[rubik12]

What to do?

Look this clip, what i can do on this position?

liveleak(.)com/view?i=fd1_1326­212422

[TheSikiciCocuk]

The Chechens know best how to handle a knife, I promise!

[arkadi100]

@TheSikiciCocuk :)

[raccool2]

If you look at the knife you are going to become adrenalised......ummmm I think you might become adrenalised at the point someone is trying to kill you without the need to have a good look at the blade! And when you are training for a knife attack you MUST BE ADRENALISED IN TRAINING

[GlasgowBlueBear1690]

So this guys answer to defending a knife attack is to use figure 4 arm locks? lol

Its actually scary that he's teaching this crap and students are believing it.

If someone wants to stab you they will most likely grab you with their free hand first to restrict your movement and then start slashing and stabbing you, at that point any technique that this guy has shown is out the window, YOU WILL BECOME A VICTIM!

[m4ciekw]

@GlasgowBlueBear1690 true

[arkadi100]

@GlasgowBlueBear1690 If one wants to stab, they would just stab without any fancy moves. The knife would be held in a different way ie parallel, as opposed to perpendicular, to the ribs, the handle should be firmly pointed to the lower part of the palm, as otherwise hand may slide on the blade. Also, its a good idea to stipe knfe to the wrist. This is bare minimum.

[eingraham81]

"If your fingerprints are on the knife, it's murder"...what a fucking idiot.  I agree in not doing disarms because then the case can be made the threat was over(which has happened). But if you take a life in self defense, it's self defense; doesn't really matter how you do it. This guy needs to do everyone a favor and take his videos down.

[arkadi100]

Also :) To those who understands, have a look at how the attacker is holding the knife :)

[arkadi100]

Also, what if the blade is tied up to the wrist? And always look at the armed hand.

[arkadi100]

Just want to give a credit to this video, but it's the only one, and one have to be well trained to do this. What he does well, he is diverting the armed hand by slapping it aside. But you can only do it from the top. Always from the top. But then again, always RUN AWAY. Only well trained person can do this.

[danielskipp1]

Yeah, great "combat" tactic: PLAN to leave the knife in the attacker's hand. Got too bored to finish watching this.

[Shogunswe]

this sucked... really!

[ryan31394]

...much closer to their core muscles so they have a huge advantage over you. If anything it would be better to move to the side attempt to control the knife arm as much a possible while delivering vital blows to key areas of the body with the free hand. (i.e. trachea, face, ribs, etc) This will at least cause them to be distracted from the knife arm for long enough to do something else if the blows do not incapacitate them.

[ryan31394]

Yes, because they're totally not going to resist. The problem with most techniques such as this is that people don't stab at someone and then let their arm go limp. They're going to resist especially if you start grabbing their arm, and guess who has more leverage? Their arms are muc

[slickhbb1]

interesting but i think he should of spent more time on the up slash cause that thrust looks more difficult to block than the others

[mykp3t3]

I died doing this once :P

[Timi116]

everything he shows is very inpossible to do in real action

[gragonith13]

How bout break the balls?



[hussien2632]

GOOD JOB MAN YOUR RIGHT WE DO NEAD TO FIGHT BACK HERD NOT LIKE ALL THE OUTHR VIDEOS I SEW THIS IS GOOD GRAD A STUFF I GOT IT NO FINGIR PRINTS AND DONT BE A VECTEM THET IS THE BEST VIDEO ON YOU TUBE

[nol50000]

Adrenaline makes it harder to fight, I don't completely agree with that my friend, My mom is a far better combat trainer then you'll ever be.

[arkadi100]

"dont focus on the knife" - omg

[arkadi100]

I don't care who those guys are, but the best and only defense against knife attack, unless u have one or any other weapon, is to RUN AWAY. What makes me sick about those "experts" that they let people to believe that one can engage someone with knife with bare hands. NEVER ATTEMPT TO DO THIS. DEADLY.

[m4ciekw]

@arkadi100 You leave your girlfriend behind? She's not your wife yet, for God's sake!

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw No, better to die. It's going to be of much help to your girlfriend. :) PS It appears that many people have no idea what ti's like to face the knife.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw It's not the point. Chances of surviving when the attaker has a knife and u dont r next to none. All this videos make people to believe that they can engage a knife with bare hands. In 99.9 % this would cause deadly outcome to the one without the knife.

