It's impressive, for sure.

You ever wrestle?

Nothing that can be taken too seriously. I have wrestled with a friend who knows Judo some; I'm a fair bit bigger and heavier than he is, so I had a slight advantage from a physical standpoint, while he had the technical skill. I wouldn't mind learning some wrestling though, it's fun to do. I have done a little Aikido, which is also a grappling art (no real strikes, mostly throws).

Cool. I think wrestling is useful, especially if the event of close contact is something that could ever happen. And it is for me and a lot of people.

I just never got into it because I knew I'd get a boner.

Yeah. I think everyone should know how to defend themselves from would-be attackers (although I actually don't outside some general rules of thumb in case of a fight). I would like to attend some martial arts classes, particularly Wing Chun, which there's a school for in my area, but my schedule just makes it untenable right now.
