Great video. As a 66 year old who grew up in the macho culture of South Texas in the '60's-'70's it was harder to avoid fighting than it is now. That's why I learned to Box as a young man and still practice Boxing basics daily (along with Filipino blade training and empty hand martial arts). We used to roughhouse in the Marine Corps and some fights could get intense. As you said, "It's NOT worth it!!!!!". I'd also like to add that NOT only does a person need to be aware of their mouth but also avoiding looking at a lady and not sitting the hood of a car that doesn't belong to them. In my motorcycle riding days if someone sat on my motorcycle without permission it usually lead to a fight. If a person shows respect and is ready to apologize, they can usually avoid most fights. And your point about going "toe to toe" is another excellent point. It's amazing how much energy you use up when in a fight. That's why proper breathing is something that is taught to Boxing and Martial Arts students. Keep up the great videos my friend. Frank in North Texas.
Also take into consideration the legal aspects of encounters such as this. As I have said previously, you better have a large war chest to hire a good criminal defense if the local DA does not agree with your actions. Make sure the attorney that represents you will handle the appellate work if you are convicted, most do not, more money out of the pocket, a lot more for appellate work. If reversable error is found, that does not mean the defendant walks, you get a new trial, and more money goes into the pockets of the attorneys. Additionally, if you lose the criminal case the civil case will be a slam dunk, as the standard of evidence is much high in a criminal case. An excellent example of sometimes doing nothing is the best course of conduct is the Dunn case in Florida, he shot a shoplifter over a nearly worthless hatchet. Now he is convicted felon who will probably never be legally able to own a firearm or ammunition. Minding one's own business and keeping silent will eliminate a major portion of problems we may encounter in life. Rock on.
I believe that I was almost a victim of the "knock out" game at one time. I used to work shift-work and I was in the grocery store late at night and after checking out, I was exiting the store and heard someone running up from behind me. I turned to look and a young man ran past me and then began to laugh. I was quite sure that if I had not been aware of him running up to me, he would have tried to assault me by trying to knock me out. Fortunately, I have good situational awareness, and it would have ended badly for him if this youngster had made contact with me. Be alert of your surroundings and be prepared to react is my motto. I hope this helps someone else avoid being a victim.
Want to just say thank you for being a voice of reason in today's chaotic and dangerous world. I really enjoy your tips and though I'm now an old dude, I am learning from your advice. Keep it coming!
Incredible content. I tell my people all the time- getting KOd is less of a problem than smashing your brain on the concrete which almost always results in SIGNIFICANT brain damage
Hi, thanks for updating our minds! 👍 As for me, my childhood was in Lithuania under Soviet Union regime. So when I was 8-10 years old, walking on the streets was always with bullying from teens gangs. They asked for 10 cents and then tried to knock you down. It was horrible, because I was a peace loving boy with sense of harmony for surrounding. So my tactics was not to answer, to ignore it, and then run away. Most times I succeeded, but couple of times I was beaten down in my back and only then escaped. When I was 10 years old I watched Rambo, and somehow I saw myself in this character.... I started to pump my muscles, I started to learn boxing, grappling and kickboxing. Once I was pushed in a corner, so there was nothing other left for me than to swing with a hook my abuser and break through aggressive gang. In 1991 USSR fell and soviet army returned to Russia together with their families. Soviet officers took to Russia and their aggressive sons, that were raised in fascist and abusive families. So naturally, peaceful times began in Lithuania with much less street gangs and aggression. I have always felt my Guardian Angel beside me.🙏✝️ Wish long life to your channel, Bro! 🙏🙂
Really good stuff. Elderly and young people can’t handle being hit or kicked like a 20 year old can. This disparity of force is being recognized by some of the courts, who are acknowledging that the elderly may have to use a weapon to avoid TBI
