Finding yourself cornered by 22 (angry) children
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.
