It was nice of John to invite Joe Rogan on to his podcast
Schooled Joe on Jiu Jitsu 🤣
@David David know
Hahaha, the fact of the matter is that John is 1000 times more interesting than Joe.
Yes sir
Well Joe is a showman, who for a hobby martial artist is a very good one. John is one of if not the best Jiu Jitsu experts on the planet.
This is when you’re at a college lecture and the professor picks you to answer some questions in front of everyone. The pressure is unbearable
And then the professor refuses all of your answers because they’re only 80% correct.
In med school it’s called pimping. Attending physicians call you out when you’re on rounds at the hospital. At 6am, in front of the whole team, and often the patient you’re discussing.
The Socratic method
SO, what is water?
Water is a flowing liquid made up of H20.
NO, what really is water?
John not so fun at parties.
If the pressure gets too much, one can simply yell out "TAP!!" and have it echo around the lecture hall.....
:)
Are we not going to address that this guy looks like the riddler and is asking joe a series of questions (riddles)?!??!
Too fucking funny.
Free will 🙏
I can officially not watch this anymore
Correction, a hierarchy of questions.
🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😅😅😅😆😁
Joe could not catch a break in this segment 😅
He didn’t answer a single thing right. And then danaher throws shade at 10th planet 🤣
@@winslowwong9719
He literally states about twice how he was right.
You can tell joe really didn’t like being put on the spot and answering wrong
Lack of understanding.
Ryan Hall's 4 step system:
1. Grab the leg
2. Break the leg
3. Shrug
4. Grab a smoothie
Ryan Hall's revised 4 step system:
1. Go for the leg
2. Fail to grab the leg
3. Roll around to avoid damage
4. Repeat till face smashed in
@@thehorse5307 Lol you're a savage. I watched that fight too - I was like "oh shit, his tricks aren't working!". Hopefully dude comes back with a revised-revised 4 step system.
Poor Joe. His black belt probably felt a little heavier at practice after this. Love the Eddie bravo part lmao
Ahahahaha
Even among black belts there's levels to this game
@@rykehuss3435 I mean all of what he said is pretty base level stuff, joe probably just didnt know where he was going with it
Dude shows up to a podcast interview wearing a rash guard and ready to grapple. LMFAO! 🤣
I’m pretty sure he doesn’t own any regular clothes other than a hoodie and sweat pants to wear over his rash guards, grappling shorts and spats. I’ve heard people say he’s basically on the matts 14 hours a day lol.
I thought he couldn’t roll because of knee injuries? Or he just can’t go hard?
@@bobdole7292 He do very light rolling. His back and hips are the problem.
rash guards are comfortable as all heck and beautifully designed. EVERYONE should wear them!!!!!!!
"John its a formal event"
"Well let me get my nicest rash guard"
John is probably the only one who can seduce a woman by explaining Bjj
And now, I will move into dominant position 😏
Now what 🤷♀️
@@redpillamerican4361 ''you spread your legs, woman ;)''-John
while wearing a rashy
Lol
🤣
John: “what’s step 4?”
Joe: “get in position and submit them”
John: “you already have position so what’s step 4?”
Joe: “submit them”
John: “correct”
This fucking guy
@@danielshelley6249 how would you know?
@@danielshelley6249 what? he is fucking martial arts genius and he always has degree form philosophy and he teached on columbia university, so better be quiet

@@joshchapman4753 dead
@@joshchapman4753 lmao
This clip is fuckin great. This should be taught at everybody's first BJJ class
True.
Definitely
I've recommended this video and explained the concepts to a friend who is just starting.
Yes
I just watched a villain explain how he methodically destroys worlds
1. Take it to the ground 2. Get past his legs 3. Work through the hierarchy of positions 4. Attack with a submission.
You just saved millions of minutes brah.
Champion.
Where do leg locks fit in to this system?
Dangerous legs*
@@heyman8820 in hell
1.5 Leg locks. Not getting past the dangerous legs will result in get kicked in the face and losing consciousness.
Never seen Joe this nervous. He was literally being grilled. Wat a master.
