Terukuni 105 Posted July 15, 2021 I was looking at old sumo wrestling videos on Youtube when I got the idea to scour video licensing sites for sumo footage. One site in particular, POND5, turned up great results. I highly encourage you all to check the site out for yourselves! Taiho's Retirement Ceremony (features Taiho and Kitanofuji's dohyo iri and Taiho fighting with kids) Footage of a bout in 1959 Tamanishiki and Minanogawa's Dohyo-Iri in surprisingly high-quality video with a bout between two rikishi I don't know An old bout in which a rikishi (I'm sure its Tamanishiki again) beats his opponent with a yoritaoshi The Russia Exhibition Tournament in 1968 (featuring Kashiwado's Dohyo-Iri and Taiho winning the championship per usual) A bout between Asashoryu and Hakuho (both Yokozuna at this point) at some sort of shrine Asashoryu's dohyo-iri later in his career (Note how the video hilariously is titled "Bad Boy Sumo Wrestler Performs Holy New Year's Rite") Musashimaru's Tsuna-uchi and first dohyo-iri Takanohana and Wakanohana doing the dohyo-iri in 1999 These tidbits above are just some of the 300+ strong sumo video collection on this site. I encourage you to get lost in their expansive collection! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
