  • Learn how to defend yourself against a swinging blunt force weapon in this video. Key takeaways: a weapon gives the attacker the advantage of distance. You take away that advantage by getting close. Next, catch the weapon on the deceleration and use their momentum against them.
    Grab a buddy, grab something soft, and practice!

    Youve just earned yourself a new subscriber. I like how you dont just break down the movements, but you show precisely why those movements are being made and the breakdown of danger zones along the bat.

      The fact that ur expecting that they would risk any mistakes is stupid.Obviously u wont manage to do it. But if u have no other choice, this is a actually helpful method. Especially against Overconfident or Amateur Attackers. But if u have 1 way to escape. Immediantly choose the escape option.It wont help u if u break ur bones but catch the guy.Always choose the less risky option.

      Swinging on vs being swung on IS Different in real life situations but to learn anything u MIGHT wanna start it slow instead of going in thinking like u have been doing this stuff for years 👉 😜 broken bones 🩻 might b in ur future if u think u can handle someone u REALLY can't. Practicing may b in ur favor with all due consideration/respect ✌️

    Yeah I don't know, its a very good theory and it makes a lot of sense closing the distance ill give you that.
    I just think a lot of bat melee attacks are going to be one handed.
    I can see a situation where the attacker could fend off or end up holding you with a free hand while thumping away with the bat?
    I think I'd get back in the car and floor it if I seen a bat

    So the idea is, when predator swings bat rewerse, to gain enought inertia, it is the most correct time to attac, because in that time, when bat has moved to hit positions you are allreay in locking him into your hands.
    And for rookies, do not watch into predators eyes. Look at predators chest, so you can see all the body and predators movements. If predator is usual person, not some learned fighter, they freak out, because they do not undrestand why you are not keeping eye contact.

    Yeah as far as this goes idk if anyone has the nerve to actually do this in self defence because the idea of getting hit is scary. And something like a baseball bat is very much a deadly weapon though certainly closing the gap is important if you don’t have a firearm you wanna get in close as he said maybe grab the bat and stab with a knife or something like that personally I have a frying pan buckler and a homemade mace for self defence

    A surprise double leg takedown is the best defense against a baseball bat. You'll duck your head low and away from danger and the attacker needs to use two hands (losing the weapon) to defend your takedown or else they'll end up on their back with you on top of them.

    I love how descriptive you are but that man is swinging for sport. What if you're dealing with someone who knows how to use a bat and comes in punches? You straight with the handles. The bat clocks you in the face again with the handle comes back at you on your knee. Get you down. Hit you right in the f****** head now that does work for the majority of people using the bat what about those select few that actually know how to use a bat for power and distraction to use a bat as a weapon. There is many combinations that is needed. It's not just straight for hitting with the bat. First, you must bonk and right inside the f****** head and if you need to clock them again with that handle and then go out through the lower portion of the body while they're distracted with the upper and then boom get them right f****** head disable them

    The baseball bat is a terrible weapon. You can't do anything against the stick unless you have a firearm. If someone with a stick attacks you, I suggest you run away..
    Also, a serious person does not aim at the upper part of your body first.. You maybe will wait for it to come from upper but it will come much lower.. So he will break your shinbone or your kneecap then it will be time for the other bones.. In short, don't give people false self confidence..