He wasn’t nervous. He was annoyed that this guy was talking to him like a dummy.
@@Syrpens Joe definitely wouldn't be annoyed by ''This guy'' John Danaher. It's a great learning opportunity. He just catches him off guard by breaking down the sequence and it's almost like when a teacher is asking their student question after question, we all got a bit nervous.
@@xDThePro - Joe’s annoyed that a guy he could smash in a roll is talking to him like a brand new white belt. JD isn’t breaking any new ground here he’s just taking fundamental knowledge and making it sound profound. JD is a sham I’ve known who he is since I started training 7 years ago and the guy has always come off as a joke to me
Joes not smashing him on the mats your delusional
@@riharimorgan-kora415 he absolutely would, he’s more athletic and has enough skill to put this fucker in his place
John is looking at Joe like “I want to get past those dangerous legs”
*UwU* THESE Dangerous legs
Lol I hate when people ask a question with a thousand answers and they want the one specific answer they have in their head with the exact same wording.
You mean joe Rogan here lol
@@Dobermann792 shut up
I had the worst philosophy professor who did that. I was a philosophy major at the time and I understood him but I could never guess the exact words he was looking for.
@@Individual_Lives_Matter Danaher has a PhD in Philosophy from Columbia so you're right on lol
Exactly what I was thinking each time he asked a question, no doubt the guy is a genius at BJJ, but this behavior is just pretentious.
"You must be a 10th Planet blackbelt." super low blow.
He was following his own advice and taking it straight to the ground
I got so much clarity from this video
Right? This guy is awesome.
Yep me also
the end is the best part. “now, the question is where do leg locks fit into this system?” LOL
Killer place to cut the video!
When the system fails
Ill never understand why people shit on leg locks so much
Disable those strong legs he was talking about before moving on to further steps?
@@zenseiplays grab leg, break leg, work through positions
Im very disappointed that he isnt wearing his fancy dinner rash guard on an occasion like this
Plot twist : this is his fancy dinner rash guard
@@Rrrarrra3 Nah this aint it, Gordon said his special occasion one is gray
@@rustystnt oh shit yeah you right my bad 🤣
@@Rrrarrra3 lol he mustve worn this one cause he thought joe was gonna want to roll a bit lol
@@rustystnt image if joe had failed the test and he told him to get on the mat :D
You'd need the patience of a saint to have a chat with this guy.
Just a mature conversation
I could sit and listen to his lectures without saying a word. Everything he says is meaningful
I feel like John Danaher can actually see the Matrix Sourcecode in front of him.
best comment ever
John put such a deep thought into all of his jiu jitsu. He really has changed the jiu jitsu game and probably the martial arts sphere for the entire work. I really hope he puts together a striking or self defense series even if it is just strategy and game plan, not necessarily teaching specific techniques.
Won’t be seeing him on the podcast again for a while after this lol.
C A I felt like he embarrassed Joe or at least made him look like a fool. Also earlier in the podcast when he’s going through the Gordon Ryan videos he’s constantly pausing and putting Joe at the spot. If I recall correctly there’s a point where Joe clearly gets frustrated.
It’s all just good entertainment and I hope to see John Danaher on the podcast again.
@@fishwatch8677 I agree
@@fishwatch8677 completely embarrassed him
Haha Danaher is acting like he is teaching Joe a lesson. this dude has some solid knowledge tho. I like the philosophical approach
Fuck I know this guy is one of the best but I got bored waiting on the punch lines
Joe - "attack with a submission"
John - "correct"... Drink water.
"Thug Life" 🕶️
😂
Beautiful cliffhanger
this could be the intro for "BJJ the movie"
They already made it. Nick Cage was in it, it had nothing to do with actual Jiu Jitsu, and it fucking sucked. 😂
@@tblee12356 yo yo 🙏
Bro, I got chills just from the way John talked to Joe (a black belt aka "expert") like he was a struggling student in his college class. He really understands the Why of fighting moves, rather than just How.
@NK I agree, he is not much of an innovator. But he doesn't claim to be. He's a scholar. And one of the best coaches in the game.
