Richard. Do you remember the old Streetfigthsecrets video (I guess it got taken down) which had the song 'Out Here' by Strategy and PCT? It was awesome and I literally can't find it anywhere. I'm subscribed to the record label's (dangermoneyrecords) youtube and I've messaged them but nothing has come of it. Thanks
i know i don't get on with doorman i dunno wht it is but but when ur drunk and u get rejected it just kind of pisses u off so i go 2 a bar where i know the bouncers and then i get on fine with them thts the problem with these people who go 2 like numerous clubs a night they get in 2 fights and arguments with people they don't know
I've been there. I personally don't feel comfortable outside of my house either for the same reasons. Unfortunately, I live in the US where there's an even higher propensity for violence. There are an increasing number of thugs in my town coming from Chicago and St. Louis. Quite a few muggings and unprovoked attacks happen, so, I'm always looking over my shoulder. I'm becoming increasingly paranoid. I enjoy your videos though, they make me feel better.
Hi Richard, great videos. There seem to be more doormen nowadays (I live in Bournemouth). I sometimes get intimidated by this because it creates an underlying tension to expect violence. I know it's totally necessary but it just shows that the culture in this country is in a bad way. I lived in Spain (where there's loads of coke/drinking too) and there's much less thuggish violence in comparison. What do you think creates this 'powder keg' I often sense on a night out in U.K? All the best.
I'll be turning 40 in a couple of weeks and I'm a doorman at a large college club (900 people). I watched a few of your videos and want to complement you on your candor and your concepts/techniques of protection. I've seen many situations go from bad to worse in seconds. It's important to have strategies in place for your own personal safety. I just ordered your Thug - Jitsu DVD/manual and am looking forward to a good read. You can never have too much knowledge in this field. Thanks again
I realize this video is pretty old, but is there a particular reason you started to train in the more "combative-sport" oriented martial arts? Did you feel that there was some kind of inadequacy to the Japanese arts you were learning? If so, what did you feel that they were, specifically?
been watching your videos and think they offer good advice, do you think its important to learn about the psychology of fighting aswell as your choosen sport/art because you do get wankers who because they have trained abit of boxing or whatever become overly aggressive due to the nature of the sport and there own increased confidence in fighting.
This is why I don't go out clubbing....best defense ...don't be their, + its cheaper to drink at home and I get to chose my music, no taxi's salmonella burgers and dickheads with attitude. Except me and you can't really fall out with yourself, i've tried but i always get shouted down :)
The same things have been happening for me the last days people I know and some who where somehow friends are attacking me. I fear to go out of my house because I'm quite scared of getting attacked by these assholes. Most of the times they attack in numbers, so does anyone know what techniques I should use agains't bigger people than you and that fight in numbers?
I'm around the 1.70-175 skinny but powerfull in fights and I'd gladly any advise I could get.
It appears there are a few out there who just don't get this guy. I have been into Martial Arts for over twenty years and to be honest most like boxing are good for a controlled environment i.e. ring/dojo. However the street fight has no rules and when fuelled with drugs- you have a completely ruthless opponent. IMAO this guy is offering an opportunity to learn something that takes encompasses these risks
hi Rich Q: we have a lot of eastern Europeans in ireland as in the uk poles/Lithuanians and while most are nice people,some are not. i train in muay thai and bodybuilding but i look at some of these lads and think there Beasts ! they have all been in the army they go to the gym,they train in mixed martial arts and on the wend they get tanked up become very aggressive and beat the s**t outa some poor lad what chance really dose one have if attacked by someone like this? no racism intended;)
@elctronicmusic Well you'll get your more thug element in any group of people. Trained with E.European dudes when I lived in London, yep they like their MMA and they like their weights and they have a kind of "macho culture" thing going on. It's your job as a self protection practioner to use your social intelligence/psychology to get to know some of these guys, make a few allies. Just do what I did: start training with them. They open up really quick and are dead friendly in my experience.
@streetfightsecrets I would like to add: some remained total bellends, but a percentage slice of any demographic is reserved for "total bellends".
As to what you can do if attacked by a group of aggressive, tanked up, muscular guys who like to train in fighting... well if you're in that position you're in for a very rough night arent you?
to be honest you could be describing scousers : everyone seems to be on gear and everyone seems to be doing MMA
@christoffff "it has worked" every time, very well thanks
seriously though the sentence construction alone gives away peoples lack of experience: "it"? there is no "it" - so "it" cannot "work" its not a thing that performs a function well or fails to like a tool for a job. A "c-grip" is a nominalisation it describes a phenomena: one guy grabbing another guy around the throat, aggressively. The man works, the technique is incidental. Train. Get some experience.
As unusual as this sounds.... the day i was jumped changed my life for the better. i rushed into save a friend of mine..there was about 15 of them.. managed to escape looking like a goldfish... i dont know how..adrenaline?.. For some reason in the weeks after i became filled with this fire ...this energy.... iv never taken shit of anyone since. i suppose its like a dog that is beaten ...after a while it becomes a pitbull. I fear no man anymore..... which has its up's and down's ha ha lol

