wtf are you talking about?
if I throw someone down on concrete it will knock them out quickly
if I throw someone down on top of their head it will cause permanent injury
on the other hand you areunlikely to ever intimidate someone with Judo because it dosnt (sport form anyway) have anything you can do to show off your skill w/out grabbing the other person in some way

judo is effective if u study the real combat stylr of judo like the kind Gene lebell teaches. THere are 2 formsof every style of martial art one is a combat self defense style and the other is water downed sport kind. The problem why peeps say stuff doesn't work is peeps are training in sport form of a style and trying to do ufc. This how u get your ass kicked and peeps diss the art u practice. Judo Tom would be the best to ask about real judo. Imo Tom is very tech savvy on judo.
Here's a quick, gross oversimplification: Judo = jiu jitsu minus the parts that leave you with no one to spar with.
Once upon a time, the story goes, the local hard guys could practice on the local peasants all they wanted, and when they broke a guy's neck they'd just move on to the next one. Times change and that sort of casual experimentation falls out of favor. The founder of judo, Jigoro Kano, realized that jiu-jitsu was doomed unless it could be made into an art or sport, something that could be practiced without killing or crippling half the particpants at every lesson.
My first judo teacher (Korean guy. Another gross oversimplification: Korean = Japanese + American sense of humor) had no qualms about showing us how to take the techniques a little further to make them as "practical" as necessary.
In the dojo you pull the throw so your partner can keep playing.
On the street you'd do the opposite -- follow him all the way down and through. Add concrete instead of a mat, you're looking for the back of someone's head to become three inches closer to the front of his head. That'll "get her done."
Same instructor also said "You want to put a fancy wristlock on some guy with a knife? Hit him with a chair first, knock him out. Then play around with wrist, impress your girlfriend."
When was the last time your instructor came at you swinging a chair?

Judo is the SHIT in a street fight against a non-trained opponent, or someone from a striking art. You'll look like a total badass tossing someone to the ground. They run in to trouble against bjj practitioners though, who will pull guard before you can throw them. That being said, your average asshole on the street that wants to fight is not going to be a bjj practitioner, so judo on.