Never been knocked out...I been hit so hard , I flew several feet away...but I didn't pass out...of course I was getting jumped by 12 bigger guys, nothing I could do but try to live long enough to make a run for it...which I did ! Next day, I had a messed up face...but I lived
I've been a fan of 411 Outdoors Channel for 2 years now. I appreciate the honest, blunt, and VERY USEFUL content! I appreciate your work and dedication my fellow SHEEP DOG! Hollywood sure has done a damn good job making fighting look glorious and fun... Even knife fighting, I think back to "Under Siege", they made a Gerber dagger and a butcher knife look like some sorta art, looking fun until Tommy Lee Jones got his eye gouged out..... I say all this to make clear there's a huge difference between Fantasy fighting and street fighting. It's NOT PRETTY what can and will happen in a street fight. It's not a stylish dance, that leaves you with a perfect little cut on your cheek, and wins the heart of the Girl of your dreams! It's UGLY and has the sensitivity of a Sherman TANK! Permanent damage is ALWAYS a possibility. Getting jumped, going to the ground and being STOMPED happens...(I carry a Cold Steel Hide out every day, it's a tough dagger under $30, best boot knife next to their Counter tac 2) I survived getting stomped via a 3" dagger, by the grace of God! Video games and movies sure do a great job at making violence look Glorious.... An admirable gesture that makes a"HERO" irresistible to the beautiful Girl. Don't fall victim to the system's Desensitization Ploys! First person shooting games can be a lot of fun, however keep in mind that the US Military has had a hand in the development of FPS games for Desensitization/Recruiting purposes. Movies were also heavy influenced by the US Military to fuel the Cold War... Just about every action movie from the 80s has a Russian villain.... Anyways I could use many other examples of reasons to be cautious of ROMANTICZING VIOLENCE... You are most likely going to get hard time in a state prison, than winning the heart of your Dream GIRL! 🤣 I know at the end of the day you gotta do what a decent SHEEP DOG is obligated morally to do.... Got a neighbor beating on his wife, SHEEP DOGS don't tolerate that unexcusable behavior. Sometimes it's the tiger or the tiger when forced to intervene in sticky situations... You gotta hit what's pitched to live with your conscious/Moral 🧭 compass. That's where your training is gonna be worth the time and effort! Thanks again 411 outdoors for another Relevant and important episode!!! From the perspective of a SHEEP DOG it's important to keep in mind that we have been Desensitized to violence on purpose.... Fabricated, fantasy fights are fun to watch, just can't forget that Reality is unfair, unforgiving, and very messy! God bless and be with all my fellow SHEEP DOGS🐾🖤✌️
“Going toe-to-toe”. Yep. I had someone fly off on me because I avoided talking to them. Got hit because I was trying to talk them down. Then just went swinging with them. After just a few seconds I had hit them but got hit myself and realized that was a losing situation. I had martial arts experience but because I tried to be nice and then fall back on reflex I almost got my butt kicked. But I realized the situation, stepped back and used my skills and range advantage to keep popping him in the face and stomping his gut. Getting hit made me leery of using my back hand to really land a hard blow. But after hitting him numerous times without getting hit back he got pissed and took off. I learned a lot that day. The only other time, I made it clear I had no issue but wasn’t putting up with anything. I had my chin down and hands up and they decided not to push the issue.
Most excellent advice! Great video. Someone getting in my face is a real no no for me! Number 5 is referred to as “Happy Slapping” I believe here in UK but has declined greatly recently. A real dangerous & cowardly thing to do. Much appreciated! 👍
Brother I really like your common sense approach. Plain talk is easy understood. I’m a 60 year old that grew up on a place called the state line. Ky/Tn. Was a place a fight would find you. You didn’t have to be looking for it. It was a different time back then. As always good advice.👍🏻👍🏻
De-escalate, de-escalate, de-escalate! That’s all I can offer after 30+ years in psych social work. The calmer I am, the clearer I can think. As a 61 yr old woman, you can bet that I carry pepper spray; this especially after being punched by a random stranger on a street a year ago. I am so aware of everything around me,; it still remains my best defence to find an escape route. Thank you for your channel, look forward to every new post.
