- Episode Synopsis: Ground-breaking technical innovator Eddie Bravo is known as having revolutionized the way we think about no-gi jiu-jitsu. As he explains in Part 1 of our feature documentary 'Building an Empire', his obsession with jiu-jitsu had an unusual origin - everything began while he was pursuing a music career in Los Angeles in the early 90s.
Discover why he went all-in on jiu-jitsu and find out how his dreams came true in an episode that reveals a side of Eddie Bravo few people have ever seen.

Because he beat Gracie I think he just couldn't believe anything ever again.
Chicken Dippers
😆😂
Had a proper laugh from your comment 😂
Hahahhaah that's IT exactly what I said!!! turned into a conspiracy fanatic in one moment!
Fucking priceless lol
Fantastic comment hahahaha
Joe rogan intro was beautiful
That was just them talking on his podcast...
the rest was just from the power of editing
@Albert Sausageworth Certainly gave me context as to why I should listen to ANYTHING Eddie Bravo says at all. Doesn't mean I have to agree with it, or any of it, but to see that editing and recap...puts so much more of his opinions and he and Rogan's commentary about BJJ and MMA in better context.
*** “it was almost bizarre”
WTF was that song playing ? Gave me goosebumps
Yessir. Agreed. Love em.
It annoys me that in this day and age people really don’t give Eddie the respect he’s earned because he’s the crazy conspiracy guy. He really is a special talent in martial arts
Idk about other people's opinion but the conspiracy stuff only adds to his personality, carisma and perks, he's a beast
Well not that's not entirely true.. Most people love eddie's conspiracys. Few don't respect his conspiracys but that has nothing to do with the jiu jitsu world.
And also most conspiracies are proven to be true and also read your bibles 🫡
You know what's really funny all the crazy conspiracies alot of them came true the past 3 years
I like his Jiu-jitsu but I didn't get into bjj because these guys know politics or know what's going on in the world 😂 I joined to learn a martial art not someone dumb flat earth bullshit
Eddie Bravo is the type of flat earther to open a gym called 10th Planet.
He should'v called it "10th Flat Planet"
He has plans to rename it 10th plane jiujitsu
@@C_mao 10th disc
10th Flanet
@Nemesis very nice*** its literally all in the words!!! All the answers!! Everything spelled out rite infront of us the whole time.
for everyone calling eddies mom hot...thats eddie in a wig....look into it
You saw it.
Fuckin LOL!
Best comment ever.
You just ruined it fucker!! IT IS EDDIE IN A WIG!!!
Hahahahahahahaha
“He’s a Legend, I can’t believe I won.” Brought tears to my eyes. So proud to be a part of 10th planet. Eddie Bravo is most definitely one of the best BJJ guys to ever live.
There are like 56 Gracies, he beat Royler....who? The guy sucked in MMA was 5-5. Whatever.
What you mean "part of 10th planet" ?? Lol. Awe
Dan Armando 5-5 in MMA but do you know how amazing he was at BJJ? He’s a legend in it. MMA is a different sport than BJJ
Dan Armando you’re an idiot
Liar
3 years later and I’m still waiting on episode 2
That’s cause he wants you to Look into it...
@@RagingBullNuts 😂
@Kyle Bale ur the man
2 and 3 are out now
the episodes are out now!!!
ep 54: Eddie Bravo defeats 50 Nasa guards an chokes out the Boss exposing him for the Lizard he is
Lol
I’d watch that
I'm just saying... _look into it_
"I did the research...on youtube!"
bofeity lmao 😂
I'm just saying...... his mom is hot
Damn, homie literally invented his own rules... what a legend.
Zein yea man. In my opinion, he took something that was already great and he just perfected it really. That’s why the Gracie’s hate him so much, if his shit was ineffective they wouldn’t have cared. But because it works, it burns them up inside. All my opinion but there’s a reason he beat Royler twice.,
They hate him? I just saw him with pops and Rickson
@@kd9262 Fans make up their own narrative man... I'm sure they are on some level of mutual respect and might share some mutual admiration as well.
ye eddie is OG and funny af
Harry Poosie it’s always funny to me how people say “The Gracies” like they are some amalgam. There are A LOT of Gracie family members, all with varying philosophies and viewpoints. Some of the Gracie family members, like Royce for example, don’t like Eddie but there are plenty that don’t hate him at all. Rickson respects him, I’ve asked Relson personally about Eddie Bravo and he doesn’t have much of an opinion at all about him, he’s indifferent but he certainly doesn’t hate him.
