Knife Defense Social Experiment

- This video is part one of a social experiment we are conducting. The purpose of this experiment is to test people's ability to defend themselves against a knife. Subscribe to my channel : / @nickdrossos .
We want to see how people react defensively to a knife attack. Along the way, we will be giving you some tips on how to enhance your survival against a knife attack. You will learn how to trap, strike, counter attack and escape from such a dangerous situation.
Yanni was the first person to volunteer in our social experiment. He wanted to see how he could use self defense to help him out in a knife attack. Taking into account the first scenario of this video, we see that Yanni's opponent has mounted him. How can you incapacitate someone if he has mounted you?
A simple way would be to trap the knife he's holding in his hand on the ground, and to perform a buck and roll. By doing so, your opponent loses his balance, and this gives you the chance to bring him down, and to take advantage of the situation. Afterwards, you can continue by attacking him yourself.
One possibility, as we see in the video, is by head butting your opponent or even palm striking his face. You can go as far as eye-gouging him. Do whatever it takes to survive. You could even add more pressure on your attack by putting more of your body weight on him, for example, by putting more pressure on the place where you've incapacitated him.
Yanni asked an excellent question afterwards: What if my opponent and I are standing up? What do you do in this case scenario? You think strategically.
If he starts advancing towards you, your arms should come up to protect your centerline. You must maintain a passive and natural stance when holding your arms up, so you won't agitate your opponent even more. The element of surprise can truly come to be an advantage for you when defending yourself in this scenario. When he tries to strike at you with a knife, you can use your legs to strike him low while covering your upper body with your arms. Follow up with high strikes (such as palm strikes) and focus on trapping the knife at the same time.
If he continues trying to stab you, you have to be smart about what your next move will be. In the end, it's all a matter of how fast you can go, since speed is really important, and how willing you are to survive when you're being attacked.
Remember that finishing the threat and escaping from this predicament should be the only thing of importance.

"You already died about a 100 times" lol I'm dead
Shanjida Choudhury XD I was laughing so hard.
Which is normal 🤣🤣
He said after that "which is normal"
Oh 😂😂😂 i just wrote this and then saw your comment
Kimsea Chea same
That kid might be wearing a Harvard sweatshirt, but he got a real education on this day. Cool video.
🤣🤣🤣👍👍
I really like these social experiment videos. I really think that more people should learn to defend themselves. Its crazy when you think about all the people who don't know how vulnerable they really are. I am not a built guy but I still practice techniques and drills. Allot of people don't realize that even just watching a video and practicing the technique with a friend can help. Because if you retain that knowledge it is there in case you need it. Eitherway kudos on the videos and I just subscribed.
if you're laying down on the ground and somebody randomly mounts you with a knife and hes 220lbs pure muscle you need to rethink your decisions in life and how you got to that point
+adrenaline not really, if you get involved in a fight he couldve had the knife concealed, pushed you over then mounted you with the knife drawn.
+SuperHarrHarr I tried to figure out all the scenarios where that could happen. Pretty much every one can be avoided if you don't go off on your own.
OhioGentleman so your tip is, don't leave the house if you're alone
SuperHarrHarr No, more like "don't walk down dark alleys alone" or "Don't take a piss in a gas station in the middle of nowhere."
OhioGentleman then you haven't figured out "all the scenarios" this kind of thing can happen anywhere, yes they have to be really bloody stupid to do it in public places but then they are carrying a knife around so they're probably mentally handicapped anyway. there are places in my town that i love going alone like the park simply due to scenery etc and it's almost always empty; things like this video are good to know even for the very slim chance of something happening.
damn i dont think id be able to think straight if that dude was straddlin me like that lmao
😨
That dude was huge, but even he couldn't find a way to land a hit on you when you told him to try. Such skill. Thanks for all the self defense techniques!
Yes, need to trap the leg on the same side as the knife is on. GJJ Trap and Roll. Good video!
That series of the social experiment are really interesting! Btw Vassil has a very nice "БЪЛГАРИЯ" tattoo on his back ;)
the good part is the bucking and flipping right on top of the attacker move. nice.
It's just crazy. This hot, *hot*, hot one is implied to "attack" you, but then they switch to this burly dude!
Can I ask the hot one to defend me? ;-)
At 4:41 big dude got slapped 😂
Thank you for your work and my learn to. Saving people and learn defense is important in that bad times. Greetings from far away Poland.
Wow Nice.. Loving this new video!! Great work Nick.
Outstanding, Nick as always. Do some of this in Aikido. Would consider it an honour if you where able to come to the UK and do this experiment, as knife crime is quite common over here bro. Stay safe man, all the best to you and your students.