I was tapped on the 😂shoulder from behind…and like a dummy, turned around and met a fist in my face. Glasses I wore broke and hit the ground. Ended up pummeled till my head looked like a cauliflower. Got up four times but still couldn’t see the punches, and kicks till it was too late. Dude kept screaming at me to stay down. I did enjoy it. After the first two shots I went numb. Probably the best martial art lesson I ever learned in this context. Pay attention,always.

Thanks for the video. My only story is really boring compared to all the ones you gave. I was taking a medication that caused my blood pressure to become too low. I stood up and couldn't maintain enough blood pressure to my head. I fainted and hit the floor hard. I woke forty-five minutes later with a huge bump on the back of my head. The ER couldn't find any fracture, but my skull has never returned to the proper shape. I had thrown up once while I was out and a couple of times just after waking. I also passed out on the porch and threw up again waiting for the ambulance. I don't remember the moments before I fainted, so I don't know whether there's something more I could have done at the time. When I feel lightheaded now, I try to get onto my hands and knees quickly so I won't fall far enough to be knocked out.
Outstanding, again. Thank you. The two things I will remember from this (everything you talked about has been considered on a regular basis as I age) are: 1. "There's no money in it." Hahaha... so true! It just ain't worth it! - and - "Asleep at the wheel". Situational awareness! For God's sake, people... don't go all rectal-cranial inversion on us! Stay awake! Get off your phone while ambulatin' around out there. blah blah blah - you know the rest. Thanks again. Cheers!
i;ve been in these situations. great advice here. don't put your life on the line unless a life is at stake and then understand that you may be the life lost to attempt to save one.
411, You always give great advice and perspectives Appreciate it!! You are correct, the streets are getting more dangerous! And it’s coming into the Neighborhoods too! Situational awareness is necessary, no matter where you are, and what time of day or night! We all need to stay on the Ready…..to help people and defend ourselves! 💪🇺🇸✝️☝️
I was once in a billiards place and observed this guy in a shouting match with the owner. The owner had enough and physically pushed him out and told him not to return. I had got closer as this was going on and the bad guy and I made eye contact. It was an hour later and this same guy was at the tavern next door and saw me. I had went their for a drink. After I left, he was outside this place and started giving me a hard time. He kept his distance at first but then with bad intent walked quickly toward me. He wanted to hurt me and in a split second I lowered my posture and round house kicked him and he fell to the ground. He was on something and disoriented but that gave me time to get out of that situation unharmed. Can you talk about the proper way to round house kick? Thank you for your educating us folks.
Great advice, way too many people have too much to say when they have absolutely no business saying anything. That can, and has lead to an ass beating when someone mouthed off to me,, I have an extremely short fuse, not proud of it but it is what it is.
I didn't learn to fight untill I was 40 years old and I was the kid getting beat up in school but when I learned something about it I felt like I had to prove myself to see if the moves actually worked and I started winning some fights...but after proving myself..now I'm 71years old and I just want to live out my days peacefully with people and never fight again. I'm in north Central New Mexico and it's a dangerous city but it appears likes it's a lot more peaceful than back in the 1980s and the years2000to 2010. I loved yr video and have seen you in yr other videos too.
I did get self defense/grappling training, have done some boxing and had my share of share of scrapes during my LE career, but I’m in my late 70s & walk w/a cane now so I don’t confront anyone. Good advise here, thx for posting.
The best way to avoid a fight is best just say "yea....I see that". Kinda agree and move on your way! 70 percent psyhological, 20 percent training, 5 percent chance of a fight....better that way
Back in the early 90's I had a group of friends that I would hang with, one of them had a girlfriend who would run her mouth all the time. Outside a pool hall at three in the morning she is calling dudes out. It got to the point I would not hang with them if she was around at night.