Hope the kids mom doesn’t walk in on him while he’s practicing dead orchards on himself .. 😂
M J hey man! No doubt he self...pleasures himself lol. Lucky dude
Joel Ramirez what😂😂
@@joelramirez6261 boy you gay if you think he's lucky 😂
@@joelramirez6261 no, never once have I ever wanted to suck my own dick, lmao. but hey, if thats what youre into, hahahaha
@@rsoe9158 hhahahahhaha he definitely gay
Eddie's story is so inspiring. If there's anything to take away from this, it's to not give up on yourself and to keep pushing regardless of failure.
Love it!
Inspirational, sure. Problem is, it only works for 1% of people. We look at those 1% and say, "that's what I gotta do". But in 99% of the times, we end up in the 99% group. That's the sad reality.
I think it’s more like only 1% follow through and actually keep pushing and advancing themselves.
99% of people settle in and just think about what they want to happen but they don’t make moves towards it.
There's nothing wrong with either as long as you aren’t lying to yourself about what’s up.
keep grinding keep hustling shoot for your dreams anything is possible. Never get up.
Dude, his Metalhead past brings me joy.
Right , reminded me of a young Kirk Hammett
Same here, mate!
I listened to all those bands!
Im not a metler at all but I have to acknowledge his fucken radness
I just started watching this and already was going to post about his Kreator shirt. That’s some badass mid-80’s German thrash right there.
Bruh can you imagine
He started at such a late age and has accomplished so much in such small time
Never too late brah. Follow your dreams and listen to your heart. Take care
@@bob_WRLD yea bro, im 24 about to get into jiu jitsu, mainly just so i could learn the art of it, but if i was to become exceptionally good, i would take advantage of it
Thwack Indna huh?
how old was he?
@@Mentalcheez 24
"Hes a legend" and so are you Eddie
Eddie “I’m that one-in-a-million” Bravo.
I love that part
haha
my man eddie bravo pioneered nu metal without even realizing it
lmfao
History will remember him for the musical revolutionary he is, not for his silly ground cuddling club
Apparently he said his sound was similar to Linkin Parks 10 years before their first album...props
Maybe he'll build his empire so high he'll realize the earth is round
Or maybe you'll open up your narrow mind and stop believing were spinning through the universe on a flaming waterball at thousands of mph, with "GRAVITY" magically holding all the oceans and everything else here.
James White is that you eddie
Or build it so high that eventually he’ll have no choice but to name his favorite strain of cannibus, 10th Planet - patent that strain and name and finally make all the money he’ll ever need plus my 10% in perpetual royalties for providing said business idea.
This comment make my day
James White yeah you’re right, instead we’re flying through space on a disc like a frisbee and magically no one has ever fallen off. Just wondering if Gravity isn’t keeping us here on our magic frisbee what is lmao.
How can you not like Eddie. He is a real guy. You deserve all the success that comes your way sir.
lol @ 8:46
Eddie's uncle: you know the odd of making any music...one in a million.
Eddie: I'm that one in a million.
To be fair, I think a lot of us hope for that and give it a shot tbh. I'm now just glad that after 18 years someone clicks on a youtube video every 5 months.
EDDGIE BRAHHH
Edgy Brah*
Raees Thapa Not a single person better like this comment now
Raees Thapa I just came to write that lol,,
EDDGIE BRUUUUUH
Eddie tells his student to think about how hot mila kunis is, while he's hugging another dude 🤣🤣🤣
Big Bro lolol
See that isn't all that weird if you are a heterosexual, because you know you are actually wrestling a man.
Talk about dedication.
Think about how hot she is. . . Think about it.
@@RustyShakleford1 are you ok?
This intro gives me chills EVERY time I watch it... from the narration by joe, to the “fast forward to now” clip of Eddie sitting there. Very inspiring 1 minute and 5 seconds
Me too
This was so well done, thoroughly enjoyed it.