I had thought about this for years (70/80s/90s) distraction is a good thing e.g. when u see the knife, look over his shoulder and say something like Bob/Robert/John/Officer/Dont shoot, worked to some degree with a kick in the nuts as the follow up.
I started dead laughing when he actually hit the guy forealzee
Hello Nick. My cousin died in Montreal under the knife attack of a madman
Once you manage to mount him and block the arm with the knife you could also go for an americana after headbutting him. left arm blocking his wrist,right arm under his grabbing yours and just raise his elbow. if he doesn't tap you gonna brake his shoulder. Soft control can be used in this type of situations but it takes way more time to get good at it. Nice video btw :)
I LOVE your videos !! I wish I could take classes with you!! :/
Nice! Lucky you found a fellow Greek. Question, is this technique related to krav maga?
Greetings from the homecountry.
good job niko
mpravo
Cool channel that's it.. hope you could teach me a little trick like that someday... thank you so much for caring other ppl. you guys awesome! :)
Great video. Great way to teach people.
Awesome👏👏
It is interesting to see how many people really don't know what to do or what they would do. I like this, but I would like to see how to keep from getting on the ground under the knife. I was taught how to use a knife but never taught how to defend against one.
Brilliant..!!
Amazing videos very helpfull and reasuring that it is possible to b able to defend urself. What if its a gun pointing at ur face treat it same as i knife or is ther anything diffetent you should do love youre videos
Γειά σου ρε Νίκο!...και Βασίλη
Great work as always.
thank you for these videos. can you do one on what do do when there is a gun involved?
I have many gun videos.
your vision is entirely different and its showing how things in reality
3:40 there is a mini Tarzan in the background. XD
Good video man!
You need to know this considering in the UK people get stabbed a lot where i live, I weigh 252 pounds 6"3 and can hit hard if i need to act out in defending myself.
Don't know whether that was sarcastic or not.
I Love Martial Arts!
one someone come to you suddenly everything is completely different
what if the guy on top of you is a really big and heavy guy and you can't topple him over?
Rhank you a lot it helped me
Plot twist: This is how thieves rob their victims now, they use real knives and use this tutorial scenario to allow the victim to be stabbed
i love that person.You live in greece? i have never see u
Learn Jiujitso, be a beast...
What if you are in a wheelchair you got any self defense combat moves for that ? or screaming like a distressed girl the only option
Afro samurai Watch Master Wong. He actually has a video on that I think. :D
Afro samurai yap youre fucked bud sorry
Nice vids
at 5:40 I'm worried that my wrists we get slit if I try that.
Nice
What is that band on Vicilins arm?
OMG your at mont royal in Montreal OMFG
great videos. keep going and i think its really important aswell.
Thanks!
the master himself *scream*
How do you train for this?
Did someone break your ribs with a knife?!
IM GREEK TOO!!!!!!!!!
So... If you're not the most fit person in the world (i weigh about 220lb and I'm 6,2)... can I just sit on the hand with the hand with the knife and be done with it?
WalkingOnSunshineMan
You bet! Its the only place you can find us we hide a lot.
Българи има ли ? :D
aww dang that guy does 100 times
Be safe - practice this with carrots.
0:21 unicycle....
When you trap his knife he have second hand and he can fight you.
Hash slinging slasher😂
Goodtimes.

Laurel
Man, this big dude is fukin badass looking like an russian demitri
0:11 That Unicycle doe..
Wow , that leg movement was beautiful..
"See how he's screaming??"
Ahahaha, I'm dying laughing.

Just a "gulub" like a fish 😂😂
why does it always start with the guy being on the ground. it's usually always in a stand up stance
worst situation, unless u have very very high skilled takedown defense, it wont take much to take you down
Tim Schaffer A guy with a knife won't take a guy down, he will viciously attempt to stab you.
***** Stupid cameraman & passengers. Anyways, in the video it started as a fight not a knife fight. I'm not saying this doesn't happen what i'm saying is if someone wants to stab you or rob you with a knife or whatever, theyre not going to take you down first. Theyre going to draw out their knife and advance towards you. A knife fight in almost all cases is standing.
Damian Blue Might start on the feet most people run straight backwards in facing a knife attacker though correct? I've seen sober people fall over a curb walking forward let alone backwards away from a knife attacker,
TBH this Mr Drossos fella gives a lot of really good advice.
Having some one land on top of me getting in a fight is the reason i started Jiu-Jitsu if you really want to feel safe get a blue belt at least :)
I like this guys philosphies "never knowing after the first move" is perfect but the more you train the more options you will have to go to, which I'm sure NickDrossos will tell you the same
Much love to the personal trainers/martial arts guys ;)
aderfe ellhnas
Thank you for your excellent advice and ideas! Highly realistic, and much more in-depth than my countries military CQB system. It's good to see somebody with expertise promoting self-defense to citizens, who otherwise would be completely vulnerable.
