  • not tight lock

  • Would this work with a very tight lock aswell?If someone locks your neck real tight it's impossible to move aside i guess?

  • the moves of these guys look normal . I think that with practice you can do these in real life .

  • These guy are actually pretty good :D

  • @laserend Injured bullies* LOL.

  • 23 people don't know how to defend from a side headlock...

  • Don't expect this to work without some muscle. You're going to need a decent amount of strength to push him off balance with one arm.

  • Just pull his leg back, he'll let go. He'll have to if he doesn't wanna fall face first in the ground.

  • i kinda feel bad 4 the guy who had to be the bad guy....

  • thank you guys! I have finally beaten the big bully at school and i have gotten a way better life! even tho i got suspended from school :/ ( i have found out that most grown up people thinks its better to run and cry to a teacher but they cant do as much as using violence.

  • @FirebloodAnimations LOL Sometimes you just gotta "speak their language"...it's the only REAL way to deal with a bully. Good for you.

  • This teaches me a lot's u guys should make a carrier with making matrial arts videos and teaching people with that.

  • @EndaruTassadar go to "ChosunNinja" he teaches martial arts on youtube

  • not quite of a realistic demonstration,i have to say. your training partner is holding you too lightly and too far away from his body,also. you can just pop your head out of the lock at will. if he put some real force on that hold , tried to maintain his position and control you as well as hold you closer to him, now that would be a realistic situation,which i think couldnt be dealt with by no means with what escape tactic you demonstrated on this vid.

  • @simos901 it would still have the same effect, its about leverage, if he was held tighter and closer to the body the method would work the same but it would also hurt his assistant a lot more

  • i would use my left arm to knock him in the trhoat because if you let him go down he just stands up and go at you again but if you hit him in the throat he know he wont fuck with you anymore.

  • 0:40 i think if you go on your knees and scrolled him back wards better than that .. thump up if you agree with me

  • The bald guy giving the head lock wasnt even sqeezing, the other baldy could have just slipped out of his arms...

  • question: many people lock your head in their arms and press your head against their chest. how do u escape THAT?

  • @agboy061 You bite them.I know it sounds weird but I've seen fights win by that

  • You could do that........or just rip their balls off much easier

  • much easier : put your left foot between the legs, grab the right foot from your opponent jump back sacrifice. his armlock ironically protects your neck but he gets his skull banged on the floor

  • it looks like you are kicking

  • thats not real.... that guy is not hooking him well... thats not a strong headlock so not real defence

  • thank men !

  • exactly my friend did that, a horse stanced headlock

  • @DragonZord90 False. If you're trying to counter a technique, Aikido is far superior to Kung Fu. Aikido's focus is counters, ergo making it a better martial art for countering.

  • Hell yah! Awesome thanks! Great video. I'm going to counter anytime I get into a fight now. xD

  • Thank you very much for this video , and keep it up

  • @Calculusman08 I TOTALLY AGREE

  • Aikido works better for any kind of grab or attack.

  • they look like skin heads

  • during headlock your hands are free then use them. just punch on goin and he will loose his grip but punch should be harder

  • @kartikupadhyay you sometimes can't do that for several reasons :1some people like me can withstand 30-40 fullpower punches from excelent range so i don't think that you will be concious for that long! .2 sometimes the opponent is so close to you that your hits are as hard and strong as a 5yo hits.3 if the armlock is strong and really hurts you you don't have the time to hit the opponent as much as it's required for him to losen up that grip.So...the best way to escape is the one in the vid

  • dude are u serius?? u do that to me i will kick ur ass

  • it doesn't work...! i fight a big fat guy and i can't escape from him is too hard push his leg and his neck back....it doesn't work at any type of enemy!!>:(

  • @NikiasGR I feel so sorry for you my lost child......with all the beasty blubba rubbing into your face dying of pure suffocation, its no wonder when it got to the leg part of the exercise, his anus was probably pointing into your direction and it just made breathing for you tremendously worse because your out of breath by the time you want to do the leg part on him!.Only slim and medium type enemies should be allowed for this!. I hope you didn't ask him for his telephone no though...

  • TERRIBLE! This move relies on the guy LETTING YOU posture up. A TRUE headlock in this position the guy wants to keep you down if he puts his weight down there is no way you can posture it is physically impossible unless he loosens his hold. When broken down like this, you have two options, one you can grab the waist with the left handmake a T with the guy and push on his left knee with your right hand and spin towards the groundfrm there you can mount. OR...