[m4ciekw]

@arkadi100 If you are able to run, then attacker screw up! In most cases when the knife involved you can't even see it, but if you do, it is always better to train some moves. It will increase your chances for survival.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw As I said, blade needs space.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw Well, you just said " In most cases when the knife involved you can't even see it" followed by "it is always better to train some moves".... Is this possible? Also, if its assumed that one could be trained to do so, how many users here are trained? Particulary, given the level of training they might get from these vidios :)

[m4ciekw]

@arkadi100 "In most cases" doesnt mean, in all cases! We all got only one life so it is better to be prepared for a rare situation also. When you can run, you should run, when you see the knife but you also know, that it is too late for a run, you should defend and when you cant see the knife, you even dont know you should pray.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw I agree. When u r in the corner, you shoud do anything what may help you to survive. My point is that in any other situation one should run away.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw Or, should circumstances exclude this opportunity, at all times maintain safe distance in conjunction with constant moving (ie “dancing around the attacker). The way I was trained, the distance between combatants is split in 3 segments. Should u wish to discuss this further, write to me privately.

[m4ciekw]

@arkadi100 /watch?v=4ah_0gia4A0 This is how the "real" knife attack can look like.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw Good example. Spot 5 difference between what you normally see here and your link. Have a look on my page, what drunk and disturbed man with almost no skills can do. That took place in Moscow subway.

[m4ciekw]

@arkadi100 I train a MMA and KM, and I know that YT is like a trash and many of techniques are piece of crap, but some are very usefull, you should always train it and use it in a full contact sparring, to see if it is working for you or not. Some of it are dependent on speed, timing, footwork or agressiveness so it could be working only for some people.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw I’m not going to argue, everyone is entitled to have own opinion. I’m not training anyone, but I did get a bit of training. However, what I saw in real life situation was very different. You can check the linked video, I placed here. That guy’s name is Kochergin. He is former Special Forces operative. He may not be the best, but he is VERY good at this.

[arkadi100]

@m4ciekw Pls have a look how his partner was attacking him. And it is still “soft” version. PS to get the knife of the Kochargin has bitten him :)

[TacticalPie]

@arkadi100 BIG PROBLEM THOUGH...what if they are faster?

[arkadi100]

@TacticalPie Tactical expert :) The one who is shitting himself, is always faster :)

[reliwhat]

@arkadi100 what if the guy runs faster than you?

[arkadi100]

@reliwhat As I said before: "The one who is shitting himself, is always faster" :)

[arkadi100]

@reliwhat When u feel that this is THE END, and believe me everyone does, u would be running faster than Ferrary :)

[BrainChild666]

@arkadi100 What if you were with your mom or daughter? I agree run while yelling knife is the best defense but if you have to fight the RATS system is the best I have trained. Full force full contact is the only way to learn to defend and respect the blade.

[arkadi100]

@BrainChild666 Blade needs space :) It's not wrestling or hand to hand. "Full force" does not mean anything. 14 year old can send u to heaven.

[BrainChild666]

@arkadi100 Agreed a 6 year old with a knife is dangerous. You will fight just like you train. If you train at 50% speed and force you will not know what to do with a real attack that is full force and full of adrenaline.

[arkadi100]

@BrainChild666 Well, up to u. I just said what I know.

[DaBlindKungFuMastuh]

@arkadi100 i would prolly rather go up against a guy with a gun in my face

[ytgrabber]

Criminal knows that you can carry a knife or a gun. He asks you for money and you must comply otherwise he kills you with a brutal force as you might be a treat for him or witness. In London Ontario where I live 4 y/ago Muslim rat killed 80 y/old man on cemetery who refused to give him $5. If criminal wants to kill you he can draw a knife and slit your throat in one movement in less than 1 second. You are dead before you know it This guy is nonsense

[hussien2632]

@ytgrabber NO THER IS BAD MUSLIMS BOUT THER IS BAD CHRISTIONS TO AND MOST OF ISRAEL IS BAD IF A MUSLIM KILLED 80 Y OLD MAN THET DOSE NOT MEAN THET ALL THE ISLIM ARE BAD NO MOST OF THEM ARE GOOD LIKE HEZBULLH THEYR GOOD I LOVE HRZBULLH GOOD JOB IN 2006 WAY DO YOU CHRISTIANS HATE THE MUSLIM IM A MUSLIM SO PLEASE DONT SEY MUSLIM RAT

[CQB32]

I have to say that these defenses are very difficult to utalize in real time. A determind attacker is not thrusting the weapon and stopping. Watch the videos of prison stabbings. Anytime you think you think you will use timing and quickness to block a knife attack and then gain control off that you are in big trouble. Just does not work that way live. We train 100% with shock knives that hurt like hell. The type of defenses in this video have a very high failure rate, good in theory not reality.

