8:29 someone may have mentioned this, but if you know how guns work, the slide doesn't go back until AFTER the shot is fired. The slide goes back to re-chamber a new round. At BEST he is just stopping the 2nd round from chambering. He absolutely still got shot once!

@jamesfrankiewicz5768 2 жыл бұрын

It's possible to push a slide back, before the trigger is pulled, (that's how you eject a round), but you could only pull it off from that position if, and only if, it has a light recoil spring (definitely not a gamble I would take). Heavy spring, nope, the whole pistol will start to move, which will signal the gunman to pull the trigger.

@ncrshane1919 Жыл бұрын

@@jamesfrankiewicz5768 Actually with most modern handguns it is possible to push it far enough "out of battery" to make the gun unable to fire with very little pressure. It only takes a very small amount of movement, around 3mm to 5mm, to pull it off. This is a design feature to make sure the explosion of the round is properly contained, if the slide isn't locked to the barrel it can cause pressure to go backwards into the gun and cause damage or injury. It's actually pretty common for the person with the gun to accidentally do this by pushing the gun into the person they have at gunpoint. As with any technique for when you are at gunpoint, I see them as a nuclear option. If the person with the gun has given you the impression that they are going to kill you regardless, you don't really have much to lose by trying something.

@jamesfrankiewicz5768 Жыл бұрын

@@ncrshane1919 Depends on the caliber and manufacturer. I have a S&W99 in .45 that if someone were to try that on me, my wrist, elbow, shoulder, or torso will probably move from the applied force before that slide moves out of battery. Super beefy spring on that one. Baretta 92 (M9), yeah that one moves out of battery if you look at it wrong. Glocks, at least the models that I have handled (G17, G19, and G20), have pretty light recoil springs (at least in the first half of the movement… full compression on the G20 is fairly stout, though).

@ncrshane1919 Жыл бұрын

@@jamesfrankiewicz5768 Yeah, that's where it comes down to the "most" part. I have tried it with Glocks, M&Ps, My SD9VE, as well some Caniks, Springfields, and Rugers. All of those I was able to push out of battery by pushing on the end of the barrel. For most situations the gun you will be against will probably be susceptible to this. Granted I would still put that as a last ditch option, only for use if I'm gonna get shot regardless. It would be a gamble either way. Edit: That DUST dude is a moron and I'm not defending him, just stating that its not the dumbest thing he "teaches". A lot of his techniques wont work in the slightest.

@@athousandlives7231 Exactly. As soon as you whip out a gun-shaped knife, as soon as you use it, you'll be testifying in court NOT for self-defense, but for attempted murder, 1st degree murder, 2nd degree murder, or manslaughter. No one is going to believe you were defending yourself when you escalate something to fighting with a a stupid little knife like that which no one in their right mind concealed carries unironically. Not to mention, not many people realize that certain items, when looked at by a prosecutor, defense attorney, and a jury, will be a major factor that determines who's going to prison and who isn't, you or the attacker. With that being said, 90% of proclaimed 'self-defense' items you can buy online or in stores, are actually completely useless in either effectiveness, legal court cases, or both. No jury, attorney, or prosecutor will look at a fucking kubotan and go 'oh yeah I can totally see why you'd use that.' NO, kubotans, to them, don't look like anything practical for daily use that you'd understandably use for self-defense, they look like weapons meant for harming or maiming. Self-defense only applies when you do everything in your power to deter an attacker without the intent to kill or harm, but would only kill if absolutely necessary. Trying to play hero, and intentionally fighting the attacker and trying to hurt them isn't self-defense, that's called vigilantism, which is illegal when you consider battery, assault, homicide, attempted murder, manslaughter, etc.

This is how he is just straight up calm, imagine someone like that on adrenaline. Also, some men take a kick to the groin as a challenge, my father tried that when he was young against a bully. He took the kick and just smiled at him, then smashed his face in on the lockers.

I'm wondering if the original video had some voiceover that mention pressure points or pain compliance that Seth didn't play back for us. The entanglement in that technique works, and so does the takedown where you lift under the chin and throw to the opponent's rear. Any pain (like the pressure points under the jawline) are just added bonuses and not anything fundamental to the technique.