5:41 i feel sorry for him ^^
ask for more money , lol .
***** Well, but what a shitty helmet. I thought he wore it so he can get hit.
RadioactiveSand it is called vibration
That guy with the knife is Russian or Bulgarian, the tattoo on his back starts with the letter "Б" .
Няма как да се обърка физиономията - тоз е от наще.
He's gonna go to his friends and say 'I was on RUclips guys!'😂
This is so cool and really helpful great job
You look like a good fighter man. thanks for your hard work, it's very honorable to teach self defense.
Aw that guy is a real cutie tbh 😍😍
really?
or are you horny for some reason right now lol
shes talking about the buff dude lmfao
Oh damn! That's one of the few problems with them helmets, sometimes if you tip the edge of them hard enough it'll twist your neck right up
Just one thing, I think your defence position should be different when you're in a knife fight. Your arms should be turned so that you only expose the backside. If you expose your vains and palms and if the attacker slices you then, the results are going to be worse.
4:45 the guy did'nt even use his hips the "attacker" just kinda slowly rolled to the side lol
Yo what up man look I been getting pick on a lot in school man I have been watching and truly understand the meaning of. Ur defence I would to k if u could treat how to defend myself better if u wanna contact my twitter it. Is Dante m. Johnson jr. @djakilla113 but if face book is easier then add me at Terrance Horne
the big guy reminds my of sabor tooth from x-men
***** What's the worst injury you ever suffered while training?
***** Better broken ribs during training than broken ribs during a fight :) Love your videos mate
Thats effective training, not the "A,B,C" pattern that most of people learn
+7Flafleur poke in the eye with a finger, just freaking every time it just burns
yeah, I imagine
“You died about 100 times witch is normal”
Me:wait what?
You talk about strikes to the head which are good but i think eye pokes would work better especially if the attacker is much larger or is someone who can take a few shots to the head. A hundred pound woman can eye poke successfully but a strike from her might not do much. Bruce Lee was a big fan of eye pokes.
true. If you are defending your life always attempt to strike soft with hard ^__^
a mindset of being ready to harm or even kill the attacker helps too :P
Elbow to the temple can potentially knock a person out irrespective of the size ...
Besides poking the eye needs good finger strength, because the defender might injure the finger thereby disarming a major weapon ....
2:57 😂😂omg did he just fly the knife over to his other hand and stab again while laughing??
It's really admirable that you're doing this for random people!
self defense should be taught in school
"You died about 100 times" lmao
*Shows the knife*
:O
"It's rubber"
\o/
Yes he is bulgerian. His name is Vasil-Васил
your videos are really cool and you seem to have tons of experience
i would totally join your classes if you were in Greece
Greetings from Thessaloniki
Wow, I haven't seen Velcro shoes in awhile. Is that still common in Canada? :)
"Ow" see how he's screaming 💀
I love these videos. Even though I have never used the techniques in these videos, I find it so useful to know them. I hate that I feel like I might need them though. This world needs to sort its crap out really.
Good stuff!, but at the same time without practiced repetition and a basic expectation of "THIS COULD HAPPEN" most people are 100% unaware and 100% EXPECTING! That's why I say this is good stuff because it makes the viewer aware that these things happen. I don't openly discus what training I have had, but one thing that I think needs to be mentioned is RISK and REWARD!
The Risk is minimal (you might get cut and for sure your gonna get a scrape or something) BUT
The Reward ( you will live to see another day!)
Coitado do Vessil,sempre se ferra ksksskks
"You died about 100 times😂😂"
I would suggest that maybe, as a default, you can talk to thim and order to drop the knife, if you have some skill. Just some psychological effect on him. Or perhaps that could make him even deadlier xd
Oh wtf you live in Montreal? You might be the 3rd or second biggest Montreal RUclips. If you don't mind, we have a Facebook group called Montreal RUclipsrs where we plan Montreal RUclips gatherings, my friend hosts a show on bell called Montreal urban race. You should check it out :)
На гърба на нацепения пич България ли пише? 😂😃 On the back of the muscular dude, there is a tattoo of Bulgaria?
Good video..
The only problem i see is that this kind of sweep wont work against a much heavier guy, well atleast not if youre not going to trap the leg, i dont know that much but i think this is a big weakness in your series, youre always showing that sweep but its not as effective as it could be with a leg trap...
Keep that in mind.. :)
PS: No hate, just a little correction. .:)(Love ur other videos, just not the biggest fan of this series)
greetings
Hey,@Nick Drossos does the guy with the black singlet happen to be a bulgarian, because I think i see България, tattooed on his back.
5:40 big guy ain't as tough as he looks
This social experiment is saying that most of the people never really thought about being attack or something ,,,,,, the thing you're doing is adorable 👏
