Konnichiwa and thanks again for watching SUMO PRIME TIME. The next grand tournament begins exactly a month away from today and I know everyone can't wait and neither can I. But we will keep you posted by bringing intriguing contents and this one is no exception.
This time, we asked 10 rikishi to test the strength of their hand grip by using a dynamometer. This was originally distributed in December, 2020 by the Japanese language RUclips team which means the contestants include a couple of great former Yokozuna: Hakuho and Kakuryu! Were they able to show that they don’t take a backseat to anyone in this unique contest too? Find out who has the strongest grip in sumo by watching this fun show. Oh, by the way, thank you for sending me comments about the previous show which was about revealing the secrets of rikishi's topknot. Tell you the truth, I didn't know they actually shaved the top of the head in order to keep the topknot in neat shape. I guess you learn something new every day. Anyway, we hope you enjoy this video and again, please send us your comments and suggestions because we always love hearing from you. Arigato!!
This is so great. Sumo's non-Japanese audience doesn't get to see the Rikishi outside of a very narrow contexts... so this kind of content is highly appreciated, since it helps us better appreciate their personalities. Thank you!
Kakuryu didn't even seem to try hard but squeezed 87kg😁
Kakuryu gave it a light squeeze with the tips of his fingers and still matched Hakuho 😮
That's exactly what I said to myself. I'm like ummm he barely even tried??? That's crazy
I didn’t even see him do it
He seemed like he was handshaking 😂
Tobizaru had me completely cracking up. I love how he said he set a new record 😂😂😂
There was a lot untranslated, sadly! They were joking about how Tobizaru must have made it go around once, THEN land on 60 for a grip of over 160.
@@STie95 It was disappointing to have so little of the conversation translated. We missed out on a lot of good humored banter.
@@STie95 - 🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for sharing this info with us❤.
@@STie95 I understood 262kg... but my Japanese isn't good..
I died laughing😂😂 hahah his eyes got all big
If anyone is unsure if their grip is impressive and the average man's grip 40 kg and most professional athletes are at 60 kg, they are hitting well over 80 kg
Superior strength from our Sumo athletes
It was like Kakuryu just looked at the thing and it went 87 😆 Oh and Shodaiiii, never cease to impress!
Great to witness the Rikishi personalities and humour in this episode. A side of them we don't see of course during the serious business on the Dohyo.
Even after all these years Hakuho seems stoked that he got invited to hang out with the cool kids.
There was one more video, where Terunofuji and Ura scored well above 100 kg. Kakuryu didn't even try, I believe he could do much more.
That cant be accurate. Ura doesnt have the strength of Teru or Shodai. He isnt as strong as Hakuho or Asanoyama, I believe theres a way to cheat these.
@@crazzynez Grip strength is not that well correlated with general body strength, so that's not impossible.
@@crazzynez Ura benches 200kg. He’s not tall and massive among rikishi, but all those guys are stupidly strong compared to normal humans.
@@JTM1809 damn boy a beast no wonder he is able to push now.
Any video of it tho.
I have seen you in natto's comments
@@crazzynez This solely measures grip strength.
for those that arent familiar with grip strength stuff, what Shodai and Terunofuji did with basically no training/effort is super impressive...
Yeah I'd love to see Shodai try and close a Captains of Crush 3, 3.5 and 4.
Doubt he could get Number 4 but 3.5 maybe.
We love the original content but this stuff is incredible too! Please share more of the most popular Japanese Sumo clips! 🙏
Tobizaru's reaction to Shodai's score was so funny 😂😂😂 Anything above 85 is elite though and these guys don't even train grip
"Dont train grip". Literally powerlift and train in a sport where grip is essential due to the mawashi and belt fighting.
@@crazzynez they don’t all powerlift only certain Rikishi do
I love how respectful and mannered sumo wrestlers are, even at the very top there's none of the bluster found in other combat sports
They are so humble, westerners could learn a lot about true sportsmanship from these great ambassadors to be sure.
I’m surprised how strong Goeido still is years after his retirement.
My man Takakeisho's body works so hard to just exist. What a champ.
I love how he broke into a sweat just standing there. What an absolute unit.
