Imagine being tired from exercising and then having to fight off an attacker! Proud of this women.
not tired. Exhilarated and want to be buff like her
In her shape you wouldn’t be tired, if anything you would be harder to fight considering you’re in the middle of testing your limits to a specific number. Easier to size someone up that way .. and the adrenaline is a plus
After working out I feel stronger and bigger. That was actually the worst time to for him to do that. Good for her for fighting him off the way she did.
@@lilwashingtonmusic4516 Yeah after a workout, I don’t feel exhausted.
We humans have reserve of strength we are unaware of, in extreme situations it comes to life if you want to survive
When he took her to the ground and then she reversed him into a headlock then whips out the phone to dial 911 was just absolutely impressive. Glad to see she's okay and that he got the knocks he deserves.
Yeah it's good...not to be the macho man here but the guy is kinda weird and somehow wants to accomplish whatever he wants to accomplish without using extreme force. Girls are better off not opening doors for weirdos and/or running away. This shh ain't gonna fly if the guy is hammering down punches ya know.
That was no head lock
@@dco1019 um...the creep was her neighbour/lived in the complex ,she'd seen him around...ya know..if u actually read
@@allg2202 Even more reason to not open the door for him while she's alone. If he lived there, he should have had access to the gym. If not...too bad.
I couldn't get that far without rage induced acoma
Never EVER open a door at a gym for anyone. There is a reason you need a key card to enter.
Always open it for anyone.
She is the definition of being a strong woman. Thank you for showing us women how to fight back. No one should have to go through this. No underage children, woman or man, or grown adult should be forced upon like this haneous act.
Если бы он применил хоть какую-то силу, она бы не справилась. Он же даже не ударил ее ниразу
no so much of smart.... letting stranger in without his for late at night into 24/7 gym stupid for sure and illegal as well
NPC
So proud of her for not giving up the fight!
Bro has L rizz
I think she should’ve ended that ninja with a dumbbell problem solved!!!!!
@@scalz420 no
Interestingly enough the Chicago PD show is kinda telling me how to deal with these kinds of guys. The women officers/dectectives are very physical and can usually take down perps.
Shame she didnt dismember his private parts
I'm proud of her for fighting back. For standing up and saying No, not to me, not today. This is really inspiring for me and I salute her.
Every woman who is attacked is saying "no, not to me". Either by freezing, fleeing or fighting. Men just aren't listening.
This is why hard drugs shouldn't be recreationalized, this guy was clearly on something, and more people out of their minds on drugs may do these dispicable acts again. We should petition to make all drugs other than weed and alchhol totally illgal with severe punishments.
Edit: People stop jumping into conclusions and changing what im saying. I'm not excusing their disgusting behavior. Im just giving a reason why that happens so often in the US. If I didn't study for a test and I failed. If I say I failed because I didn't study, is that an excuse? No. It's a reason why I failed.
@@mohamedhussein2780 What? I'm pretty sure drugs are not the main cause of sexual assaults and harassment. It's the patriarchy and sexualization of women's bodies. It has to do with power. Legalizing drugs brings the supply chain under surveillance and allows for support for addicts. Not to mention the therapeutic benefits to some psychedelics. Harm reduction, my friend, is the way.
But ppl no racist thats ehy this happened should be take off hes head even ealkinh there on the streets no??? This just happened
@@margaretemilia8363 oh no, drugs would never lower the inhibitions of an already violent sexual offender, would they?🙄
This is why going to the gym is a must. It's not always for aesthetics, but you never know when you are going to need that endurance and strength.
If everyone went to the gym the people attacking others would also just be swole AF too.
Well... obviously not everyone can train or even turn up to the gym lol but they can drive or walk past. Good for them :p
No. Not exactly the gym
Just having a taser can do wonders
@@Pazuzu- Yes!!👍
My respect to this young woman. Awesome self defense and awareness skills, you never know when your life values and self-worth will be tested. Glad she got out of it well.
she assaulted him first when she pushed him
she had a chance to run out the door and didnt take it
@@mikelisteral7863moron
@@mikelisteral7863 ok troll
“Awareness skills”? Lolz 😂 you are just as dimly lit as she is. First thing that set my alarm was the fact he was swearing sandals, who works out in sandals? Try again sir!