I have to yell at my girlfriend weekly to not yell and stare down people in other cars ..roadrage is so dumb and dangerous and i tell her ypur gonna get me or someone else badly hurt and its not worth it
user-hh3nbkj7z, Not listening to you, is a red flag. It's disrespectful. As stated, it places you in danger. Improve your communicative, or her comprehensive, skills. Or separate, for your own safety... ☆
I subscribed last video but did not comment in that video. I like the way you present your content and how you emphasize above all to avoid fights. I will share this one fairly recent experience. One time I was standing at a bus stop wearing sunglasses and was just staring off into the distance, but it was in the direction of a young Latino man sitting with his girlfriend on a low ledge. Suddenly he was practically in my face much to my surprise and very angrily asked me if I was looking at him. I just said, No. Then he asked me, Then are you looking at my girl?! I just said, No, I wasn´t, and he went away angrily. So I am very careful now where I might absently mindedly look, especially on a bus and especially if I am wearing sunglasses. I guess I was lucky that day. So perhaps it is good to be self aware and not inadvertently be staring in someoneś direction.
My ex used to brag about my strength. I had too many people come up to me testing what he told them😢 yes we're divorced now. I hate confrontation, especially when there's no reason for it. But I'm glad I can stand up for myself, but really hate ever needing to do it. Just reality. If this happens, you're somewhere you shouldn't be. 😢😢😢❤
Great video! I think having a guard is preferable but not a deal breaker. If the handle has some texture or the shape invites a good grip ( think mora style) I don’t think a guard or at least a prominent guard is absolutely necessary. That said I think in this particular case because of handle shape a bit of guard would be good to have. Again great job!
1. Is spot on some people can’tgo from 0-100 my dad is like that I seen him knock people out for talking side ways. Granted he’s older now not like that anymore but the statement is still true.
1. I am not a stud, an MMA fighter or a stunt man. However, I was trained in OODALOOP. www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=oodaloop It is not a martial art. It is an approach to combat originally taught to US jet fighter pilots. 2. Yes to everything you said. 3. Get the opponent to talk and keep your mouth shut. A person can only do one thing at at time. If he talks, he cannot act. 4. OODALOOP classmate. Being heldup at gunpoint at a gas station, draws from concealed and kills the assailant on the spot. 5. You never should want to grapple. I always assume a potential opponent is going to kick my ass.
How was 15 was the first and the last time I ever been knocked out taught me a lesson Young and yes my jaw on the left side is a little lower and my ears a little lower so my glasses tilt but I lived and here's the thing to remember we all die it's just a matter of when where how and why 🐝
Take a security job to hone your awareness & get a good grasp of how it looks when it’s coming. On numerous occasions I could see the intention to “clock” me, both while walking and on the golf cart. They may be talking nice and ever so slowly closing distance, or not saying anything. The one guy casually grasped the cart upright for a little extra leverage, i kept the cart moving tho. The other, just calculated distance. Did I say the word “distance” enough?
How about never leave your back facing people. Don't let anyone walk behind you. If you are around strangers, keep an eye out for who is behind you. Keep your mouth shut. If close quarters seem too close, time to get away fast.
I was born with a heart condition and if I were to defend myself, what could I use other than a firearm? I don't own a firearm yet but I have a push dagger.

Also take into consideration the legal aspects of encounters such as this. As I have said previously, you better have a large war chest to hire a good criminal defense if the local DA does not agree with your actions. Make sure the attorney that represents you will handle the appellate work if you are convicted, most do not, more money out of the pocket, a lot more for appellate work. If reversable error is found, that does not mean the defendant walks, you get a new trial, and more money goes into the pockets of the attorneys. Additionally, if you lose the criminal case the civil case will be a slam dunk, as the standard of evidence is much high in a criminal case. An excellent example of sometimes doing nothing is the best course of conduct is the Dunn case in Florida, he shot a shoplifter over a nearly worthless hatchet. Now he is convicted felon who will probably never be legally able to own a firearm or ammunition. Minding one's own business and keeping silent will eliminate a major portion of problems we may encounter in life. Rock on.
Great advice on all fronts.

