Self Defense Situation - What Do You Do? - Part 44: Use What You Have For Self Defense

Welcome back to Self Defense Situation - What Do You Do? - Part 44. This is a series of posts where we talk about different situations and what you can do to protect yourself in that situation. When someone attacks you, the attacker can have weapons or he can pick up something and attack you with that.

If you are in a situation where you do not get a chance to talk and calm down the attacker and he starts attacking you, you have to be fast to defend yourself. Yes, most of the time, the attackers have leverage. They get to choose, but you do not get to choose the fight.

Still, you can do a lot of things to protect yourself like Use Your Surroundings To Defend Yourself and use what you have as a weapon for self defense.

I have made a post recently where you see the attacker attacks on the stage. Let's watch the video again and see what he can use over there to defend himself. All video credit goes to Nick Drossos.

In this situation, the attacker is aggressive, he punches and picks up the microphone to attack the guy. When someone hits you, and he gets anything, he will use that to attack you more. Here the attacker uses the microphone. The guy steps back as a defense. This gives the attacker another chance to attack him.

It is better to move forward and get in to stop the attacker from hitting with a stick or microphone. Somehow, you cannot do that for the first time, you should get in next time. So what can be used as a weapon to defend that attack?

There is a chair on the stage. He can definitely pick up the chair and use it to defend the attack. And at the same time, he can counter-attack with the chair. Or, he can use the chair to move the microphone in another direction and step forward to counter-attack.

The attacker grabs the chair and throws that towards him. He can do the same thing without giving the attacker any chance to do that. What would you do in this situation? Please feel free to leave your comment below.

Thank you so much for reading this post. Stay safe. Always be happy!