What self defense? She ran away and called cops 🤣🤣🤷🏻♂️
The fact she NEVER once dropped her phone, whooped his tailbone off, created barriers, threw straight up PUNCHES and still had her phone to call 911!... No words!.... 💯💯💯
Edit: WOW! Thanks for all the likes everyone, so many of the comments are absolutely HILARIOUS!!! 😂🤣😂
That's because those punches were the most half assed punches I've seen. I'm glad she fought back tho and won!
She used that phone to bash him on the nose and eyes. Amazing how he pleads not guilty when there is footage of him.
She should have picked up a 2.5lb, light enough to swing hard enough to maim
The phone was her weapon of defense...she hit his eyes, face and neck with it...plus it was her lifeline, I wouldn't be letting go of it either.
Strong woman but never do that , she is lucky. If you are a woman in the gym alone, never let a man in with you. Never
The nerve to even plead not guilty! What a piece of work. Glad that she is safe and hope he goes away a long time !
He’s probably an entitled incel. 😣
There should be an added penalty if you do that and have absolutely no defense when the whole thing is on camera and you are found guilty
I was thinking the same. He is going to feel not smart when he sees the video evidence.
What women go through.
ha this guy must think that most businesses dont have camera's
She's definitely an inspiration! I'm so glad nothing worse happened to her and I hope she never needs to go through this again.
Seems a bit odd only thing you can find about this is majority footage from one camera displaying the fight. But there is another shot, looks like there was an interaction which all of these media outlets are omitting. I'd wager that there was some low-key flirting and with the "red pill" dating influence the man was propagated with had something to do it. Note the body behaviors the male demonstrated. Popular "red pill" media tells males to move in sluggish ways to "demonstrate alpha male traits" and "assert dominance". There is something more to this and I don't believe it is anyone's best interest to point a loaded gun if there is missing evidence (the footage not made easily available).
If he doesn't have his own key, don't open the door.
That’s true but is that the only thing you could come up with ?
@@amorvrssit’s a sound argument, why let him in if he isn’t supposed to be there
Yeah I bet everything I have if a woman said she wouldn't open the door for a man that she knows and lives around because she is assuming he's an attacker, the same men who are here saying she shouldn't open the door would be calling her every name on the book and saying she lost her mind.
@@julianasilva6946 he did not live there, she had just seen him around and let him in before. So again, why are you letting a stranger in where he isn’t supposed to be?
@@julianasilva6946
If she hadn't opened the door, I would be calling her Intelligent.
I'll never understand why people think they can put their hands on another person without permission.. How does someone become so evil
@Kosmo Kramer people like you are the reason girls don't feel safe
@Kosmo Kramer you are sick.
Because you hot 🔥🥵
Looks like she initiated first contact and quite physically. Too bad we can’t hear the audio because context is important.
Also, she says in her mind she knew she was stronger than him.
Is she delusional? He ragdolled her like she was nothing. Mind you he is not a very big guy to begin with. Women need to drop this mentality they are on the same level as or even stronger than men because it’s delusional as F and it’s going to get them hurt.
@@jjones9822 it would have been enough for him to strike 1 blow to her and no amount of training would have saved her, you're right
This girl is strong physically and mentally, god bless her and anybody having to go through garbage human beings like this.
Heue ruclips.net/video/1ccYHcAvvjg/видео.html
If god was real we wouldn’t go through this BS😂
@@hfhhhfhfhfhdhdhdhd262 Not true. You ever think that maybe it’s the devil who does these things? God is holy.
OTHER WOMEN TO DO THIS WHAT IF HE HAS A KNIFE OR A GUN AND HOLD HIM UNTIL HE CAN'T BREATH AND HAS NO CHOICE BUT TO DO HORRIBLE THING.
