I don’t know about trapeze, but… imagine a football team with wall-to-wall sumos for the offensive line. The defense wouldn’t even see the quaterback. That’s what the NY Jets need!
Many years ago I told my now fifty year old son a bedtime story about Honeybear Hershkowitz, the failed 400 lb. aerialist. Now it has been illustrated at last (although Hershkowitz is a rare name among Sumo wrestlers…)
It’s called a “Mowashi” and it is not a thong. With most sports being cancelled or played weirdly, folks might want to discover sumo: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/9999373/?cid=wohk-gg-us-dsa_site_en

I was wondering where I could fit this in! I just found this meme -

Somebody asked for a trapeze artist with big breasts.

I hope there’s a net. A very strong net.
And I hope the other trapeze artist isn’t having to face off against a Sumo wrestler in a ring somewhere.
Oh no, I just imagined the other trapeze artist in a mawashi and the Sumo wrestler in tights.

If there’s a net let him bounce. If there’s not let him splat

Reminds me of coming back from a long vacation and getting the “hand off” from the on call. Mine’s a bit more white collar though.

Why do so many Americans get repulsed by a sumo’s size and attire? Have you seen what walks on America’s summer beaches in a thong?
