http://www.facebook.com/bjjhacks -- Preview footage filmed in August 2013 of the recently deceased red belt Grand Master Renato Paquet. With great sadness, we received the news that GM Paquet passed away in Rio de Janeiro on the 17 November 2013. We release this short video of him training with Rico Vieira at the Checkmat academy in Rio de Janeiro as a tribute to his life and contribution to Brazilian jiu-jitsu. He never had an academy and never produced a champion, he was simply a normal man who loved jiu-jitsu and in his many years on the mat he inspired many. Film by Hywel Teague for BJJ Hacks http://www.bjjhacks.com/ Renato Paquet will feature as part of the upcoming documentary Red Belts: Grand Masters of BJJ.
