    What? Not hot chicks? I'm kidding. Not knowing a whole lot about sumo wrestling, I'm not sure what I'm looking at in the action sequence, but you don't have to know the sport to recognize that the first shot is a clear winner!

    Their hair looks like it hurts. If I pulled my hair that tight, I think I would have a 3-day headache!
