DEFENDING YOURSELF FROM MULTIPLE ATTACKERS
One of the biggest dangers that you’ll face in an urban survival situation
is an attack from multiple people. Anyone who’s serious about survival
needs to be able to defend themselves and their loved ones from all
types of violent attacks.
Watch the group’s body language – Watching the group’s body language
will give you a clue to when they’re ready to attack.
Fighting a group does not always mean having to fight the whole group.
In fact, your goal is to fight as few of them as possible. Instead of defea-
ting each of their bodies, you must instead destroy their minds.
Your first strike must be spectacular, and very visible to the group.
The more visible the injury is the greater physiological effect it will have
on the rest of the group., The first few seconds of the fight are critical; if
you can psychologically defeat the group now, many of them will scatter
without ever throwing a punch.
Identify the leader – Who is the strongest link? This person is your main
threat, and must be taken out first. Taking out the leader can destroy the
group’s willingness to fight, and is the first step to surviving an attack.
Remember, you want to create a strong visible injury that will make the
group rethink its attack.
Weapons if you’re not carrying one, quickly scan your surroundings.
Beer bottles, tree branches, garbage cans, bricks, and even the pen in
your pocket can be used as improvised weapons during an emergency
situation.

Almost anything can be a weapon: In an extreme situation, you can
use many everyday objects as a weapon. A pen or pencil can be used as
a dagger, or a phone or lamp could be used as a club. Anything that is
harder, sharper or more resilient than your hands can be used effectively,
so take the time (preferably in advance) to look around for everyday ob-
jects that you could use to defend against a violent attacker.

BELT
Just as you should remember that your belt should match the color of
your shoes, you should also remember that it can be used as a weapon
in a pinch.
The you can use a belt as a weapon is as a force multiplier when stran-
gling an assailant.
An easy-to-undo belt gives you a whip-like weapon with a dangerous he-
avy end. Tricky to use in a dire situation but still worth considering.

PEN
In the right hands, the pen can indeed be mightier than the sword. A
stainless steel pen like iron pen can be used to stab an assailant. Hold
it with an overhand grip and aim for vulnerable parts of the body like the
face and throat.

IMPROVISING WEAPONS
Improvised weapons are different because it is perfectly acceptable to
carry them around, and when used correctly they be very effective to as-
sist in your defense. You should be thinking about escaping to prevent
injury, so use these objects as a surprise attack, or a distraction tactic to
enable you to run away, calling for help as you go.
You must also consider the consequences of using improvised weapons
like these. If you become the aggressor you must do so with the full kno-
wledge that your actions may cause your situation to worsen if you can-
not escape. Do not attack unless it is necessary, and do so only as a last
resort. You can seriously damage somebody using these methods there-
fore try to gain an advantage and nothing more. You will be angry and
frightened, but that does not mean you should lose control. Responsible
self-protection to help you to escape is what you are aiming for.

DEFENDING YOURSELF WHEN HIT THE FLOOR
DEFENSE ON THE GROUND
The biggest difference when fighting on the ground is footwork. Here are
three ways to use your biggest muscles.
KICKING. If you fall to the ground, immediately get your legs between
you and the attacker. That puts your head farthest away from his wea-
pons and aims your strongest weapons straight at him. Remember-- he-
ad out, feet in!
BUMPING. This is like a gymnast’s bridge, only violent! It’s like driving
your car and hitting a speed bump-- you get jolted and spill your coffee.
Same idea here.
Don't let your attacker settle down. Shake his body and shake his confi-
dence. Bump your hips to make the space you need to get your legs in
between and kick yourself back to safety.
SCOOTING. Use your feet to walk backwards and forwards on your
back. Try jumping backwards and forwards on your side, too.
If you want to get back on your feet, you have to USE your feet. So, get
down and have a little fun just rolling around with your old friend.

.If you cannot get up from the ground for any reason you must fight back
hard by aiming blows at the attacker's vital areas. The groin is
a good target to aim for. If you are on the ground and an attacker comes
