Welcome to the Martial Arts Journey UA-cam channel!
My name is Rokas. I'm a Lithuanian guy who trained Aikido for 14 years, 7 of them running a professional Aikido Dojo until eventually I realized that Aikido does not live up to what it promises.
Lead by this realization I decided to make a daring step to close my Aikido Dojo and move to Portland, Oregon for six months to start training MMA at the famous Straight Blast Gym Headquarters under head coach Matt Thornton.
After six months intensive training I had my first amateur MMA fight after which I moved back to Lithuania. During all of this time I am documenting my experience through my UA-cam channel called "Martial Arts Journey".
Now I am slowly setting up plans to continue training MMA under quality guidance and getting ready for my next MMA fight as I further document and share my journey and discoveries.

"Well thats reasonable, it's really hot in the summer here in Australia..." such a Ramsey Dewey thing to say. Pure gold. 🤣🤣🤣
Oh COME ON! Matt was the only one being realistic and he did well! Do you think if something like this happens it would happen with the door wide open!? Those 3 Pts for Matt broke my heart !
Seth made the best move by far in breaking up with her.
10 points for avoiding future scenarios.
I like how Ramsey is the biggest roleplayer of them all. You could tell him he is portraying a wizard and he will try to be that wizard.
Ramsiel Day-Lewis
“Was I the only one there who was legitimately concerned about my job in that scenario?” Ramsy had me rolling with that line! 😂
Now I understand when they say Ramsey is more Ramsey that they expected :v
I would probably have not realised what was being suggested until pretty late myself (except for the fact that it was a scenario). Like I have legit been told I have been on dates before and not realised it was a date. That would make it much harder to stay safe in this scenario.
Ramsey is like an anime protagonist who only cares about becoming the very best and would not notice women throwing themselves at him.
Yeee lol. I was thinking the same. In my earlier years when I didn’t have much cash I would have probably banged her to keep my job even if she was uglier irl.
Makes me wish Ramsey and Master Wong could be friends. I'm not sure how this is at all related.
Ramsy not picking up on the flirting until she was practically sitting on him was hilarious
Everyone was in his shoes once
Tbh it would have taken me long to get it as well . But hanging around with a lot of girls you start to get faster than you realize 😂
Well it was a rather warm time of year 😂
ramsay is basically how i would react lol i would be extremely confused
Am I the only one here who would sleep with her to keep my job?xD
DUDDEEE!!
The 3rd scenario is BY FARR THE MOST UNDERRATED ONE IN THE SERIES.
Hats off to the guy who came up with it.
This is what truly holistic self defence means 🙏
Jeff Phillips is the brilliant mind behind the scenarios 😊
I was low key hoping for Seth landing a fade to black ending
Yes running away is usually the best self defense. But deescalation is just as important and being able to calm people down. Having worked as a security guard I solved 90% of all “threatening” situations with talking calm but strict. One thing they have not touched on yet is a thing that happened when I was working at a hospital as a security guard late at night. I found a drug addict in the church room and he was sleeping and I could see he was high as fuck with needles everywhere. I was going to remove him out of the hospital when I noticed he had a machete just beside him. So instead of taking him out myself i locked him in the room and called the police and waited for them to bring him out. Locking someone in and wait for assistance is also very good in self defense situations.
I've been in a very similar situation in the past, and I lost my job because she cried wolf right after. Managment didn't even listen to my side of the story. This is a very real scenario for men that we don't hear too much about. It's much more difficult to navigate.
I have had that 3rd scenario IRL but it was one of my employee coming on to me. It's all about disengage the situation.
MJ the "Girlfriend" @ 8:25 "I thought you were Sensei not Sensitive!" 🤣😂 She deserves an Oscar
She's a fascist homophobe
Mike truly earning the 'icy' name. That was some cool-headed exit excuse there man. I'm in awe
He hit her with the cold shoulder.
Meh. So unprepared. Every one of these would have gone better if he led with a flashbang. Maybe tear gas for the office.
