In this video Nick Drossos is teaching how to deal with a much larger attacker.
"How to defend myself against a much taller attacker?" This is a common question that we get, so we decided to make a video explaining self defense tips to use against a taller and larger attacker.
We brought you a 6'7" 230lbs attacker to show how strong and powerful such an opponent can be!
Size is certainly an important factor in a fight. Taller attackers have a huge range advantage; they can strike a smaller attacker much easily because of their long arms. Also, because of their size, they usually have a lot of power coming in with their strikes.
Because of that, you need to be prepared and know what to do against a taller attacker. Having to experience and face a much taller and stronger opponent for the first time in a street fight is not a good idea.
A great way is to practice in advance and in a controlled area what it feels to be pushed and shoved by a much taller opponent. You can do a similar drill to the one that was shown in the video.
Your self-defense training should include attackers from various sizes.
If you are ever faced against a taller opponent, you want to try to defuse the situation as much as possible. Here are some verbal defense tactics that you can use against a taller attacker:
"I don't want to fight you"
"I apologize...Let's talk about it"
"I can give you some money"
"How much money do you want"
"I'm sorry, it won't happen again"
While defusing the fight, you need to be prepared to strike your attacker at all times. Here are some strikes that you can use against a taller guy:
• Headbutts - They are powerful strikes - Your forehead will more or less be aligned with the softer part of your attacker's facial area - Deliver a solid blow to the nose of your opponent.
• Eye gouge - Rip into your attacker's eyes and face - it's very effective!
• Solid Knees - If a clinch as occurred, throw in some solid knee strikes.
• Pre-emptive strikes - Against a much taller opponent, you need to strike first.
Make sure not to give him the chance to hit you first. You can't afford to take a punch against such a taller and bigger guy. It only takes one solid punch from such a bigger opponent to knockout someone smaller.
p.s. Remember to have your hands up at all times to cover your centerline.
We hope that you enjoyed the video.

Balls through the roof of his skull!

Apeeling Banana Bruh.
Apeeling Banana sorry but no it will not work
Apart from all these, if your mom's name is Martha you can also randomly refer to her during a fight
Bat v sup
Why did you say that name????
sheffieldmvp ur a ur a fuckin idiot
he was just saying batman's respond ....
Even if your opponent dresses like a bat it's guaranteed to work!!
I hate to be this guy, but the video starts at 4:15
No, it starts at 00:01
@@ChristheCEO1 nice one bro. Really showed him there
@@DonFergiee , lol
Steel Worker thankyou
Chef no it starts 0:0
one of you guys is lying about your height
Jay Hamilton not lying but I’m only 5’5 lol
The guy with the hoodie is not 6'7.
There's like a 3 inch difference between em
@@H.K.5 yea has 6 3
That dude ain't 6'7
The acting was awesome. Sadly many fights nowadays involve a weapon so won't help :(
Nick Drossos do you know how disarm someone with a gun to your face, I do.
Mr McDurp of course he do, he's made plenty videos on that already
Nicolai ok
Mr McDurp he's awesome cuz heales video on kinds of self defence, guns, knifes, bigger opponents, kicks, punches, all that great stuff
Nicolai has he said that if you don't train to these techniques a lot, then you'll still freeze up in the real situation
"literally twice my size...." Not really.
Ikr
Theban Ned Greenman 5’11 isn’t even short and compared to 6’7 it’s only the short end of tall at the most
He's more than twice his size. If he was twice his size, he would be 220 and the guy is 230.
Reaction Guy kid 5,11 is short besides 6,7 and This guy wasent 6,7 i Can tell he’s like 6,4 or 6,5 not even close to 6,7 then He would be a head taller and he’s only Half off a head taller not even half off a head so yeah
@@xdevilxx-_-demons3263 5'11 is not short
As someone with a long fighting background. Your methods and mindset are very realistic
the dude in the white jacket just gets the biggest boost in self esteem. haha 0:35
i was looking for this comment
"Hurhur me so big thanks mommy hurhur"
Lol I saw him smiling
Gets the same at 5:41 :-)
I've been short my whole life, and it's amazing what a good uppercut under the nose can do. Smaller people can hit very fast. Use that to your advantage. Think pitbull!
Yeah also being shorter makes it easier to put on more muscle weight you can easily bulk up to 230 at 5’11 mike Tyson was 5’10 and weighed 220lbs in his prime I myself weigh 225lbs at 5’11 mostly muscle
But I am above average height so I still wouldn’t say I’m short
Lol not against somebody that has a little training...