This videos great and it makes some good points,I also feel I can relate to what richard was saying with the fear since things happend to me in the past that sort of created this fear and tbh it was martial arts that got me back on my feet.
and as for doormen they should have equal power to the normal person, someone starts fucking breaking stuff and assaulting dam they should be dealt with. ( with the right ammount of force needed ofc)
that is so true about the media hyping up that particular thing about when you try to help someone you get really badly hurt or killed. Its all about fear mungering but also to keep us seperated from each other so big brother can fuck us ^^ cool video
Nice clip, though unsure of the message he is sending. His argument seems to be based around the need to incorporate simple violence into an already violence plagued sector of the security industry. I agree with his stance on licensing wont fix everything and indeed Police and inevitably the bureaucrats need to be more responsive and forth coming with helping the sector self regulate. Although I disagree with allowing legislation to be changed to increase powers to private sector security,
No wonder Brits thiink that Yanks are so ignorant, but it's US "of" A not US "and" A. If your going to use abbreviations than use the "fuxcking" correct ones. :)
ANYONE !!! i need help !!! ..i have always been a fighter had a good few scraps .ect ect but something happend the other night i was out with a few friends having a laugh when we where confronted another group of lads ..words where said and fists flew but for some ODD!! reason ,,i froze...cudnt move this has NEVER happend before ..my confidence is shatterd and my self of steem broken but the bad thing is im going on a door in town in few days ....what shud i do im fucked !!!
good video!! im a doorman and it so hard trying to deal with thugs when you know you do your job the police will be in checking the cctv to see if your actions were justifued. what makes me laugh is everyone thesedyas wants to fight the doorman cos they know they have sia. but when you give them what they want they cry to the police. bring back the ol days
First you're not able to copy what someone else writes? If they write "doorman" than they mean "dorrman". And anyway Its said in the video, and it's quite obvious from the context (video) that "doorman" is the same as "bouncer".
@grooveongreg Yep! Or gang up on you in the street all wanna be gangster. Then when you give a couple of them a nose job they call the cops lol Of course you have barley any dammage cause they suck, and they look like you beat them to hell. So who are the cops gonna arrest? I dont cause any trouble and mind my own buisness, unless I see an innocent getting hurt. But man if you want to hurt me for no reason, Then I'm going to make sure you get hurt even more! Some times ppl need a wake up ;) IMHO
I doubt it, I dont think theres a height requirement as long as your tough enough to take out anybody that causes shit. Richard Grannon doesn't look that tall but hes built and can take care of himself.
Don't wanna sound like a fuckin gimp, but he has leterally hit the nail on the head! I agree with everypoint the bloke made, fair do's to him, shame the government don't watch this
I don't agree with all of what he's saying here. There are plenty of cops and Doormen that get around the legislation and vetting that like to beat people up whether they're doing anything wrong or not.
I know the kid that got put in a coma by the head bouncer of the opal lounge in Solihull. That guy had been beating kids up for years, and he pulled a clever trick on this one: he threw him out, waited for him to walk past the cctv by the door then called him back to knock him out.
The kid came out of his coma and had the testimonies of several witnesses for the court case. According to the Docs, due to the extent of his head injuries he was unbelievably lucky to survive without brain damage. (he hit the back of his head on the concrete outside where he fell from the force of the punch)
Head bouncer guy got sent down like the arrogant no good piece of shit that he was.
It's hard to sympathise with Bouncers when they act like guard dogs instead of security guards.
richard, im a doorman as well and agree with you, we r doing a favour to the government and the police and we dont have any support when we have to do our job, keep up the good work, respect brov, god bless
@streetfightsecrets nah mate am not lying i dont care if you belive me or you dont ..am just saying you've more a less got to be a bullying prick for this job ..i HATED it ...its virtually intimidation to ordinary people but sucking ass to gangsters and for where an who i worked ..inimportant
This is just brilliant ! I am so impressed with everything being put out by StreetFightingSecrets I can spare no superlatives. It makes me appreciate that I survived those years in college/grad school that I worked the door. I am recently disabled and require a cane to get around so now I can just whack someone with that. ( I am learning and practicing a lot ) I also ( due to my disability ) carry a knife and have a permit to carry a pistol concealed ( I live in Dallas, Texas USA )
Simply excellent and true video!Having worked as a doorman in bars I agree totally with you Rich!Having worked in the enviroment made me reliaze I had to change my way of martial arts and the way to deal with situations when they arose.Nothing worse than dealing with a group of idiots hopped up on drugs.Guys at the start of the night are friendly with you and later on when high will be willing to kill you. This is the reality! Some doormen I knew would get stoned to have a level playing feild.