[Alexrider000]

Great video and I totally agree when somebody is trying to do you bodily harm if you can you hurt them and not let them win at their game. I look foreword to watching more of your videos.

[best496]

do bodybuilding and get really big so the knife cant hurt you

[NoiselessJoe]

The people from scream should've watched this

[lathesius]

watch what a real knife training video should look like /watch?v=DdJAgfO2GQc

[jorgeasalas]

we are disarming so we don't kill them and be the murdered

[basssorc]

Well, i will use my time to train my stamina in order to run away from a knife attack, rather than training this for years still not being sure if it will work in a combat situation. Thats the best tactic in my opinion.

[1xayekim]

Its cool to watch but there are quite a few flaws in this thinking of a knife attack. This is for high level krav maga types that would all this fluid movement down with limb manipulation etc. Also there are plenty of forms in the beginning that a knife wielding baddie would simply void by hacking and slashing with all the arm techniques that draw you in close to your attacker .... Not a good idea... Its better especially if you have no weapon to create distance by your feet or movement...

[ivanthaterrible]

1:43 looks like he has a pointy boner

[serdar213]

If you want to make effective these techniques, you have to add a counter punch with your block othervise you cannot perform the grabs or others.

[Cornholio602]

What should i do if they attack me with a dildo?

[BanzaiSunz]

@Cornholio602 Use Pocket Pussy It'll Protect U Again Dildo

[lmnopnc]

i dont know what you guys think but this guy is bad a**

[bellygirldance]

Real killing tactics?

[xXxTaCTiiXxXx]

Does this also work for black ops?

[zevenkamp]

Everybody knows that people who are going to attack you with a knife are going to stop the motion for 10 secs so you can grab their arm. Everybody also knows that they are going to try to stab your torso and not slash your limbs or something because that would be to easy. Because after all knife attackers are sportive decent non-intoxicated relaxed people who don't know anything about knife fighting.

[jeviam]

Common sense

[Mrdesmondio]

reminds me of dwight schrute.

[Aqualiteking]

I'd like to see you protect yourself from the prison yard rush.

[PS3joshua]

yoooo!!!! nowww this guy knowsss what da hell he's talkin about this is the best tactics ive seen on youtube big propss to diss dude and his trainin partner lols!!

[freetoskate4life]

dam it would suck to be the dude that comes after u with a knife

[Vikverjar]

I am sure all those techniques work very well. The only problem is not getting gangraped in prison by Chester the Molester and his friends afterwards.

[aeronut19]

Or you can just run fast.

[jonilsen351]

The blade is always moving. Even inexperienced attackers keep the blade moving. The term "self defence" breeds a reciever mentality(unless it's used in court). Be the feeder, don't wait for him to attack. In reality, that's the only thing that works.

[jonilsen351]

Totally reciever based techniques. Unrealistic technique used against an unrealistic attack. Nobody stabs or cuts and the stays there

[etorelly]

the techniques are good and the concepts are correct, but I think they are too complicated to work under real stress circumstances.

[MariMano357]

@etorelly

What's complicated about stepping to the side, grabbing and breaking, or punching to the throat? Fuck stress, some of it is basic reflex, and it gets better with repetition and hard training...

[FreeMacBookToday]

@MariMano357 Well what i think he's saying is that a REAL attacker who REALLY wants to kill you is NOT going to try and stab you super SLOW like they are.... They are gunna stab you unless your a ninja but IDK if thats what he meant

[odensmeadhorn]

@etorelly exactly.

[daltonsbadboy]

Good material

[WillSubscribe4Food]

why are these guys bald?

is it part of self defense?

LOL

[alikos88]

@WillSubscribe4Food

YES it certainly is part of self defense

a bald head give the attacker no chance of grabbing your hair to cripple/or gain levarge over you.

thats why most Military Forces dont allow their recrutis to have dreadlocks or mullets

[dumbodonus]

@WillSubscribe4Food Aerodynamics.... they are also scientists...

[Rapist87]

What a plonker

[spartanlemming1996]

I tried this when some1 tried 2 hit me, IT IS RUBBISH your opponent is 2 fast, so after he succeded in hitting me I used my own methods (years of self training and sas research) and he went home crying to get a check up 4 a broken jaw and dislicated arm!(if your looking for self defence search 4 sas tactics and tone them down eg. stab knife into armpit = stab 2 fingers into armpit.(the person attacking me didnt have any injuries apart from a sprain because he was my angry freind!!