@@joesessa184 🤣🤣🤣 try to do what he does then talk lol is not that easy am boxing i know what i say trust me
@@daniellozan350 I am six foot, rugby player (not even a fighter), I have taken down professional and ex boxers countless of times, I can destroy you with ease
He's not 6.7 ft, He look like 6.3 ft compare to 5.11 ft *****
FantasyNero First thing I thought, no way that guy is 6'7. 6'4 tops.
TheRoseExperience Yeah he look like shorter than 6'7 like between 6'3 to 6'4. right
TheRoseExperience
The guy is not 6'7"" he would be way taller than a 5'11'' guy
it funny because the other guy weighs less than me and i am shorter.
FantasyNero sometimes really tall guys have bad posture and perhaps shrink due to their spine curving! Id still give him a good 6'5 in this video!
Sam Levy No, when you 6 feet or 5'11 and you came in front this guy you will know mate :)
Thank you for making this video! ☺💚💚💚
Being 4'9 this can be very handy... Even though I dontt get into fights or people want to fight me its good to know... Anything can happen..
Midget.
Mister Babadook Boy, I'm still fabulous ✋✋😋😂
Short girls are sexy ;)
"How to fight a bigger ,taller guy". RUUUN!!!.LOL
Ahmed Khalil he is probably faster
Hyper Gaming It depends on how much. I know tall guys who can run super fast and some who can't run for shit.
Jojo reference?
@@blackhoodie4170 no I tried they are really faster because of legs I'm tellin ya
@@blackhoodie4170 I'm talking about running because dodging-vise only technique matters cuz in reality u can't Dodge like UI Goku or Jeet kun doh Spike Spiegel: punches will still touch you but not in the vital spots so I would say dodging is mostly useless and you better use dives step-backs or blocks, because dodges are only useful in liver counter attack combination.
Definitely not 6'7 maybe 6'3 on a good day
1:23 that's only 4 inches? Go see an eye doctor.
T ur right as a giant myself standing at 7,3 204 kilos muscle No joke i Can cleary see Nick is nowhere near 6 foot 7😂
You guys can’t really judge height from a video
I think he’s 6’4” Maybe 6’5” he was slouching a little bit when they were next to each other
@@xdevilxx-_-demons3263 me too at 7’4
This guy has some of the best self defense videos on RUclips. There's no bullshit, no fake or unrealistic flashy techniques, he tells it like it is, gives realistic scenarios and how to handle them.
Thanks
If that dude was 6ft 7 he should be a head length taller that guy can barley see over the others head I would say he is 6ft 4
Tyler Thomas check 4.43, it looks like he is a head taller
Tyler Thomas Some taller guys have bad posture or loose some of their height due to spine curvature! BUt he still looks a good 6'5
EVeryone shrinks once they get older! He probably was 6'7 20 years ago lol
Okay goddam it he might not be 6'7 but he's around that height. What difference does 1 or 2 inches do dumbass.
eminemishh a lot if a 6ft guy is next to a 6ft 2 guy there isn't much but now let's put the 6ft 2 guy next to the 6ft 4 guy still not much difference but now let's put the 6ft guy next to the 6ft 4 guy big difference stupid fuck
At 5' 6" I have been on the receiving end of this on nearly every confrontation I've had. Good video and advice, Nick.
+pepe cojones I'm 5'6 and 200lb+ powerlifter, the majority of people just stay out my way - My TL at work is a 6'3 230lb ex doorman and he was telling me that his worst nightmare was fighting people like me, short people have a centre of gravity advantage and we don't have to protect our chin so much against a taller person - my favourite when I was kickboxing was to take peoples knees out.
Midgets (guys under 5-7) are easy to pick up by the ears and throw against a wall or up on a roof -from what I've seen.
+tory mountain LOL that would be like calling someone who is 6' a giant...average male height is 5-9.
Sounds like you've been tossed up a roof a few times.
tory mountain What?
Watching this vid makes me remember the time when I fought off my cousin who was like 5 feet something (I was only 6 years old :P) cause he was kind of bullying me. I punched him and as a typical child, bit him in the arm lol. He never messed with me again after that day XD
Watching this as a tall guy myself benefits me a lot, you know what I mean
How to calm that guy down:
"Hey, I like Rammstein too"
This comment is so underrated lmao
That was one of the first things I noticed in the video lol.
Love Rammstein! Can't wait for their new album!
He is not 6'7 Lmao! Not even close! If Nick is only 5'11 then I'd put this guy at 6'5 TOPS. What a liar.
Well things look alot different on camera. You can never get the full experience.