Tranquilo. Que el señor había dicho que es actuado porque ya le estaba cayendo mucho hate. Porque la mujer es feminista. Todo estaba planeado.
I hope she inspires someone out there who has a similar situation to never stop fighting no matter what.
I get why everyone is congratulating her but it just makes me so sad that she had to go through this. That we women have to go through this. I cannot even imagine how scared she was. Physically she's obviously okay, but I hope that she can get over that mentally as well, because I would definitely be having some PTSD. To all the girlies out there, I pray that you're safe. Please watch out for yourself, and if this happens to you, scream and fight with all your might.
they should make separate gyms for men and women
This is part of the joys of diversity. We're constantly being told that its a 'strength' well this is what its brought to every single nation that chooses to go down that route in a significant way.
Ban Yoga Pants
@@user-ie5tg5fs3m that wont stop them. they will just go over into woman spaces, its almost like you have no idea what its like to be a woman. they made separate train cars for men and woman in japan and girls still get groped and stalked.
@@sexoffendertrumpexactly
What's even scarier is even if she hadn't let him in that creep would have been outside waiting for her to leave. At least this was recorded
I doubt it. Most people are in the gym for at least an hour. If criminals had patients they would just get a legal job or hire a prostitute
@@seansimmons73 Not true at all. I had a creep follow me to school when I was still a minor and he was waiting for me to be done multiple hours later. Just because you’re lucky enough not to have an experience like that, doesn’t mean that it doesn’t happen. He would have most certainly waited. You think those creeps have anything better to do? Gross.
@@seansimmons73 huh.. criminals follow their victims, he would’ve followed her
Yeah I thought she shouldn't have let him in (repeatedly), she'd let him in before. Then I also thought she was better fighting him off inside than out, better offensively to see him approaching. Either way I truly hope he doesn't return to the free community, if so I hope it's minus a limb, since you don't know what to do with your hands and legs you don't need two of each.
@@seansimmons73 male moment ☕️
This happened to me at my store in 2016. I was held at gunpoint. I had to fight for my life for over 5 mins until someone came to help. It was the longest 5 mins ever. This woman is so brave. I pray she stays mentally strong.
You 💝

Yep. She hurt him, smashing the corner of her phone into his face. What a woman!
😕 that sicko was ready to get busy right there on the gym floor. Smh
@@Bert_de_Wit You wouldn’t do the same if you were a woman or just a person in that situation?
To everyone (men and women): if you go to a gym that doesn't have staff at certain times, do NOT let anyone in at all. I don't care if they're your friends.. don't do it. People who are authorized to get into a private gym should bring their key/access card. If they don't have it with them, they can go back and get it.
Glad you spoke up , alone at 10pm I am not buzzing anybody in.
Exactly!
Her buzzing him in might have saved her life in this instance. He could have been waiting for her to come out and she wouldn't have been aware and prepared for an attack. It's a reminder to not buzz anyone in and also have your phone ready to dial 911 when you leave a place at night.

This man is scum. Good on her for having the courage and determination to fight him off and get away.
Yeah typical 🙋🏿♂️ behavior
I've got a young daughter and wife and it absolutely disgusts me that something like this could happen to them. My wife doesn't listen to music or podcasts when she goes for a walk so that she can stay aware of her surroundings, and it makes me so mad that she has to do that as a precaution because of perverts like this
There is a few billion people on this planet.
Some are bad apples.
Best to know your neighborhood and the ones living in it. Today most do not even know who lives next to them.

Her fighting back and being aware of her surroundings really saved her life. I’m happy that she was able to fight him off and right after this video I sent it to my sisters and plan on sending it to many more females I know.
I just hope that they don't have that dumb mindset
What saved her is he gave up.
The dude was wearing pool sandals. Not very aware.
If she was truly aware of her surroundings, then she would used the barbels right behind her as a club.
