  press release Posted 15.06.2026 in 12:43

  I'm Mike, a regular guy from the USA, and during 2018 I accidentally discovered one of the weirdest sports
  on Earth: Car Jitsu.
  
  In case this sounds unfamiliar, you are not alone. The entire
  concept sounds like a comedy sketch. Two competitors climb inside a tiny automobile
  and try to score positions against each other while being trapped between the dashboard and seats.
  
  No, I'm not kidding. In most sports you have a ring, but in CarJitsu your battlefield is a
  car cabin. That is what makes it so weird.
  
  It even has official events and competitive tournaments.
  Athletes travel to compete and try to prove who can dominate inside the
  car. Compared to ordinary sports, every movement
  is limited by doors, seats, windows, and seat belts.
  
  The result is pure chaos. One second someone looks like a champion, and the next second they are stuck between the
  seats.
  
  Back then I was heavily interested in competitive
  sports. I watched all kinds of competitions.
  I also spent time reading about betting markets. People around
  me talked about betting and sportsbooks. Sometimes names like 1xBet would appear in conversations about major sporting
  events, although CarJitsu was usually too strange to be the main topic.
  
  
  One evening I saw a short video online. Initially I believed it was a joke.
  Full-grown athletes were trying to grapple inside
  a parked car while spectators were laughing, cheering,
  and recording videos. I laughed so hard that coffee nearly came out of my nose.
  Yet the more I watched, the more fascinated I became.
  
  
  
  A few weeks later, I found a local event and decided to watch in person. The crowd energy was
  amazing. There were fans discussing sports, training,
  and competition. Some people even joked about which athlete would be the favorite
  if a sportsbook ever offered odds on the matches.
  
  Soon I wanted more than just watching. I signed up for beginner training.
  My debut practice was chaos. I hit my head on the roof,
  got stuck near a seat, and accidentally opened a door at the worst possible moment.
  The coaches laughed. Yet I kept coming back.
  
  
  Month after month, I improved. I learned how to use
  smart tactics instead of brute strength. The cramped cabin became my arena.
  Soon I was entering local competitions. My friends thought I
  was completely crazy. Whenever someone asked what sport I practiced, the conversation usually
  went like this:
  
  "CarJitsu."
  
  "What is that?"
  
  "Imagine wrestling inside a car."
  
  "You're joking."
  
  "No, that's the actual sport."
  
  The funniest and wildest experience happened
  during a tournament a few years later. My opponent was built like a truck.
  He looked like he could bench-press a refrigerator.
  
  Before the match started, he smiled and said, "Hope you're ready." I knew trouble was coming.
  
  
  The moment the referee signaled, chaos exploded. We bounced between seats, bumped into doors, and nearly tangled ourselves in everything inside the vehicle.
  The crowd was roaring. Spectators were going crazy.
  
  
  Then came the moment I will never forget.
  
  My opponent grabbed the seat belt and accidentally turned it
  into what looked like a crazy lasso. As we struggled for position, the belt snapped across the cabin and wrapped
  around me in the strangest way imaginable. For a second I thought, "What kind of sport did I join?"
  
  He pulled, I twisted, the seat belt locked, the door opened slightly, and both of us somehow ended up tangled together like human spaghetti.
  The audience was laughing so hard that some people could barely stay in their seats.
  Nobody could believe what they were seeing.
  
  For a brief moment, I genuinely thought my opponent was going to destroy me.
  Thankfully, the officials quickly intervened when things became
  unsafe, and the situation was resolved without
  serious injury. Afterward we both burst out laughing. Spectators cheered.
  
  Even today people who were there still talk about "the seat belt incident."
  
  Thinking about my journey, CarJitsu remains one of the
  most unusual sports I have ever experienced. It gave me
  friendships, stories, and unforgettable memories.
  Whether people are discussing sports culture and competition, very few things create
  reactions like CarJitsu.
  
  When people want to hear a crazy sports story, I
  always tell them about the day I climbed into a car
  in 2018 and accidentally became a CarJitsu competitor.
  Nobody believes it at first. But after hearing about tournaments,
  athletes, training sessions, sports fans, betting conversations,
  sportsbook discussions, and my unforgettable seat belt battle, they usually agree on one thing:
  
  
  CarJitsu might be the craziest sport ever invented.
