A slight variation, known as a diving DDT or a Halo DDT, exists and sees the wrestler and the opponent both on an elevated surface, albeit with the wrestler facing the ring. This can also be performed as a double team move. The attacking wrestler then falls backwards so that the opponent is forced to dive forward onto his/her head with extra force due to the height of which they were dropped. ring ropes), making them the only thing other than the wrestler keeping the opponent off the ground. The attacking wrestler next draws the opponent away from the elevated surface leaving the opponent's feet over the elevated surface (i.e. This version of a DDT first sees an attacking wrestler place the opponent on an elevated surface, usually the ropes/turnbuckle, while applying a front facelock. Other modified versions exist, such as a lifting version and a variation where the attacker applies body scissors prior to executing the move. The faceplant variant is technically known as an implant double underhook DDT. It is also known as a double arm DDT or a butterfly DDT. Instead of applying a head or face lock, the wrestler bends his opponent forward and hooks each arm behind the opponent's back, tucks the opponent's head under one of his arms, and then falls back to pull the opponent down either flat on his face, which is the more common variant, or onto the top of their head, causing them to roll over, like in a regular DDT.
The wrestler falls down to the mat front first, driving the opponent face first down to the mat. The wrestler lifts the opponent onto his shoulders as in a Argentine backbreaker rack, pushes the opponent's legs while still holding the front facelock, flipping them over to the front of the wrestler. Variations Front facelock variants Argentine DDT Similarly, the DDT maneuver buries an opponent's head into the mat, and is therefore (in kayfabe) hazardous to the brain and spinal cord.
Many think the term DDT was applied because the chemical DDT is a hazardous chemical buried in the ground which potentially causes brain damage and defects. When asked what DDT meant, Jake once famously replied "The End." The abbreviation itself originally came from the chemical dichloro-diphenyl-trichloroethane, a notorious pesticide, as stated during shoot interviews and Jake's Pick Your Poison DVD. Rumors abound as to what the letters DDT supposedly stood for, including Drop Dead Twice, Demonic Death Trap, Death Drop Technique and Damien's Dinner Time after Jake's pet python Damien. The move was named by Jake "The Snake" Roberts, who accidentally invented the move in the 1980s. 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 his or her head.

However, this ruling was vetoed by the EPA administrator without even reviewing a transcript.In professional wrestling a DDT is any move in which the wrestler falls down or backwards to drive a held opponent's head into the mat. It was later concluded in a 1972 public hearing that "there is no scientific basis for the ban on DDT". Furthermore, following the ban on DDT, more dangerous and less effective insecticides became commonplace. Apes have been fed 30 000X more DDT than people are normally exposed with no harmful effects whatsoever. Concentration in humans doesn't even come close to causing adverse effects. DDT has been blamed falsely for declining populations in bald eagles, peregrine falcons and brown pelicans all without scientific basis. Seperate studies have shown however that DDT has little or no impact on bird shells, let alone cancer. It largely triggered the envronmentalist movement in the US. This launched a major public overreaction in the US, and DDT was banned due to public pressure. Rachel Carson published a poorly-researched paper in the 60s, reporting that DDT causes birds to produce thinner eggshells and possibly cancer. Miracle insecticide that almost completely wiped out malaria and similar diseases in the US and the third world.
