Clutch

On manual transmissions, the clutch is a mechanical device--operated by the clutch pedal--that engages and disengages the engine from the transmission so that you can change gears, idle without moving, etc. It generally consists of a clutch disc, a pressure plate, and a flywheel.

Camel Clutch

The pro-wrestling move used by the Iron Sheik in 70s and 80s. The opponent would be laying on their stomach on the ground, and the Iron Sheik would sit on their back, clutch the opponents chin with both hands locked together, and pull back in hopes of submission. The Iron Sheik famously defeated champion Bob Backlund with this move and Hulk Hogan was the first to break the hold and went on to win the title from the Iron Shiek.