[badger09876]

@spartanlemming1996 bloody hell! another SAS wanabe who thinks hes super cool at self defence. get a grip

[TheSamaell]

@spartanlemming1996 don't want to insult you but i've seen self trained tough guys come to the gym and get humiliated by trainers ( with military background some of them ) so yes SAS training real and to the point ... self training is limited ... i friendly recommend you to join a dojo or class with real teachers its allot more fun too ... good luck ( sry for the english )

[spartanlemming1996]

@TheSamaell oh I was in a bragging mood lol im not realy like that if I saw sum1 post a comment like that now id thing they were a retard so I agree. i was 12 when I posted that so yea I am starting a gym and maybe some classes now as I learned a few pressure points etc but still not all that good im strong for my age and have mild aaspurgers syndrome so I think differently, and tend to have good reflexes (not like my other comment suggested though lol).

[13000000a]

I wonder can they really do those moves really fast tho? i mean in real life ppl move way faster then they would in trainin vid....

do they have a vid where people actually try their best to cut them and they dodged it?

[13000000a]

wait does the murder part apply to all states?

[Badger9001]

Very nicely done. However, make sure that you mention "Self Defense" rules are different if you're a trained combatant. It's not viewed the same way in court if you, or I use a CQC tactic to insure death in self defense as it would be for a civilian. Depending on how the kill is carried out will determine how you're tried in court. I think these methods would be view negatively unless you have a sympathetic jury, and aren't tried in a Federal Court. Good teaching though.

[cobalt40nuke]

I never thought about the murder part thank you. Lol, it seems so much easier just breaking their arm!

[foxayroxay25]

Seems like trying to make him slash his own throat is too risky. If you miss then he's still got the knife.

I'd rather take the knife away if I could and cut him if he's still aggressive and deal with the jury than let him keep his weapon in his hands.

[Perryownsyou]

Very good video, though I wish they would make one on how to defend yourself against someone bigger than you.

[jamierob2k8]

i live in england and if tht actualy happend and i hit him in the throat and killed him would it be classed as murder / manslaughter or self defense ?

[sauron610]

yeah dude, I'd break that bastard's arm too.

[SonofBrunhilde]

Oh I see! Not only is this a guy a warrior. He's a lawyer too. LOLOL

[daleyy1234]

not a very good tactic if its a double sided blade i meen it looks like the attacker still has some movement but i can only see from one angle

[JasonRadley]

So what's your plan, dimbulb?

[bellygirldance]

@daleyy1234

Yes, and... he has a FREE ARM AND HAND!

lol

[jamierob2k8]

hes also a mathematician haha

[rebelstang]

GET"R"DONE!

[Mark5043]

Great video.Just be aware that self defense laws,are very tricky,and convoluted at best.The best solution is to be aware of your surroundings,and try to avoid this situation if you can. I was attacked with a knife in 1995.I ended up doing five years in the joint.I had no weapon other than my hands,and feet.i opened up a SERIOUS industrial sized can of whup ass on my attacker,and I'm the one who did time.Please remember the more you know about self defense,the less you can use it!

[daleyy1234]

it depends on how much you kicked his ass lol once he/she is down and out you dont keep beating the shit out of them lmaooo

[VigonSaze]

Self defense is do whatever it takes to insure your safety. Depending on the situation you should almost never critically injure your attacker nor kill them.

[timskylark]

mmkkk..... And If there stronger then you it will be a succesful hit thats what most of you are thinking... WRONG NO IT WONT!!!,And if you do get them in the arm breaking posistion... Break their damn arm... And AFTER!! AFTER!!! AFTER!!! you break something disarm them then just break some other stuff... get some kicks and punches in there... Try to knock em' out Then call the cops...

[SelfDefenceExpert]

Why do we disarm? Because we dont want to become murderers.

[Xaius]

if someone is coming to attack you and you know it / are expecting the attack.... you run away

if you are not expecting the attack, theres a few reasons that 90% of the techniques on youtube are bullsh!t including this one.

no one attacks with a single stab. no one. its multiple attacks, its fast and its not straight on, its from different angles.

no one stands there with their left arm hanging loosely while they stab, they use the offhand to grab you or push you or pin you up against something.

