OLE, THE NORWEGIAN WRESTLER

A Russian and Ole, the 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!"
