Lethal Weapon: Mel Gibson by Triangle Choke



Well, if anyone remembers the final fight between Mel Gibson and Gary Busey from the 1985 action classic Lethal Weapon, they may not actually remember it as a pretty effective and accurate display of jiu jitsu, especially for its time (and given that it predated UFC 1 and the rise of Royce Gracie by several years).

Anyway, near the end of the fight, watch for Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) to go for an armbar and transition to a triangle choke. It's actually pretty good.
