BJJ superstar Craig Jones set social media on fire by playfully choking out Alex Jones.
On Thursday, September 28, a video went viral of Alex Jones appearing on Craig Jones’ podcast called “El Segundo.” The clip showcased how their conversation went off the rails, as the far-right conspiracy theorist had this to say to the jiu-jitsu world champion:
“Eddie Bravo wouldn’t do it, come choke me out. Come on, come do it. Wide shot, here we go. I’m gonna lights out. I’m gonna take a little snooze.”
It didn’t take long for Alex Jones to go unconscious and start snoring. Following his short nap, the 49-year-old woke up confused about what happened. He had this to say:
“What? What did I just do? What was I just doing? Oh, did I actually pass out? Huh? I did pass out? Did you really do it? What was it like when I came back?”
