You're better off dying, or taking your best shot there, because once you're in the car you have no chance. There is some chance they wont fire at you in front of witnesses, and it would make the whole point unnecessary to just kill you beforehand and might let you go to minimize emergency response. But once you're in their car, or worse, you stand no chance.

The universal sentiment seemed to be 'In a real life fight, if the other person has a knife, you WILL get seriously hurt regardless of how much more skilled you are than your opponent, so fleeing is always the best option.'
      So basically my self-defense technique is having a knife on me at all times and hoping any possible assailant agrees with the guys from the videos, lmao

      I think this is taking the pistol vs knife engagement problem to a whole different level, where you need so much time and so much distance in order to react and have a chance.

Theres an overwhelming chance even if you do manage to disarm an attacker with a knife you will get hacked and slashed in the process. Real life fights are fucking nasty panic stricken role in the mud affairs, full of frenzied and frantic kicking and gouging.

    @lucythebrazen 2 года назад +61

    I mean in military training I did learn how to disarm someone that points a pistol at you at close range, as we had about 40h of training on how to disarm people carrying handguns/knives. The point of all of this is doing that in less than a few hundred milliseconds, since human reaction time, in instances like that is 200+ ms. You gotta place one hand at his wrist, and slap at the gun with the other hand as hard as you can. If you are fast and well trained you might also manage to grab it in the process. But the most important part is getting yourself out of the trajectory. And in that case the highest goal is to get the gun out of their hands, getting it yourself is absolutely secondary.
    That's why you don't want to be in arms reach of someone you try to subdue. The biggest issue with training like this is that you either can make it realistic enough that you learn how to do it, while risking injury, or you do it like it is shown in the video where it might look badass, but won't help you much.
    But in the end, this isn't much more than a neat party trick you can pull of with friends to show off.

It is simple, versatile and brutally effective, especially against people who don´t have experience with being choked. Once you lock it in, the victim has about 3-10 seconds of conciousness left. I actually got choked out by it during a sparring session by mistake, so I have absolutely no doubt that it works. As for biting, it really depends. If you bite in a symbolic way, not even penetrating the skin, most people won´t let go. If you actually manage to tear out a piece of flesh though, most people will let go at least a little bit. It depends on the individual pain threshold of the attacker I guess. That being said, you are usually better-off using you arms and legs rather than your teeth, lol.

    @Korvmannen 2 года назад +2

    I see a major issue here with these disarms... People unconsciously and reflexively tighten their fists when adrenaline is pumping, and trying to disarm the gun from someone might actually make them shoot accidentally just because it caused them to clench their finger on the trigger. And to add to that, the brain does treat things that you are using as a tool basically like it's an extension of your body, and the mugger's brain will try to pull the gun back as if it was his hand almost. We would be kinda bad in hunting situations and warfare if we instantly loosened our grip of weapons as soon as we got startled.
    Even though they may not consciously have the time to react, the subconscious motor system doesn't need thoughtful intention to act, and rather just follow "basic programming" and reacts before you even are aware of what is going on (there's a considerable lag between seeing/feeling something and it entering your mind, I saw some estimate of ~120 ms between seeing and being able to act consciously). When you get startled you react before you know what's going on, that's the unconscious and faster type of motor reactions that we have.
    Fun anecdote about that though, once in the school cafeteria a fight broke out between me and another person as I was putting butter on a sandwich (standing up, both of us). She grabbed my hair from behind before I could react, and in that situation it was quite panicked and I tried to throw whatever punch I could. The principal eventually came to break up the fight, and as he pulled myself and her in our clothes out of the cafeteria I realized, "Oh, lol, I had the [plastic] butter knife in my hand the whole time" and tried to, as discreetly as I could, place it down on a bench on the way out. Her line of defense was something like "I just defended myself! He started it! I have butter all over my clothes now!" I sort of lose the ability to speak when in tense situations, but she had other issues so the principal understood the situation and just replied to her "Do you think he thinks it's fun? He also has butter on him." The only consequence for me after that was only that my father got notified that I had been in a fight, but nothing else, the next day everything was just back to normal... With clean clothes of course.
    If someone is robbing you, just concede. That's the sigma move anyway. Trying to act macho is what betas do.

    Pushing the slide back takes the gun out of battery, which will keep the gun from firing. Good luck getting that done before he pulls the trigger, and keeping him from just pulling the gun back and then shooting you.

    Here is how you don't die. Bring two wallets one with your credit cards and one with like 10 bucks. When the robber asks for your wallet give him second wallet. You keep most of your money.

    This is actually sound advice. If you have a solid injury / life insurance, you can bank on that by having the perp shoot you EVEN IF THEY DIDN'T WANT TO. Chad moves. You'll be smiling in your coffin / wheelchair knowing you banked on that buck.

    Actually, if it's certain designs of guns, pressing the barrel against you will actually prevent it from firing, but only very speciric models. I think Glocks? The barrel/bolt system naturally tilts down, and it wont fire unless the barel is sitting properly to prevent out of battery firing.

    Random tip: if you want to guage a martial arts technique's effectiveness, don't watch the demonstrator - watch their partner. It doesn't matter if the demonstrator can pull off a triple somersault double dragon axe kick, if their partner isn't resisting in any way, the technique is useless.

    ANYONE who thinks that a person holding them hostage will hold a gun to their heads is full of it. It's a small, very mobile target... Holding the gun against the back is far more effective for reasons that DUST should already know.
    Also, what if the rifle/shotgun is on a fucking lanyard? At that point, if I were the assailant, I'd let go of the shotgun/rifle, go for a pistol, and shoot.

    So I was looking at the kidnapping one closer and I thought for a moment they were using an actual technique for breaking someone's grip at the thumb... and no, no they weren't. Their fingers were nowhere near the part of the hand you would press down on to break a grip.
    The proper spot to press on to break someone's grip on something is just above the webbing between the index finger and thumb. If you press there, you can completely restrict the thumb's movement as well as straightening it, allowing you to break the grip.
    This, of course, would not prevent someone from punching you with their other hand, or just coming back in for round 2. It's a cool party trick, but rarely useful for self-defence.

    Vaush, don't be ridiculous. You don't use your thumb and forefinger to pinch the external hammer on a revolver. You use a credit card. You take a credit card from a secreted place on your belt and place it quickly between the hammer and strike plate. Then you casually break the wrist and walk away, preferably silhouetted by some sort of massive explosion.
    I'm a retired police officer who taught defensive tactics for a large department. Some of the crazy beliefs you run into are unbelievable. We were mandated to teach rear handgun takeaways for when a suspect has a gun pointed at the back of your head. I have had MANY new cops say things like, "I can't wait to do that in real life. That's badass." Of course I couldn't help but point out how ludicrous this is. "So, you want to be in the position of having a suspect pointing a gun at the back of your head, the worst of all possible positions. This appeals to you? Resign now..."
