I agree with you coredor. This students suffer on a typical Aikido uke illness, as I call it, practising Aikido +30 years now. After the years it can become as this result when attacking the sensei and always being aware of getting thrown.
Do not hesitate to grab sensei really hard. But be aware there is the same result though.
I'm sorry but they are only falling because they have been trained to fall when they sense his intention to throw. It doesn't do the thrower any service as he doesn't get a chance to really show what he can do. At 1:20 the uke hardly knows what to do, as he misinterpreted his teachers movement and ended up doing a funny hop to try and cover. Entertaining but not a good demo of aikido IMHO.
Actually the students don't fall because they are trained to sense the sensei's instruction to throw. The sensei is trained to control the student's intention. It was done on me once - a very strange feeling. But I understand you. I would'nt believe either if I wouldn't have personal experience.
