AHH! I want to hear the rest of this lecture but I'm 20 years old :( are you really going to force me to buy the Bullyproof program just to watch it?? lol guess I'll be teach my nephew this program now ha
Its a great message they are sending out to children, but by the time you turn into an adult, the choice should be up to you. As humans we are always going to have a fascination with experimenting with our conciousness. Simple as that. Drugs can ruin a lot of lives, especially hardcore drugs, which you should always stay away from. Marijuana, even some pyschedelics can be beneifical if used appropriately.
the message they're sending is completely understandable in the context. No child should take drugs before they have developed physically and as a person too. But once they have fully formed their personality, say at age 18 perhaps, the choice should be up to them. Doing weed will not ruin your life, crack or heroin will. Then again so will alcohol and cigarettes... Just smoke weed and be happy. I had a smoke last night and im going to jj in an hour, i feel so great
I both smoke weed ando bjj and muay thai. Its obviously not the best choice for any athlete to do, if he wants to stay in top physical shape, but if your just trying to have fun and learn some self defense, or just enjoy the art itself smoking pot really isnt that much of a problem, i go to college and have a job along with my hobbies and i smoke weed like everyother day give or take. Its not some sneaky thing thats gonna come and ruin your life. if it does its your fault not the plant's.
Im so addicted to Jiu Jitsu, I quit smoking weed. I quit smoking cigarettes, I quit drinking, and I stopped playing video games. I now play Jiu Jitsu games at NAGA, Grapplers Quest, and IBJJF. I quit eating fast food. Im a Jitsu Junkie. When im not in the gym, I go to youtube to get my fix. Thanks guys, you saved my life.
Drugs are not the problem, addiction is. Even if it is an addiction to Ju-Jitsu. Drugs have a dark side, sure, but they have a light side too. Use drugs well and they can lead to greater realisation of universal truth. The law is irrelevant ... use your own judgement. I say try things twice, then decide. Just doing what you are told is not deciding. Please do learn to say no to things ... because then you can truly choose to say yes to things.
My opinion on weed: If you want to do it, I can't come up with any logical, moral reason why I shouldn't let you. However, trying to convince other people to do it is like forcing them to convert to your religion. Fucking annoying.
HOWEVER, weed, like any product, costs lots of MONEY over time. I can think of 1000 better ways to spend it, like that Gracie Garage you've wanted to build, or some new MMA gloves. I never want to become physically addicted to any kind of money sink like weed.
I love the message, but my grandfather has been smokin weed, my father has been smoking weed, and I smoke weed. And we still do sports, good jobs, doctor and judge of a court. You can smoke weed and still live a normal life. just keep in mind not to cross the line
@GracieAcademy , what do you guy's think about weed as a whole? I don't really consider that a drug because most of the propaganda have been disproved, and you both live in a medical marijuana state. I understand cigarettes and alcohol, and anything else because those CAN and DO actually kill people. A few people that do GJJ smoke alot (not cigarettes) and are perfectly fine, one of them being Joe Rogan. I completely understand and respect your views, but I was just curious.
@iMThrill I'm pretty sure they group it into the same category as every other drug. Even legal drugs. Because it alters your state of mind, much like alcohol. Unless you have a legitimate medical reason for smoking it, there's no reason to do it.
While I don't believe marijuana is physically more dangerous as tobacco or alcohol, it's just as addictive if not more so. My opinion is that only the weak minded have the need to escape reality via mind altering drugs of any kind.
@bjapan96 True, some people do use marijuana for medicinal purposes. I have no problem with that. However, in my experience, the VAST MAJORITY of people who possess medical marijuana permits in the US are perfectly healthy people with no legitimate medical need for the drug.
I'm not saying I have any moral problem with recreational use, I'm just trying to keep it real.
I've never heard that smoking reduces risk from lung cancer. Even if it does, I'm not interested in smoking.
Interesting how they point out about Alcohol and smoking being drugs.In the UK whr thr is a population of around 56 million over 100,000 die each year as a direct result of smoking & over 10,000 people die of a direct result of drinking. When you look at that as a %age of the population that is fairly unbeleivable. Yet the socially considered worst drugs, Smack Coke/Crack E's there are less than 1000 people that die collectively from these, its about 200 fom smack and 400 from E's,Coke/Crack.
