There is a reason why teachers are called teachers and students are called students. Whether it's education or sports, the fact remains the same in every sphere of life. A perfect demonstration of the same was recently on display in a video which is doing the rounds on social media.

In the footage, a rugby athlete can be seen making a surprise attack on his wrestling coach, who was not paying attention towards him. The coach was undoubtedly caught off the guard as the athlete got himself in a position of advantage, held his coach off his legs and knees and successfully managed to put him down on the ground.

Surprise clash between teacher and student

But there was a twist in the tale! In a dramatic and hilarious sequence of events, the tides turned in no time. As soon as the coach got down on the ground, he showed extremely quick reflexes to free himself from the grip of his student turned opponent.

While using all his experience, the coach grasped his student by the right hand while restricting his movement by using his left hand. And in a matter of a few seconds, the young athlete was pinned down with one of the coach's other students counting 1, 2, 3 to end the surprise teacher vs student clash.

The netizens really enjoyed the video as the post was flooded with comments. While one user opined that it was a fair reflection of reality as one can never takedown their coaches no matter how much you train and practice. Meanwhile, another person added that although it was a valiant effort, it will take way more than that if one wants to stand any chance against his sensei (teacher).

There were a few people who came up with interesting observations. While one pointed out that despite the coach's epic response, the water bottle which was behind his trousers' pockets did not fall off. There was one old person who made a hilarious remark stating that had he done that with any of his coaches during his early days, he would be given punishment to run laps for an hour.
