what one does with it that counts.

  • @TheGageTaylor the throw looks like a judo throw. i know the whole choke hold thingy is jiu jitsu. but yeah whatever helps takedown thos damn crazed fans

  • @TheGageTaylor I'm pretty sure the throw is Uchi Mata from Judo. The choke is a Rear Naked Choke from Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

    Judo's founder, Kano Jigoro, had a star student named, Mitsuyo Maeda(aka: "Count Koma"). Mitsuyo Maeda moved to Brazil & taught his "style" to Gastão Gracie. Helio Gracie was too sick to train, so he modified the moves so that weaker people could participate & use them. That's the birth of Brazilian/Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. Jiu-Jitsu is actually wrong. It should be Brazilian Judo.

  • @TheCyndicate interesting. I wouldn't doubt it, you seem to know what you're talkin' about. Though, like Fumpsee said, when it all boils down, martial arts are martial arts. My instructor would say the same thing. In fact, I take Tang Soo Do - we also incorporate Judo & Aikido technique, among others. In any case thanks for the info, interesting stuff. Makes me wanna study that sort of martial art also!

  • @TheGageTaylor Yup, Aikido is directly connected as well, because Kano was a student of Morihei Ueshiba(Aikido's founder). I fully believe that Morihei Ueshiba gave birth to modern MMA. If you read his book, "Budo", you will see how in his instructions, he stated that only in cross-training & incorporating everything can you transcend your limits as well a martial arts.

  • i wish i was that man

  • like a spider

  • Justin, Danny and Adam didnt miss a beat either lol......but fuck that guy, he's probably the reason why Maynard is always in the back now

  • i dont get it ? is this a band or is someone joking around at a talent show ?

  • @dakinebud187 you should jump out your window for not knowing who tool is..

  • @tks00s not knowing Tool ? you're a fucking Tool.

    they suck hair balls and so do you.

    grow up and graduate to real music, stop smoking pole, cut your hair, and get a job.

    Dickwad. LOL TOOL, what a stupid ass name for a stupid ass wannabe band.

  • It's revolting, but I'm a bit sad this didn't happen during "Prison Sex" - hahaha.

  • judo jiu jitsu, and a little bit of masterpiece

  • I wish I was that guy.

  • woot spooning with maynard

  • @L4MD4 i'd be happy.. haha

  • thats fuckin raw

  • Maynard totally kicks him in the balls at 1:52. Awesome.

  • wtf is going on? I thought the dude got thrown off at 1:11, then maynard is spanking him like 20 seconds later....

    wish I'd seen em back when Tool was Tool and no more....

  • that was me that was on stage.

  • what song is he singing

  • @wesclev83 pushit i think...

  • @wesclev83 he was singing pushit

  • OMG OMG OMG MAYNARD JAMES KEENAN. my all time prog her, ive dreamt of this moment all my life, finally all these years of staring at my tool poster i can hug the legend in the flesh......OH SHIT MY FUCKING BACK ARGHHHH lololololol

  • yeah he was probably like "FUCK YEAH!!! A HUG FROM MAYNARD!!!!" which quickly turned into "SHIT HE IS THROWIN ME!!!!" luckiest bastard ever....

  • That was a slick throw, and he got his hooks in immediately. That fan is lucky he wasn't put to sleep.

  • Little did that fan know that maynard had already been having one of his most stressfut nights and that many other things had gone wrong before that guy tried to hug him. Lucky Maynard only sat on him(as Maynard is quite small), lucky he didn't give him a severe beating for pulling such a lame stunt. If that guy had any idea how many jerks maynard has to deal with I don't think he would've tried that ...

  • hey...hey guys!! I'm gonna go say hi to MaynOHSHIT

  • why and how could you even say that?

  • that's how you play a show

  • that's impressive how he kept singing while doing that

  • I would like to be instead this fan ;]

  • This kid is so hucked

  • What?