Grippers like this are very dependant on hand size, so shorter guys with smaller hands will struggle whereas taller guys with bigger hands will do well.
While I expected Teruhofuji to be near the top but (he's quite tall and also lifts a lot of weights in training) I was a little surprised that Shodai did even better.
Kakuryū didnt even try 🤣 and did 87kg. I wish Shodai would use his power more often in the Bashos.
These great men are so Humble, I adore the Japanese.
Thank you for providing these clips with subtitles! Hakuho immediately gets competitive; I love it.
TOBI is hilarious. Such natural charisma and humor.
My only request is to fully translate the conversation. We missed out on a lot of the fun banter.
The entire Tobizaru segment was hilarious
Shodai has the power grip now ownly if he could establish it more often 🙂
I'm super happy this one got translated😊
😂 The absolute best sumo prime time I have seen so far! More!❤
Crazy strength, these guys could hang from a bar at a body weight of 500lbs
This was a good episode, great idea. I’d like to see an update to this. Possibly while they are out on tour? Thanks Hiro and SPT team.
Here's one they did last year. ruclips.net/video/iw20sVujqIo/видео.html
Shodai and Terunofuji have massive hands compared to the others. Far more leverage. Well done you two.
Shodai, the lord of chaos, was only using 10% of his power here. They're lucky the dynamometer didn't break.
wow all rikishi is very humble 👍 even yokozuna. keep it up guys. Fans From Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
I enjoyed this even though I have seen it before. It was nice to understand what the rikishi were saying. Please upload more cool subtitled content.
Thanks for showing some of the more human sides of the rikishi.
OMG these guys had me cracking up. What a great snapshot of where we were end of 2021. Goes to show how much confidence and skill have as much to do with raw power.
I'm glad the rikishi all got to show us their brand of grip strength. Please cheer for them.
bro im dead xD Tobirzaru out here setting records
Thank you for translating these old videos! I love both channels content and love seeing English translations!
Such fun to watch 😅
It would seem Shodai approached the challenge with care by taking a deep breath first!
Was really nice to see a bit or their personality
tobizaru face when they told him shodai scored over 100 LOL
I recently saw a video where they showed a short segment of the rikishi's evening weight training, it'd be interesting to see more of that
Wow, always fun to see rikishi doing those competitions. Can you do the rikishi vs bodybuilders next?
Thank you so much Sumo Prime Time, thank you thank you thank you :) I don't speak Japanese but I still watch most of the Japanese channel's video, even if I don't understand what they're saying, their personalities still shine through.
Seeing the rikishi's personalities is such a joy to me.
Thank you for the translation :)
It's great to see translations of Japanese nsk content! Please do more of these! As the commenters mentioned, their personalities are on full display here!
Thank you Hironoumi! I watched these videos when I was getting into sumo, even if I didn't really understand anything they were saying.
I love Shodai's reaction. He didn't know what happened, he probably thought he had damaged it!
Hello from Rostock, Germany.
ITS great to See all the Generations.
This is GREAT content for in-between events. Thanks Hiro!
Great stuff to see glimpses of the rikishi's personalities
I really enjoyed watching this, made my day. I truly enjoyed the laugher and humour of all the sumo. Make sure video like this? As a fan from Canada I don’t get to see sumo like this and it’s really wonderful. I recently find this channel and Iam really enjoying it. I really like sumo since 2019, Endo my favourite, why I find sumo.
Thank you prime time sumo for this channel.
These guys all seem to have a great sense of humor I love it
Still cracks me up how Kakuryu appeared to barely move at all and still cranked out almost 90kg of grip strength.
Having watched this video before and not understanding a word... "raw horse meat" was the last thing I was expecting.
We need a Shodai and Ura playoff! And please invite Tobizaru as well for sheer confidence and spirit!
This should be a yearly segment
That was fun. Thank you for brining to us.
Tobizaru looked like he was up to mischief.
I love these translated videos. Maybe you could do some of the rikishi interviews or some of the cooking videos. Also, more Kaisei, please.
This is not the newest grip strength contest, though. The most recent tests of strength reveal that the true grip-strength king is URAAAAA!!! He pretty much blows everyone else out of the water.
