The Irish wrestler


A Russian and an Irish wrestler were set to square off for the Olympic
gold medal. Before the final match, the Irish wrestler's trainer came to him and said, 'Now, don't
forget all the research we've done on this Russian. He's never lost a match because of this
'pretzel' hold he has.

Whatever you do, do not let him get you in that hold! If he does, you're finished.'

The Irishman nodded in acknowledgment.

As the match started, the Irishman and the Russian circled each other
several times, looking for an opening. All of a sudden, the Russian lunged forward, grabbing the
Irishman and wrapping him up in the dreaded pretzel hold. A sigh of disappointment arose from the
crowd and the trainer buried his face in his hands, for he knew all was lost. He couldn't watch
the inevitable happen.

Suddenly, there was a long, high-pitched scream, then a cheer from the
crowd and the trainer raised his eyes just in time to watch the Russian go flying up in the air.
His back hit the mat with a thud and the Irishman collapsed on top of him, making the pin and winning
the match.

The trainer was astounded. When he finally got his wrestler alone, he
asked, 'How did you ever get out of that hold? No one has ever done it before!'

The wrestler answered, 'Well, I was ready to give up when he got me in
that hold but at the last moment, I opened my eyes and saw this pair of testicles right in front
of my face. I had nothing to lose so with my last ounce of strength, I stretched out my neck
and bit those babies just as hard as I could.'

The trainer exclaimed, 'That's what finished him off?

'Not really. You'd be amazed how strong you get when you bite your own nuts.