@NK You're losing the plot. Don't get your topics confused.
Danaher is the perfect Bond villain 🤣😂
How can you leave us with a cliffhanger like that
there's a whole interview they sis together lol it's phenomenal
I think I know the answer, emphasis on think. When you successfully leglock someone you may not have passed the legs but you do control them. No matter which locking technique you use, they cannot use their legs to harm you.
The answer is when the system fails. His actual wording is if you don't have control and can't attack with a submission "fuck it" try a leg lock. As a bjj nut John blows my mind everytime he opens his mouth, knowledge just pours out. That's why his students are the best submission grapplers on the planet
@@jonesdan85 as a bjj nut John Danaher is an insufferable prick
I could listen to this man for at least 24 hours straight.
Hed be happy to oblige i think...
No f'ing way. He's the sole reason I figured out how to do 2x play speed. It's grueling listening to this dude.
John Danaher a true professor of Jiu Jitsu and the way he explains each step makes me picture it in my head. A brilliant teacher
Him breaking down the steps and the practical reasoning why for each position offers a holistic look at fighting and jiu jitsu which I find incredibly refreshing and profound
I understand leglocks as the plan b to any of the steps. You try to get up after a takedown, I attack the legs. You use your legs to attack me while on the ground, I use them against you. You use your legs to escape my positional control, I transition into a heel hook or leglock. If you don't I submit. This man has broken bjj to steps and he deserves all the praise
Do they also work as kind of a tricky switch up? I was a striking guy first and leg locks get me a lot because I’m so focused on defending what I think of as ‘normal BJJ’ that I forget the guy can pivot for a knee bar or lay back and crack my ankle.
thanks for putting this back on youtube. It's fundamental viewing for people just getting into bjj
The way that John teaches is fantastic. Leading questions that the learner can answer and gain confidence in themselves whilst simultaneously guiding them to the correct answer. You can tell why he's one of the greatest trainers in his field purely from the way he talks and teaches in this conversation.
The socratic method
Lmao idk about gain confidence
I hate pricks like that
@@Syrpens me too. There are people who know more about jiu jitsu who don't try to make you look like a kid when they're talking to you. To every one of his questions where he's looking for only one answer, there were many answers. He's using every bit of his mental energy and conversation space to try to look like a guru. It's working for the people who don't know jiu jitsu. He could easilyp redirect that energy into just communicating the information he's trying to communicate.
@@patrickparson9628 exactly all the people here saying rogan I’d dumbfounded are definitely people who don’t actually train jiu jitsu but pretend to know a bit about it because they’re a rogan fan. I’ve trained for 7 years and this guy comes off as a fucking clown
:14 Did John just methodically insult us? haha
@Marcus Straya you poor fool
I like your videos
danaher: what do you see?
rogan: I don't know.
danaher: do you see the grasshopper at your feet?
It's hard to watch this amazing analysis with a straight face after watching the hard2hurt version with the bread sticks. x-D. Great insights John Danaher, thank you.
The first and last time you'll ever see John Danaher on this podcast. Joe was sweating the whole interview.
They did a part 2 episode a year later
This reminds me of Hannibal Lector questioning Claris on the silencing of the lambs...
This is the first time I’ve ever seen Joe bamboozled by Jiu Jitsu talk 😂
Anyone can make anyone seem like an idiot on any subject by acting like a nob like John is behaving. He is not impressive and joe behaved very well during this podcast, and had a tremendous amount of patience dealing with this moron
You can see how irritated joe gets from that guy talking to him like a kid
well he's an intellect probably and does not see joe on his level, it is egotistical and actually makes him less of an intellect for being pretentious like that, but most humans are this way unfortunately
@@dukenukem7043 I don’t know what humans you hang with, but that’s sad to hear.
@@dukenukem7043 I guess he's just really into the teacher mindset. He's there to teach and showcase bjj, not to be all happy go lucky. Joe should stop inviting black science guy, not this man.
