Tall people , because I ' m short . <| sep |> It isn ' t . I ' d use Lava las manos for that . <| sep |> 100 % something on your end <| sep |> I think you nailed it and don ' t really have anything to add . If we were to define Jiu Jitsu down to something really simple , I would go just a bit beyond the common Danaherism control that leads to submission and say that Jiu Jitsu is about finding control that minimizes damage to you and maximizes damage to your opponent . The specific ruleset will determine which kind of damage we are talking about strikes in MMA the threat or actuality of a limb break or unconsciousness in pretty much all grappling and we can even go so far as to say damage on the scoreboard via points in pointsportIBJJF Jiu Jitsu . It doesn ' t matter how you look at it , Jiu Jitsu is still a search for control that puts the damage balance in your favor .