"excuse" ahahahah
@@kd5nrhYeah, but realistically, in an actual zombie apocalypse, or any "apocalypse" for that matter, VERY FEW people are going to be ready, or prepared in any way, let alone prepared enough to have flashbangs to clear rooms and take down buildings. 99.99% are going to have whatever is on their person when the SHTF. Lol just sayin...
Lol Jeff learning from the knife fighting robbery scenario is hilarious. "So I could have fought him?" 😂
Seeing Rokas and Ramsey completely missing the cues in the third scenario for the longest time was just hilarious.
I didn't miss the cues, I just thought she had killer intentions 😄
@Pa Mu 😢
@@MartialArtsJourney Were you picturing some "Basic Instinct" scenario where she was gonna come on to you and then start stabbing you with the pen when you turned her down? 😆
@@MartialArtsJourneyOh she had killer intentions alright 😂
Would have been way funnier if one of them actually said “sure, let’s entertain this” 😏😏
I initially thought Matt's response in scenario 3 of using a binder to shield himself was hilarious and ridiculous (c'mon, she's coming at you with her charms, not a knife), but after some more thought, it actually made a lot of sense since it allowed him to frame without actually coming into body-to-body contact with her.
I think he might have been picturing other scenarios and was ready to grab that binder anyway. It was locked in his mind so he went for it :D.
He was shielding his eyes 😅
Well... You do not want to be sued by harassement so better not touch her.
Id say its smart . Not touching her he left smoothly
Icy Mike's solution for the final challenge is freaking genius! I'm going to use that if i ever find myself in a situation like that
Then you open the bathroom door and there's a giant poop-man.
He's used to women throwing themselves at him
Hard 2 Flirt
After I saw the second person do that scenario, I immediately thought "what's a reasonable sounding excuse to get out of the room? Oh yes! I gotta take a piss!" 🤣
Looked a lot like a low budget porn scene, u know
I love how Jeff told his “significant other” to “shut the fuck up”
Fr Jeff handled it perfectly
if u love someone , sometimes u need to shut them up
It was happy d3 ticket man that told her that. Jeff just said you go over there
Love Mike's look to the camera like Jim from the Office. Ramsey's obliviousness had me dead though.
Haha, true. A very Jim moment
Dewey Ramsey was the man in this episode LOL!! MJ stole the show overall. Her improv is insane. Gabi's comments after Rokas came back cracked me up. I swear you have such a great cast of personalities in this series. I have been making my students watch this series as well.
That's why I think a season 2 would be difficult to do; the chemistry of the people who came worked out pretty well. With different mixes of people, it could go bad in an unfunny way.
@@killersalmon4359 It could easily become awkward. What if they didn't deny her flirting?
@@killersalmon4359 i think over time the contestants will form a stronger bond with each other after all of it
I think Ramsey being worried about his job, thats a very important point imo. Since you guys are immersed in the championship, you're conditioned to always fight or run from the fight as quickly as possible, but irl I think that would be a bigger factor in you decision-making
I agree. If you really had to worry about losing your job the way the judges scored that is all wrong. In that scenario if you walk out, what are you going to do file a complaint with HR? Not 1 person will believe you.
The thing is, if you go along with it, your jogb is still in danger, because if things go south, the other party will go to HR and claim you were the one who harassed them. The best solution is to get out and go to HR, and hope they actually do their job, and are not just there to provide a semblance of compliance.
Nobody asked to have their Union Representative present?
@@killersalmon4359 Agreed. I still think the best thing is to disengage immediately.
She was undoing her buttons and Ramsey was thinking, "oh, she must feel hot, I guess" 🤣
This episode was the best one so far. As much as I like these dudes punching other dudes, these scenarios were the most realistic and educational. Well done.
Round of applause for the improvisation by MJ(?) she did a fantastic job putting life into these scenarios.
100%!
Actors are gona act. And I really believed the roles she played.
I don't think she followed the yes and rule.
@@ValleyDragon What’s that?
Her actin' skills brought life to each scenario, she was a pro at that shit. She's quick witted with improv, she fairly cute, too. I thought you were sensei not sensitive had me lmao.
Good Lord, I REALLY hope this series does well enough to warrant a season 2! This is, by a very wide margin, the best event I've ever seen on this platform.