+Mr Monocle Ok that's why the top of his head is ending around the nose just like the video with the 6'4 attacker. Lol it's the biggest joke to even think this guy is 3 inches taller than him watch that video. They're around the same height. It's generous to say this guy is 6'5 never mind 6'7.
Uncle Buck Good point. But why does it matter again?
It doesn't but still, why lie? Especially by as much as 3 inches because people are gonna look at you and know dang well your not that tall. I'm 6'1 and can easily tell if someone is 3 inches or 6 inches taller than me.
+Uncle Buck You can tell if someone is 6'7 or 6'5 just from a video? Maybe Nick's hat makes him look taller, maybe the heels on his shoes are a little bigger. Guy looks pretty tall to me, not sure why someone would lie about their height.
Haaaaaaa I really remember this technique of talking telling him you have to give them money or any other materials and then ran...
(≡3≡) What I did to avoid fighting a taller person is I said "Ok fine, we'll fight" I put up my fists and when I saw he was distracted...
I ran like hell.
"How to Defend against a much taller attacker"
*Runs away*
That Rammstein hoodie though
I like ur icon. GOJIRA! :D
Du hast
Meh
Du hast schmet!
What is your obsession with head buts dude? Those can hurt you as much or more than they do your opponent.
I was thinking the same thing.
Headbutts are very strong, quick and relatively easy to land at such close ranges. If you hit someone with your forehead, the thickest part of your skull, on their nose or chin, it's going to do your opponent way more harm than you. Basically, lots of power generated in a very short space.
It's a forehead to a nose, how can it hurt you more -.-
Not if you know what your doing
I guess thats my problem I have no idea what im doing
Throat strikes can kill. Just sayin...
+Josh Pickles Better be judged by twelve than carried by six. But yeah, throat strikes can definitely murder someone, so I wouldn't use them unless the attacker has a deadly weapon or is much bigger than me.
Oh I agree. Just about not using excessive force. I'd do the same if they had a weapon.
***** That's fine. You do whatever you feel you need to do. But why are you telling us though?
+Josh Pickles who cares? a guy so much bigger and stronger like you could kill you even if he didnt want to
I would attack the testes and his throat u kno..fuck em up before u fuck them up
i got hit in the throat once, totally debilitating, tall dudes tend to have more throat to hit as an exposed target. - as always, the best advice is to avoid the altercation altogether, if possible.
In fights such as this, often times there isn't time to think.
yeah but if you in the hood, selling drugs, fucking up, even killing mothafuckkas everyday, there's time to practice
Jionni Lil stfu 😂
TheDimachaerus You will get a feeling what to do if you have experience
The opponent will probably throw me before I even see him
Just grab Nick's pony tail and yank
Excellent advice. I have been training for 40+ years. Even so, my best line of defence is not to be there. Always be aware of your surroundings. Learn to read/sense body language, negative energy. Women are better, (have a natural ability) at having a sense of someone wanting to harm them than men. If your gut is telling you something is wrong, there is something wrong.
I avoided an armed robbery in S. Miami while waiting for lights to change red by using my peripheral vision to notice a black man jump out of the bushes at 2am. He had a white towel draped over his arm held at 90 degrees. Before he had a chance to rob us the moment he cleared the driver's front corner I barked an order for my brother to drive through a red light. It is ok to break the law, to survive in a self defence, life and death situation. This all happened in very short seconds!
Another time a truck drive that was loosing boulders pulled over as I motioned to him. He walked towards me with his right hand not swinging, I observed him concealing a 3 foot 3" diameter steel pipe. I put my hands up, palm open and began to say to him to take it easy, take the car if you want it. I kept my distance, always aware of the distance he and I could cover based on sparring with people his size. Turned out he was 6'6" weighing about 300lbs. A very big, angry boy, much bigger than me with a weapon to boot. He raised the pipe, I thought he was going to hit the car. I did not care about the car that was running door open, my briefcase on the front seat. I was getting ready to run if I needed to right on the side of the highway. He grunted, turned around and left. I called police and the officer who arrested him told me he shit his pants dealing with him. He wondered how I managed to stay calm cool and collected. Simple answer. Many years of training. My friends asked me what karate move I did on him. I said the best one I know, ready to run. Being a hero, can get you killed, no matter how much training you have. learn to survive.
right,there's always someone bigger and badder out there
No it's called paranoia.
also, bad people have friends and maybe even a weapon. you don't wanna try and be Steven Seagal
that is bullshit
It's not true that ones gut instinct is always correct in regards to folk's intention to attack. A large percentage of the population do actually project unwarranted fear and paranoia onto non-perpetrators. I've seen this millions of times, you must be living in cotton wool to not realize it.