@@Mararegele yeah but he really insulted joe when he said " did you get your black belt from 10th planet jujitsu? oh well that explains alot"
@@dukenukem7043 I guess that was mainly banter; could be seen as disrespectful for sure, but even Jon, serious as he may seem, is not stranger to banter and cursing. I'm guessing he wanted to be more reserved and calculated judging by the huge audience he was gonna have through the exposure to Joe's podcast. If you watch the more recent Joe stuff, including the podcast with Gordon Ryan, he's still holding Jon to incredible high esteem and considers him no less than a genius. And even then they fucked around and made fun of him for the rashguards and whatever else.
To be fair, Joe's answer to his first question was pretty much what he said in less words.
Dude takes himself way too seriously as is trying hard to come off like some guru. It’s clear he has great knowledge but presentation was unbearable for me.
@@zeroh7671 i mean seeming as he has trained the GOAT of grappling in gordon ryan he doesn't need to try to come off like some kind of guru, he is literally the god off bjj gurus.
"To control him better"
"Well yes, but you can control them standing up. When somebody is on the ground he cant use dynamic explosive so its easier to control"
Bruh
That voice. Dear God I need this man to read me bedtime stories.
Creepy
that is the best explanation of bjj i have ever heard .now I want to study bjj ,because that actually gave it meaning !
The purpose of martial arts is to find method in the madness of fighting.
What makes this system so unbelievable effective when it comes in to fighting a non trained person is that there is no lucky punches in grappling. If you don’t know this System, you are 100% unable to defend it.
And how exactly do you define a "lucky punch" ? How do you know if a boxer of 1 year who ko's a boxer of 5 years was "lucky" or just better at that moment?
Exactly, as Joe Rogan himself said “lucky punches happen. There are no lucky triangle chokes”.
@@LOLLYPOPPE Lucky and "just better at that moment" can be the same thing. Sometimes the experienced fighter just makes a bad call. Its unlucky. It isn't the same in BJJ
@@princam_4775 yes it is the same in bjj.
@NK punches and kicks are the least of your problem in a street fight, usually there’s a knife or a gun involved or it’s a 2 vs 1 situation.
This is what I describe as text book making something extremely simple seem super complicated. Joe knows his shit when it comes to BJJ. Danaher is making it seem like rocket science e
Or he is just rationalizing. Which is kind of the point of podcast’ and conversations lmao
@@himersampsbutstronger5946 Joe mentioned every step correctly but Danaher found a way to say “no you’re wrong,” 😂
@@wayne47able But he was wrong according to Danaher's system. If I come up with my own system, and makke it 4 steps, will you get those 4 steps correctly which I made up for myself?
@@khanm.a Joe said everything correctly just not verbatim. Get the fight to the floor, establish control, and finish the guy. Danaher is the kind of guy who will make it seem like there’s 5 ways to solve 1+1... I just can’t
@@wayne47able I agree. Danaher wanted to hear it in his own words.
The guest John Danaher asking a series of cryptic questions to his host who's being put on the spot risking making his host uncomfortable on his own show. Danaher is displaying a guru mindset of an egotist right here. He's not wrong in his comments but instead of leaving Joe hanging he could just ask the question and answer it himself without leaving these uncomfortable pauses while Joe tries to come up with an answer- JD is giving Joe the Spanish Inquisition the way he's questioning him here which is plain rude. So JD is great with his philosophy of Jiu Jitsu, he just needs to work on his conversational skills.
Funny and true
I agree haha.
Thank you for writing this so I don't have to. You're absolutely correct. I'm surprised that Joe fell for it.
Im always wondering if people are not reflecting their own behaviour or if he actually wants to come over like that
Yeah but to be fair Joe kind of needs challenging a bit sometimes, I enjoyed the inquisition
Jiu Jitsu is like Physics and Differential Equations, both are extremely difficult but once you master the basics, the hardest parts are fascinating to discover.
Joe always sounds like the kid who didn't study for the test when he is talking to John Danaher.
The 4 step system sounds brilliant, and he sure knows what hes talking about, but the "guess what I'm thinking" approach is just stupid and easy to see through.