I love this episode because it teach us that self defense is not all about fighting. It is also about how to run away from a fight.
In reality self defense is absolutely NOT about fighting. If you have to fight, you missed a loooot of “windows”. This was so far my only problem with this series. This were the first real self defense situations.
Reading the scenario and deescalating.
Self defence is the art of making yourself safe. Fighting is just one, and very extreme, aspect of that. Sadly the one that if needed is one of the most dangerous if you get it wrong.
Verbal Judo is also a form of self defense ;)
Yes running away is usually the best self defense. But deescalation is just as important and being able to calm people down. Having worked as a security guard I solved 90% of all “threatening” situations with talking calm but strict. One thing they have not touched on yet is a thing that happened when I was working at a hospital as a security guard late at night.

Locking someone in and wait for assistance is also very good in self defense situations.
There'a something truly amazing in being able to create an ultimate self defense tournament, and actually addressing the many different nuanced and not necessarily violent aspects of self defense. Knowing how to fight doesn't guarantee you safety from sexual harassment or infections from crazed poop covered lunatics. As impressed as I was with every episode, this one really cemented to me that this tournament is looking at every aspect, really fantastic content
Oh yeah the next challenge really shows seriously western combatives takes self defense,
I love how Mike's initial reaction to seeing someone draped in feces is to kick him.
He's the only ex cop in there too lmao
@@thomasarmstrong3917He probably had flashbacks at that moment: Oh no - I thought I left all this behind me when I retired.
"I was gonna kick the shit out of you, but I see someone else did it first".
Points to Icy Mike for not kicking MJ
@@ValleyDragon haha 😂
The third scenario is genius I'm glad they include it.
I remember in my time when I was a lab assistant in the forensic lab at the University.
Sometimes female students or suppliers would go to the lab where I have my desk and when I was alone to avoid any kind of problem I opened all the windows and the the double doors and make sure to put the chair on the range of the security cameras.
I legitimately have no memory of that part where MJ went back into the theater to fight that guy again in the first scenario. I thought we just left. That’s so weird that I cannot remember that happening at all, and I’m seeing it on screen. Spooky.
Ramsey if this was a "blind date" I may have left her there too, lol. She wants to go back in for more...she can have at it! As a medical guy though Ramsey, maybe it was some of your jet lag and such, but if you're having trouble with memory, please go get yourself checked out. You may not be aware of memory loss. It seems evident that since the challenge you've not remembered several things. Not busting your chops man, just concerned.
@@chadlpnemtInjuries from my last professional fight in 2011 left me with memory loss (as well as partially blind, and with a hole in my forehead) I’ve seen a lot of doctors, none of them helped. I forgot friends, training partners, coaches, whole segments of my life. A big part of why I kept my UA-cam channel going after that fight was to catalog experiences and thoughts so I wouldn’t forget them.
All the sleep deprivation certainly didn’t help. The dudes taking potshots at my head when my eyes were closed certainly didn’t help.
When I say it’s spooky, I mean it. I watched my grandmother devolve into dementia to the point where she didn’t know who I was anymore. And the fact that I’ve been seeing the signs of that in myself for the last 12 years is just depressing. The idea that I could be looking at my own daughters as if they were strangers is all kinds of messed up.
@@RamseyDewey Sorry to hear Ramsey. It is scary. I wasn't sure you were aware but probably mentioned it in a video or two that I didn't see. Prayers up for you sir.
@@RamseyDewey don't think negatively Ramsey. You have such a big heart and you are a warrior. We don't only fight a war against others. There is a fight within ourselves as well. You are a warrior. Never give up. You are such an inspiration with your approach to life and fight
@@abuzittinjopjopsky Being prepared to meet death and the inevitable tragedies that precede it is not thinking negatively. It's a gift that separates us from the animals.
This was simultaneously the most hilarious and intense episode. Whoever wins this championship definitely deserved it!
Omg the way Seth casually blocked that thrown drink. xD
Truly an Avatar
Proof Karate is the best.
@@ValleyDragon All those hours of kata paid off! All those movements are burned into his muscle memory!
