just punch the throat, its like your doing foreplay... geez

[alexoidztube]

Actually, punching the throat would be less effective than two fingers stabbed and pressed directly into the windpipe. Yep- the demo here is showing it very soft- not how it'd be done for real, possibly because the woman doesn't want to be covered in vomit from the technique!

[fearlessfighter2006]

i get you but specially in a high speed fight if you missed you may break your fingers right? or your opponent could grab your small joints"fingers" and break them id still go for a car key, punch or elbow as ive used it. :)

[alexoidztube]

In a high speed fight, possibly. But in this instance, if someone is trying to strangle you- they have both their hands occupied- giving you the time needed. I'm not saying this is the no.1 technique- it's just a really simple one- and simple is good unless you're highly trained. I learnt at least 8 different ways to deal with just this strangle in Ju Jitsu. Keys or a lighter or a pen or a kubaton would add pressure and reach, of course- if they were handy.

[fearlessfighter2006]

yeah ur right but ofcourse the most effective is the ones that can't be ignored by mental... so give something that does mental pain one is kick to the groin another is ofcourse wrist locks... eye gouges, fish hooks something that would instantly and completely stop the person and you still either have the option to beat him or run away and get help... then beat him. :) but yeah your right. :)

[alexoidztube]

yep "rearrange their focus" as one instructor used to say! putting an aggressor in pain usually stops them, of course, in J J (like many martial arts) you use pain to make the aggressor go where you want them to so you can deliver a throw, strangle or well aimed strike.

Personally, it's great if someone grabs me in any way as it allows maximum opportunity to apply Ju Jitsu. Knowing key pressure points is also useful for very close up where you have time to use them.

[enjoyitbro]

If you gave a good punch in the throat thats very effective

[enjoyitbro]

I was just about to say that. a punch in the throat will work much better than two fingers

[fearlessfighter2006]

also you can break your fingers if your target moves.

I really hope you don't make money selling this shit.

[Schalke04kuranyi]

thats 20 bucks for a self defence guide, that will probaly get u killed in real life.

[alexoidztube]

If you want to add to the effect of the two finger poke- when the fingers go into the gap bend them downwards- another reason to turn away is that the person will almost certainly be sick!

[el14deltabl0n]

who the fuck would think of doing that in that moment

[alexoidztube]

I learnt this in ju jitsu- it will work- obviously you do it with much more aggression than this video shows. You cannot expect to do any self defense at all without practicing it, as you get better, you make the attacks harder and more realistic and you learn to defend without panic and with appropriate aggression.

[sassa12489]

I think I'd turn those two fingers into five balled up ones.

[alexoidztube]

The reason you use 2 fingers is for greater reach and you want to put all the pressure on your attacker's windpipe- a punch wouldn't be as effective.

[caseywrestlingfan]

Dude, you don't know shit about jui-jitsu. If they really show you that shit at your gym, you need to go to another place. They aren't teaching you real jui-jitsu, they're teaching you rape prevention.

[alexoidztube]

Think what you like- but, if you'd like to take on the 8th dan instructor I had, you're welcome!

[f0ngtasticXD]

@alexoidztube Well-spoken and very respectful. I agree as another martial arts practitioner.

[psychoxander]

Done appropriately, that could,

to a lesser degree, momentarily gag the attacker

(as I learned through self-application)

or, to a greater degree, crush the attacker's windpipe

(as I learned in a Batman comic sometime near '96 or '97... presumably in fourth grade)

[stephluvspollito]

oh yeah,like thats really gonna work!!

[rhod111]

lmao

[wulf203]

turn sideways first preferably

[lovesherls]

yea sideways den swing ur elbow against his arm..like the normal elbow fight.