@@BASEDKAISER Wouldn't that be murder? And assault
He had the nerve to plead not guilty too.

I've never been assaulted like this, but the fact that this could just happen to you for no reason, especially if you're a woman, has me almost in tears
What? Violent crime disproportionately happens to men
@@swbrl2843 Yeah but women are weaker than men so more vulnerable.
@@swbrl2843 we knows you are disappointed she defended herself, your hate for women is palpable. Seek help before you hurt someone.
@@swbrl2843 Are you that ignorante? The person above is literally talking about the R word.

So proud of her. She reacted appropriately. Another lesson to learn is to not open the door for someone who does not have access and looks suspicious.
Yes. Like who wears those slip on shoes to the gym? Suspicious indeed.
Looks suspicious? Sounds racist to me.
Being helpful can get you killed. What I don't understand is why she didn't grab a weight and bash his head in.
This is a crazy post. Almost like something an AI would write. How many people have keys to their gymns? How are we supposed to get inside if the people who work there does not let us in? Next thing know, bodegas, libraries, restaurants, taxis, would not let their customers in unless the customers already have their own keys.
@@danielch6662 it’s an apartment gym dude. Everyone has a key that lets them in. No outsiders.
Hats off to you Girl
She is making me want to do strength training. I’m glad she’s okay.
Do it!
Do it. Why not?
As a father, please do it.
Do a self defense class with strength training as an add on. Just remember,the heel of your hand upward to the nose of an attacker breaks the nose. And gorilla stomping the top of the foot breaks the foot. Fight to stay alive,freeze and die. Stay safe. And if you can,get some fire arms training,purchase a gun and carry. Don't ever be afraid to save your own life.

@@azizjacko3222 is getting hard to
differentiate fake stuffs from real but I don’t think is staged …so sad story anyway because it represents the real
life anyway
Look at her knowing right away to push him off the second he reached for her. Women including myself have been raised to think that they need to be polite over protect themselves and this woman obviously has things straight! You are awesome!
It should always be safety over politeness. You can't be polite if you're dead.
Thirst games are dangerous. Sometimes the hunter becomes the hunted.
Politeness is earned. If someone doesn't put in the work to earn it you owe them nothing.
Girls (women) are NOT raised to be polite. That is a cope-out. Children are raised to be polite adults in polite situations. Women twist that into being nice because they are just afraid of being judged. Nice is the weakest thing that a person can be. Nice is what allows bad people of all levels to take advantage of good people.
You never gone to the gym at night tho
I can imagine her feelings, the same thing happened to me twice, when I was 13 and 25 years old, in 2 different countries. It´s an experience you never forget.
girl hush, u still out her running in mens pockets for chump change

Well done,i am so proud of her,she fight back so good😁🫶
Watching her put him in a chokehold while she unlocked her phone to call 911 cracked me up 😂😂 he wasn’t going no where! You go girl!!
Wow it happened to me as a man i was on a hike i and i thought that man training throwing punches on the air was a normal man but The next thing you know he's like what did you say? I saw a bigger guy size and hight And he aproched me and he hit me with punches on my rib he wanted to choke me. Before he assaulted me i felt so tired, and he took advantage of me also my defense was so low . But I said Lord please help me. I thank God he gave me strength to free my self. But he hurt my ribs really bad. Went to the hospital but i thank God I'm okay now. She did good when she felt strong at that moment it's key for self defense.
Feels a little staged don’t you think?
@@stresslessmailing4758 um what? Sounds like you shouldn’t have mouthed off to the guy or else its a made up sorry for attention(that’s my bet)….
@@swisha317 No no attention at all. Just be aware of people if you go on a hike, sometimes they look normal people like she thought, when she opened the door for him.
That just shows how weak he has and really wasn’t doing anything, no way she could do that to a man if he really had intent on hitting her.
No one should go through this but good thing she was someone who was able to fight back and at least he was exposed . So sick . Glad she is ok physically, hope mentally she will be ok too !
