Went to sleep for the first time today.

Has only happened once and yeah very weird feeling and sensation. For me last I thing I remember was that different 'gurgle' sound that you/others make right before everything goes silent. Although I'm glad to have experienced not keen for it to happen again.

Kinda felt like I was in shock when I got home about 30 minutes later and ended up crying my eyes out to my wife. Just had all this emotion come over me. Very weird. Of course that didn't freak my wife out at all.

gone out a few times in rolling, just not tapping in time... also once while explaining to the guy choking about the mechanics of the RNC, and once in comp, got caught trying to pass to Von Flu, was over quick....

ive had that, first time i got hit hard while boxing (sparring), the guy got a great overhand right on me and staggered me, i was alright for a few minutes then when i sat down and cooled off it hit me. starting crying and hyperventilating a bit. my coach said it was an adrenaline rush or coming off of one or something.he gave me some cookies and coke and i had to wait a while but it was a mad experience.

i feel really quite comfortable being choked so i usually fight it, i dont think ive been out before but ive been close, the one time im not sure about was quite recently the guy had the rnc on and i was working my defenses and i didnt lose sight so much as it got a bit blurry but i can remember thinking about fighting and how to defend etc and then thinking something completly irrelevent like i wonder what mums having for dinner atm and then i remembered i was being choked and got out of it. i still cant figure out if i was out or not but it sounds to me like i was even if it didnt feel like it at the time.

I started BJJ in Feb 2009 and went out for the first time today. It scared me a little honestly. Baseball choke in the GI and it seemed to happen really fast. I remember trying to sit up afterwards and couldn't. Couldn't speak either. Also felt myself jerking a little bit. Similar experience anyone?

I put somebody to sleep with exactly that choke you describe once- for some reason he didn't tap, or if he did it wasn't clear enough. It scared me too - I thought I'd killed him! He went stiff, I let go straight away. Dude had a bit of throth at the corners of his mouth. He came round after a short while.

Don't scare your training partners and tap before that happens people!

Dude..C'mon....you left out the best part of that experience....C'mon tell em

Yeah.... pretty sure I was there for that....te quiero papá

I was wrestling a friend of mine and I set myself up. Can't remember what I was going for, but he was trying to transition to an armbar. He's told me the only reason he knew something was wrong was because he got the armbar. To this day neither of us can figure out how it happened. It's been 20 years and he's still apologizing. It scared him more than it did me and we spent the rest of the weekend trying to figure out how it happened.

I normally like to wait to tap until the blackness closes in to about the edge of my eyes, guys are normally good about releasing the choke quickly. SOme are not.

I went to sleep once and remember having a short dream about driving my mustang with the top down through a winding road. Very vivid, only lasted about 4 seconds though, woke back up with the guy was still trying to choke me. He never knew I went out. I don't roll with him anymore.

Went to sleep the first time in my last fight. Thought I was ok and might have a chance of escaping or I wouldve tapped. I was dreaming about some nonsense then noticed I wasnt in my bed. Luckily the last MTS showed me exactly what Ive been doing wrong for a while now.