Best part is at 4:40 , gotta love Eddies storytelling.
"He said that UFC thing was *real*, man."
- Really? It looked fake.
"Yeah, he said some iranian guy was grabbing em by the throat with 2 fingers and just chocking em out"
- WHAT?! What about KARATE!?
"He beat EVERY style!"
And of course, he was talking about Royce Gracie, the brazilian.
To me, the funniest thing about it is that it just took Eddie a single UFC tournament to ditch karate completely.
BenRangel he could have just watched some Bruce Lee documentaries. He was saying it was all bullshit and it was all about finishing moves.
It's amazing how Bravo at 33 is one of the best BJJ artists but yet considered a failure for the whole music thing. Fuck the haters and do what you love. While he loved his artistic musical expression, he clearly had a deeper passion for Jiu Jitsu and never let that musical expression die. He's a class act and a true inspiration that even tho things don't go as planned, and the outcome isn't what you intended, things will workout with hard work and perseverance
Ben Lee you got him
eddie bravo is 47
It's the journey. Not the destination
Who cares about his band when he's the founder of 10th planet bjj
His music fucking sucks, that's why he failed. It's dreadful
"shoulda went to college"
Went to CZcams University instead
lean. Get that Paper Youngster
Would love to see Part 2-10 of this. Please keep making these with Eddie.
He's got some wild ideas, but I have nothing but respect for the man. Him talking about becoming his own boss legit made me tear up as a miserable welder and metal fabricator. Only recently have I realized my dreams are more attainable than I realize and Eddie is a true inspiration.
A Horse Outside Hey man it’s all about perspective. I would love to be able to be a welder and a fabricator on cars or in general. I think fabricating on cars is really cool and interesting. His first choice was to make it big playing music but that didn’t make money so he started 10th planet and that led to him making money and being able to do what he loves (making music) on the side. So you can be a welder and still do what you love on the side or you could start your own shop/business to be your own boss, just lemme be your apprentice lol
Haha thanks. Yeah I think owning my own business would really make the welding fun again in a way. What's tainted the industry for me is the people. Every boss I've had is driven by massive ego and they're basically bullies. And a lot of the guys in the field generally tend to be dicks especially since I'm 22 and that makes me the youngest person pretty much everywhere I go. I could definitely see myself making metal art and working in cars as a side thing if I could somehow get a different job
A Horse Outside don’t worry about the dicks. Walk away and create your own. Do what “you” love!! As long as you have that desire yourself all these other people are just in your way. Learn thru em and keep pushing my boi!!!!
Your dreams are attainable if you want them. If you can't believe in yourself first then believe in someone similar to yourself. Then realise you're truly no different. Did you know no body ever ran a 4 minute mile until one Pro did it, then everyone in the game almost did that over the few years cos they learnt they could
Go for it mate. I have a pal who's doing fabrication and welding self employed. Hes real busy now
This is truly an inspiration.
Came back to re watch part 1 now that they finally put out part 2 after 2 years
Eddie Brah is a living legend. He has a truly amazing mind for grappling.
I never have seen that part of him.Usually on Joe's show he comes off like the class clown....but not here...Bad ass Eddie very impressed!
the Gracie's HATE Eddie for that win
only Royler
@@Zionsol777 and Royce
No
@Javier smith you mean sakuraba
They grappled to a draw in another contest a few years ago.
They did Eddie dirty in Brazil! Eddie is absolutely a living legend I'm a regular person who learn by just watching him. 👉🏾🏆
Eddie bravo would be the best Jiu jitsu instructor ever!
Damn, Eddie Bravo's mom was a SMOKE SHOW
thats eddie in a wig....look into it
specialK312 what time doe she show up? 😂 lol
That's bravo himself in wiggetry aka Mr. Wiggly
How is there not an episode 2? This was about to be a golden series.
They're still looking into it
I was finding it too,
It's free now on CZcams just put episode 2
So glad I came across this segment. I train in Jiu Jitsu and also do music. Both are amazing art forms. Thank you Eddie for sharing your story. You are doing great work for others.
The beginning gave me chills. Amazing!
I truly admire people like you there is not that many that can said "I rather be broke and and be my own boss"..
Yeah but you need to be a worker to get the funds to fund your master plan, king pin..
