Have you ever hurt someone when rolling? Accidentally popped a mate's ankle? These are some of the toughest moments to deal with on the BJJ journey. Does hurting a team mate make you a bad person? Who is responsible in the heat of the moment?
Knowing how to respond straight after is an important part of playing the Jiu-Jitsu game. You are putting your body on the line and betting your ligaments with every roll of the dice. Sometimes you get injured and other times you are the Injury maker. JT & Joey discuss the responsible things to do when you hurt your mate.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