Watching similar grip strength videos for rodeo bullriders and rock climbers really gave me an appreciation for Ura's insane grip. He's got titanium hands 🖖🖖
This was a fun video to watch. Cheers to Lord Shodai.
It’s fun to watch these guys show some of their personality with their grip strength.
Oh, Tobizaru... I love this guy! :D
Tobizaru is the best! 9:23
That was really fun to watch. Tobizaru seems like a fun guy
Genuinely can't wait for the next tournament. And thanks Hiro for the hard work! You bring Sumo to the masses.
I genuinely want to hang out with Tobi. Dude seems super fun.
Thank you made these channels.
I'm Japanese but these movies were teached me somethings in English！
I want to became speak English about sumo!!
I love y’all bringing back these videos! I never knew they existed and they are amazing! I never thought takanosho could smile, he’s so serious in the ring! Lol
That was Fun,,, Thank you,🙏🙏🌷🌷
Tobizaru's 262kg were really impressive ^^
Wait, I remember Ura getting over 100kg as well. Guess it was in another video
Yep, that was I believe the 2022 one.
@@refactorear Have you a link to it? Thanks!
@@xxxIRISHSTUDxxx Only Japanese since it's the official channel ruclips.net/video/JbJgvQoX6YY/видео.html
Oh yes! I remember watching this on the Japanese channel. So very cool that you translated it for us. Thank you!
Wow Terunofuji you are lengend🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for showing more content for us viewers outside of Japan. Love seeing all the rikishi.
Hakuho was mentally throwing somebody off the Dohyo when he had his turn
An effortless 87kg from Kakuryu 💪🏼
Another one of my favorite vids. Nice to see what was being said here. I'm kinda baffled at the eating of raw horse meat comment😅. And the slight Tobizaru roast is hilarious🤣. Thanks for sharing S.P.T squad.
That was hilarious! Loved seeing the banter and teasing.
Thank you Hironoumi for another awesome episode! This was great fun
haha way back when shodai just got ozeki... oh well he looks abit more alive lately without the ozeki pressure so thats nice to see... oh my god and when we had kak and hak as yokozuna and asanoyama as ozeki.. good time.. (minus the vid)
Best laugh with Mitakeumi 🤭 , embaresed of Takakeisho 🙄, Shodai empty the table 💪 Tobisaru joke of the day😂😂😂😂
Holy crap, the horse-beef diet gets credit again! I wonder if Shodai is an Alistair Overeem fan...
this was fun. thanks for translating the jp nsk videos!
Very fun video! Would love to see more stuff like this.
Thanks for the content - please try to put a bit more accurate subtitles though! what they're saying is more interesting than some approximate meaning!
Do more shows like this, please.
It’s actually a little bananas that they have all this content and could’ve easily uploaded it at the time. Just didn’t think it mattered though
If I would trained shodai he would be champion for the tournament .!
No surprise at all that Terunofuji was top 2.
Ura had a similarly absurd grip strength to Shodai, measuring somewhere over 100kg. I remember Chiyomaru measuring at 35kg, but it had to have been a troll attempt.
Ura was 119kg I believe, which is utterly insane. That's stronger than most rock climbers, who are usually the undisputed kings of grip strength.
@@kochiyama Ura has forearms bigger than most people's calves.
Great video! Thanks
遠藤関、相変わらずハンサムで、笑顔が素敵‼️
Please more videos from the Japanese language channel. Great content. I prefer this more easy going and not so over the top way of making sumo videos. Thanks for sharing!
I wish I could have seen prime Tochinoshin do this. The man was raw power
I really enjoyed this! Kakuryu could have easily done better. I wonder what Takarafuji would score -- he hardly ever grabs the mawashi, but has superhuman strength in his lower body! And then there is Tamawashi with real power!
Cool, I'm par with Shodai ;-)
It's insane that many of their left grip is even stronger than their right grip 😂
Live by the Shodai die by the Shodai
Sending you all jy best wishes Asinoyama. ❤❤❤❤
shodai strait up broke the thing.
Mitakeumi's got the best squeezing face. 😂
Shodai 100kg grip like polar bear grip
Takakeisho and kakuryu 🤩🤩
More content please!!!
WELL DONE SHODAI 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
i'm laughing very hard, Tobizaru really funny..
