Ok, I only took one bare-handed self defense class and that was 15+ years ago.

Wasn't there some sort of self defense move where you tumble forward, pulling you're assailant over with you, slamming him head first into the ground?

I remember the technique, it wasn't too difficult for a bigger guy like me to unbalance someone.

They told us it was a lethal move because it would likely break the guy's neck, and while we practiced the grab and pull, we weren't allowed to roll because we would fuck someone up.

Anyone else with more recent experience (and training) want to chime in on it?

That was a fun class, 80% women.

That's where I learned the first rule of knife fighting.

You are going to get cut. Avoid knife fighting if at all possible.

More than enough time to rip a pair of balls right off the body.  You'll have to decide if continuing the choke hold is worth it as soon as you feel your scrotum begin to rip.



If I'm choking someone I'm most likely doing it to save my own life at this point. So yes, I'd rather walk away with no balls than die.

Besides, If I'm trying the choke I should have control of their body with my legs most of the time so I find it hard to believe that someone can get a good hold on my balls through my pants while I'm tightly pressed up against them and locked in.

All the defenses are contingent upon creating space. Do whatever you have to do to create space to turn into it. You want to grab the balls? You need to create space so you can reach the balls. You want to do some of the slick looking "Self Defense Moves"? Look at them, they all start with space, which lets the guy look slick. The guys who kinda get it will start the move with something that's supposed to create space (usually some stupid slap or poke that wouldn't actually create space unless you were being choked by your little brother over the last piece of pizza), the guys who REALLY get it will show you how to create space with body movement that the other person cannot easily control or avoid.

I'll give you broken fingers in order to put you unconscious and then you're at my whim.



It's all about position.





How 'bout an ear? Unless we're friends and goofing around, putting me in a choke-hold means I will be tearing things off your body ricky-tick. As for gutting out a broken finger... I don't believe for an instant that you will maintain the same level of hold on me as I am breaking your finger. You may not release entirely, but it'll be enough for me to get air and blood to my body and likely out of the hold before you can re-apply the pressure.
In a fight, you don't really feel broken fingers and things like that very much. Hell, I spiral fractured two of my toes half way through one of my brown belt tests. I completed the test and also uke'ed for my friend with those broken toes. I've fought through broken fingers and a nose.



My point was, you're wasting time playing checkers when your opponent is playing chess. Breaking a finger or ripping off an ear is not going to change your situation.



An eyeball is a different story, but they are next to impossible to access from that position...hence, me saying,"Position is everything".

Tori (attacker) will either kick your knee out and off balance you to your rear and maintain superior position OR he will drive you down and stick to you like glue and you won't have room to generate enough power to do anything.



Keep in mind you have 5-7 seconds AT MOST against a clean RNC.

That's true. And the technique as sloppy and poorly finished. But, the grabbing the arm and stepping around behind is one of the better first steps. You're not likely going to throw a larger, stronger opponent over you like they do, though. There are better ways.



The guys advocating depoying a knife have the best idea. You better be able to do it fast, though and under duress while being thrown about and off balance. It's a good thing to practice, if you carry a knife for defense. It's not as easy as you might think.

By the time you find an eye to gouge or find that knife you'll probably already be unconscious.

The way I've been taught on the ground, its worked great for me in competition:

1.) Protect your airway, grip the arm that is over or around your neck and start pulling with both arms.

2.) Bridge as high as you can and drive your shoulders/neck past his. At this point most of the choke's pressure has been relieved and you aren't in much danger of going unconscious.

3.) Lean towards the side that the arm that is on top of your throat is pointing until your shoulder is touching the ground.

4.) Rotate into your attacker until your opposite shoulder is on the ground. At this point you are free.

5.) Take the mount.

If you lean into the wrong side the escape is a little more difficult, I can explain that if anyone is interested.

If someone comes up behind me and is stupid enough to try to put on a choke hold from the standing position then I'll change levels by dropping with knees bent, raising slightly to load up my opponent and taking them over my shoulder for a seoi nage or koshi garuma type throw.

Then again don't listen to me, keep trying to find that edc knife or gouge those eyes I'm sure that'll work wonders. I've fought with broken fingers/toes, didn't notice it until after the match.