  • you can grab the waist as before put your left leg between theirs and hit driving them to the side. This guy says LEAN back, HOW? Again, a good headlockk requires tyou keep the guy broken down with force, you just can't stand up if you want. You can here, it's a dumb instruction.

  • YOUR THE BEST NO DAMAGE AND THE GUY IS DOWN ON GROUND SICK

  • I don't wanna kill the person putting me in a headlock...............he is a member of a gang.......

  • this channel is amazing, yoyos and this is just awesome for help

  • instead fckin pnch them in the pressure point

  • If we are talking street defence think about a girlie pinch on thr inside of the thigh.It actually works i've tried it sooooooooooooooooooo funny to see them jump.Try it not a big pinch and on the inside of the thigh.Roll the skin between your fingers.Obviously if they are wearing thick trousers forget it go with ght52 or take out Gb31 on the side of the leg.

  • @101tenkan funny, i had this done to me, and i teach it too. hurt like HELL and i couldnt get away fast enough. really good street move..never saw it coming and it only has to work once

  • i take krav maga and instead of that you reach around and with your fingers press up on the base of their nose as hard as possible....it really hurts nad its human instinct to just let go

  • To anyone who thinks this move is good I want you to think about the most important part about SELF DEFENSE, where are the punches? The attacker in this never tried to hit the guy. Any move is easy when there is no punching. You need to stop the punches first then worry about the head lock. Not to mention if he is big guy and he has a good hold on you. Your going for a ride over his leg in front of you and ending on your back with him on top of you. Which could pop your shoulder while doing this

  • this is helpful as!

  • i have absolutely no martial arts skills at all and i did this in a fight flawlessly...haha its really effective thank you expert village!

  • How do you release his hands?

  • Doesn't help that the subtitles cover the whole screen?

  • this is bullshit ... omg I know i sound like a youtube smartass but anyone who trains self-defense should see that this wouldn't work in a real self-defense situation. normally the guy would grab you real tight and pull your head to his body so bringing your arm over won't be that easy plus they probably will start punching you or push to bring you down on the ground. well i know i will be bombed by people who think different but seriously I wouldn't bet my life on this shit.

  • Ok, good way to get out of it....but one problem with that. The guy making the headlock will have a hell of a lot tighter grip than the guy in the video, and may be stronger than you yourself. So how would that work if he has all his strength in his grip? His hands would be hell to bust apart. He would just take you down with him, and from there who knows what could happen. There are flaws, and there are good points in this, but please. How would you get out if the grip was tight as hell?

  • @Kairyudragon When you do place the hand to the throat and grip their hands. The action in itself will make their grip weaken as where the head goes the body follows. If you find that you don't trust the idea, tuck chin to the shoulder, and try to put the hand under the grip by snaking in. If the head lock is done right, you will be choked. So the hand to the throat can also grip it, especialy on a male assailent, suround the adams apple. They will be choked out faster than you will.

  • @Toyomata True, but I have met ppl (guys especially) with realy strong neck muscles. The chances that they will not flex those muscles when you try to choke them out is slim. Anyone who is getting choked(or almost anyone) would flex the neck muscles to push the hand away from the throat. So, It all depends really on what happens in the instance you do this that they show on the video. Like I said. A few good points, and a few flaws. It is a good technique, but with many variables.

  • @Kairyudragon I would say I have not run into a defeated situation when I grabbed someones throat when choking me. They had to let go because they failed to flex the had out of their throat. Maybe I am just abnormal.

  • @Toyomata Well, I am not saying this technique is a failure. It does work, if the variables work to your advantage. There are always those out there that have a very strong grip, and you yourself must be stronger to break it. Someone might flex the muscles, some wont. They may have a steady balance and throw you into something instead of falling. When you go for the leg they could use that leg to flip you over. Alot of variables is all Im saying. This technique is good. Im not disputing that.

  • @Kairyudragon True, I should have noticed that. I wish the technique was against side head lock on the ground. That is by far in my opinion, much more dangerous than standing. Especially hwen the guy is heavier than you are.

  • @Toyomata Yeah, there is also the fact that I know ppl sometimes grab that way, their legs infront of you, but I have met ppl who do the same move, except that their right/left (depending on which direction he grabbed you in) leg is behind the one recieving a choke. So the leg thing would not quite work. Anyways, heavier ppl, they are tougher, but they do fall harder XD Lol.

  • @Kairyudragon I lucked out on a sparring partner that was twice or more my weight and yes he is near impossible to throw sometimes in the more gappleing sense. Punching or kicking to the ground however works just as well right:)

  • @Toyomata Yeah, usually the bigger they are the better they are standing. When they get on the ground they can be easier.

