For those of you who don't know, Johnny Gyro was one of the greatest fighters of our

time. He carries a big rep. If he says do it like this, then you should listen. By the way Johnny was super quick. And he could come in fighting at a light weight or heavy weight. That means he could play tag with you or straight bust you up.

I hate to say this because the instructors are very well intentioned, but some of this is not realistic. For example, when he was choking Lu, what she was taught would never happen if the choke were sudden and hard. The first thing she would do would flinch, bringing her hands up to his arms. The brain sends a signal to remove the choke first. You can do this by moving his hands across your shoulders, as taught in Krav Maga.

Much more effective for self-defense is Krav Maga.

Woman should have the right to wear what ever they want and not have to worry about it.

I rate this 5/5 and favorited it. Thanks for posting this.

I like the 2 fingures in the throat idea because it does work. I encourage you to try it on yourself press hard enough to feel the pressure and try to speak. It hurts and causes a choking reaction. I have several years of hand to hand military combat training and this is one of there methods. The use of pressure points works extreemly well when practiced.

Just something about strangulation like the one in the film, I strongly unbelive that the two fingers on the throat at the opponer will work and cut his air supply of, that's bogus. Instead reakt in opposit direction if the case is like that because in that direction he have no power at all and have to chase the victim. If the victim lies on the ground getting strangled push the opponent in the chest with both hands, his streanght is directed downwards and he will have no power backwards.

kick in the nuts is also easy and effective... :P