Maybe it's shock, but I feel like she was even composed during the interview. I'd literally be traumatized. She's such a strong woman.
@losangeles1618 Who says you'll never experience something similar just because you're a man? You must be crazy if you think only women get attacked.

You can say the world we live in is "sad" and keep crying about it but its going to change nothing. Take a note from this woman in the video and learn to be less of a coward.
She's a Tough Lady. That stooge looked Drugged Up or Mentally,which makes her very tough to defend herself so well. Not all ladies are push overs. Brave Lady.🤼♀️🏋️♀️👍
@@therealno0k Well said. Instead of crying and complaining about it, we should be the change we wanna see.
It was obviously staged!!! Maybe a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym is opening nearby or maybe it's pushed back for that Netflix series I don't know... but, She failed to exit the gym or at the very least, allow the fight to occur at the door so, others could witness and render help. So, fake!!! 👎🏽
Yall need a serious reality check claiming anyone attacked is a coward for not being able to resist. She should have been safe anywhere. And I can not believe this needs to be actually said. Being the change you want to see means teaching men to respect women. Because this happens everywhere.
Is it a really good idea to recommend this "self-defense" to just any woman?
This is rather one of the rare cases where the woman actually has better body fitness than the offending male, and even than only reason she got out unhurt is because the offender never actually tried to hurt her. Imagine how this had to be turned out if he go for attacking her immediately instead of keep insisting hump his lower parts when she resisted.
And I think I saw NYPD actually don't recommend self-defense of victim because it often result in worse outcome due to making offender angrier
You go girl!!!! I’m so sorry she had to experience that. But yea, don’t mess with tough girls!! 💯💯💯

One more lesson: Don't let people in. If they belong, they have their own tag or key, they will not need to be let in. You might think you're doing something nice, but you have to realise that you are not responsible for them bringing their own way to get in.
You might just be opening the door for someone who shouldn't be there.
Good on you, Florida woman! Very impressive and I'm proud of you for fighting back!
Exactly and if they really do live in your complex & just forgot their key fob, it would take just a few minutes to walk back home & get it. I had a criminal justice professor that used to be a homicide detective. He told us one of the biggest mistakes you can make is worrying about hurting someone’s feelings ( in a situation like this) . That was how most women became victims, they opened the door or walked over to a car to answer a question ( trick to get you by the car so they can grab or push you in it) he had some really scary stories.
Especially if you’re alone in that place!
i mean i agree with you but in this case it made sense to let him in coz it was a public gym and she had seen him before
True. Hopefully she learned.
I agree
Great job❤
Glad you're alright
Don't know her, but I am so very proud of her!!! She fought him off like a champ!!! She's absolutely earned that badass title!! Glad she's doing good and hoping that the trauma won't stop her from anything. She's a great example to all women.
Thankfully this piece of trash didnt get violent or this wouldve been so much worse 😟
Black Lives Matter💪💪💪
White women dream of black men. What is the problem?
@@wilsonball7171dude what?
@@wilsonball7171 stay off the crack she is Mexican race by the way but anyway you sound like you high on something
@Wilson Ball I dream of my husband and hi s arabic. My ex boyfriend is Asain. II
She fought back perfectly. This is why every little girl should start self-defense classes at a young age and keep on training. Yes, ballet, dance, soccer, gymnastics...are all nice, but self defense can save their lives.
Men and Women should train in Jiu Jitsu! - Finest grappling Martial Art style on this planet!! Along with striking techniques of course which are just as vital.
Perfectly? She got mounted at one point
@@AI_Taylor exactly...because he could still see.
@@harrisa6235 except the one in the video or the we are all f up
Or.maybe girls should be taught not to wear tight sweats that show off their butt to attract attention and cause arousal cuz some people dont have self control. If girls have no self respect others won't respect them either and will treat them like the piece of meat they are posing as.
What's scary is how calm he is
Why would you open the door?!
I'm grateful she was able to fight back and make it out of the gym safely. I'm sorry she had to experience that you just never know what a person will try to do to you these days.