  • Anybody notice the pwnage at 1:12?

  • dude id let maynard hold me down adn ju jitsu my ass neday

  • Maynard just pwned that guy <3

  • That was legendary

  • Song is pushit and this still is funny every time.

  • anyone know the name of the song?

  • ''pushit''

  • Ha...watch MJK give the guy a heel to the groin at 1:53! hehehehehehe

  • Wow. didn't even notice at first.

  • I like how the guys being strangled and still has his fist in the air going "Yeah!! man".

  • i love it how he pretends it's a hug at first haha

  • this is pure awesomeness...

  • Can this man please speak to the online community and tell us of his enlightenment?

  • haha so awesome. I wanna roll with maynard sometime :)

  • Tool are so fucking amazing

    I love they way he just keeps on singing while there is some random guy from the audience being knocked out by his own Martial Art skills on stage

  • wooo he did a basic flip and immediately took his back with a choke and almost put him to sleep

  • Well, supposedly, this guy who got f'd up has his own website. called Maynard Kicked my ass. I'd like to try to find it. Hell, I'd let Maynard kick my ass. well, not let him, he would anyway.

  • what sucks is my name is ACTUALLY maynard and im not named after this guy but people think i am

  • well he's the better maynard

  • it looked like he did goshi ..judo ftw haha

  • it was just a hip throw, he's a purple belt in brazilian jiu jitsu

  • Maynard is a cool cat. His ego is in check unlike a lot of people with his status. He practiced Gracie Jui Jitsu and did a four year tour in the Army back in the 80's so he is very capable of handing out an ass whoopin if he wanted.

  • well he certainly did there, with one hand, while he was holding the mic in the other lol

  • i want maynard to give me a judo flip hug too im so jealous !!

  • He just keeps going while he beats the guy up!! LOL!!

  • that's awesome=D hahaha

  • Well set up. Look at the way the guy tries to struggle at the start and at the end he contently let's Maynard sit on his back when he isn't pinned down anymore.

  • maynard pwns you.

  • poor miserable f*ck! never even saw it coming.

  • lmao that guy just got pwnt by Maynard! XDDD

  • That's so AWESOME! Haha, he just keeps singing, ah, sooo good.

  • why?

  • RNC with half a hook in...that's our little soldier boy.

  • this is pretty fucking awesome

  • lol its great the way he carries on singing while he's got the guy in a RNC. id love to see them live.

  • Tool always puts on a good show. Further proof.

  • Maynard is so fucking hardcore. What a bad ass.

  • Jajajajaja, i still dont get if Maynard love or hate the guy xDD

  • 20 seconds in... best part of the songg.

  • Maynard didn't learn Jiu jitsu from the gracies he was a wrestler in high school and wrestled at West Point military academy.

  • yes he did...there is even a couple interviews with both of them together talking about stuff.

  • First I have to say that is possibly the most badass thing I have ever seen in a live performance.

    As for you sir get your facts straight. While he does have a wrestling background he also studied BJJ under Rickson Gracie and has spoke about it in interviews. Furthermore that was a jiu jitsu hip throw followed by a rear naked choke, no wrestling involed.

  • i didnt say anything about wrestling! haha??

  • was was a judo hip throw not jiu jitsu

  • wow... hip toss is also jiu jitsu, JJ is judo just without the striking game... study a little bit (oh and if you need the extra info i've been in Gracie Jiu Jitsu since i was 14 and 21 now..)

  • yeah i know that judo is part of jiu jitsu's roots but that is a judo toss also i dont care if you have been in gracie for 30 years gracie is wierd

  • theres a picture of him and dave camarillo and bj penn while they were training at ralph gracies

  • I don't believe Maynard anymore about him saying that he can't chew gum and walk at the same time. He just fucking flipped this guy over, put him in a head lock, sat on top of him and still kept singing all at the same time!

  • haha faget

  • I bet that guy was freaking the hell out.