For example I walk a lot late night for relaxation, I enjoy it. I've done this for 20 years. I may look scary to a woman, but I am the safest person a woman would come across at night, I mean no-one ill-will. And I do my best to use body language that lets them know I'm not a threat if I come across someone who is uncomfortable about walking at late.
Still, I have had women freak out when they approach me. Most stuck it up, go past and nothing happens. But I've had women come to within 20 metres of me then actually do a 90 degree and run across the street. Now her gut instinct is the opposite of reality, in fact she is far more safe with me around than not. I see perpetrator projection all the time. Also, not often, but occasionally I have had guys have a go at me because they thought their gut was telling me I was a threat on these late night walks. I"m very relaxed walking at night, however most folks are not, and I find it sad to see them in discomfort over a safe guy like me. And if they go for fight not flight based upon that false reading, then the bloke you were speaking to in your comment is the one that creates the problem.
The main reason folks get attacked is because of this paranoia. The best way to trigger a person is to project fear onto him, they take it as an accusation, you are calling them a perpetrator, a bad guy. This is why I rarely have problems walking at night, I assume the best unless indicated otherwise. And even then, it might not be a problem if I treat them like a good guy and I don't project fear and suspicion onto him.
I don't look cagey walking past people, even if they are pretty loose. Looking cagey and suspicious is the best way to trigger guys. And life is more enjoyable for me, I get about without always being fearful and paranoiad, triggering people or imagining all these possible threats that probably won't materialize.
Only two nights ago I had this steroid guy with a trophy wife pull up ahead of me while I"m walking, get out and aggressively ask if I'd picked up his wife's keycard on the ground I had just passed. I answer no I hadn't seen anything, but he wouldn't believe me. Even in this situation, I don't project fear onto him. He would take that as permission to aggress further. By not projecting the same back to him he ended up putting his head down and walked away mumbling to himself. It's amazing how much trouble we attract by projecting a a fight or flight response onto another. Of course I was ready for it and always am, however through fear people often create problems where they could be avoided.
I don't believe in being naive or never heeding your fear either. I'm really just communicating the opposite side of the equation as you're unbalanced towards the other side. The truth is that sometimes one's gut instinct is right and sometimes wrong.
This also depends upon the person. Many people's gut instincts are consistently wrong because they are paranoid and living in their fear. Some people' s instinct is consistently right, but you will only be in touch with that reality if you are not actually paranoid. Paranoia will make you wrong nearly every time, and as a result you create a lot of problems with others that would otherwise not exist. The cons far outweigh the pros.
This is a really good video, but my thinking is, If you dont have a confrontational character, you will not have the confidence to think about all of that whilst he is pushing you around. I have been attacked and had the sh*t kicked out of me on a couple of occasions and I'm a small guy too. Never picked a fight ever....However I was walking with my son yesterday, and 2 idiots decided that they were bored and started with the verbals. The fear on my sons face was enough for me to see red. When I confronted them, they almost dissolved as they could see that I was ready to unleash in whatever way I could. It's all about the moment, and the frame of mind that you are in, and what it is you are protecting.
Seriously, thank you for your posts. My friend was almost attacked last night. She is a tiny little thing. She got into an disagreement that turned into an argument with an extremely large man that just got way too out of hand. Had my mother not been there to step between them I am almost sure he would have really hurt her something terrible. We are lucky my mom (also a very tiny woman) was there and that she somehow managed to defuse the situation and he left, but it shook my friend really bad. She was horribly upset and very very scared. She couldn't believe that the man had snapped and flew into such a rage just from her asking him to please stop speaking to her so rudely. She felt such a loss of power over her own self from it all. I don't want her to feel that she can't stand up and ask a man to please stop speaking to her. I don't want her to feel like she can't speak her mind to someone because they are so much larger than her. She didn't set out to argue with this man. We think he had some kind of diagnosed manic disorder to be honest, but you can't spend life being afraid that anyone bigger than you could be manic and might fly off the handle. So today I got on youtube with a mission to find self defense things to try and help her gain back the control she lost last night. I have been sending her these videos you have on here. I told her that i will even take some kind of self defense class with her if she wants. This is just so important. What you are doing is just extremely important and I want to let you know that and to say thank you from me and her both. So yeah. Thank you, a million times thank you. We are gonna practice these things and keep watching your videos.