Well if someone strong sinks a proper rear naked choke onto you, you will probably not be able to do a fucking thing about it before passing out. In Judo I've gotten people on their way before tapping in a couple of seconds. Always tuck your chin into your chest if you feel anything wrapping around your neck. But if they haven't sunk it in all the way I prefer to bend forward, step behind and grab their legs, pick them up and bodyslam all 250lbs of me on top of their ribs. Works best on pavement. If that doesn't work, I'll use old faithful I carry with me always

This goes back to my point.  ridgerunners video illustrates exactly the point I was making.  An experienced grappler is going to take you to the ground and sink hooks in to tie up your body very quickly, not just stand behind you in an upright position.  There is no one 'one size fits all' technique to counter, because it depends alot on your attackers skill level and commitment to do bodily harm.  You really have to look at it from two ends of the spectrum, is your attacker a well trained BJJ fighter, or just some thug on the street.  Chances are they are the latter, in which case headbutts, eye gouging, and knee strikes just might work.  If its the former, as has been previously stated the only true defense is to not get put in that position in the first place.

Even if they didn't let go, and you went out after 8 seconds, they're going out after 18-20 seconds. You'll have the advantage of being able to wake up. However, you need more tools in the toolbox for varying circumstances. Refer to the above story about the friend who thought it was funny to
choke people. Knife would not have been appropriate in that situation, but being able to turn out of it and repaying the favor with a nice slap to the nutsack might be equally humorous. For non-deadly force encounters (ie, just some asshole grabbing you from behind, "schoolyard" fights, etc) you just need to create space to get turned into them, at which point you have a new set of problems, but the immediacy of being choked is no longer one of them.

Tactics are irrelevant if you do not practice them regularly. A proper choke will put you out in a matter of seconds. If you are not trained to react immediately you are going out. It is also a fairly odd/painful experience that will more than likely completely remove your ability to think if you are not used to it.

In short, don't get put in a choke hold or you are done. Focus on putting two of your arms on one of your attackers to prevent the choke from being locked in and get out of that position as soon as possible.

I keep my knife on a pocket behind the side cargo pocket in my cargo shorts so I could easily access it. Not that it matters. You need both hands to prevent the choke from being locked in and if that fails you are going to be out before you can deploy and use the knife.

I've seen the attitude/delusion hundreds of times. "I'll just shoot you" "I'll draw my knife and carve you up" "I'll gouge your eyes/bite you/rip your balls off".



It's good to have a gun, knife, know how to fight like an animal. If you don't train in situational awareness, hand to hand, gun retention, grappling those other tools are very likely next to useless in real world scenarios against anyone who remotely knows what they're doing.



If you're up against an idiot loser who is after an easy target, you'll probably be as ok using your gun or knife as you would be with harsh language and swinging your purse.



I prefer to not delude myself, nor train to the lowest threat possibility. I don't carry a .22 and use the logic "Well, I wouldn't want to get shot with that". I carry a 9mm or .45 and use the logic "This weapon, as a reasonably concealable tool, will give me the best chance of stopping the biggest meanest SOB I could come in contact with".



How many of those who advocate using a knife have EVER...EVEN ONCE practiced drawing that knife and deploying it while being attacked...much less attacked compotently with good technique and not some half hearted roughing up by some instructor, to whom you've paid money and he wants you to feel good about what you're "learning"???

Best defense... Don't give them your back.

If it is a sneak attack from behind, turtle the kneck, lift shoulders and roll forward This has to been done as soon as you feel the slightest touch.

When a RNC is applied ( someone who knows what they are doing) there are precious seconds before panic sets in, the rest is darkness.
If it's in a controlled environment the head ache comes next ( after sleepy time).

All this knife, nuts and guns ain't gonna help.

There are as many counters to choke holds as there are choke attacks. But they all have some basic across the board defense applications.

* Protect your airway by tucking your chin
* Identify the weakest point of attackers choke application
* You want to gain leverage as you start to escape.
* Be as explosive as possible

* Learn to properly strike soft targets.
Such as.. Instead of punching the nuts with a closed fist, pendulum strike the groin with the top of your hand below the web of the thumb and pointer finger. You'll get deeper penetration and gain a more dynamic response from your target.

* Learn body mechanics.
Joints can only move certain ways. Force a joint to move beyond that causes disruption. Also the ring finger is the weakest finger of the hand and can be easily  peeled away from the attackers grab attack, no matter how big and strong, my 6yo daughter  can defeat his grip. Once you peel away that finger the hand must follow

When i was bouncing i had some fool try a choke and i used a defense from Bas Ruttens SD video to great effect. In the video it was actually a full nelson escape, but it worked just fine.My victim came up behind me during an altercation and attempted a RNC. I stepped to the side and stepped my right leg behind his left leg, curled my body down and grabbed a handful of fabric at each of his knees, then picked up his legs. He continued to hand on to my neck so i dropped him with my elbow (and my substantial weight) driving into his rib cage. He was done fighting. i dont know if/how bad he was hurt.

You can see what i mean in this video (skip to 4:05 for what i am talking about). Note, this video is a 6 minute humorous highlight reel of a full length DVD, its funny to watch be is light on actual content. Just youtube "bas rutten self defense" and you will find the full version