@@MartialArtsJourney The last drink bender
Not as cool as kicking a knife out of someone's hand but still I think he and Mike deserve a trophy or at least a plaque win or lose.
I love that there were much more nuanced scenarios this time, really made me think on the layers and complexity of actual self defense. People often forget everything before the escalation. The final scenario being especially tricky. Watching everyone go I was thinking "how would I get out this scenario with minimal confrontation but also not complying with what they want?" Great move by mike, kept his cool, truly earning the icy mike name.
Shoutout to MJ. Great acting and improvising. The heart of this episode
1)Mike listing all the bad things about his current health situation:
"I'm spending way too much time with Sensei Seth."
2) "I thought you were a SENSEI not SENSITIVE?!?"
That woman played a full time professional Aussie there.
3) I expected Jeff's ASRPS (auto stress response panic sprawl) to kick in during scenario 3.
"Was I the only one who was legitimately concerned to keep my job in there??"
Ramsey is so loyal to the premise man. Also people forget that he is a pure, innocent Christian family man so his cluelessness was incredibly funny to me because it's authentic.
The winner of this episode was clearly MJ. I wish her a good career in acting, she's super talented.
Well, I'm pretty sure he's Mormon, but yeah lol
@@DrGetgood Mormons are Christians. You are probably confusing the different teaching of Christianity.
The main are Catholics, Orthodox, Protestants. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or as most people call them "Mormons" are still Christians.
When she screamed "I thought you were a SENSEI not SENSITIVE?!?!" I pictured Seth dying a little bit inside.
Jeff bustin' out a sprawl would've been perfect. Haha
@@killersalmon4359 that was one hell of a line 😂
Ramsey had me laughing my ass of in this one! The look he gives at 18:27 when she touches his knee is priceless.
I'm not very sure who came up with all these scenarios, but I admire the sadism😂
Seriously though this series is the best thing to happen in you tube for a long time, love it! Keep up the good job and I'm really looking forward to the next episode
Thanks! Jeff Phillips is the person to praise/blame for the scenarios 😄
@Martial Arts Journey Well, he really is creative, gotta give him that. Let's hope he's up for a season 2 with more fun for us and torturous for you ideas😂
these episodes really show that the best martial art is knowing how to get the hell out of and avoid situations
@@rodpierce8468 I think it's more that making that critical "go, no-go" decision is so critical, and is so often neglected. It's all about making decisions under duress.
I think the interesting take away is that the hypervigilance towards violence and the tunnel vision about weapons, really endangered the competitors when it came to other hazards they could encounter, including the third scenario. Ready for a man to jump out of a cupboard and attack you but not ready for the boss to try to force you into cheating because of the power disparity. I also think that Ramsey should have gotten more points.
MJ is an excellent method actor and she really made the scenarios believable.
We NEED to have a season two of this. Some of the best youtube content ive ever watched. The challanges are amazin, the people are equally as good sometimes eaven better, the zombie one and mikes story was just out of this world, we Need more
Im gonna keep commenting this everywhere but Rokas had better get Master Wong for season 2. Or have Master Ken as the final boss or something.
Definitely. Maybe with an editing team too so the episodes can be put out faster
It makes me so sad that the episodes didnt do as well as expected, views-wise. This is the most fun I've had with youtube in years
I just wonder - they would have to create different scenarios cos now everyone knows :-)
This is probably the most entertaining show online. I love watching each of these guys respective channels and the only thing better is seeing them all collaborate. They definitely need to do more awesome projects like this. 👍🏽
Just that third scenario alone makes this the best and most relevant self defence challenge ever.
One of the absolute most important lessons of martial arts, should be to be able to set boundaries and be firm about them, without being aggressive. And from there, get out of uncomfortable situations. Showed this to my gf and we had a good talk about how serious and realistic this scenario is, for both men and women.
Well done, love the series, already looking forward to next episode!
This episode was very holistic. And I love the real world scenarios especially scenario III which happens more often than one thinks. Whoever came up with this challenge is a genius
Jeff Phillips 🌟
Loved this episode. Relatable self-defence scenarios that require situational awareness, picking up on social cues, and verbal skills. So important to learn. This series continues to be my favourite thing on UA-cam in 2023.