Interesting discussion about there almost being a conspiracy of fear creation - the 'anxiety culture' website has loads of material about the media's hyping up of violence, the benefit to advertisers of having a fearful anxious consumer base, strategic placing of adverts after certain types of TV shows, as well as some really interesting stuff on techniques for 'de-stupifying' against this.
Solid philosophy, Those that focus on peace that choose to only look at the blue sky and pretty flowers, forget the savageness between the Wolf and the rabbit. People need to wake up and know that the authorities will arrive after the damage is done, rarely do they prevent it. God bless em, but they are not posted gaurd outside your home. Make no mistake this world is not tame. For most of us it takes a rude awakening to make us see it. There are predators, so the good must become protectors.
well if you dont react your mam and dad and brothers have to carry you down in a coffin by 6 people for example my little brother who just would not fight so got stabbed twice in the heart,i would prefere to be judged by a jury of 12 who will possiby see my side,why
hey mate.,ur arguments on the 911 conspiracy video led me to trace n see WHO IS THIS GENIUS ?! hehehe,.,u spoke the truth n told off those other bush lovin jackasses ! and now i saw this vid of urs and its all truth again man ! im from pakistan but living in london by the way. ure an agressive kickboxer and im an aggresive drummer, so check my lamb of god redneck drum video and lets carry on educating this dam world about harsh realities of life and human nature ! safe ! fuck em dead dude ! >;)
lol! youre right. if u talked like tony soprano or joe pesci, i would understand everything. by the way, in a couple weeks im starting a part time job as a doorman at a real popular lounge in jersey. im already drilling your techniques with my training partners so im pretty confident i can hold down the fort against all the big guidos and juicers that come through there. so keep up the good work.
hey richard as a competitor in jiu jitsu and muay thai u have shown me what real streetfighting is all about. ur vids have helped me to adapt my training for the streets. ive already ordered one dvd and i plan to get more. by the way, no offense but have u ever considered subtitles for ur vids? im from new jersey and sometimes i have trouble understanding ur accent
I'm from Jersey, and I don't have a typical Jersey accent,, but I can uderstand you clearly, especially in this video because of the enhanced quality compared to your other videos.
By the way keep making the videos! They're spectacularly interesting, even though I probably wont get in a fight soon enough to remember the techniques and tips. Thankfully I live in an area where fights aren't at all common, but you never know.
I take it back. he's not an idiot. but when he escalated the violence with that coke-head where he held him and his colleague would punch him in the face...if he were a professional doorman he could have brought that guy to the floor and hold him there and call for the police. but what he did was injuring someone really seriously with someone who helped him
I've only been a security guard. Trust me mate it took 4 of us to hold down one drugged up guy, who was probably about 12-13 stone, I swear. Including one 16 stone rugby player who he threw off, he fought the police as the were arresting him and even in the police station. I was scared, I knew if we let him up he would have probably battered all of us.
You've never tried to hold someone on coke then! I have took the drug before (not trying to sound big, just out of sheer curiousity) and let me tell you: it gives you ego AND extra power you never knew you had! So yes, please try restraining a cokehead and let us know how you get on :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
What a sad,low IQ cunt. But he'll spend much of his miserable, scum-sucking life as an old man, defenceless and fearful. Hope he gets shot. He's just as much a criminal as the criminals. The filth are no better. Criminals, police, bouncers - they're all strains of low IQ sub-humans. Sterilise them all.
dang, youtube is really full of trolls! keep doing what you do and ignore the shrill squeals of people who just talk shit about things they have no understanding of.
as a martial artist, i can appreciate what you are doing.
with that statement it seems that you have the low IQ as people like richard an myself and many others want to help people survive these very dangerous streets. You mention bouncers in the list of scum ok you get some dicks but most will keep you safe would you rather have anarchy? Richard Grannon wants to help people to be able to control an survive horrendous situations. your attitude wil get you killed if you ever end up in a situation that is out of your control maybe then you will know.
I knew you were from liverpool an I totally agree with all your sayin'. nice work mate. we need more of u around! Life can be a bitch in liverpool especially round wer i live.
Mr Grannon. I have folowed you and Bob for a while now and your story is to say the least inspiring! You are a great teacher and orator and make a brilliant team with Bob. You have taken the market in the UK for this type of fighting/psychology and are doing extremely well. If I can make a suggestion to a side of of the market that I do not see already out there and would b most practical... meditation, using your 'chi' and exploring everthing in between. I think this is whats needed from you.;)
check out the "cage fight" video he just put up. A lot of his background and extensive training in different styles can be seen here. I was thoroughly impressed!
"Fear is the mind killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain."
its not a conspiracy the people at the top do fucked up shit everyday like encouraging violence and theres many resons but cba explaining its long