  • That Is The Sickest Thing I've Ever Seen To Escape This Lock.

  • This is nothing,when i put people in head locks they try doing something like this and my headlock is tight enough that i wont release it and ill fall down with them and still have a head lock on them.im 16 and i did this to a 33 year old but it was just to see how long i could keep him in a headlock.eventually he stuck his finger under my chin and went closer to my neck and sadly i released the lock.

  • finally a way we cn understand how to escape a pretty scary move like the headlock

  • lol thanks now i now what to do when me and my friends ufc fight

  • lol i wish i new this last night.. i was bro scrapping this guy while i was wasted and he was sober.

    i tackled him and he headlocked me on the floor. now i have a bump on my head

  • These guys look like they are in KKK

  • dude THANKS!i get bullied in high school everyday and used this move,he never messed with me again (for now)O_o but thanks

  • who is the silent amputee standing in the back ground?

    this is a much better method than ive seen before, as its more agressive and doesnt need to be super accurate. hopefully this means that even weak/small people are able to do it.

  • oh damn

  • fuck it carry a gun its much safer than this :)

  • @coosokoo true but you cant always have it on you. MOST people even when they are proficient with firearms rarely have the weapon on them, like when they take their woman to the movies or what have you.

    Unarmed combat is a must , firearms is a must.

  • Just grap his balls, doen't make you gay. Or pull his hairs, doesn't make you a pussy, just try to get out of that situation or it may be fatal for you. Not everyone has the reaction to do such things in extreme situations, so go for the easy way.

  • @JustSivas58

    lmao

  • @JustSivas58 Pussy is I'd say, the pussy who actualy starts the fight. Self defence is different.

  • just punch him in his larynx. that'll work just fine :)

  • wow this is the most useless video on the net i say just kick on the groin or insert fingers in his eye

    nice way of putting it lol

  • The headlock in this clip is not tight, nor is it locked! You could just slide your head from under him LOL. This is BS!

  • you dont lean back dick head. thats a good way for them to take u to the ground and STILL hav u in a side headlock.

  • my friends do that all the time, and they hold it until they start getting tired of it...

  • awesome!! sometimes my friend do this too me lol. its hard to get out because he hold me with all his force.. now its easy to get out. and then i tickle him to death.

  • hahahahaha

  • This move works, when put in a headlock or grabed in such a way, you need to drop your wieght, thats the first thing to do, then the rest is up to you and what you prefer to do. keep an open mind about this.

  • lol

  • that will never work because the attacker quickly go down and than you can't do nothing

  • It will work. I prefer to go for the nose, but it does work, you just have to do it quickly and don't hesitate.

  • yea and just look at how loose that headlock is, if that was a street fight i just stick my finger through the guys eyeball

  • Agreed cause' if they force not to fall back thats a problem

  • No because you're forcing their hand and leg away from you as your hand pushes up on their neck.

    Making them lose their balance and once done they cant keep their body center still they go back no matter what

  • Nice :)

  • awsome im gonna try it on my friend zac cuz hes always headlocks me :-)

  • Seriously, who the fuck steps in FRONT of the guys legs when putting them in a headlock?

    And who keeps their arms so open?

    Jesus these people are TRYING to 'attack' like retards to make it look easy to defend against. Bloody useless.

  • It's called a SIDE head lock. You step in front.

  • Obviously a complete failure unless you're trying to snap the guys neck.

  • it doesn't matter how strong you are , a good head lock , guillotine , neck crank , etc. is based on good position and good base , take these away and it is simple for a man half your size to escape , I know from real experience

  • @kevsenior youtube experience doesnt count buddy

  • @LeoLovesNature what's that supposed to mean?

  • @kevsenior this is the easiest to do but also easiest to escape armlock

  • @kevsenior

    and this is true im the smalest kid in my school if people put me in any locks i use techniques and i allways win i put most people in wrist locks after if they dont go to the ground

  • what if the person is stronger than you? Can you still take them down with this move? I wanna wrestle my boyfriend; and he has mastered headlocks.. anytips on beating him? will this help?!?!

  • This is hard to do without weakening them first, ie shots to the groin. I used a similar escape not long ago. For "friendly" use I would reccomend bringing your hand under the nose so the of your pinky presses on the nerves, that'll get the head back easier and safer than the throat. Step on the back of the knee on the side that your on. As he starts to come down, pivot and fall with him to take mount or side control. Hope that helps.

  • how do you bring it under the nose?

    yes this helped:] but im confused on bringing my hanf under the nose and the nerve spot.

