	How would you handle this? Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

If you get in a fight, and encounters one of the following situations, how would you deal with it?

1. You are grabbed from behind. The attacker puts you in a choking hold.

2. Somebody chokes you with both hands from the front.

Assume in both cases, the attacker is of average build.

I am particularly interested in replies from the ACS'ers who went through military service.

1) raise leg backwards in a hooking fashion
2) insert right foot into left testicle of attacker

simple

1. Stomp them as hard as you can on the foot using the heel of your shoe. The initial pain usually makes them let go for a second giving you a chance to break away.

2. Bring you knee hard up into their crotch.

1. Grab right arm of attacker. Use heel to stomp on foot of attacker. Dip shoulder and twist slightly into a one knee kneel, flipping attacker to ground if executed properly. Subdue attacker by breaking arm and preparing for follow-up blows if necessary.

2. If within reach, place thumbs on eyes of attacker, press inward towards brain of attacker (if any). If not within reach, front kick to kneecap.

1) Grab thumb and break it, or smash head backward into face, if hold isn't too tight. Or drive elbow backward (you can break his ribs pretty easily)

2) Hah! You can almost certainly knock his hands off your throat. From there, hip toss, then "ground and pound".

EDIT: for 2, if his arms are held high, punch him in the armpit....

Reminds me of John Cleese instructing people on how to deal with an attacker armed with fresh fruit, e.g. a banana.

1. Stomp on his right foot, making him yell out in pain and drop the banana.

2. Peel banana and eat it, thus rendering the attacker unarmed and defenseless.

Remember to have gun or explosives ready in case he produces backup banana.

1. Stomping on the guy's foot is all well and good, but for hard core pain you should scrape your heel along his shin while stomping.

2. Jam your knee in his groin, or jam your thumbs in his eyes, or jam your thumbs in his armpits, or punch him in the throat, etc. Even if he doesn't let go, he'll probably loosen his grip enough for you to jam your thumb into the webbing of his hand, making it fairly easy to yank his hand off.

Heh. So ok, you might want to bend a little while doing this. Sideway bend works good even with a arm lock.

Geez, find a friend and try it for yourself!

1- Depending on the grip, I'd go straight for his testicles or eyes with my fingers.

2- Either the fingers to the eyes, or a heavy kick to kneecap or testicles. If I was close enough, I'd go for a head-butt or bite to the face.

1) Stomp on right foot, elbow him in the rib, grab right shoulder, throw to ground.

2) Kick assailant in groin. Repeatedly.

Alternatively, Lincoln's methods would fit my personality.

Edit: FWIW, I hold a green belt in Karate. However, due to school, I haven't been able to go to classes for nine months now.

2) After you hit him in the balls, he automatically bends. Hit him as hard as you can with both hands on the ears, this will most probably cause him to lose the abilty to balance himself, forever. Since he cant stand anymore, you're free to keep beating the **** out of him.

Attacking the eyes is also great, but it's easier to miss.