  • i have this whole show on VHS, and this stunt was indeed planned...Maynard says something at the end of the song, but can't remember what exactly.

  • Omg, what happens next? Did he punch the guy or he was kidding or WTF?!

  • lmao!..the show must go on

  • Uki Goshi....

  • its a judo throw then rear naked choke... the choke is BJJ (brazillian jujitsu)

  • Comment removed

  • Nothing fancy, it's just a judo hip toss. Never knew he kept singing though!

  • i think its jiujitsu, i read somewhere that maynard studied brazilian jiujitsu under the gracies.

  • looks like akido, anyway maynard fuckin rocks. i wish that was me getin throw like that maynard keep signin right in his ear hell yea!

  • i wish i was the guy

  • what the fuck happened here man...

    that guy s on drugs, but there s something wrong with him after maynard grabbed him...

    looks scary dude... like hes dyin or something. and i hate the quality of the vid.

  • I think maynard raped this guy when the lights went off. hahaha

  • definitely planned, listen to the lyrics=) but. all in all very impressive. much better than the performers today who can't even do live shows without sounding like total Arse

  • this is judo not jiu jitsu. and it looked very planned out.

  • Since Jiu Jitsu has branched from Judo, there is a lot which is similar. These techniques can be found in either art.

  • i understand that but maynard never studied jiu jitsu. and its an o goshi hip toss which isnt in the modern form of jiu jitsu.

  • That was funny as hell xD And lol, he was singing while doing that martial-arts thing. Maynard is godlike :)

  • HAHA That's fucking fantastic, I love that crazy bastard.

  • What I can't figure out is if it was staged for the sake of irony (singing about pushing and shoving while taking someone down) or if the guy was legitimately trying to involve himself in the show unannounced.

  • IPPON!!

  • Its called O goshi, its a Judo hip toss.

  • not necessarily judo- many martial arts have hip tosses e.g. wrestling.

  • yes they do, but its still Judo. Hip toss is a general term.

  • That was awsome that guy will have a story to tell his kids one day. It must have felt good to get slamed by Maynard James Keenan.

  • HAHAHA this is the funniest video i've ever seen on youtube i think he made that dude cry too

  • the guy didnt cry at all he had his hands raised in the air well maynard had him in a head lock did you even watch ??

  • im sayin after all is done. he's like shaking violently. i'd be scared too if maynard was on top of me too, missionary style. i'd probably be caught in the undertow.

  • hahahah

  • hahaha^^. was it joking right ?? but it was a great take down.

  • for some reason thinking about maynard doing his jue-jitsue in me turns me on a bit

  • Maynard is trained by Rickson Gracie (pronounced HICKSON). He even got his hooks in...nice!

  • there have been many twisted people doing many twisted things and still achieve fame, if i found out the whole band raped children (yes this is an exaggeration) i would still think the music and the band was beautiful!

    as far as it being staged well the only way to know would be to ask him or try that shit yourself!

  • lmao, maynards my favourite freak, squeal like a man PIG

  • I thought that was funny as hell !!! Guess he didn't want a 3-some on stage , 'cuz that other kid got tossed back into the crowd by security guy !

  • Hahahahahaha, Mate you would get slapped about probally don't try to act hard on youtube it's silly

  • I'm so fucking jealous now!

    Rape Me Maynard Rape Me!!

    :D

  • He used to be in the army :D

  • i would love for maynard to hump on me while sining at a concert... that guy is a god to his friends for being raped by maynard...

  • shit throw. he'd never have pulled that off if the guy didn't go over willingly...

  • Yes, very shit throw... I always thought that and wondered if there was a minion involved. But then again we're all minions in a way.. kinda. I'm sure you get it, right Jesus?

  • you're dead wrong pal. it's a judo move and a very effective one at that. notice the sweep with the right leg right before the guy gets thrown. with that move the smallest guy in the room can toss the biggest guy flat on his back. he probably learned that move while in the army during hand to hand combat training.