  • like he shows with bringing your left hand over the shoulder and to the throat. Do the same except place the edge of your hand under the nose. There's a video called "Chuck Norris Headlock Defense" that shows this technique with the nose variation. Check that one out.

  • so what would happen if they took you with them then what??

  • my brother uses that on me haha

  • All this matial arts bull shit, i'd prefer to just carry a glock 27.

    Obviously just a joke, martial arts have their place. Nothing like a 0.4" hole in someone but whatever.

  • i want to master the martial arts

  • lean back so they have a chance to take your balance

  • what if the guy that has your neck just doesn't let go? then you would be on the floor with him round your neck

  • you can always hit the neck and trip at the same time so that when you hit there neck they get stunned

  • Yah, but it isnt a bad position. Your in side control, and you can drop fat ass elbows on his head, especially if both of his arms are around you, and not defending his own face.

    Thats a common move of blacks, is when they get taken to the ground they just hold on to you.

  • Comment removed

  • last day a creazy chinesse do it to me. he do it soo fast.. i dont see it comming !

  • whoa y didnt i think of that

  • ROFL wtf i thought tht move was invincible finally thx man

  • to also add on to what dragon 1859 said: a lot of times if they have their chin tucked in or you cant seem to execute this technique, simply, instead putting your hand on the chest or throat, use your straight fingers to drive up above the moustache area hitting the bottom of the nose hitting the pressure point. Drive up and it will naturally force them to ease off.

  • what if they squez really tight and it hurts both sides of neck. its like there crushing ur neck

  • looks great but what if your a midget and that ur attacker is a 300 pounds giant?

  • draw your pistol out and finish him

  • Comment removed

  • might even be better because of the less balance he will have

  • What if the guy has his head down? No one really looks str8 forward like that. He looks down at you and protects his throat in the process.

  • Hey, you are 100% correct. I am an Japanese Jujutsu practitioner and see your point. what works for me when the attacker tucks his chin and protects his throat is to grab their ear and pull. No matter where he pulls his head, the body follows pain. This will bring him close enough and give you an opening for a throat strike or a pressure point to break the hold, i.e. shuto to the philtrum. Thanks, Sensei Mike.

  • Whoa, that's so cool! A Sensei! Do you do martial arts in America, or Japan? When you do Jujitsu, what do you do if there are multiple opponents? I wouldn't want to take a guy to the ground if his friends are curb stomping me. What would you do? What do you think about Tae Kwon Do?

  • grab the guys nuts and rip em off, it works everytime.......you gotta fight dirty

  • What if you're fighting Lance Armstrong? Ha! I got your ass, checkmate!

  • not good compared to the specnaz way, grab there hand spin side ways you have in a arm lock and your out and now you have them

  • not a very good side head lock looks very loose

  • Absolute nonsense. Sorry but the reality is people who do martial arts cannot it apply it to real life fights...... the only thing it cud do is give u self confidence. This 'escape from a headdlock' is garbage

  • thats all good but what happens if he's actually got u in a proper headlock n throwing u about the place like a rag doll.... not 10% effort from 1 of ur m8s.... this wouldnt work agaisnt a tough lad in a street fight

  • what i suggest is do it quickly before you start getting punchedin the face and pulled around, and when you take your hand over instead of going to the throat claw at his eyes, he'll fall back and probably have reduced vision long enough for you to either run or kick the crap out of him :)

  • you have an exelent point there what if that happene but i think you should bring you hand over his head and just underneath his jaw pull and then grab his leg and lift him up and lose his balance then he would be on the floor and check out some vids on how to ground and pound because the fight isnt all about standing up and wasteing ur energy and you can win a fight in seconds :D

  • ok but what if he weighs 300 pounds and you are only 120 i dont think u will be able to do that

  • thank you , we do not trust internet , in kung fu .

    we have to take it from our a real sifu .

    in dragon style , freeing your self is worse than that , you better learn it .

  • this looks very helpful so if i ever get in a situation like that i know what to do

  • That will unbalance you and may case you to fall to the ground. A better way is to do the same thing but extending your arm more, forcing him back. You can also come around with your hand and pull him backwards.

  • IT WORKS!!!

  • no1 grabs loose like that

  • so like..once you make them fall..they just automatically let go of your head?lol, or do you just fall on the floor with them..still in a headlock..thus putting you in a worse situation lmao.

  • They probably start to panic as they notice they're losing balance.

