That's why I always carry a pen with me, and I always wear a belt when going out there...he's so right about this 2 items...and both of these items are not prohibited anywhere you go in any situation, enough said !
Good tips, here is one more. Carry a pocket full of quarters in a strong pair of athletic socks. If you grab it by the open end (and knot it if you have time) you have made a very effective black jack. If an assailant comes after you, swing it hard and use it to crack his skull open.
People need to practice this under stress, then it will work Use sticks, clothing, mase, coins, etc.. As a self defense person, drilling with these objects makes your recall much better. Practice makes perfect.
Some people carry rolled up magazines secured with rubber bands to keep them semipermanent in place. If you do the same with a newspaper then wet it, you can wrap it around your hand to make a knuckleduster.
You're very correct, but in the moment of an attack, it's difficult to line a pen up with a punch. I'd advise stabbing them anywhere with the pen. Anywhere. As for coffee, it could be cold by the time you get attacked, BUT, any liquid in the eyes is enough to get away or jump on their head. If you can't physically protect yourself confidently, Carry a steel cartridge pen, and get some simple martial arts training. You'll be fine
yo make part 2, at the end of this one it got better and better... part 2: cables, phones, jugs, scissors, keys, dog leash ... (btw the one with the magazine was epic, wood stick analogy nailed it )
Though he makes some good points and I'm not an expert in unarmed combat or self defense but @9:26 it's actually the carotid artery (in the neck), the femoral artery is down the leg hence Femoral = near the femur... Of course both can lead to very significant hemorrhage (bleeding) when applied in the right position with the right technique! A pen can also be used quite effectively for pressure points (pain compliance) as well, like just like any similarly shaped thing for that matter, if that's all you have. Though I have had some training, I've always held the belief that 'if it (ANYTHING) can be moved it can also be used as a weapon". Use your imagination; keys, a pen like he mentioned, ladies- use your nails and swing that purse if that's all you have to escape that situation and yell! Read up on as much self defense as you can or take a course. It just has to do enough for you to get away...
About to go on a date the first time with a guy I don't for sure know is safe and I'm trying to find a way to defend myself in case. Thank you for your video!
Jim Livingston Yes. I was nervous since this was my first video. Of course I know the throat artery is the carotid. Afterward I noticed my mistake but didn't feel like re-shooting. I hope you can still find helpful info here.
Thanks for this great video! Regarding poking the person's arm bend with a pen (8:52), which can cause a fatal damage to him as it will hurt his artery, would biting the arm bend with your teeth (really hard so that he will bleed) work, too? I am just guessing, because it may damage his artery, too. If it works, I think it will be a really good way for a child to beat a kidnapper. By suddenly biting there hard, would it make the kidnapper bleed and faint soon?
Watch a video by Hard2Hurt about FLASHLIGHTS for self defence. Real eye opener. My country doesn’t allow me to carry any form of weapon let alone a gun, knife or mace. So flashlights are a must for me.
Striking the nerve on the side of the neck causes the vasovagal response which will temporarily paralyze/render unconscious an attacker. Any threat to life will more likely be caused by secondary trauma, such as Striking their head on the ground or other object while falling g. The initial strike is not, in itself, known to be fatal.
CaneFu, below is a good demo. ua-cam.com/video/b79p8Ks97ew/v-deo.html But it's not just as a striking weapon, it's something that has it's natural position up near the ear which is a ready postion for defense and offense but doesn't look aggressive. You can actually be on the phone or fake that you're on the phone.If you think you're being followed, you can act as if you got a call, stop, and look around as if you're talking and yet still look normal. Or you can put the phone in selfie video mode and see what's going on behind you without turning. If you're being in a bad position, you can fake answer your phone and say in a higher voice, "Hello, this is Detective Smith." and act as if your having a call with the police captain. That's not impersonating an officer but then you can get in trouble if you then give commands to those you're suspicious of by giving them orders. You can also throw a phone at their face to distract and then come in and strike. Some say the phone is too weak for self defense, I say if you slame the edge of the phone into someone, I don't care if it cracks because it will certainly inflict pain. I'm just saying to me, the phone is an option in many ways.
