The 'Flying Squirrel' in World Junior Greco-Roman Wrestling



From Cliff Thies:

Yahoo video features an insane 'Flying Squirrel' by American Ellis Coleman in the World Junior Greco-Roman Wrestling World Championships at Bucharest, Romania.

Greco-Roman Wrestling is a very constrained form of wrestling. Basically, you cannot attack your opponent below the waist. So, Coleman, performing the Flying Squirrel, jumps over his opponent, an Iranian, and grabs him at the waist from behind, and then throws him out of the ring.

Coleman went on the take the Bronze medal.