0:40 I got chills "He's a legend man, I can't believe I won."
Eddie is an amazing story-teller...
I'm just gonna take a second to appreciate the guys from flo grappling. The production value they bring into the sport is just incredible.
I don't practice BJJ but man I love Eddie
Alex UK you only practice BJ
your mums a 3rd degree black belt at that sport mate
you should train, BJJ changed my life I owe so much to BJJ.
Alex UK Eddie was my first coach and I hadn’t heard of him til I trained there. Then he became famous. Pretty wild.
1:30 the bong on the counter xD love it ^^
😂😂😂
Man ,I love the passion of this stuff.. This goes deep . You can tell Eddie truly loves teaching ,I’m sure he is loved much by his students. Inner strength !!
Such a genuine straight up guy, hard not to love this guy....crazy and all!
This guy is blessed with all kinds of talents , and one of them is perseverance.
He seems humble and friendly.....maybe his greatest talent ;-)
He'd be my dream teacher
Juan Chagoyan huh?
rasta man - And Rogan disrespects Eddie. Look at the video that Rogan is just talking shit but in a disrespectful manner. Fuck Joe!
G-Body Loc They're best friends, banter is inevitable.
Too bad none of his students can beat any of danahers students lol
@@chiva4life17 tony ferguson is his student and he will maul danaher or any of his students including connor
Eddie, hats off to you brother. Great work, great story!!!
This guy seems super cool and genuine. I never knew his backstory. Thank you for this great stuff.
Eddie Bravo, AKA "Edgy Bruh" .
The man, the myth, the absolute legend. Guaranteed future MMA hall of famer
Damn, so Rogan financed 10th Planet in the beginning? Helluva dude
How you know it was Rogan?
@@cdm317713 they have brought it up on the podcast
To bad Flograppling quit letting non members see the rest of this doc for free. Thought about becoming a member so I could watch the it. But for $30 a month or 150 a year seemed a little steep to see the rest.
EDDIE IS THE MAN!!!!!!
Eric Blair love your work.
Oh so that's why I can't find the 2nd episode? It's behind a paywall?
@@Jimmy0240 buy it and upload it
Is there a part 2 to this? If there is can someone pls link me. Thanks!
Thats wonderful for him. I wish him the best.
2:03 "My real father was never around" Edgy Brah's real father was Darth Vader?
@11:59
Eddie: What now Mr. Flexi-man?
*Kid dislocates his pelvis*
reiwell del yeah gotta be somewhat cautionary with a kid who is definitely worshipping EB there... knees are precious and man at that age while flexible just totally vulnerable to serious damage.
Len Martin are you dumb you know nothing about Bjj he is picking up his leg and putting it over his head so that he can get out of eddies control nothing to do with knees what so ever
@@grundy333 Actually as long as he is warmed up there is a slim chance he is causing any damage at all doing those moves.. he is putting his leg behind his head without the assistance of his arms...
Also that kid is wearing a *Joey Karate* rash guard.
He gotta be awesome
Joey Karate rash guard at 11:51
I could see Tony Ferguson being part of Eddie's bad ass group......oh wait... history is being made frfr
Eddie Bravo is such a living legend ... much respect.
This is truly awesome. Eddie is such a cool guy.
Thank you Eddie this is spend the most positive reinforcement for me to go back to Jiu-Jitsu class
Amazing stuff. Thank you for this upload.
8:47 "I'm that one in a million" 😂😂
Me all the time lmao
😂 I'm still on that confidence level 🤙 you make music too?
@@jensen_chuah sometimes

Very nice *trainer and teacher.* He motivates students well.
He could teach other things, and be good at that too !
This was so excellent, thanks allot for making this..
*Eddie bravo is the sensei of the century.*
I’ve been doing wrestling and Muay Thai for a while and just started bjj and I’m so glad I saw this video. Really set my mind straight before advancing too much
Amazing how far Eddie has come
1:30 there is a bong on his stove
lol just noticed that
Of course there is haha
It's normal to have a bong on the stove dude.
Bob Lazar jui jitsu and weed go together like peanut butter and jelly
dirty af too
Eddie bravo is such a good guy great story.
