Wow, that's actually amazing. You can use this no matter what condition you're in; even if you're tired after a long work day, or physically exhausted walking out of the gym at night. This eye jab is so useful. Thanks!
I've taught this for a number of years as a preemptive strike followed up with a flurry of follow up punches. Nice to know that I was on the right track in my mindset.
I got another one, if you're on your back trying to put someone in a triangle choke in a self-defense situation and they're resisting, you can jab the eye and you may get them distracted for the opportunity to finish your submission
Goodness gracious, all this “what if” junk based on super liberal places like NYC and California. Craig Douglas is THE man and I am definitely gonna listen more to him than base my self defense on what lawyers do in super liberal locations. Mess with or threaten my family and liberal lawyers aren’t what I’m thinking about. Better to battle an idiot lawyer than bury a family member.
I have the utmost respect for Craig Douglas and his experience. However, if you aren't law enforcement, don't do this. I have a personal experience where an assailant was verbally threatening myself, my wife, and my infant child in NYC. He verbally threatened violence towards me and my family and when he closed in with fist raised I maced him (with legally possessed mace under the % OC that NYC stipulates) and called 911. Guess who ended up in handcuffs? Me. I spent months of uncertainty and thousands of dollars in legal fees to get this arrest off of my record for following advice like this. True story. Now I understand NYC is at the extreme end of the spectrum when it comes to self defense laws. I'm sure that if this happened in my home state of SC that the officer would have taken my statement and shook my hand before hauling the other guy off to jail. But this video can't be taken as universal advice.
So what you are saying is that you should have waited for that guy to attack your family first? I'd say you made the right decision regardless of the troubles you incurred after the fact. I'm glad you were able to have it made right.
The problem is that you were in the Communist Shithole of New York. The only legitimate reason for being in New York is when Civil War II breaks out and it’s time to Kill A Commie For Mommy.
Yep, agreed...the problem is the libtard idiot “logic” of NYC....not some method or decision to defend yourself. I hate that happened to you but ANY time someone even hints aggression towards my wife/kids/loved ones then it’s beast mode and they are gonna catch hell. Battling idiot lawyers is better than burying a family member.
shall not be infringed. free men do not ask permission. you'd advocate willfully being a victim instead? you'd sit there and let your wife and child be attacked because you're afraid of what MIGHT happen later in some courtroom?
Thank you for this. My grandma doesn't stand a chance now!
2:58 Glad he addressed the legal issue of striking first

I never thought I'd hear an Alien reference in self defense. I have a new respect for Craig.
Great piece of kit...free,effective,easy. Thank you trigger time
Fantastic information.
I’m new to this great video
Moe Howard approved
Been in the 'Wild Wild One Hunits' aka 'ChIraq.' Thank God you made it, and because you did we can trust these techniques will work
Big fan of Southnarc but this time he had me at 'Facehugger'. Game over man, game over.

Does fear play any role in effectiveness of pre-emptive striking? Like when I'm too fearful, then I tap into aggression.

"Dot the eyes".
There's a lot of parallels between this and what I learned back in the day in JKD.
Sir why did u beat him black and blue... 🤷 He poked me in the eye..
What do you do if the bad guy is wearing glasses. What’s the technique for that?
I learned that one a long time ago from the three stooges
Ah...wise guy eh?!?!?!?
Should have named this move the "Alien Face Hugger" Craig!
Excellent,grasshopper

Bruce Lee popularized the eye jab, as well as the straight lead. Work on the straight lead folks... and don't telegraph it.
This isn't the Miyagi-Do way lol

Why did you go to that toilet anyway?
Stay home.Nothing to see there,it's a toilet.
Bruce Lee would be proud of you guys....lol
This will earn you a ass whooping if not executed perfectly.