I'm speechless.... A lot of food for thought here!
Jeff Phillips and his team deserve a lot more attention and credit.
This is the best self-defense video on the internet.
I love that Ramsey is so wholesome that he just didn't recognise the flirting.
He is a Christian family man
Maybe the right solution was to protect yourself, but I love how Rokas saved both patients.
This series is so amazing. I really don’t want anyone to win. All of you are top notch. Ramsey not catching the flirting is a real thing and unfortunately the longer it goes on the more the aggressor feels that you are along for the ride.
Mike was a genius. Played along and then run for his life
Third scenario was smart and intensely well-acted. Wow.
That thumbnail though.
Thumbnail needs to chill out
So does poop man. Would hate to be in that situation irl.
@@MrRaccoon879 it's like that in jails and mental institutions
"That thumbnail though"... I'm oblivious, is this a compliment or the opposite? 😄
@Martial Arts Journey 😂 It's an amazing thumb nail. Icy Mike pulled off the perfect creeper guy. I'm a bit confused by some of the other responses aswell.
The mj office situation is cogent and helpful, Ramsey's reply is hilarious
You guys are covering such a diverse set of scenarios. Bravo to everyone who helped put this together.
"I thought you were sensei not sensitive!"
I'm done bro
🤣🤣
Mike's reaction to the boss situation was the best, but you'd definitely need a long term strategy after that.
yeah reporting it to hr
@@lusteraliaszero I agree. I was just saying that the situation is not done until you follow up and action is taken. If you don't follow up it'll only be worse in the future.
@@jatbatman fair enough, pretty true.
@@lusteraliaszero Google "HR is not your friend." She is the boss. She is who HR reports too, and she is who decides what HR does. She decides how much the HR employees are paid. She is decided when they are fired. She decides what reports are passed up to the owners, if any, and she can take action on the reports without notifying anyone above her in 99% of companies.
HR has one and only one job: make sure employees are being productive. If you are feeling bad about your boss, you are not productive, so you need to go. If you are threatening lawsuits against the boss, you are threatening lawsuits against the company, and you are threatening lawsuits against *them.* HR works for the company. They are part of the thing you are threatening to harm by reporting these things.
So HR takes the report, tries to trick you into signing away your right to sue, then fires you. There job is to get rid of troublesome boat rocking employees, not to help them. If you have a complaint against a co-worker and you think it can't be solved peaceably (and if it can, do it yourself) only go to HR *if you know you are more important than who you're complaining against.* HR only has one job, do whats best for the company, and if there is a spat between two employees the one that's most useful is the one that stays. Period.
It's xxxxing crazy how often people think HR is supposed to protect employees. They're not cops. They don't enforce laws. They don't make legal complaints on your behalf. They are employees of the company who are under the orders and control of the company for the benefit of the company.
@@lusteraliaszero or flipping her round faster than you can say hr and showing her who the real boss is
I feel like the fact that rokas recognized here comes a drunk man and tried to prevent the conflict before it even began, definitely deserves a bonus point for that
This has to be my favourite of the the episodes so far. To create such real-world worst-case scenarios while wearing protective gear is just genius. It really shows how wits come into play before physical alterations mostly, which for me is how close this show is to actual real-world confrontations.
All Hail, Icy Mike! Absolutely brilliant escape! Also, the first scenario brought up two very memorable experiences. I'm with Seth - we're DONE here.
I really enjoy Matt and loved his approach to each challenge here. It really shows how an ounce of communication and planning can be worth a pound of cure with thia kind of stuff.
I understand but you cannot plan selfdefense because the only things that happen to you are the one you did not plan for. But I agree with the rest.
@1individeo Agreed, hope for the best and plan for the worst.
Master Wong:
Theatre - Beats up the guy in the movie theater and either kills or intidates the witnesses.
Bathroom- heals blood guy with chi then gracefully, effortlessly disarms poop guy.
