What does DDT mean?

Just asking what does DDT mean.

Dreaded Duplicate Thread.

DDT was the first modern pesticide and is arguably the most well known organic pesticide. It is a highly hydrophobic colorless solid with a weak, chemical odor that is nearly insoluble in water but has a good solubility in most organic solvents, fat, and oils. DDT is also known under the chemical names 1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane and dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane (from which the abbreviation was derived).

Haha.

It's also a wrestling maneuver.

Thanks for clearing that up

I was not aware of this? I can't say that I recall Hulk Hogan indulging in a DDT? Can you perhaps describe to the viewers how one performs this manouver?

Wrestling I remember liking it when I was younger... Big Daddy, Giant Haystacks memories jumpers for goalposts... World of Sport Bullseye arrrgghh nostalgia alert!!!

Mick McManus!!

You put your opponent's head between your arm and body (arm bent, head inside elbow, against body.) You then drop backwards causing your opponent to fall headfirst into the ground.

That used to be callled a 'headlock' ! Mrs E has perfected that move, let me tell you!

Now that's kinky.

Depends what you mean by 'head' ....

And Yes;most of mosquitos and other insects have either mutated or have become to be immune from DDT.Its still used as fogging in my country;and everytime municipal truck comes for fuming I just go for my life mask....cough I think they /someone just fumed it here.Smelled it ?

The difference between a headlock and a DDT is that you drop the person headfirst while holding it. A large number of people slap the person's back for some reason (most likely to imitate the move's inventor, Jake 'The Snake' Roberts).