[Xaius]

lastly and most importantly, unless you have trained literally thousands and thousands of hours to react in a certain way, your natural instincts and unconscious reflexes will kick in.

you will not be able to grab a hand or deflect the hand. your natural reflexive response is to drop into a lower stance, move backwards, shoot the hands out towards the threat, usually ending up near the attackers upper arm or shoulders. thats where training should start, anything else is nowhere near realistic

[timskylark]

DUDE I COULDN'T AGREE MORE!!! ITS NOT LIKE GOD GAVE HUMANS 2 HANDS FOR NOTHING!!! Like come on people... My advice would be to always carry a melee weapon in case of an unknown attack!!! THEY WOULD SERIOUSLY PIN YOU AGAINST SOMETHING!!! GRAB THEIR DAMN ARM TAKE OUR YOUR MELEE AND SLICE N DICE EM'!!!! YOU ALSO HAVE 2 HANDS JUST LIKE THE KILLER. People need to open they're eyes. USE TWO HANDS TO ALSO DEFEND!!! THEY DO TO ATTACK.. THAT DOESN'T MEAN YOU CANT TO DEFEND!!!!!! ITS COMMON SENCE PEOPLE!!

[sauron610]

Lets bring it down a knotch... or five.. :3

[Fletch828]

Save your legal interpretation. It is incorrect and confusing as far as murder vs self defense.

[laurentmougeot]

REAL combat tactics? Who are you kidding? Have you ever SEEN a real knife attack? This would only work on a 80 years old man with severe arthritis! In real life, there is NO TIME to do that fancy stuff, to step outside, etc...lets see you do it at full speed against someone attacking at random, determined! Also, what about the left arm, you don't think he will immediately Punch you? Is he just gonna stand there? For no bullshit knife defensed, try Krav Maga (IKMF)

[Kombatboy1]

Ha! I have seen Krap Maga defense and most of it is useless and will get you killed. I have studied Martial arts for some time, your comments only serve to highlight your lack of real training. You are bashing this Video, Yet you have added it to YOUR FAVORITES. Anything is possible with the correct training. I believe this Video is of the Promotional/Commercial variety. You should sign up! Better to remain silent, and have people think you're a fool than to open you mouth and erase all Doubt.

[laurentmougeot]

LOL very funny how sensitive people get once you call their bullshit. I am a certified Krav Maga instructor, have been teaching real self-defense most of my life in addition to my two black belts in two styles of karate, and years of practice of tae-kwon-do and Aikido. I was also in countless street fights thoughout my youth. Come take my class and I will demonstrate to you what works and why the "techniques" in this video can never work. no bad feelings!

[Kombatboy1]

LOL what is funny is it's not my video. I am just an observer. Perhaps I will come take your class and teach you some humility. Please send me the information. I cannot wait!

[Traderwick]

@Kombatboy1 You have just bashed Krav Maga when you have never trained in it. Does that not make you a fool as well?

[Sk8terboymoo]

@Kombatboy1 you must have really sucked at observing....

[KJMH91]

only morons would slice or stab with a knife like that, if i had a knife in my hand i would make curves and angles which arent basic for the most people like this. a knife goes very fast ud be cut in pieces very easily.. i did knife training at ninjutsu lessons, we had fake knifes and we had to simulate a street fight, they got cut in pieces in no time

[PonDeAttack]

LOL he got pretty loose wrists for a cold blooded army dude !!!! xD

[israelmonrroy]

I just got robbed $300 my ipod and my phone.how i wish now that i had taken that self defence training i wanted to take long ago, so please everybody who sees this go and start taken it man you never know when you gonna need it. im happy i was not kill they pulled switch blades on me, a 2-Way Gravity Police Baton and i lost my senses i did know what to do .when you feel helpless let them take "verything"you b greatful.then go and learn self defence i will from now on. good luck.take my advice

[archipald]

This is without a doubt my favorite self-defence video.

"why disarm him if I can breake his arm He has a wepon - I don't., why wouldn't I breake his arm. even if i had e wepon I would breake It!"

Muahahahaaa

I can't beleve it how careless he is towards one's life. ha ha.....

This is a person I wouldn't want to piss off.

[1337rocklee]

If you're being attacked by a guy with a knife, I doubt you're going to care whether or not something you do could possibly get you in trouble.

Additionally most of your advice and techniques are waaay too violent. Most people I know would have trouble knowing that they've taken a life.

[VashHash]

totally agree with this break the arm kill the guy if they wanna kill you kill them fucking awesome

[arctic36]

you can also run away..