HR - gets laid😎
🤣🤣
I thought that work situation scenario was great. Not every self defense situation solution is physical and often can be deterimental. Using your brain and recognizing the situation is often key. Well done to Icy Mike.
I have no idea why these are not going viral. I love everything that has come out of the series. You guys are doing an awesome job
Honestly, I WAS gonna participate! But I accidentally glued my hands together, so I couldn’t make it 😓 On the bright side, I'm getting pretty good at typing with my nose! 👃🏻
Haha how the hell did you manage that?
Allright Jesse, I think they know you wanted to participate really bad from your comments on the last 5 videos.
After seeing this I would think you might start to be glad you didn't participate!
Karate training makes everything better! 🔥 Even typing with your nose
We hope to see you in Season 2!
You really changed my whole idea on self defense. Scenario 1 and 3 is something I will have to take into consideration
Ramsey is such a gem, I love this guy
They all are rare gems. Each in their own way. Just love Icy Mike ( such a mega chad dad. ). And sensai seth is just to damn funny.
Wow, the office scenario is fantastic. It really gives you pause with how one interacts in a profession situation. This is a great series!
The last situation was very creative and is actually pretty scary
"I thought you were Sensei not sensitive": absolute belter of a line😂
The editing and explaining the judges ruling was cool.
Okay MJ is the MVP of this episode.
I don’t know how you guys did it,but the show keeps getting better and better!
Shows about self defence would usually be one dimensional with all with the emphasis on defending against physical harm weather it be from multiple assailants or weapons,but you guys went deeper with the second challenge of the show!
Amazing work guys!
Lol Ramsay was like that dense anime MC in that office scenario.
Hahaha that was hilarious, but also kinda relatable, I tend to be quite blind to people flirting with me
Fucking incredible! Thanks for giving Jeff Phillips work a wider audience!
I'm in awe, how you two guys, Rokas and Jeff, are just throwing the new Gold Standard about everything youtube and self defense related out there!
Good job, everyone!
The last bit was unpredictable. But that happens but no one ever really think that it's a self-defense situation.
Interesting to see.
I love Ramsey "I really want to know why poop man stabbed blood man"
Third scenario showed how social awareness can save your ass too. Avoiding the potential problem is the ideal self defense tactic.
Mike lifting his hands to his face is the most sincere thing I've ever seen on the the intertubes.
He was in disbelief 😂😂
What part was that?
@@F.A.-- Scenario #2 - Bloody guy vs. poo guy. You can see Icy Mike do a Home Alone thing in disbelief (or disgust).
I just simply love Mikes solution to the third scenario
Icy Mike's resolution to Scenario III was COLD. Still hoping for his comeback.
One could say it was... ICY

Keep up the good work
@Martial Arts Journey I just want to say Rokas I’m super proud of you for pulling this entire season off with amazing quality, incredible fellow Martial Artist/UA-camrs & the editing is phenomenal!!! My only pet peeve is that I couldn’t experience watching all you guys in person as I live in Australia (I’m in Melbourne though, not Sydney were u guys shot 😢😂)
Hey rocus you should go train in Shaolin Kung Fu and you should tell Ramsey Dewey to do it too
Master Wong for Season 2 PLEASE
Could you guys try "Loser Loses" game from anime Bagi the Grappler?
"Bye. Have fun fighting each other." Lol. Priceless.
That third scenario was definitely the most challenging to navigate. So many things could go wrong, leaving you as the man the apparent bad guy and having to defend yourself legally. Icy Mike did an excellent job getting out of it. That scenario, or variations of it, do happen much more often than people think, and even in online versions.
I've been in a similar scenario virtually, where no possibility of accusations of contact could be made, but not physically. In my case, I reminded the person that I was already in a relationship and she got defensive, but stopped her advance. If she hadn't, I'd have just logged out and gotten out of the situation that way.
There is one defensive line that do work with most women: "I like men". She let go and does not claims to have been harrassed.
On the other hand It also works if you want to bang her as she instantly lowers her guard and allows conversation to happen.
@@1individeo taking notes...