  • hehe, like a DDT

  • its funny 2 watch him fall

  • this was quite clever :3 also u end ina hilariious position

  • the easy way to get out of a head lock is to smack them in the balls and keep hitting them

  • i think is better to grab them and grip until he faints because of the pain

  • once hes on the ground you can pwn him in any number of ways :D

  • depending on the height you might be able to knee in the tailbone

  • see Dr Ruthless for the best self defence on youtube.

  • Stuff that throwing on the floor shit, take your left hand and jam both your fingers into there eye sockets, kick them to the ground using the nuts as the kicking target, then pour ammonia over there whole body to remove any of your DNA to avoid prosecution. Consider cutting there tongue out to be on the safe side, this method will not require spending years going to crappy martial arts lesson. All you need is about 1/2 litre of ammonia per person. Job done.

  • ...Well this is for protecting yourself...not ruinging the guy/girls life..

  • You protect your self in two ways with this method no prosecution and no evidence. Plus anyone attacking deserves to get smashed up properly not just thrown to the floor where he/her can get right back up, so first rule of street fighting, should be always smash em up if they attacked you, especially if they think they are some martial arts expert, tear there eyes out, and cut there tongues you know the drill just don't forget the ammonia.

  • hahahaha your such a ass, made me laugh so much

  • The bad thing is people have different type of headlocks and this wouldnt work.

  • What if he was a big guy?

  • then your fucked!

  • wat i do is do everything he said but before the sweep try to with ur hand get him in the neck some how or when u try to sweep him  try kicking him lol. or kill dat dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • porfavor no lea esto (me obligaron)

    el 13 de octubre de 1991

    un niño llamado nick se tiro de un puente devido a problemas familiares

    si ya leiste esto deves copiar y pegar

    en otros 5 videos mas o si no

    nick vendra por toda tu familia

    haslo o moriran porfavor hasme caso

    yo lo lei y lo hise & si es verdad..la familia de un amigo murio hace una semana

  • This is actually a pretty good technique, quite similar to what is taught in my school. If I may, I would suggest a preliminary strike just before the take down. What strike you ask...take your pick. If you look, there are multiple options. Keep up the good work and God bless! Peace

  • dude when my cousins try to fight me they always do this........now i know what to do when they try it again =] lolz

  • i love ths its so useful on my school:P

  • Some people say MMA fighters would destroy an avg person in a street fight. for anyone that's been in a real street fight knows most real street fights attacks deal with weapons like a knife or any other deadly weapon. If you don't have real weapon defense skills to combat against that you are fucked. Most martial arts arent' pratical against attacks of this nature, because most martial arts are geared more towards sport now of days then anything else. Krav Mega though specializes in this.

  • I thought it was Krav Maga not Krav Mega (maybe a typo?)

  • yeah its krav maga

  • i like those moves ! very useful !

  • lol

  • That technique sucks and won't work.

    I would like to see him get out of one of my headlocks.

  • at 1.10 when you bring your arm over his head you might as well hit him a slap with your elbow b4 takin hin down

  • as you push him back wont you go back with him?

  • Its useful... being from the hood MMA works...thats well if you have a cage,clock,ref,gloves,padded mat,etc.....

    MMA is a sport" Rules"

    Hood "No rules" You use whatever you got.

  • what if their legs are behind yours?

  • then you would move your feet behind theirs wouldnt you, a SIDE headlock so their feet r inline rougly with urs, not too hard to get your foot behind them

  • who the hell does a side headlock with their feet behind the one they are doing it on? try to do it, then you'll see it wont work, and then you wont need this move...

  • For anyone watching this, these techniques are crap and dont work. These guys are just some posers who have watched too many kung fu movies. If you want to learn self defense learn krav maga or MMA.

  • I do practice two different MA five days a week, so i do know what I'm talking about.

    It's not about watching movies Johnny, when you're in a self defence situation you have to get your way out LEGALLY and QUICK. MMA centres very rarely teach this.

    Getting in a brawl will just get you arrested.

  • Good god youre dumb. Dont you realize that MMA fights last long because there two skilled combatants who train hard and have good cardio. In a street fight an MMA fighter would destroy an ordinary person in seconds. You have no common sense.

  • Hey idiots, the point is to do it fast. If you are getting punched or cant escape, then you are too slow. I swear, all you fucken idiots come in here like experts and act like you know everything.

  • ummm...no this might work if they just stand there and wait for you to do something but in real life you would be catching some punches to the face.

  • It will work if somebody isnt expecting it.

    Like, if your in school and some dick comes up to you and headlocks you, they will think like "Oh yeah what a nerd", they wont be expecting you to knock them flat on their back.

  • this guy rulez