Simp
Don't even think about facing a man that's taller, bigger than you barehanded. Please get some self-defense weapons. These techniques are low-probability ones. Yes, they might work 30% of the times but most likely the man will just take the shots and hit back, and one hit from the bigger man and you're sleeping in a hospital
The small guy got that gta 5 drip 💀
Thank you for this video. I'm 59 yrs old and where I live there was a guy called Eric Adams that use to live here. He was beginning to be my friend but betrayed me. He comes back off and on to where he once live. When he comes he always uses my name and I hear him wanting to fight with me and want to kill me at that. I try to not start anything, but I very much aware that he's around. I also have his friend that side with his name is Bernie a nextdoor neighbor that lives here at 1f and he threatens me off and on too. I just want to say thank you for this video and I will use these self defense technique to defend myself from these young bullies. I live in the South Bronx in NY apartments 1g. Again I thank you for this video and may God be in your presence always.
A swift kick in the nuts, doesn't matter if you are 7 feet tall, you're going down after that!
Martial Masters that is true, but a liver strike has been scientifically tested to incompasitate anyone for this reason:
The capsule around the liver has a lot of nerve fibers. It’s directly linked to the autonomic nervous system. When there’s a sudden blow, there are dynamic pressure changes in the actual organ itself, and that stretching of the organ - if you compress one side it stretches on the other because it’s pliable - causes these nerves signals that go directly into the autonomic nervous system and can cause a complex cascade of events. It's something you can’t control mentally, and it causes a sudden dilation of all your blood vessels everywhere except for the brain. At the same time, your heart rate decreases. Normally, to maintain blood pressure, if your blood vessels dilate, your heart beats faster to maintain the pressure in the cardiovascular system, but if you dilate the blood vessels and drop the heart rate, the blood pressure suddenly drops dramatically. Essentially that’s what’s happening with the blow to the liver: The fighter takes a shot, you get this nerve signal going into the autonomic nervous system, your blood vessels dilate, the heart rate decreases, the blood pressure suddenly drops, and the athlete collapses. You can’t control it. You’re down.
The reason for the collapse is, when your blood pressure’s going down, your body tries to instinctively control the blood pressure, and if it can’t raise the heart rate or restrict the blood vessels, it puts the body in a supine position so that it can maintain some blood flow to the brain. Because if you lose blood pressure to the brain, obviously it’s not compatible with life. The liver is pretty low and easy to reach even if the opponent is trying to protect it a light punch in the liver can potentially knock someone out or make them think they are going to die. The liver is located in the upper right-hand portion of the abdominal cavity, beneath the diaphragm and on top of the stomach, right kidney, and intestines. The liver, a dark reddish-brown organ, has multiple functions.
It doesnt matter if you can't feel pain or under adreniline a liver shot WILL knock you out if hit hard enough unless you have like 1 foot of fat protecting your liver in that case whats the point of the liver shot
Adam Weishaupt ur right im 7,3 204 kilos muscle and im undeftead street fighter and MMA fighter my 5,10 friend Marcus took me Down with a kick to the nuts and i have never ever been taking Down Before im a huge😱☹️
Theres a reason why nut strikes are illegal in contact sports; its highly effective.
A fight is a physical chess match. When you play a game against a skilled player, you will see the efficiency in moves planned many moves ahead. It's never about rook vs rook, knight vs knight. That's what a boxing match or UFC match is about. A fight is about survival, just as a game of chess is a micro expression of war. It's not about squaring off. A street fight is about someone using whatever they have; be in knowledge, experience, weapon, or any combination to end you. Here is a nice way to deal with this scenario.
I'm 5'7'' 160 for some rare reason I always get bigger opponents trying to get in my face. Whether it be at the soccer filed, basketball court or after the club. So far things havent escaladed to another level. I've also been able to defuse the situations by talking but I know sooner or later I'll will have to use one of these technics. Thanks for the videos man really helpful.
Never show them fear

tall people have longer legs and are faster so yeah only short people need training.
same with me ahahhahaha
@@marthekirby2596 shut up short people can be faster than tall people look at Usain bolt 6,5 if he was about 6 feet his start on the starting line will be soo good I recon his time would be 9:40 seconds bro
@@marthekirby2596 Longer legs doesn't make you faster. I'm only 5'8 and I haven't lost a race in 10 years. I beat the fastest kid I knew in my college three times who is over 6 foot and Jamaican.
Longer extremities require more energy expenditure. I knew a lot of Vietnamese and small Mexican paisanos who were fast as hell!
