Ude Garami
the 'Kimura'
Ude Garami is a 'basic' submission that places the shoulder and elbow at about 90 degrees each, and the arm as a whole is bent 'the wrong way' until one or both of these joints can no longer move. At this point, pain or damage begins, and the opponent is forced to choose between 'submission' or injury. In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, this technique has been known as 'the Kimura' since 1955, when Masahiko Kimura, one of the greatest fighters in Judo history applied the technique against Helio Gracie in Rio de Janeiro, dislocating his elbow (breaking his arm) and effectively terminating the match. To Helio's credit, he gave up almost 90 pounds to the much larger and stronger champion Kimura, and refused to tap after suffering the injury. His family forced him to surrender, throwing in the towel when it became clear that he would not quit.

You should not use submissions101.com clips to demonstrate techniques, as that guy always shows positions wrong, as he did in that clip of the kimura.
cool.
give me a link to your video and we'll put that up.
Here's a much better explination of the Kimura, with less holes in the technique (mind the sales pitches):