I was once in a billiards place and observed this guy in a shouting match with the owner. The owner had enough and physically pushed him out and told him not to return. I had got closer as this was going on and the bad guy and I made eye contact. It was an hour later and this same guy was at the tavern next door and saw me. I had went their for a drink. After I left, he was outside this place and started giving me a hard time. He kept his distance at first but then with bad intent walked quickly toward me. He wanted to hurt me and in a split second I lowered my posture and round house kicked him and he fell to the ground. He was on something and disoriented but that gave me time to get out of that situation unharmed. Can you talk about the proper way to round house kick? Thank you for your educating us folks.
Great advice, way too many people have too much to say when they have absolutely no business saying anything. That can, and has lead to an ass beating when someone mouthed off to me,, I have an extremely short fuse, not proud of it but it is what it is.
I didn't learn to fight untill I was 40 years old and I was the kid getting beat up in school but when I learned something about it I felt like I had to prove myself to see if the moves actually worked and I started winning some fights...but after proving myself..now I'm 71years old and I just want to live out my days peacefully with people and never fight again. I'm in north Central New Mexico and it's a dangerous city but it appears likes it's a lot more peaceful than back in the 1980s and the years2000to 2010. I loved yr video and have seen you in yr other videos too.
Thank you!
yes, good advice.
My dad always told me to pick my battle selectively & win the ones I pick
Im 44 filipino lovin ur videos man.i like the mentality keeps me aware also keep it up tnx
Awesome! Thank you
Pick your battles 💯
I did get self defense/grappling training, have done some boxing and had my share of share of scrapes during my LE career, but I’m in my late 70s & walk w/a cane now so I don’t confront anyone. Good advise here, thx for posting.
The best way to avoid a fight is best just say "yea....I see that". Kinda agree and move on your way! 70 percent psyhological, 20 percent training, 5 percent chance of a fight....better that way
ITS NOT WORTH NOTHING ..TOP MAN TOP WORDS 💎👍
Back in the early 90's I had a group of friends that I would hang with, one of them had a girlfriend who would run her mouth all the time. Outside a pool hall at three in the morning she is calling dudes out. It got to the point I would not hang with them if she was around at night.
Get it 💯
Machida's Father told him Knockout was the same as dying.
I have to yell at my girlfriend weekly to not yell and stare down people in other cars ..roadrage is so dumb and dangerous and i tell her ypur gonna get me or someone else badly hurt and its not worth it
user-hh3nbkj7z,
Not listening to you, is a red flag.
It's disrespectful.
As stated, it places you in danger.
Improve your communicative, or her comprehensive, skills.
Or separate, for your own safety... ☆
The schools should be hiring men like yourself to go in and talk about these things to young men. Thank-you for your posts, John / Northern Ireland
Thank you!
I subscribed last video but did not comment in that video.
I like the way you present your content and how you emphasize above all to avoid fights.
I will share this one fairly recent experience.
One time I was standing at a bus stop wearing sunglasses and was just staring off into the distance, but it was in the direction of a young Latino man sitting with his girlfriend on a low ledge.
Suddenly he was practically in my face much to my surprise and very angrily asked me if I was looking at him. I just said, No.
Then he asked me, Then are you looking at my girl?! I just said, No, I wasn´t, and he went away angrily.
So I am very careful now where I might absently mindedly look, especially on a bus and especially if I am wearing sunglasses.
I guess I was lucky that day. So perhaps it is good to be self aware and not inadvertently be staring in someoneś direction.
My ex used to brag about my strength. I had too many people come up to me testing what he told them😢 yes we're divorced now. I hate confrontation, especially when there's no reason for it. But I'm glad I can stand up for myself, but really hate ever needing to do it. Just reality. If this happens, you're somewhere you shouldn't be. 😢😢😢❤
This sums it up to keep out of trouble:: James 1:19 Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be
quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger;
Have you seen the movie "way of the gun"? Theirs a scene in there that relates to the topic
Interesting I need to see it now!🙂👍
@@411Outdoors it's worth watching. Has some good actors in it. Came out around 2000 I think.