I started smoking weed when I was 13, I'm 21 now and occasionally smoke weed, it's nice and relaxing. Ask Eddie Bravo and Joe Rogan how badly weed effects his BJJ.
to be honest i think rener is making a bigger deal of drugs than they are. I'm sure someone as disciplined as him can try alcohol or weed a few times and never touch it again. They're not THAT addictive, and I'm pretty sure weed isn't addictive at all. but i understand where they are coming from. Rorion must be proud :)
well said guy's this is the first time i have been told that smoking and alcohol is a drug.I know there drug's but there are many people that don't realise it and think weed pill's and so on are drug's and alcohol is different well there the same.thanks again ryron see you in miami hopefully
I don't think you guys are addressing the real issue. Junk food is just as addictive and very bad for you, it can kill you at a very young age, computer games are addictive and people have died from playing computer games so much that they died of malnutrition because they forgot to eat and drink.
Many things are addictive and very harmful, people just need to moderate and monitor their health. Too few people in this world watch their health.
You guys are the best. This is a very good video for kids and adults likewise. The only thing I might disagree with is that Weed is always a negative. Weed can either destroy your life if you let it or it can enhance your life. Joe Rogan who practices BJJ swears it enhances his workout and his BJJ, as do other fighters and athletes alike. For kids I dont recommend it. For adults who have control in their life it can be very beneficial to them, but dont let it run your life.
This is kind of weird, especially since Eddie Bravo is such a huge pothead. I never have used drugs in my life, but when I used to wrestle, I knew a guy who was a much better wrestler than me, and he smoked weed, and sold weed too, haha. A few of my former college professors also used drugs. In high school, I felt kind of weird, it seemed that I was the only one that didnt do drugs, and a lot of people that did are quite successful right now.
me and some of my team mates go drinking sometimes but we always abstain when we have a fight coming up (mma). i dont believe that alcohol is dangerous to you as long as u dont drink too often its fine.
and also i find it funny that these guys are anti marijuana when eddie bravo says its good for you. i dont whos right anymore
I have smoked weed for about a year. I am 16 and am on the basketball team as well as doing Jiu-Jitsu for 2 and a half years and studying Muay Thai. I had a 3.3 GPA, and am going on to advanced placement classes next year. I am a hard worker and mow lawn for money. I also run a 6 minute mile, which was my fastest by far and I ran it a month after I start smoking. I am not trying to brag, but open your eyes weed is natural and is an ancient practice, EVEN MORE ANCIENT THEN JIU-JITSU.
@skemeB34 I mean, I dont mean to sound arrogant, but you could say if that I stopped drinking soda, stopped sleeping in, stopped eating un healthy, ran more, etc. I would be healthier. I prefer to enjoy my time in life and weed is fun. The Gracie's can not deny that.
I was dependent on caffeine for nearly fifteen years. I've been clean for eight months. Even something as commonly sold as soft drinks can be dangerous and unhealthy. Listen well to these guys.
Ryron and Rener are absolutely right in this video. Maximum respect.
While the dangers of marijuana are debatable, KIDS AND TEENAGERS should definitely NOT be using marijuana.
Personally, I think even for young adults and adults though the medicinal benefits of marijuana are overexaggerated. Medicinal marijuana can have some pretty nasty side effects, and chronic use of marijuana leads to a host of problems including memory loss.
I started smoking weed when i was 12, then at 16 i started doing crack, at 17 i was sucking dick at public bathrooms to feed my addiction. I wish i had seen that video when i was younger, could have saved me the trouble
weed is not very bad though, only way its good though is if you buy weed buy its self, dont trust anyone elses weed though because that stuff can be easily laced but...if you grow it or buy it from the weed shops then...:)
Heroin,Crack,Coke,Alcohol,Nicotine,Government LEGALIZED pills,those are bad for you and destroy lives,but to say weed and Heroin in the same sentence is crazy,I mean look at Eddie Bravo, He smokes dank all the time,and he picked apart a Gracie (I never knew who :\ ) But I understand,there isn't anything wrong with what there saying. Just avoid the ignorance. Educate yourself and learn about the "Bad Guy"
