Before we get into this video, I want to remind you that all wrestling moves are dangerous,

0:04.8

even a headlock take over, takes a lot of talent and a lot of skill, because if that goes wrong,

0:09.4

you're going to fall on the head. And put your hand up, if you want to fall on your head,

0:13.9

hand goes down, I missed. And of course there is a scale to all of this, especially in 2023,

0:18.8

because we are seeing crazy manoeuvres being done. So my name is Simon Watculture. Thank you for

0:23.4

joining me. Please do subscribe. This is 10 wrestling moves, more dangerous than you realise.

0:29.8

Astrix, all of them. Number 10, the reverse Frankenstein. Frankenstein has been around since the 80s

0:35.7

and like all things in life, it is evolved. It was Scott Steiner, especially who was like,

0:40.8

despite being massive. Look what I'm going to do, and he'd go to the top rope,

0:45.7

and he would rack those massive legs around somebody's head and he'd fall backwards and flip

0:50.8

them onto the mat. I mean, that didn't even make any sense. We're always going to take this further,

1:00.8

is scary enough, but when you're going backwards, you can't see anything, which means you just have

1:06.1

to keep everything crossed and hope. An example for this too was back in 2019 in NXT UK,

1:11.9

when we had Mark Andrews taking on Noam Darn. Now if you know these two wrestlers, they're safe as

1:17.1

houses, but it still went wrong. Because basically Darn couldn't get his hand in the right

1:21.0

position to when they did land, he completely blew out his knee, and he even went as far to say,

1:26.3

well, it could have gone even worse than this, and maybe I would have lost my leg entirely.

1:31.0

Not kidding. So please remember that wrestlers are putting their lives on the line all of the time,

1:35.9

so if one does make a mistake, let it slide. Number nine, the diving crossbody. So straight away,

1:42.0

you're like, just because you've seen loads of crossbody in your life, so you have decided

1:47.1

it is a nice simple and easy move. And sure, when it goes right, everybody is happy,