2fast2block: WTF? My iPhone costs $600 and the link you posted is to a moron suggesting I use my phone as a club??? Anyone attacking me while my phone is out most likely wants to steal the phone and he recommends I destroy my phone to defend it??? Think about it...the main reason people need to use self-defense is to keep from getting robbed....if you're this stupid then just resign yourself to being a victim, hand over your phone, and avoid the fight altogether! And if you break your phone then you can't call the police, or an ambulance, or a cab to get safely out of the area. What you recommended is NOT intelligent self-defense you imbecile.
CaneFu, you give meaning to the phrase, "Love thy neighbor as thy cell phone." Right, all thugs want is your cell phone. I can see why your life isn't much more than your $600 phone. at least your cell phone can do some functions because your brain can't. You, " Think about it...the main reason people need to use self-defense is to keep from getting robbed." Hey, you hear that women? If you're about to be sexually assaulted or are already being assaulted, just hand over your cell phone. That will stop it. Take the advice from a real self defense expert, CaneFu. Whatever you do, do NOT destroy your precious cell phone. Your life and limb are secondary. And to you morons who think they can be assaulted by any other reason except robbery, you need to check with CaneFu. He'll tell you to just hand your phone over or do what you can to protect it. UA-cam violent attacks and criminal assaults are just about all due to robbery, from the expert, CaneFu. Just ignore the umpteen vids and crime statistics showing assaults due to ANYTHING but robbery, and you'll be safe. You can trust CaneFu. To you UA-cam viewers, I'm so sorry for suggesting the option of your cell phone being used for defense. The very thought of it getting broken just about makes me cry. We all know that our life and limb is nowhere near the worth of a $600 cell phone. So glad that CaneFu came through with his vast knowledge and common sense. I have no idea what came over me for suggesting such a stupid thing.
2fast2block: Yes, you blithering idiot, according to FBI stats the vast majority of violent attacks are for robbery and one of the most common things that these thieves want are CELL PHONES because they can be sold for cash or traded for drugs. In other words, the best defense is to keep your phone hidden when in a questionable area rather than showing it to everyone as you suggest. A great reason not to break your phone (by using it as a fucking club) is so you can use it to call for assistance in the likelihood that you are injured in an attack you moron. Here's a better suggestion for self-defense....keep your phone hidden in your pocket and carry a Kubotan, Comtech Stinger, tactical pen, or small flashlight, any of which are easily hidden in your hand until needed and will make much better impact weapons than any cell phone and they each only cost $10. Yes, you are completely ignorant when it comes to self-defense and have no business giving advice to anyone so STFU when it comes to things that you know nothing about you imbecile. You have made one of the most ignorant posts to ever appear on UA-cam and you are just too stupid to realize it.
A belt can also be used to swing I fuckin demoed some kid in my younger years with one swing of my belt my buckle hit him in the nosebone right beside his eye and he dropped instantly... he didn't want any after needless to say and was carried out by 2 of his boys lmfaooo
Gentleman, carry a pocket knife. I admire the man's passion for self defense but to be honest, half of these tricks you're better off just pushing the guy off his balance and sprinting away.
Dude, you're telling me you're gonna attempt to block a PUNCH with a PEN? Yeah, why don't you just block with your pinky instead; I'm sure that's reasonable.
Iam, you most certainly do NOT understand how a pen can be used. If you want to be cute and use your pinky, go right ahead. For me and others, the pen gives a big advantage for offense and defense.
Ball point pens...a roll of quarters that act as a brace for punching...layer your clothing, acts as a deterrent to knife stab wounds...thick rolled up newspaper....
That's why I always carry a pen with me, and I always wear a belt when going out there...he's so right about this 2 items...and both of these items are not prohibited anywhere you go in any situation, enough said !
Especially in an airport or even on the plane.
Good tips, here is one more. Carry a pocket full of quarters in a strong pair of athletic socks. If you grab it by the open end (and knot it if you have time) you have made a very effective black jack. If an assailant comes after you, swing it hard and use it to crack his skull open.

