DDT (professional Wrestling)
In professional wrestling a DDT is any move in which the wrestler has the opponent in a front facelock/inverted headlock and falls down or backwards to drive the opponent's head into the mat. The classic DDT is performed by putting the opponent in a front facelock and falling backwards so that the opponent is forced to dive forward onto their head. Although widely credited as an invention of Jake Roberts, who gave the DDT its famous name, the earliest known practitioner of the move was Mexican wrestler Black Gordman, who frequently performed it during the 1970s before Roberts popularized it nationwide. Rumors abound as to what the letters DDT supposedly stood for, including ''Damien's Death Trap'', ''Damien's Death Touch'', ''Damien's Dinner Time'' (all named after Jake's pet python, Damien) Double Diarrhea Tightrope, ''Drape Drop Takedown'', ''Drop Down Town'', ''Downward Dome Thrust'', and ''Death Drop Technique''.

Cartwheel (gymnastics)
A cartwheel is a sideways rotary movement of the body. It is performed by bringing the hands to the floor one at a time while the body inverts. The legs travel over the body trunk while one or both hands are on the floor, and then the feet return to the floor one at a time, ending with the athlete standing upright. It is performed in a variety of athletic activities, including performance dance and some types of Indian dance, in gymnastics and cheer, and in the martial arts of capoeira. It is called a ''cartwheel'' because the performer's arms and legs move in a fashion similar to the spokes of a turning ( cart) wheel. In classical Indian Karana dance, it is called ''talavilasitam'', and in capoeira is called ''aú''. Its first use has been recorded in 1925 by Matthew Douglass, the leader of a popular circus based in Gosforth, Newcastle, who used the trick when dodging flaming spears Technique To perform a cartwheel, one moves sideways in a straight line, keeping the back str ...