Finally looked into it. 🤘🤘
Eddie, I love you. The realist person I've Heard on CZcams. Thank you for representing the Novel in us all.
I'm an actor and musician and I started doing Brazilian jujitsu 2 months ago (started out just gi but eventually gut the guts to do NOGI) I started this to feel safe in my own skin for once in my life and also like Eddie I wanted to look good onstage lol so far I haven't regretted walking into my local gym in Arizona but I now dream of one day going to Hollywood and training with Eddie just once or even meeting him
This is really well done.
I find myself constantly re-watching this. So damn inspirational. Where can I find the other parts?
18:45 you mean Rogan? Rogan put on so many people on the side it's insane dude has handed careers to Diaz ari segura and bravo and does nothing but brag about how great they are. That's a stand up dude real talk
Cameron to say JR handed them careers is in my opinion not true. He definitely put his friends and family first, shouldn’t we all do that? Be the best you can be and help anyone who needs it
He didn't hand them shit, they worked and he just spotlighted them a bit. You're going overboard with your opinion.
KA Wall naw stfu nigga put some respect on ROGANS NAME he’s given careers to so many people and helped them out through it all, without him they wouldn’t be where they are today, Rogan is one of the most humble people that’s ever existed and many people will back that shit
Bro how are you gonna claim he handed Eddie a career this is literally a documentary about his come up. Diaz, Ari and Segura were all successful comedians before Joe.
Idk Jj dude. I love Joe but you cannot say joe handed them careers 😂 Tom, Ari, Bert, and Joey are all marginally better comedians than joe. Joe just has a much MUCH more podcast. They all came up together, Joe just ended up more famous
I like Eddie's ability to evolve from early influences into the Cure, Metal/Rap, & BJJ.
10th planet is flat
10th PLANE T
Look into it.
10th planet is Niviru

Just a guy living of his passions and making it, congrats!
This was so inspiring,heartwarming and motivational❤
1:31 Look how nice that bong is
Looks dirty
Damn this was really good, I expected to roll my eyes a few minutes in but stayed for the entirety.
This is so amazing, much love for Eddie. Interesting life sofar!
Eddie is a living legend!!!!
Eddie Bravo's mother was very pretty. 2:13

Shes hot 😅
“Should’a went to college” as he walks passed a bong.
Wow what a great guy! Much respect
A movie needs to be made on this legend. Love you Eddie
Love this dude...true Mexican.
Eddie looked like Sylvestor Stalones's kid in that movie 'Over the Top"
That kid is Anthony kedis. Lead singer of the red hot chili peppers. Google it
@@lonniecampbell8189 You got me lmao
Eddie Bravo is a jiu jitsu savant!
Blessed to witness his come-up. Legendary
😂😂😂
I never got to the level this man ( not even close ) . None the less I remember going to my first class and getting beaten badly through the months over the years . Things changed . Gave me a greater appreciation for the ability to defend those closest to me .
Is the earth really flat? Cuz i thought it was a triangle
it can be flat triangle
Only if that is the Edge! They (Say) there is more land.
Triangular earth, bro. Triangular earth...

RPRISNUMEROUNO Star triangles are flat. Did you mean pyramid?
5 minutes 30 seconds in this is the greatest show on Yotuube
I just love this video man
The more I watch and listen to Eddie, the more I like him. How can you NOT? Such a humble guy. Defeated Royler Gracie, one of the all-time greats in martial arts period, and shows so much class. Bravo!!! Pun not intended..😬
At 12 min when hes talking to that kid telling him every thing he needs to hear, You can really tell in that moment that Eddie is a genuine leader and all around good dude. Imagine if every young person had someone to talk to them like that the world would be amazing
Eddie looked white as a kid and Asian as a adult
bmcgmusic Thats all I see man lol
itsZukka No he looked white as a toddler, Hispanic as a teen, and now he's Asian lol....He's A RaceShifter....
Lippy Muff Woah... Raceshifter Imma “look it into it"
Lio lmao..!!
I thought he looked Filipino and Korea tbh
Eddie is a beast on the ground, a real talent.
I started following Joe. Because, I love Joe Rog. He got me interested in Eddie B. What a great story E. Bravo you are an inspiration and a totally good guy. Loved the vid
