Ghulam Mohammad Baksh Butt (22 May 1878 – 23 May 1960), commonly known by the title Rustam-e-Hind and by the ring name The Great Gama, was a pehlwani wrestler and strongman in British India and later, Pakistan. In the early 20th century, he was an undefeated wrestling champion of British India.
Those aren't real words
Backsy Butt, also known as Rusty Behind…I would not comment that in his face though.
Yeah, dude slapped a guy so hard he intimidated a violent mob into leaving. When he was nearly 70 years old.
Early in 1947 with the fire of hate spreading through Punjab Gama Sahib moved to Lahore and settled on Mohni Road. Gama Sahib told the Hindus of his mohala that if they are attacked he will defend them with his life and when one day a mob approached the community Gama Sahib stood in front of them with all of his group of wrestlers, as the leading hooligan came near a slap from Gama Sahib sent him flying and the rest ran away never to come again.
Well alrighty then
let's get the fuck outta here
Undoubtedly a heroic moment, but holy fuck how dumb do you have to be to step up on a national strongman/wrestling champion in fisticuffs? 70 or not, I ain't throwin' hands with no one who could lift me over their head and snap me like a twig.
