that's because stacking is terrible, and only helps the guy trying to triangle you. This is an outdated escape that doesn't really work. Now I say doesn't really work because obviously if you're much bigger and more experienced then the person you're fighting you can make it work, but you won't against someone who's good, and your size. in fact the only reason that video is up is because Bas kicks his student in the head; watch close for a laugh.

There's plenty of good triangle defense's that don't require you to give them a chance to make it tighter and choke you out quicker, or sweep you.... which is basically all stacking does.