No perfect practice makes perfect

Thanks. I thought I would need a tactical pen or metal flashlight, but you have demonstrated that an ordinary practical pen can work.
Great video Michael, extremely useful and well presented.Thanks.
Nice Simple Instruction video. Your efforts are worth appreciation 😊
So the pen is mightier than the sword. Glad we finally got that resolved.
My wife keeps one of those long and very thick cucumbers by her bed. Must be to practice self defense. I was confused before.
I guess for other purposes
Your mom keeps one of those long cucumber things by her bed😀
Good, sensible stuff, Michael!
I ride the bus, and often am alone. These tips will make me feel less vulnerable as I wait for the bus to arrive. Thanks.
Great Video - superb - gives one examples of everyday weapons / how to use them / AND what to do after you use them !!! Whoo hoo.
I carry my walking stick good for blocking and striking if threatened or attacked . I am disabled.
a retired Kingsman !
Absolutely underrated
Thank you so much this vid was amazing, someone threatens to attack out uni and I'm using all these much help thx xxx

Thanks for sharing. These are crazy times. I just don’t want to be the Victim.
Excellent video Thank you so much !!!
I always carry a 1st aid kit with scissors and an electronic working kit with screwdriver and stuff
Good ideas. Getting solid metal pens and belt durable for choking.
metal coffee cups can be used to hit the crap off of the gut

Can you make a video on how to escape from being smothered by a pillow?
Good stuff!!!

7:40 thinking of puting an aluminum plate in this bag🤔 Like in a stabproof west
Michael, please study basic human anatomy. The femoral artery is in the leg.
Jim Livingston Yes. I was nervous since this was my first video. Of course I know the throat artery is the carotid. Afterward I noticed my mistake but didn't feel like re-shooting. I hope you can still find helpful info here.
I don't believe a cucumber is as similar to a humans throat or the Carotid artery, not that a knife won't slice right through someone's neck.
Thanks, Lots of sound knowledge and with everyday common items at our disposal to gain back control of any dangerous situation i might find myself in.
If you are extremely strong you can pour sand or put Kevlar in the handbag
Thanks for this great video!

I don't know if you can bite deep enough, but if your life is on the line it's worth a try.
Never waste coffee in the morning! :-D
“Most people will have a cup of coffee with them” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
A coffee mug will double as a blunt edged weapon while a thermos might also be used to block and attack.
These are gems, Krav Maga.

I wonder why he was wearing a neck choker. Its the perfect armor piece to protect you from a magazine attack!
Great comment, honesly made me laugh out loud.
who thought he was actually going to spill that coffee?
If you try the trick at 12:30, it would help to be wearing suspenders.
Thanks I need this because im scared of my uncle for reasons
I don't know the details, but you might need to involve the police or apply for a restraining order.
Why? Get as far away from the degenerate as possible, if you don’t trust someone why the hell are they in your life at all?
Bottom line “everything is a weapon (tool)” if used properly.
The attacker watching this viedo like 👁 👄 👁

Any threat to life will more likely be caused by secondary trauma, such as Striking their head on the ground or other object while falling g. The initial strike is not, in itself, known to be fatal.
That's a tough one when my Starbucks is so good
You can fill the pen with epoxy resin and reassemble.
POCKET SAND
Bro, I’m in my dads bedroom and right next to me on the shelf is a katana (I don’t know y) pretty sure I’m good
Good
It's Dwight Shrute IRL!!!
Great info. Don't forget either just how great a cell phone is to use for protection.

Didn't think the femoral artery was in the neck.
GREAT!! now I have a sack of paper to defend ALL MY VITAL ORGANS from bullets..except for my brain
Clarification: the femoral artery is located in the thigh, not in the neck
A belt can also be used to swing I fuckin demoed some kid in my younger years with one swing of my belt my buckle hit him in the nosebone right beside his eye and he dropped instantly... he didn't want any after needless to say and was carried out by 2 of his boys lmfaooo
AWESOMMME!!! 🤜🏼👊🏼👋🏼🙏🏼😌🥒🖊
This guy just likes to fuck up cucumbers with random shit. When he licked the juice off the pen i knew i would be haunted for the rest of my life.
Not coincidence that the belt scene was directly after the cucumber scene either.
Boi i have sock with metal ball in it
Pin_lock that's very similar to using a belt or a tiger whip chain.
Swing it and you can crack open a Skull!!!
MAXIMUM DAMAGE
Imma carry a pen all the time now
Femoral is in the thigh.
Carotid is in the throat.

Ok, false/misleading info. “A stack of papers will not stop most bullets”. How thick of a stack are you really gonna be carrying?
The Carotid artery is in your neck my themer is my leg