Great video! I think having a guard is preferable but not a deal breaker. If the handle has some texture or the shape invites a good grip ( think mora style) I don’t think a guard or at least a prominent guard is absolutely necessary. That said I think in this particular case because of handle shape a bit of guard would be good to have. Again great job!
Thank you!
1. Is spot on some people can’tgo from 0-100 my dad is like that I seen him knock people out for talking side ways. Granted he’s older now not like that anymore but the statement is still true.
Point 3 is 💯- fight dirty. Believe me if you don’t, they will.
Could you please do a video on how to cook with no electricity or gas, like in the event of a EMP or terror attack on the grid? 🙏
I should be able to pull that off. We got some good weather coming here in southern Virginia over the next couple of months.
@411Outdoors I spent 45 yrs in N.C the winter MIGHT be rough, never snows like it use to when I was a kid. 🙏
Fondue pot and can sterno
I was knocked out on the street about a week ago and when I came to, the guy that knocked me out (and his homies) were clapping my cheeks!
😮
They caught ya slippin, son. Hope ya scooped out all the baby gravy from your stovepipe.
@@NaforaPatel 😂😆🤣😭
Mike tyson said you got a plan get in a fight get punched in the face and plan goes out the window😂
Pretty sure that fight had only seconds left and EGO lost the fight for him.
Another most important thing is , don't stick your nose in other people's business
Always thought that the side of the chin was the knockout point. So, a straight punch to the front of the chin can do it too? Thanks
Oh absolutely especially if caught unaware
Thanks very much for your reply. Appreciated!
1. I am not a stud, an MMA fighter or a stunt man. However, I was trained in OODALOOP. www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=oodaloop It is not a martial art. It is an approach to combat originally taught to US jet fighter pilots.
2. Yes to everything you said.
3. Get the opponent to talk and keep your mouth shut. A person can only do one thing at at time. If he talks, he cannot act.
4. OODALOOP classmate. Being heldup at gunpoint at a gas station, draws from concealed and kills the assailant on the spot.
5. You never should want to grapple. I always assume a potential opponent is going to kick my ass.
How was 15 was the first and the last time I ever been knocked out taught me a lesson Young and yes my jaw on the left side is a little lower and my ears a little lower so my glasses tilt but I lived and here's the thing to remember we all die it's just a matter of when where how and why 🐝
Done. Every martial art. Most dont work in real. Fights. Y. Adrenaline kicks in when voices get loud. Seen black belts freeze. 8:06
Take a security job to hone your awareness & get a good grasp of how it looks when it’s coming.
On numerous occasions I could see the intention to “clock” me, both while walking and on the golf cart.
They may be talking nice and ever so slowly closing distance, or not saying anything. The one guy casually grasped the cart upright for a little extra leverage, i kept the cart moving tho.
The other, just calculated distance.
Did I say the word “distance” enough?
How about never leave your back facing people. Don't let anyone walk behind you. If you are around strangers, keep an eye out for who is behind you. Keep your mouth shut. If close quarters seem too close, time to get away fast.
I was born with a heart condition and if I were to defend myself, what could I use other than a firearm? I don't own a firearm yet but I have a push dagger.
SOUND ADVICE MISTER
In a street fight… there is no referee!
bro your really underrated
Thank you! I’ve been an underdog my whole life, but I’m gonna plow on my friend. Much appreciated!
Fantastic. Very helpful. You might have saved my life. I'm at peace now..
Thank you!
Oly way to not get nocked out must be violent
If you’re in a fight, definitely be more violent than the other💯
Like a wise person told me is if you go be stupid you better be tough ..
👍
STREET FIGHT CAN GET U KILLED OR LIFED OFF EASY 🎯
*hmm - two down, three to go... whose next?
... What if she was such a knockout.?! 😸
😂
0 to jail……Head on a swivel
🦅👍
I find nowadays it’s usually a woman talking trash that causes men to get knocked out.
If I find myself in a fair fight, my tactics are flawed.
Always cheat.
