Try not to think about the concussion that didn't happen, Grandma

OK, this wouldn't come up as an embedded video (some of you saw the title on your reader or feed earlier).

But check out one of my most nervous moments so far as a wrestling dad.

Turn up the volume.

Ugh. That kind of made me sick. It appears he was okay.

Dominic said, "I want to watch it again."

Aidan said, "I think that was cool."

How did you keep filming as long as you did? My stomach hurts. No effects that you can tell? What was his reaction?

JPB said...

I wasn't filming it and the girl who was (whose voice you hear) had it on a tripod.

JPB said...

I gave him the ol' how many fingers am I holding up, how old are you, etc. test after the first period.

Grams said...

I think you should give him that test again! I have a headache. Oh, and my neck hurts, too.

Looks like some of the moves Maxwell does on the babies. I guess they will be ready for this.

Glad he is okay! Did he keep going after that?!

JPB said...

That was 30 seconds into the first round. I think he ended up winning 7-2.

JJ's comment:

"It was just his hand slapping the mat. It wasn't his head."

Me: "Yeah, but it sounded horrible."

He didn't seem to be worried in the least.

JPB said...

The loudest slap was his head. You may not be able to tell it with this video. In real life the hand-slap is was a light little thing. The heavy thud is the headgear hitting the mat.

Well, I'll have to let him know. I assumed as a former wrestler he would know .

Did Dietrich make any comments about it afterwards?
