Eric Ingram just earned his jiu-jitsu blue belt from the esteemed Gracie family. A lot of people do that over the course of a year and a lifetime, but what makes Ingram so special is he's a quadraplegic. The guy can't feel nor use his legs, and he sits in a wheelchair. Yet he put on an absolute clinic in the video below, inducing multiple tapouts from various positions, holds and submission moves. Now I can't, nor I won't, sit here and speculate whether the guy he goes up against, who happens to be his brother, is going all out, but it doesn't really matter. Look at some of the transitions and submission moves he pulls out. For a guy using his legs they're impressive. For Ingram, they're amazing.
After watching this, I should probably stop complaining about pain and soreness after doing a leg workout. This guy makes me look like a pussy.