Lol these days..🙄 op def seems to prefer the times where these things happened but no one was aware of it & no justice served
the reason this is newsworthy is because it's uncommon in modern society (or at least it should be). we are safer than we have ever been in history (which is not to say we are ever 100% safe). and that does not discount the times where people do violate or attempt to violate others. there was a time when this was all the time with impunity. and there are places in the world today where that is still the case, sad to say
Or in the past. It’s better now than in the past
Seems fake. He didn't even try to hit her. She might have manipulated and paid this innocent black man just to become famous in one night. Exactly like Jussie Smollett
I hope the attacker went to prison
As a men to see this makes me sick and proud of her!! Glad to see her in good health and doing the right thing. Much love.
man*. Sorry I had to be the grammar police.
Nah, we know that as a moid you wish he had succeeded.
@@mariposa00 wtf is a moid? Get off the internet
why do you say as a man. Men get attacked too. Tf
@@mariposa00 lmao
Please show us the court case
The importance of knowing self defense
What a horrifying experience! This young lady reacted both physically and mentally strong.
I'm really glad she acted in such a way and she walked away mostly unscathed, but let's not pretend she overpowered him, even being physically strong. For most women out there, and even this young lady, being physically strong against the vast majority of male attackers isn't going to be a "win" for you. Please don't rely on that as your one out.
Seems fake. She might have manipulated and paid this innocent black man. just to get famous Exactly like Jussie Smollett
unlucky , if it was any man that wasnt on drugs or drunk or wasnt weak like him , they would be able to r*pe her , its unlucky that she didnt get r**ped though..
@@teeemm9456correct she's very lucky because that guy was an unarmed average sized amateur/a wannabe not a big & heavy one, OR.... if he was packing any melee weapon/firearm or had his gang watching his back, she was a goner MAY GOD BLESS HER.☝️🙏😇
@@majornukehazard1989 Not to mention he wasn't overly violent in the punch-face-in way. She got really lucky and I'm glad she survived this.
“ I knew I was Stronger than him”
That young woman is so strong and she knows it! ❤️
Not only does she have the physical strength, she’s got a strong mind! I have so much respect for her! And they should lock up that POS til he rots.
Shes lucky the dude dont have a knife
If she knew she was stronger then why run?
@@Johndoe-gf7eu most women think they are stronger than men but the reality is so far from that thinking.
I believe she said I knew I wasn’t stronger than him but she could still fight him!
She is an exception. She didn't scream like "OMG OMG but she took over the situation" I respect women who like this
Golden girl ❤
It's truly remarkable how you were able to defend yourself against an attacker after an intense workout. Your courage and strength are truly admirable. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
Called adrenaline she felt like hulk
She can lift more then he weighs😂 he was a dummy for trying her like that 🦾
The human adrenaline rush can do powerful things
If he were an entertainer the outcome of her fighting back would be different
What an inspiration! This guy's a danger to society he should be locked up!!
It's terrifying to see how much strength, determination and skills a woman needs to escape in a situation like this. I'd never be able to do that, but really impressed she did.
It's terrifying to realize that being healthy and exercising increases your chance.of fighting off an attacker?
@@REAPER3fitty well no, but you do need a lot of muscle.
@@idktbh.2421 Well, a little yes but that's guaranteed if you work out regularly. That's all you need to push him away and run which is what she did here. That and and not freezing due to shock. I bet most women can do what she did if they had an active lifestyle.
@@REAPER3fitty no. It's the fact she's a woman, which aren't as physically strong as men on average. That's why it's impressive. Her adrenaline saved her
@@REAPER3fitty fat people give a mean punch and harder to carry, therefore abduct. Being fat is like being chained to a dumbbell 24/7
If some one doesnt have acces to a gym it means he is not suppose to be there
This is why I always carry a weapon when I workout or run. If you get close, you are leaving maimed. I am going for all the soft spots with a very sharp blade.