I like that the mindset strategy takes priority in this video, talk, run, deescalate, probably much more important techniques than whatever strike. Good to count with everything in your arsenal
im in 6th grade and i told a kid to stop bullying another kid and now he called he 8th grade cousin on me and that guy is huge
sucks
Talk to authority/law about it. Tell em, you don't have to fight everybody, or even anybody.
i eat doodoouly nigga lol call me and my boys we will fuck that nigga up I'm in 10th grade and I'm short but I can fight and my squad are mad buff yo just tell him in your friend and if he messed with you I'm finna tear him a new ass
act weird... if they think something is wrong w u they tend to run away...
wtf is wrong with kids these days !
i don't belive in backing down I don't want to sound like a punk but stand up for yourself if you don't win you will go down trying.
I agree with what you just said, sargent games.
thanks
dude just fight them like they killed your family. they want to intimidate you so that they feel good
+Alissah Kat you've obviously never seen a street fight before.

But isn't that the wrong anime?
Looking at this cause my JROTC teacher wants some beef with me on God this ain't a joke
Damn good luck out there man
This advice is sooo realistic. Really good stuff. This guy knows reality, not ninja MMA BS.
Thanks
Everyone has knee caps.
Eric Tippett and balls
audex Women too? Damn, where you at? Thailand?
girls, srsly?, the only woman i fear is ronda rousey
audex What about Joanna Kedrzejczyk? The woman looks like a gorrila and it a pretty good fighter.
she is just puny 115 Lb i can lift her over my car and throw her away
I’m 5’6/5’7 and most of the guys I fight on the street are between 5’9 and 6’2. Granted I have MMA experience, but what I’ve found is that I have a lot of luck going for the chest and knees. Taller guys are usually less muscular and because the center of the chest is an area you can’t train, it’s typically an incapacitating blow. The knees are easy to kick in and more likely to be seriously affected by someone with fighting experience as well.
True I’m 5’11 and weigh 225lbs mostly muscle so I’m heavier then a lot of taller guy’s
Also I have a friend you’re height that weighs 325lbs and he wrestles in super heavy weight division
I came here to get ready to defend myself from the killer clowns 😂😋😡😅😂🙀🙀🙀 Lolol actually I'm gonna say this in some videos
Da Juan lol
the goal is to be yourself and improve the quality of your life for YOU. Dont do it to get the girl, cuz it’ll all crumble if she leaves or whatever the case. They’ll come if you become the best self possible. As said “dont impress HER, BE impressive”
Once you are a very skilled guy, then you can make everything seems easy.
When Mike Tyson fought taller guys (and he almost always did) it looked like it was Mikes great advantage. With a body position ways too low to get caught. Up and BOOM!
Mike Tyson also didn’t weigh 160 pounds like the guy in the video 😂 I’m legit this dudes height and weigh 225lbs mostly muscle
Hey Nick thanks a lot for this channel and the information you put out here, I'm not a fighter nor do I see myself ever getting into a fight but I've been watching your videos for almost a year now and I can say that I just feel a lot more comfortable when I'm out and about. I've taken a lot of your advice and even practiced it a little bit and I really don't fear getting into a physical situation anymore because I feel safe. Thanks again!
Why is the guy wearing a sweater and a zip sweater
Style
Does it really matter?
Wow i forgot about this, like 2 years ago
Well This a Real story and funny af im 7 foot 1 167 kilos muscle im 1 of the Best boxers where im from im also a street fighter and im undefteaded in both things meaning i never been beated Before but here the funny part my 5 foot 10 72 kilos friends won over me with one move the trick was.........
He kick me in the Balls Before i was ready😂😂
I’m watching this years later, I’m in sixth grade and I got attacked by an eighth grader who was six feet
Nick this video was right on the money. As a guy whose 5'7 and having been picked on as a kid I can testify that your advice concerning the option to escape was good advice. Also, I've been teaching karate for a few years and have always taught my students that getting in close to a bigger opponent is always better. Muscles are most powerful when they are fully extended so staying inside that long reach is beneficial.

Bruh I got beat up by 6 feet guy because I laughed at his joke
I fought a kid who was 6' 3" I'm only 5'7" his swings were slow and since I was wrestling he was very easy to take down. I had him in a position where I held his right elbow with my arm across his face. His face was defenseless as I swung to it. I let him up and you could see how light headed he was from the punches and swung even slower. Since I'm shorter I could easily avoid his punches by crouching slightly and had the advantage to uppercut him.
This seems good im a midget and id like to fight someone before schools over. I would rather get respected before leaving
howd it go
@@martincristovao6561 he's dead I fough him writing this from jail
That is great advice, to try and defuse and deescalate, but if it doesnt work then it can lower your opponent's defense and they won't see the strikes you are about to unleash. Its a great psychology tactic to lower their defenses.
