“I am a mathematician, and I would like to stand on your roof.” That is how Ron Eglash greeted many African families he met while researching the fractal patterns he’d noticed in villages across the continent.

Earlier this year we had a post on what large a group of children we could face in a battle. As that post shows, back then Theeboon could handle twenty-two angry children at once. He has been practising his upper-cut since, and i must say it is impressive! It sometimes looks a bit like the fatality-move from Mortal Combat.

But now i found this guide on how to handle groups of angry children in a fight. It’s really funny, and so true.

Some snippets…

On the subject of mobility;

Unless you’re extremely lucky and find yourself fighting twenty infants, you’re going to be at a mobility disadvantage when fighting a large group of children. You must avoid becoming surrounded at all costs.

Techniques;

Your best bet is to stay on your feet and use striking techniques. Karate is one good choice – it was originally designed in the 1600’s for use by unarmed Japanese day care workers.

And weapons;

I’d suggest refraining from using weapons, [ .. ]. By bringing a weapon you might prompt the children to bring weapons as well. This kind of escalation plays against you.

All aspects of a battle against (at least) 20 children seems to be covered over at Cracked.com. Go check it out and laugh.