Smart person.
Good for her! Working out, being so strong, and thinking so quickly helped her to escape.
STRONGE? haha.. no way..
@@totti8034 by any chance, are you a fan of Andrew Tate?
@@imsohandsome Who is Andrew Tate?
@@imsohandsome Idk who andrew tate is either but women are weaker than men and always will be, it's not even an opinion, it's biologically confirmed
I’m a be honest I think he wanted the phone
I never want to feel that fear she felt at that moment. I thank God she is okay.
I cannot even imagine..
We all know why that man had her on the ground and thank GOD she had the strength to fight through it. I’m strong but I’m a petite woman and it makes me feel extra vulnerable. That is horrifying. I try to make up for my size with being super aware of my surroundings.
She is so awesome, she is everyone's hero, Best believe my teen daughter has seen this... key thing "If some stranger is approaching you, gets close enough for you to hit them, you better hit them 1st"
So happy she’s okay and that she was a fighter. That was such a scary situation.
Hello Susana how are you doing today
I’m sure it Was a traumatic experience but not only Is she strong physically she seems strong mentally and quick thinking, they go together. You go girl!
And this is why places should always have an employee in place/security guard etc to prevent this from happening. Glad she was able to fight him off.
Thankyou lord for giving her strength
Prayers to her! So sorry this happened. It’s so disgusting and frightening. Ladies please stay safe!
Yes I agree but NEVER OPEN the door for anyone that’s at a GYM door. The must have their key for access to get in if they don’t .. just don’t open the door.
Yeah, men are evil, babies are unnecesary burden! Wear that yoga pants that we aren't allowed to touch! 🤣
Poor Guy Just want good moment
@@user-fr2zt5xd3u He wanted to mash his bushy beard onto her bushy cave😂
@Takezo Shinmen You stop. Comments like yours are no better than "all lives matter."
As a black man, I'm sad to see this happen. Guys like this cause people to feel uncomfortable around blacks when they're alone. 😥
Yeah brutha we gonna get some heat for this one😂. Even though we didn't do it, all it takes is 1
To be fair, I don't feel comfortable being around unknown men (white or not) when I'm alone.
I'm sad when I think of all the victims who could have benefited from this survival tactic.
@@eleventhhour5270damn bro, why you do us like that?
Only if you're racist 😂
Women’s only gyms are the way to go 💪
Brave 💪
Scary part when he threw her down, I don't care what anyone says, his intentions were crystal clear. Scary stuff. Glad she wasn't abused, how a moment can change one's life.
As a future husband it pains me to think this is the world we live in. I hope we can be better as a society and leave people alone regardless of gender
It’s not the world we live in, it’s just Florida
What period would be better for you?

Please tell me witch one
Philip, please forgive the comment against you, as you are so very right. We have such a long way to go.
@@holyexperience1976shut up subhuman, maybe you have a long way to go but we're not all like you.
@Alex Rodriguez Well women exposing themselves constantly with IG, onlyfans etc then yearning for equal rights and not wanting to be sexualized abusively and harmed is a pretty comical one.
Good job, young lady. I'm glad you escaped.
Sorry for what happened to her, but no she was not stronger than him and did not put him in a shock hold.
one of the reasons could be bad defense technique
Wow this woman is incredible and inspiring to us women and men to make sure we are aware of our surroundings and taking a few self defense classes also that can only help. Glad she’s okay!
🤣
And don't open the door for homeless looking black dudes.
Obviously she wasn't aware of her surroundings.if she were she would never had opened that door.
@@diamondsparkle9967 If she wasn't aware of her surroundings, I wonder how she knew someone was at the door?? 🧐 Critical thinking has left the chat lol, but srsly that is an example of being aware of your surroundings 🤣🤣
@@brettness1416 comprehension has definitely left the chat as well,lol
Must have been a scary experience but she stood up and fought well.. great job 👍🏻
Must have been a scary experience?
That man was celebrating black history month 👏🏾👏🏾
