I'm not talking about murderer, necessarily. If you're at the ATM and some twerp grabs your wrist as you're pulling out your cash, he's probably not looking to kill you and there are many simple techniques that will take him off his feet.
That post was response to you saying "sharing self defense knowledge could save someone's life". But again, the main point of my post was to point out that this subject has been done to death.
im simply quoting this because i think people will skim it and not get the important part, which is to learn breakfalls...theyve saved me multiple times, if not my life than from serious injury at the very least
Honestly 'ukemi as self defense' probably deserves it's own thread. Especially as people get older knowing how to fall becomes really likely to improve your quality of life. That 69 year old that can still take a throw in judo probably isn't going to break his hip slipping on some ice.