If you run off, you need to step to the side and run past him. You don't want to have to turn, you want to make the big guy have to turn and start running. You get a lot more distance than turning and running behind. Assuming you can rotate the situation in order to do this.
Firstly, for self defence you just match the taller opponent's body weight. Hight does effect things slightly but not as much as weight. For example, if the taller opponent is a hundred and ten kilograms the shorter man just needs to get to a hundred and ten kilograms to defend himself.
Exacly its not about just height its weight in mma theres no height division its weight division but you dont need to be 110 kg to fight a 110kg guy
You mean by getting fat? But doesn't that negate the agility advantage?
@@linkskywalker5417 Fat or muscle it depends on your style tyson fury is the world heavyweight boxing champ and he is fat
When they both have the same volume of muscle. That's a good start for the shorter guy.

Im was about to fight with someone taller than me
He is skinny
I have good body
But he is taller than me like
He was tortures kitten
And i stopped him
So he was mad about it
I didn't let him touch him
But i want to go back and fight him cuz i dont want him to think that im afraid of him
Why i didn't
Cuz im really tired
With being said that's he was with 5-7 of his friends
Just got back from legs and shoulders day
Bruh like i really cant fight at the moment
But this weekend
Im going to beat him up
What was he doing to the cat? I hate animal cruelty. Fk him up for meh.
So what happened? Did you kick his ass?
Yuki Yuki yes i did but we are good now
+Yuki Yuki hmm this doesn't have anything to do with this but, who's that in your pic? XD
Toby Kim i already did
And week ago he apologized for me
Wish I would of seen this before my ex who is 6’3 started beating me.
Unless you're a kung fu master, size is everything
i am 5'2 i've taken down huge opponents in the street using wrist locks.
once you get that lock break it,
the big guys always scream louder.
GeckoZoe that's right :) you got it...lol
a wrist lock? ... 😂
yes that thing the military or police use to disarm people.
I'm 6'3 ... This is all Bull shit... 😂
Yes it's all bullshit that's why your here commenting...lol
When your playing a fighting game and one player keeps using the same move 1:05
Haha so true lmao
😂🤣
running away won't solve problem everytime
Dynamite comes in small packages, a lot of power can be in smaller people.
And when he says ok give me your money and he gets madder for wasting his time when u don't have none
We practice the high-low concept in my self defense class, too. Previous training like Muay Thai where you learn how to throw proper knees and elbows can really be beneficial.
Thanks for sharing!
size does matter
Unfortunatly.
I'm 5'6 and 60kgs wringing wet and have held my own and I've not been in a fight where it's been against someone smaller than me.
They usually have 30+ kg and a foot taller advantage.
I was pretty good with my hands in my youth. Grammar school high school.... my 20's
I'm 46 now and I was starting to feel like maybe I lost it. But watching you two I starting remembering all the bad ass moves I used to defend myself with, offensively.
The key is to Always be on offense even if you have a defensive style art
Height does not matter, skill does.
The killer mindset behind knifes, batons, and guns with the right hands doesn't fear size. Neither do the knife hands, hammer fist, punches, elbows, knees, and legs with aggression, speed, and training focused on killing. Whoever is prepared to fight to the death and kill for survival will succeed. Mindset is everything, and more important than size. Because the right mindset also gets the right training. Fear is the killer of the weak in combat. What happens when you can't run or talk it out? Don't wait for it to happen to realize you weren't ready. It's better to legally carry weapons, have hand to hand training, weapons training, experience, and not need it, then to need it and not have it.
Everyone is taller than me :v thank you for teaching us
hieno juttu laura
Plus you're blonde and pretty.Lots of jealousy around you.Buy a punching bag and get someone to show u how to punch properly.And never EVER tuck your head down,or give the attacker your backside.
It doesn't matter if they're taller than you, you're probably better looking than all of those people.
Eat vitamins
Hamza Khaliq bruh that doesn’t matter either
Thank you I am 4"3 and my bully is around 4"8 and I have been bullied in a local pool and recently got decked in the face thank you, I will be using this advice, but could you make a video on how to dodge attacks or do you have to do that physically?
3:38 Go, and let your imagination soar free!
Thanks this will come in handy as my friend went for a right hook and
I dodged it but I’m not sure how he will react tomorrow but I will use the head but to the nose and jab to the throat as he is a lot bigger than me and I just wanna get on with my GCSEs. Thanks a bunch!!!
You never want to fight someone who is wearing a badass leather jacket.
Damn right!