You guys need to chill out! This video is geared towards children. I'm sure these guys know that Mary Jane has Medicinal Properties, I mean it's hard to ignore the facts that are in front of your face. Children shouldn't get their hands on nor should they consume ANY type of drugs including cough medications and painkillers.
Hello Rener and Ryron!! This video is very important. In my opinion, I believe, it would have to be in more languages. Thank you boys, your work is fantastic...
i agree was smoking weed when i first started mma/wrestling and now ive been sober 2 years and feel much better about everything. even weed can be bad
i use 2 be a hardcore smoker (cigars and cigs.) a did a lil bit of drugs and still tryed 2 do mma. and i could never do it. i quit smoking to get in shape and learn tha art of gjj but sadly im in ohio and not many people around here like me, so all i have to train with is tha gracie dvds, witch i had for about a year or 2 now. and im happy 2 say, i feel better about myself in some manner that i quit smoking and train in tha art of gjj.
What they 're talking about when talking about drugs is a substance that brings addiction. If you smoke pot to recover faster, it is not a drug in the way they mean. But anything you get addict to can be considered as a drug. There, Bjj is my drug, and I won't quit it.
seriously all of you need to shut the fuck up ok you all probably dont know shit about jiu jitsu royce would kick your ass so shut the hell up about steroids and shit
The BEST way to PREVENT bullying (perhaps not the only way) is to teach your child good SOCIAL SKILLS and help them develop a few good FRIENDS who will stick up for each other.
Serious bullying does not happen to the somewhat popular kid who always has a few good friends around them. Bullys pick on isolated children.
It IS the parents responsibility to help their child develop friendship making abilities. Learn BJJ for sport participation yes, but ALSO learn social skills.
It's clear this is geared for children. So it's not worth arguing if alcohol should be grouped with heroin, for children they are on the same list of things you don't do.
@nubemuffin that is a very clever point, first, do some research, try to spell the guy's name right so you don't look like a tool. Also, an English class may help you out with that grammar problem. Please, appreciate the free advice.
@brettgoudy yeah, sad huh? but I think when they say "gracie family doesnt do drugs", they only refer to this lineage Helio-Rorion-Rorions kids. COz if its the whole gracie family, that would not be true a 100% (I heared Ryan over dosed too, Im not sure, RIP Ryan)
i agree with dangraves3031 but yes young children shouldent smoke till there old enough to relize when its getting in the way of school or interfering with there life in other ways... i smoke weed and i have for years now and i play soccer i play the trumbone and i have 2 dogs that i trane and weed dosent get in the way... EVER
Cannabis can be used responsibly and it is a plant not a drug so it doesn't count when I show this. -March 10, 2006: Strikeforce; Cesar Gracie tested positive for Delta 9 THC (active ingredient in marijuana); suspended for 3 months. Cannabis is NOT a drug , but kids should not smoke weed.
Yeah, guys, you forgot to mention caffeine! What a dangerous drug! The fact that its legal doesn't mean you should do it!
But you knew that if you would only mention caffeine, the kids will think that you were lying about all the rest, too. Because they *know* successful people who consume coffee safely.
Well, guess what: they also know successful people who consume alcohol safely! So they won't buy your BS!
Your message that heroin is the same as alcohol is EXTREMELY HARMFUL! Quit it!
im sorry nikki but alcohol to my is one of the most dangerous things of all time because you are leagaly aloud to POISION yourself when you drink and most people dont know until there on the floor naked dying from the inside out..
Hey, I'm from Russia. I know how awful alcoholism can be. There are many things in life that, when practiced *irresponsibly*, can cause huge damage -- but when practiced *responsibly*, can be harmless or even beneficial (like free climbing, for instance). The problem is, kids are not going to learn how to use alcohol *responsibly* from someone who doesn't understand the risk difference between alcohol and heroin... So they'll just learn from someone else. And we don't want that.
No, they don't. That's the problem. If they think that heroin and marijuana have the same risks, they don't know what they're talking about. And it's very dangerous.
They never said all drugs have the same risks. they said to stay away from them. It's safe to say that they all can be addictive, and they do effect your performance. The point is to not take anything that would take you out of your right state of mind.