  • not really...

    for a major hip he needs to get in tighter, pull the guys head below his and not drop his own head. he doesn't bend his knees and just uses the strength in his back - you can tell because the throw is so slow. if the guy being thrown just dropped his weight he'd have still been standing. this shit was staged.

  • i studied ju jitsu for 8 years. that is a ju jitsu and judo technique, its just a basic hip throw. ju jitsu is a japanese art combining various martial arts, judo just being one of them so yeah you are right but wrong at the same time.

  • lol hahahahaha oh man. Maynards signature move: hug, to shoulder throw, to rnc to sweat all over your ass while he finishes the song.

  • he rapes men, as shown. lol fag

  • That video made me think that Maynard is the man.... and that guy want his finger shoved up his ass....

  • HAH! He throws the guy, keeps singing whilst having him in a choke hold - and the guy has his fist in the air like "YES! I JUST GOT DECKED BY MAYNARD!"

  • Where was this filmed? I love Tool but I don't know if I'd like a sweaty Maynard choke'n me/spooning me on stage...but if that's the closest I'd come to greatness then so be it...

  • Maynard Vs Wanderlei Silva

    =P

  • Plant or not, I love how he keeps singing even while throwing the guy to the ground.

  • jajajaja

  • lmao

    this cracks me up everytime

  • Ever see a living legend? You just did. :)

  • I can almost assure you this was planned and this guys was a plant -- TOOL security and their record label is not going to let some idiot with who knows what in his pocket (knife, gun..?) just wrestle around with Maynard.

  • What a clever stage device! hahaha I think he's a plant.

  • at like 1:54 he totally foots the guy in the nads,,,ouch!

  • God knows jui jitsu

    MAYNARD IS THE SMARTES MAN IN THE WHOLE WORLD YOU CANT DENY IT!

  • lol martydoc789, maynard isn't smart, he isn't special.. thats what he wants people to realize, have you ever heard the lyrics? there is no such thing as "smart" there are those who have had experiences in their lives.. and theres the people that haven't, thus less experienced. he has experiences, and write about them. thats called intelligence

    thourgh experience you gain intelligence

  • I disagree with that. I think people are born with a certain degree of intelligence. Knowledge and experience are separate entities that aid one's intelligence.

  • that was what i mean, experience is something you gain throughout life.. knowledge is something that can be obtained as soon as you gain self awareness at a age of arond 10 years old but experience us something else, hard to explain but they aid the same purpose.. hence intellect

  • No, I think you misunderstood me. Intelligence, knowledge, and experience are completely separate entities. Knowledge + exprience != intelligence. That's what I was trying to say.

  • yeah, ok :) i can agree with that. really i misunderstood heh my bad

  • Lol, you said 'entities'...

  • duude thats badass. i love how he keeps singing while hes choking that guy

  • LMFAO wtf? wow...didnt expect that -.-

  • wasnt it maynard that said he couldnt do 2 things at a time

  • The guy he flipped is on something, I do believe. also, Maynard is now my hero.

  • That's awesome. And he continues singing.

  • ok seriously people, sure the fan might be a little dumb to run up on stage and maybe get in shit for it, but when maynard was on his back afterwards did you see maynard pat his back? maynard was not pissed he was patting his back as if saying "youll be fine buddy"

    i cant tell is the fan trying to block his view or trying to give him a hug?

    i would be honoured to be hip tossed by keenan! as long as i didnt break any bones in the process lol... im not sure if he would break bones of a fan

  • that choke was tight! =]

    Maynard by Rear Naked Choke!

  • MJK is fucking awesome. And of course he keeps singing.  Badass.

  • Maynard was actually an all state wrestler, and that person found out why.

  • i would be honored for any member of tool to do that accept danny carey cause he would probally kill me

  • I think the Massage is dont disturb him when hes in the zone, he will do a rear naked choke on ur ass