Man this video just skyrocked my bjj for real when I roll my bjj is more structured
I think step by step
1. First war take my opponent to the ground or not defend and counter my opponent tries to take me to the ground
2. Pass the guard I prefer using take down to get directly into dominant position but sometimes it does not work so I have to work to top position
3. Secure dominant position be patient go fort the side control to mount the best is taking the back but I do with what my opponent gives me
4. Try to submit very basic submissions arm triangle, arm bar , guillotine, kimura or Americana
And where leglocks fits into all these steps ?
Imanari roll against stronger opponent that I struggle to take down I prefer manage my fatigue than gass out going force against force
I can’t pass the guard go to 50/50 position
...
Oss
Wow! A kindergartner could realize that. Pretty basic steps there.
Editing Eddie Bravo into this killed me xD.
John Danaher is a genius! His singular focus, breadth of knowledge, and versatility in jiu jitsu should serve as an awe inspiring example to any individual pursuing his or her own craft!
Dude isn't a genius. He's just a good speaker and good at selling.
@@aplus1080 Maybe, but I see someone that's singularly focused on what he loves, and there's a level of genius (or insanity) that I appreciate in that. I'd have to meet him and study his life further to make that assessment for sure though.
If someone adds scary, tension building, villain music to this video, that’d fit PERFECTLY.
@p1ngtrip where you at
He kilt me out with that 10th planet black belt diss
I’m mad you just left it at a cliffhanger tho.
I liked it
Word
Not really, because if you pay attention to the 4 systems, you’ll see that they don’t
John is behind intelligent; he simplifies every definition or even every word to its direct meaning. Intriguing man that is an excellent mentor.
I like that John doesn’t give you answers, he give you questions first and let’s you try to get it on your own. He’s a very practiced teacher, you can see it very well here.
Nah in my opinion hed be way more effective if he made his point FIRST. After that THEN you ask the question of why do you think this is? The first 3 minutes of this was annoying af bc im like dude I dont give a Fuck about javelin throwers get to the point
@@jlogan2228 Asking someone questions and having them arrive at the answer is better. By having the student work through their own thought process to arrive at the answer you have taught them not just the answer, but how to arrive to the answer, and THAT is much more effective both in terms of memorizing and integrating the power of reasoning. It's much easier to remember how to get to an answer than it is to remember the specific answer itself. Don't teach the answer, teach the path to the answer.
I love how Danaher is wearing a rash guard to an interview lmao 🤣😂 I bet he always has a rash guard on at all times, just on the rare chance someone absolutely needs (or close enough by his standards) choked out.
he actually wears a rashguard everywhere he goes 😂 the only pic of him wearing a t-shirt was from Gordon ryan's Instagram story and even then he said that he had run out of clean rashguards to wear
He wore a rash guard to Matt Serra's wedding 😂
search for the clip of gordon ryan slapping that other dude after some grappling event, and you'll see an entirely different john danaher. he is not only part lizard, but he is also chameleon
Let’s not act like this was a good “quiz” the questions were so vague there’s are several correct answers and John was looking for the only one he thought was right
Then challenge any of his fighters that use his 4 steps.
@@the101dad the point went completely over your head, I bet you thought that sounded like a cool comeback when you typed it out.
Well he wasn't supposed to get them correct. It's just to activate more conversation. Get him to figure out all the options so we understand more
@@the101dad So your answer to his valid criticism basically boils down to "well they can beat you up". So what? His point has nothing to do with whether they're better fighters than him or not. This comment is braindead.
Makes sense when you think about it
Understanding the why is just as important as understanding the how...
His way of asking questions making me nervous
Joe looks like the timid student that the teacher singled out.
Bro 4:51 is pure editing gold
Thank you 😂🙏🏼
I could listen to Danaher all day
As a 6 month WB, i've been listening and seeing Danaher podcasts for hours. Already finish all from Lex Fridman podcast (will most likely listen again), and now I'll start with Joe's podcast. Amazing content
That cutaway to Eddie Bravo fucking killed me lol
Yo that was badass when he said “he must be a 10th planet black belt”😂
Why do I feel relaxed as John talks about the methodical steps he uses to dominate his opponent.