How can we escape this position: if someone sit on us and put his knees on our arms?
ben irish thx :)
ben irish Do you ever throw someone over youre head with nothing more than youre hips power?! You must be a demigod
guitarrafendersonora it's called physics. You obviously don't know much about fighting. Nick Drossos made a video showing a woman defending herself during that against a fucking grizzly. Join a figh club and then talk about fighting :)
CzekoElite Have you ever done that in a real fight? or with a bigger and havier opponent? Im not calling physics, Im calling empirical knowledge. Not even a video with someone saying that "it could be possible". Im just looking for something real, Im dont want to trust in a "maby", thats all.
guitarrafendersonora Yes, once. I weigh around 75kg, the other guy around 80-82kg.
He "ducked" and grabed my legs with both arms and pulled them to himself which made me fell over backwards, at the same time he sat down on me and i pushed him up instantly with my hips, grabed his hoodie and threw him over my head behind me, during that he actually made a somersault and landed right on his face. Was quite funny.
He was done and this fucking guy became my best mate some time later.^^ Sry 4 bad english.
When I first saw this video I tapped right away because I’m so short ;~;
Same
How tall are you?
Same I'm just 5'2
these videos are very helpful, I am 5'5 and pretty much everyone is bigger than me.
I hope you do some videos on the psychology of self defense as I think it's the most important of all factors, being able to overcome fear and doubt paralysis so you can effectively defend yourself.
I really prefer an opening shot to the eyes or head (head but is fine) followed by knee strikes and ankle stomps (not foot, ankle). On bigger guys knees are just so, right there... and they are right in a smaller person's power line.
I don't get it, in my school, it's the skinny guys the same height as me trying to fight me. I would gladly beat them up, but I fear their mates. They come up to me in groups of around 6 people, all of them abusive and some may be carrying weapons. Just the other day, one of their mates got suspended from our school for having a hammer and two knives in his bag, his school bag...
The tall guy is 6'4 max. lol
Agree. Now way he is 6'7, maybe with stilettos
Justin Kovach ikr
best thing to take from this video: attack hi low, hi low.
now you don't really have to watch it.
What if the taller guy goes straight to hitting
There is no defence to that, sorry. Just take the beating -get it over with quick.
+tory mountain lmaooooooo. bust his head with a bottle.
If you neeeed to fight back, two fingers to the eyes and a bop under the chin. You can find more moves like this if you watch some Three Stooges episodes.
tory mountain he will recover in a couple of days and come for revenge lol. better find a boyfriend to take the beating for you lol.
buy a brass knuckle bro for self-defense. its not expensive 10-20$ good quality
Its very sad that I'm watching this just in case my dad goes nuts
How many push?
Nick* yes
I am only watching this because of the clowns
lol
Eva Tyliakos 7 months and clowns was joke just remember u that u wrote this
Hahaha the " tall " guy is at max 6'4 no way he is 6'7 and he is not big
David Bonkikond He is tall. Infact much taller than average human being.
Minäenkeksinimeä yes sure but he is not 6'7 😉
Minäenkeksinimeä he's like 6'5
@@gotrump4377 He might be 6'7 nick is at his nose, for example from my nose to the top of my head is 8 inches. If his is the same he would be 6'7
This helped me fight my uncle
am 5'1" 127lbs, i have always stood my ground. Last month big bully of a man 5'10" maybe 200lbs very strong, me very weak, called 4 us faggots and fruits, i asked what did you say, he yelled faggot sucker punched me in face, i reflex hit back, knocked him lights out, than choke held him till police arrived...we were face to face, was like matrix, slow motion zoomed in small spot on his chin arm flew, anyone else have knockouts seemed like that ? like matrix slomo
BROCK LENSAR
I

Coming
For
You
BOI !!
Good boy, he's got a rammstein hoodie! Big thumbs up
Thank you my, grandma didnt stand a chance
why inst she waking up??
Being 5'6" between 140 and 160lbs all my life, and always going against taller guys, i will tell u first hand that going low always worked for me Drop low and scoop taller oppenets to the ground. Once they are to the ground its easy money because it will take them longer to get up. Gotta hve some arm strenght though. i suggest pullups
But if I’m talking and say “I’ll give you money ok just wait just wait” , and they say “ok”... do they stop and wait for me to get out my money, if I run won’t they chase me? What if it’s like a group of big guys and I’m like 53 so I can’t attack but I can only run but they might catch up with me and defeat me...
I meant 53 inches 😂
So tomorrow at school I'm getting beaten up by someone much taller than me. So I'm really scared, I decided to watch this....but incase I get whooped real bad, I'm prolly gonna lock myself in my room forever
