Getting Out Alive

Sometimes you can land yourself in some pretty bad situations and most of the time there is a way to back out or prevent the situation from occurring in the first place as long as you can lose the pride but there are times when when your backs up against the wall, your cornered and you can either crawl up into a ball and hope they don't do allot of damage or you can fight your way out as a last resort. Depending on your surroundings here are some tips that may save your life.
  1. Don't travel alone; You are less likely to be attacked when you have more people with you.
  2. Run; For some people running is the last thing on their mind but it is the most sensible.
  3. Make a scene; Call for help, scream, do whatever you can to attract attention.
  4. Fight; If you are in genuine danger use whatever you can find at your disposal to cause pain for your attacker but don't just stand there, after you are sure they are down for the count, run and get help.
Use long quick jabs and shin and push kicks to keep the attacker at bay, don't try any Bruce Lee stunts because they are likely to leave you off guard and vulnerable unless you are a professional martial artist, anything that can increase the distance between you and the attacker is good and if they have got a hold of you or are up close, use your knees, elbows, eye gouges, stomp on their toes and if they are male hit them in the gonads.

These tips are only to be used as a last resort and you may not always come out on top when you fight back, use all of your other options first before ever fighting.
