A Russian and Ole Norwegian wrestler were set to square off for the Olympic
Gold Medal. Before the final match, the Norwegian wrestling
coach came to Ole 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'. Ole nodded in
acknowledgment.


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


 Suddenly, there was a
scream, then a cheer from the crowd and the coach 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 Ole collapsed on
top of him making the pin and winning the match. The crowd
went crazy. The coach 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!"


 Ole answered, "Vell, I
vas ready to give up ven he got me in dat hold, but at da
last moment, I opened my eyes and saw dis pair of testicles
right in front of my face...I had nuttin' to lose so wid
my last ounce of strength I stretched out my neck and bit
dose babies just as hard as I could."

 So the trainer exclaimed,
"That's what finished him off!"


 "Vel not really.
You'd be amazed how strong you get ven you bite your own
nuts!"