I trained gun defenses and disarms like if a gun was to your chest like in that one DUST video. One of the biggest things I remember is to give them what they want. It’s not worth risking your life for your wallet or your car keys. The only time you start fighting against a gun is if they’re trying to kidnap you. Never go to a secondary location and all that jazz. They explained that there are just too many variables, too many things can go wrong, that they’ll train you the best they can with the techniques that the organization found to be most effective, but there’s never any guarantee that you’ll make it out alive when your opponent has a gun or a knife even.

Actually in a scenario when you're being attacked with a knife,with literally no route of escape (or the one where you have to stand in defense of someone else,who you know isn't capable of keeping up with you during said escape),I think using your clothing is probably the most viable method of trying to deal with the danger if you do it correctly. If you take whatever outer garment you wear on your upper body off (the thicker the better ofc) and wrap it around your hand you can kinda use it to deflect and redirect the knife attack. Yeah,you still risk a thrust to the hand if you misjudge your parry,but it's still much safer to do it this way than with your bare hand (keep in mind that once wrapped around your hand,that piece of clothing will get a couple of layers thicker as opposed to it being just one layer spread across your entire body). You also get more space to work with when it comes to deflecting the blade. And if you manage to entangle the blade or the opponents arm into it,you'll quite likely either disarm him or even take the blade for yourself. Of course for being able to pull it off,you've got to have good reactions and proper knowledge of distancing so in short at least SOME experience with striking based martial arts (or a shitton of luck,but I wouldn't count on that) Of course all off that doesn't work with surprise attacks,in case of which you're fucked anyway,no matter what you do,but if a situation escalates gradually (but you're cornered,so to get away you'd have to get past the agressor anyway) so you have at least a brief moment to set yourself up,I can see it as a viable option

Your angry mostly likely because you don't realize you're allowing yourself to be frustrated and upset over the bad self-defense videos, don't give others a way to control you. I understand the frustration though, when you know martial arts its so difficult not to get upset about something you love, this is where Musashi comes in. ;)

While working in they talked very briefly about self defense in dangerous situations. They always said that while your defending yourself to always remember eyes and crotch. I think a lot of people forget that not everyone is a martial artist and that there are no rules in a self defense situation. Biting, spitting, aiming for the eyes, crotch shots, its free game, anything goes. The most useful advice anyone could ever offer to someone who doesn't or can't preform super sick martial arts moves is to remember that there are no rules, other than survive.

You can buy Kevlar hoodies, demolition ranch tested it out and it actually stopped bullets (I’d assume it would also stop knifes).

Soon as I saw that there were Self- Defense Videos on TIKTOK, I immediately thought “oh no, Seth is gonna tear them all a new one… or have a mental breakdown from the craziness posted”

I legit got into an argument on the video where the instructor is giving his students free head shots. Some people were trying so hard to justify it. One guy even told “I coach football players and we do stuff like this so they don’t flinch when they get hit. You must have never played football.” I haven’t but I am not as well versed in mental gymnastics as that guy.

12:20 The video is also CGI, the staff is rolled up in the weird capsule thing and therefore in full extension would have a thinner diameter toward the top and bottom but in the video it's the same.

They both have caffeine, same for hot chocolate. They all basically taste similar especially if you add sugar to drown out the bitterness

Stun guns are also very ineffective against a determined attacker because it is pain based and has no real stopping power. Especially a lot of the cheap ones. A taser is what's issues to police and is effective because it caused muscles to size up for a few seconds as well as it has range and some even have two shots. However it's also not super reliable in certain situations.

It's so cool seeing Sensei Seth talking about 6:06 back then , saying it wouldn't be practical in self defense. When jusy a little while ago he tried stunt kicking and learned this exact kick was able to see it had practical use.

As a woman, thank you for calling out the crap at the end. When you said it, I also noticed that the video with the baton-thingy at the end was fake. And as you said, that's just people making money of the fear of others by selling that crap that doesn't even work.