Lol IcyMike did such a good impression of John
Wow this was an excellent video on the mechanics and physics on BJJ. This was great. Thank you.
Step 1: Take the fight to the ground
Step 2: Get pass dangerous legs
Step 3: Work your way through a hierarchy of pins
Step 4: Submission
Leg locks are the exception to the 4 steps. You can leg lock from standing, bottom, top, and while moving in between these positions. Essentially leg locks are the queen piece of jiu jitsu. They can jump around the board not hindered by the four steps.
I don’t know shit but I always thought of leg locks like the “you thought I was doing this but now I’m doing that” move. Kind of a surprise, surprise thing.
That's not just leglocks
Is that a casual rashguard or a street rashguard? Jon is a absolute fighting legend!!! So glad you had him on. This man is awesome and total fight genius
"He must be a 10th Planet Blackbelt!" Translation: "You'd only be a blue belt at my shop!" LMAO!!! John Danaher, the boss with the brass balls!
Rogan would smoke John. I’m not even a Rogan fanboy but I know this
a 10th planet black belt is legit! your dead wrong. im a bjj purple in gi but when im rolling no gi 10th planet is beastmode! no way hed be a blue
@@Syrpens 😂
In a distant galaxy on a planet called Jitsuyama, a couple by the names of Rashnar Guard and Rashea Guard knew their planet was about to fail so they sent their only child coupled with a rash blanket via capsule to a distant galaxy and a planet called Earth.
There he took the form of a human and the name of John...
You know the rest.
john danaher is a slepping dragon,scary
Where’s the ‘leg’ part? Where is the second part of this interview
Joe is like "Bro, I did not come here for a fucking quiz"
I train BJJ and love it, its obviously one of the most effective martial arts out there, especially in competition on a canvas floor in a ring or octagon. But it has its weaknesses like every other martial in real life situations that we dont seem to talk about.
1. Its not a good idea to go to the ground when there is more than one attacker, youve got a very high chance of getting kicked in head by the one thats still stood up while your on the floor choking out his buddy.
2. Ive had my eye gouged by someone that was underneath me running out of breath in a messy street fight..
3. a good friend of mine that is a very tough fighter had his nose bitten really badly by a bigger guy that he took to the floor in a real life fight
This is not to disrespect BJJ because i truly love it, i just wish we’d point out the weak aspects that we should be aware of when not dealing in a competition environment
2:42 wtf there are guys standing there
Love how this ends on a cliffhanger o.0
Can someone tell him that a rash guard isn’t a regular tshirt
This reminds me of my clinical year of vet school being on Internal Medicine!
i love the eddie bravo edit haha
This is a great way of explaining jui jitsu
The cut to Eddie is pure gold 😂
John might be the greatest mind in the game atm and he's probably done more to change the face of BJJ/GJJ than anyone since the Gracie's themselves
Hannibal Lecter froze in fear when he heard John Danaher was coming for dinner.
Joe was not ready for this pop quiz
Danaher is the Plato of Jiu Jitsu.
-You are a black belt? Must be black belt from 10th planet.
Lmaaaao😂😂
Why did he say that?what's wrong with 10th planet?serious question
@@johnnyhancock717 it's not that there is anything wrong with it lol. But Joe Rogan is actually a black from 10th Planet its like an organization. Like when people get their black from the gracie's so on and so forth. He was poking fun at his gym playfully
As smart as Rogan is John is just next level smart. He thinks so uniquely.
He didn’t tell joe anything joe didn’t already know. Just worded it differently lmao.
Nice editing !
The reason you take them to the ground is 1. They cant move backwards, technically yes control is an aspect 2. If youre in control of the position of the ground you neutralize strikes. Only time anyone has been K.O.ed from the guard was Kevin Holland VS Jacare Souza and it happened while Kevin was standing up and Jac was changing positions. If those punches landed while Kevin was flat on his back they wouldn't have had any power
When a college teacher asks you questions, to which he/she already knows you don't have answers lol
The elegance of grappling
Lol that 10th planet joke tho