Rokas this was the best one yet! #1 and #3 were such a great addition that I never would have expected. Hats off to you and the team
In the third scenario I would probably be acting like Ramsey, I'd be like "why is this woman acting so weird" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly this is the most comprehensive series on self-defense I’ve seen. It’s super cool to see how each of the participants reacts to the scenarios. Well done!!
What a performance by the actress - convincing and quick to adapt!
Yep, her acting made it. Very convincing.
Man this series really do be getting better and better! Specially by showing scenarios that u would not even imagine. It is offering things I didn't asked for but im loving it!! SUUUPER AMAZING JOB AND CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE PEOPLE INVOLVED ON IT!
Ramsey: "I REALLY want this job, though..." xD
scenario #3 bathroom break was such a gold move
*STANDING APPLAUSE* Guys this is incredible and goes very deep! Can´t wait for the finale and season 2!
Wow!! This should have been worth some points! I want this to be a Netflix series!!! Outstanding job!
"...bye, have fun fighting each other" 😂 mister Dewey is hilarious as always. Oh man😂😂😂
The second scenario, with the "poop guy" is also pretty commonly seen in the State Hospital environment in the US. Most of the patients are coming from corrections, so I'm not surprised that it's a scenario I've been in on more than one occasion.
Having worked in a mental health facility having to gather information quickly essential. Trying to keep yourself and somone else safe isn't always easy.
Ramsey has officially become my favorite martial arts UA-camr after that office scenario.
He's been my favorite even before this series.
Seth blocked that water and all I could think was "CHUBBY SURPRISE"
best episode of this series, couse you learn so much even just by watching.
Best episode so far, by a wide margin. And Mike is a genius with that last move
Everyone involved is so good and I love how everyone is embracing the spirit of the scenarios. I'm still rooting for Ramsey just because he seems permanently removed from reality.
This is actually an interesting thing. The cinema, they public bathroom and the interview show different ways how to handle difficult situations. I love how each of the contestants did it
Mike literally lifting and moving the girl was great :) And clueless Ramsey was just priceless :D
Honestly, the 2nd scenario is the scariest out of all because every attacker from every situation from episode 1 to now has a reason, where as the 2nd scenario does not. It is very unpredictable and easy to misunderstood.
Did someone get attacked?
Why is the dude covered in poop?
Why is the dude cutting himself?
Never know if those guys are on drugs or mentally ill. Could be both or they are just crazy.
2 is scary, but for a lot of people 3 is one of the most terrifying for a guy because it leaves you completely powerless. It is scary to be attacked by a big guy with a knife sure but there is a clear (if hard) way to be safe. But scenario 3...... I legit would be terrified if it happened because a) I am sure I would miss so many cues that I would end up in a scary position and b) I am in a true no win scenario in a lot of ways. As was said in the video for a guy my size, even a hint of an accusation and I am the assumed bad guy.
@@neodigremo Truueee. Now, I have no other words to say considering those 2 are neck and neck lol
Sensei Seth did a scenario-based self defense evaluation before this where he was placed in a situation that was conceptually like this (one where you aren't sure who the "good guy" is, and who the "bad guy", or whether there is a "good guy" at all). In these types of situations, things can go sideways real fast.
i freakin love this series all sorts of senarios that could happen in real life and we can see what martial arts are effecftive and how much strenght and size matter in all sorts of senarios this series diserves a milion vieuws
MJ is scarier than Poop Guy.
100%
One of the best self defense videos ever! This is such an interesting approach to self defense and thinking about and acting in real life situations. The best self-defense is to create a society in which situations like this do not occur
Rokas I am litteraly impressed by what you and your partners have done, this is really clever, scenarios are amazing and entertaining, point system 👍... Its an amazing job. 👍
Thanks! The praise for scenarios and scoring system goes to Jeff Phillips!
I really like the format, the idea, the "cast" and the venue and the editing is great.
The tasks are really diverse and we'll picked.
Hope you will do this again.
Wow when #4 came out I thought the series was about to end, but you are saying there is even more scenarios in the pilot season? That is an incredible amount of content, Rokas! Congratulations!
That was hilarious, especially Ramsey in three! And what a great solution Mike had for that, kudos!
