Ever in the pursuit of bringing the world closer together, I'm going to start a little game. It's an easy one.
The person in the post immediately before you will ask a question. You answer that question in your posts and then ask your own for the person to follow you.
I suggest quoting the question instead of just answering. Everyone posts quickly here so we wouldn't want the question to get lost in the mix.
Also, if you wish to answer your own question as part of the original post, that's fine too. It's all about sharing and learning.
I'll start.
Question: The person below me has been in a physical fight in their adult life.
I was in a fight as part of my job as Residence Director for a state college. One student was in a fight with 10 guys who were determined to hurt him. Security was called but I knew they'd arrive about half-an-hour later. I intervened for the safety of the student.
I used my evasion skills to work my way into the middle and then started throwing the closest assailants in a way that brought them off balance and away from the one student without injuring them. Once I had cleared the student from the group I tried to talk them all down.
The one student, both drunk and high, at one point tried to run past me and back into the fight. Despite wanting to let him get beaten up for being stupid, I didn't want him to get hurt. Because of his intoxication and altered mental state I knew he wouldn't feel any pain if I tried a controlling technique.
So, as he ran past, I simply locked him into a standing rear choke. Our chokes are quite effective and he was on the ground stunned in 4 seconds. The other guys seemd to have respect for my exhibited ability and, with the fervor of the moment, passed, allowed me to get the student out of there instead of risking expulsion.
Such an event could have gone many different ways but I had to react instantly in the manner I thought best.
Anyway, so there's my question:
Question: The person below me has been in a physical fight in their adult life.
(That'll include anyone from 16 and up just for you, Sam. lol)