The BEST way to PREVENT bullying (perhaps not the only way) is to teach your child good SOCIAL SKILLS and help them develop a few good FRIENDS who will stick up for each other.
Serious bullying does not happen to the somewhat popular kid who always has a few good friends around them. Bullys pick on isolated children.
It IS the parents responsibility to help their child develop friendship making abilities. Learn BJJ for sport participation yes, but ALSO learn social skills.

It's clear this is geared for children. So it's not worth arguing if alcohol should be grouped with heroin, for children they are on the same list of things you don't do.

@nubemuffin that is a very clever point, first, do some research, try to spell the guy's name right so you don't look like a tool. Also, an English class may help you out with that grammar problem. Please, appreciate the free advice.

@brettgoudy yeah, sad huh? but I think when they say "gracie family doesnt do drugs", they only refer to this lineage Helio-Rorion-Rorions kids. COz if its the whole gracie family, that would not be true a 100% (I heared Ryan over dosed too, Im not sure, RIP Ryan)

@xXLiveGreenOrDieXx I think it gets in the way when you can't spell words like "shouldn't" "their" "realize" "trombone" "train" and "doesn't"...

Cannabis can be used responsibly and it is a plant not a drug so it doesn't count when I show this. -March 10, 2006: Strikeforce; Cesar Gracie tested positive for Delta 9 THC (active ingredient in marijuana); suspended for 3 months. Cannabis is NOT a drug , but kids should not smoke weed.

@dangraves3031 I agree man. I smoke weed and do BJJ, It doesnt slow me down,Im sober and hydrated and feel great when I come to class.

Yeah, guys, you forgot to mention caffeine! What a dangerous drug! The fact that its legal doesn't mean you should do it!
But you knew that if you would only mention caffeine, the kids will think that you were lying about all the rest, too. Because they *know* successful people who consume coffee safely.
Well, guess what: they also know successful people who consume alcohol safely! So they won't buy your BS!
Your message that heroin is the same as alcohol is EXTREMELY HARMFUL! Quit it!

im sorry nikki but alcohol to my is one of the most dangerous things of all time because you are leagaly aloud to POISION yourself when you drink and most people dont know until there on the floor naked dying from the inside out..

Hey, I'm from Russia. I know how awful alcoholism can be. There are many things in life that, when practiced *irresponsibly*, can cause huge damage -- but when practiced *responsibly*, can be harmless or even beneficial (like free climbing, for instance). The problem is, kids are not going to learn how to use alcohol *responsibly* from someone who doesn't understand the risk difference between alcohol and heroin... So they'll just learn from someone else. And we don't want that.

wow people that have never used drugs talking about drugs. hilarious.

Why is that funny? We've never been to Pluto but we know it exists... They've never taken drugs, but they know the effects and risks that exist.
vcmonkey 2 years ago
No, they don't. That's the problem. If they think that heroin and marijuana have the same risks, they don't know what they're talking about. And it's very dangerous.
nikki171923 2 years ago
They never said all drugs have the same risks. they said to stay away from them. It's safe to say that they all can be addictive, and they do effect your performance. The point is to not take anything that would take you out of your right state of mind.

@bkg198621 so you can only talk about how bad drugs are if you have done them your self? haha you sound like a moron.

I think its true what they said about just trying it once. Remember Jean Claude Van Damme was hooked on cocaine. It's not worth trying just once!