WTF is a door man? do you mean bouncer?
blacksuite1 2 years ago
First you're not able to copy what someone else writes? If they write "doorman" than they mean "dorrman". And anyway Its said in the video, and it's quite obvious from the context (video) that "doorman" is the same as "bouncer".
Lexduden 2 years ago
@grooveongreg Yep! Or gang up on you in the street all wanna be gangster. Then when you give a couple of them a nose job they call the cops lol Of course you have barley any dammage cause they suck, and they look like you beat them to hell. So who are the cops gonna arrest? I dont cause any trouble and mind my own buisness, unless I see an innocent getting hurt. But man if you want to hurt me for no reason, Then I'm going to make sure you get hurt even more! Some times ppl need a wake up ;) IMHO

I doubt it, I dont think theres a height requirement as long as your tough enough to take out anybody that causes shit. Richard Grannon doesn't look that tall but hes built and can take care of himself.

I don't agree with all of what he's saying here. There are plenty of cops and Doormen that get around the legislation and vetting that like to beat people up whether they're doing anything wrong or not.
I know the kid that got put in a coma by the head bouncer of the opal lounge in Solihull. That guy had been beating kids up for years, and he pulled a clever trick on this one: he threw him out, waited for him to walk past the cctv by the door then called him back to knock him out.
crosboid 2 years ago
The kid came out of his coma and had the testimonies of several witnesses for the court case. According to the Docs, due to the extent of his head injuries he was unbelievably lucky to survive without brain damage. (he hit the back of his head on the concrete outside where he fell from the force of the punch)
Head bouncer guy got sent down like the arrogant no good piece of shit that he was.
It's hard to sympathise with Bouncers when they act like guard dogs instead of security guards.

Interesting discussion about there almost being a conspiracy of fear creation - the 'anxiety culture' website has loads of material about the media's hyping up of violence, the benefit to advertisers of having a fearful anxious consumer base, strategic placing of adverts after certain types of TV shows, as well as some really interesting stuff on techniques for 'de-stupifying' against this.
rp1816 2 years ago
Solid philosophy, Those that focus on peace that choose to only look at the blue sky and pretty flowers, forget the savageness between the Wolf and the rabbit. People need to wake up and know that the authorities will arrive after the damage is done, rarely do they prevent it. God bless em, but they are not posted gaurd outside your home. Make no mistake this world is not tame. For most of us it takes a rude awakening to make us see it. There are predators, so the good must become protectors.

I'm from Jersey, and I don't have a typical Jersey accent,, but I can uderstand you clearly, especially in this video because of the enhanced quality compared to your other videos.
By the way keep making the videos! They're spectacularly interesting, even though I probably wont get in a fight soon enough to remember the techniques and tips. Thankfully I live in an area where fights aren't at all common, but you never know.
Keep it up man!

I take it back. he's not an idiot. but when he escalated the violence with that coke-head where he held him and his colleague would punch him in the face...if he were a professional doorman he could have brought that guy to the floor and hold him there and call for the police. but what he did was injuring someone really seriously with someone who helped him

I've only been a security guard. Trust me mate it took 4 of us to hold down one drugged up guy, who was probably about 12-13 stone, I swear. Including one 16 stone rugby player who he threw off, he fought the police as the were arresting him and even in the police station. I was scared, I knew if we let him up he would have probably battered all of us.

You have taken the market in the UK for this type of fighting/psychology and are doing extremely well. If I can make a suggestion to a side of of the market that I do not see already out there and would b most practical... meditation, using your 'chi' and exploring everthing in between. I think this is whats needed from you.;)
