Nice video, thanks !
That's the kind of seoi-nage that would leave most people clueless. They would be on their back before they could even blink their eyes. It would come as a killer in the night.
It's always possible though that he had certain body parts replaced by steel springs !
It's great though to see someone again who has more to say than "well, uh huh, you got to grip your partner like this, and then uh huh ... he can't move and will do this and that because I am a clairvoyant and can read my opponents intentions, and then just I do just this and that, and whoopsie [at this moment the 'champ' shows some louzy technique which no one who hasn't his humongous force or isn't facing someone at least three weightclasses lighter, can perform]". Nothing like that, just some clean technique by someone who understands debana, works with simple (left) grip, low center of gravity, and bang, ippon !!

MOROTE SEOI-NAGE- "It comes as a killer in the night!".
Coming soon to a movie theatre (or dojo) near you.
(Rated- Vertigo, warning: frightening scenes for those with a fear spinning and falling)

So smooth. A non-attacking/non-defending opponent definitely has no chance against it.

I was warned just last week that Japanese humor has no context for cynicism or sarcasm.
