On Chokes

Seen online -
I accidentally knocked out another white belt with a rear naked choke. He never tapped. He said he never felt it coming. 

This from a site where the white belt was asking for advice. It would seem the two white belts had less than one month of training each.  So here is some advice:

Two new white belts should never be training partners if it can be avoided.

The rear naked choke (RNC) does not hurt. Many people do not tap, because they do not feel pain.  There is a faint numbing feeling and most get a bit of tunnel vision as indicators.  A competent instructor will advise you of this. 

Getting choked unconscious like this is no big deal.