[Lad22nd]

This is when the 2nd amendment comes in for you.

[Seelenbrandt]

that was the fucking most hilarious self-defense video ive ever seen!

[Okaruwazashi]

Avoid danger.

Then you don't have to kill or be killed haha.

These videos should link to a discussion of self-defence strategy. That's the most important thing.

Strategy > Tactics > Technique

[waidan01]

This video links to a whole defense system; strategy included. Check out their website.

[MDAC1012]

Horrible, absolutely horrible. This guy does not have a clue, if he thinks this crap would work against a real attacker he is living in a fantasy world.

[nhouston4rat]

This information will get you killed. No one will ever attack you like the demonstrator, and these "techniques" will not work in real life.  If you are attacked with someone armed with a knife: RUN! If you cannot, get in a corner or on the ground and kick like crazy whilst screaming for help. These "tactics" will get you killed. They will not work in real life.

[TTok33]

All those "legal advices" make sense. Couldn't agree more even though I've never lived is the USA. But in reality the solid blocks work only if the stab was delivered by a 80 y.o. lady :-) Why not just step aside and try to redirect a knife like you demonstrated at 7:54?

Also I really doubt anyone if a fight can deliver a finger punch to the throat. Usually the fingers or even knuckles (fist punch) get broken cuz most of the people would simply miss.

[willbo26]

whoa this guys serious i wish i could do this sort of stuff

[da91no]

yeah, I know. My mom talked on the phone with the school today and said that I`m not going back before they have done something ;) I`m not going to a school that thinks its alright to carrie weapon! If that dosen`t work we have to call the police

[Lad22nd]

Nicely done. :)

[Lad22nd]

Practice it 1000 times a day, then it'll be an awesome self defense tool.

[da91no]

one question, do you need to be strong for this? because im a skinny 17 year old girl, and I found out that a boy in my class goes around with a knife every day and he has held it up onfolded a lot of times, and the teachers are not doing annything! :( sorry for my bad english im not American :)

[Lad22nd]

Privately take it up with the principle of the school and tell him you have concerns for your safety and the safety of your school mates, if they don't do anything about it you may have to take it to the police, if someone is carrying a concealable weapon and your concerned for your safety, you have an OBLIGATION to take it up or otherwise get a good reason from them why he is carrying it, it doesn't matter if you can't prove he carries it either, they are legally obligated to look into it.

[Lad22nd]

Let it remain private, don't tell your friends why your taking time off or anyone else because words do get around, and if you do have to end up taking it to the police and that kid knows it was you he might have it in for you, but then again everyone has that logic. KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

[anderspua]

you need to be quick and precise. it takes very little pressure to brake something using the right technique. therefore if you wanna be safe; practice. :)

[jmwillnew]

good approach and ideas tho

[jmwillnew]

He says it is easy to do several times, NO its not. A good drill to see how "easy" it is; give a 10 year old a marker and tell them to go at you full out and see how many marks you get before you get the marker out of his hands, and you will get marks

[waidan01]

Check out the whole video on the website. He mentions that a "trained" knife fighter will attack on certain angles and aim for crucial target. He also mentions that an unpredictable untrained person with a knife is possibly more dangerous for just that reason. I have seen some of the videos and i belive that after the training it will be "easy". You are also trying to disarm the 10 yr old not incapacitate him. Playing with a kid is not realistic, you are not trying to hurt him.

[jmwillnew]

I completely agree, I have trained for many years, (and been cut in real situations) but for someone believing that it is easy, needs a quick dose of reality. It may not be realistic, however it does show how deadly the situation is. TRUTHFULLY nothing ever gets "easy", no matter how hard you train. I need check out the dvds.

[jmwillnew]

Thank you for your input by the way

[VBROWN987]

this is that real s*it!! straight up man. this is so much more practical than all that ancient Chinese stuff (I'm sorry no racism or disrespect intended) these methods are quick, easy and a breeze to remember and react with. MORE PLEASE!

[aaroncclankowner10]

omfg. this works. i watched this some time ago, then yesterday i nearly got stabbed and i did one of these moves (the one were you dislocate the arm) and i managed to get away. hes in hospital now and he is sentenced to jail forever because he had commited crimes before about killing people.

[Lad22nd]

Are you serious??

[themindsi]

these are real combat tactics  no messing around very good info

[909540]

this dude is mean! i mean that with all due respect, but holy shaznat, slice them without fingerprints? raw as fuck

[waidan01]
