It's sumo getting back to its roots as in olden times sumo was generally outdoors at shrines and temples. Saw a lot of good matches with a lot of surprising "lift-offs" as wrestlers would pick up their hefty rival and sometimes carry them across the ring. Also one could see lower ranking wrestlers singing while top wrestlers carried their babies into their ring-entering ceremonies. User: samuraidave Apr 10, 2013 10:07 PM

As any follower of Sumo knows, Sumo wrestlers are fast, strong, and agile. They also know how to take a fall real well. And they get tossed around a lot. The following is a series of falls, tumbles, and throws from several tournaments: Sept '06, May '07, July '07 in Nagoya, and Sept '07. There's also scenes from an outdoor exhibition in April '07. I went early in the day for the Nagoya Basho and caught some of the junior wrestlers so this vid has wrestlers from the very top to the very bottom of the sumo hierachry.
