Okay. So we're going to speak about how to escape a wrist hold.
The first thing, again, she's going to face me. She's going to grab my hand first. We're going to talk about, imagine that she's my image in the mirror. What I'm going to do is, if she grabs me, with the same hand in the mirror, this is what I'm going to do. I'm going to imagine that I have another mirror in my hand, and I'm going to look at myself in the mirror. Okay? That's the first step, looking at myself in the mirror.
Then I'm going to secure the position by putting my hand this way under the wrist. And I'm just going to rotate my hand. There's something very important, please, not to move this arm. Not to move. You're going to move with your hips at the same time that you move this hand. Not your arm, but your hand squeezing and moving your hips. So it's going to be like this. Okay. Again. And again. Very important. Look in the mirror. Secure position, and then rotate with your hips, as if I were going to say 'Hi' to one person that is right there. Very important not to separate, or you're going to lose your strength. Okay?
So come back here. That is if she grabs me with the same hand in the mirror. But what happens if she grabs me with the opposite hand in the mirror? Very important. I'm going to switch my hand. Very important. Imagine that this is like a Foosball, and you want to play this way. This is the same motion that you are going do with your hand. Like this. As fast and as easy as just doing this. Okay? After you do that, you can go to that side and say hello to that person. This is very, very, very easy. One and two. And very important, again, squeeze the hips and rotate by using your hips and don't separate your elbow. Okay? Very important.
But before we do that, the most important you have to know that that person has another fist. She can punch me. So how to avoid that? Just by kicking. Kicking straight. Boom. That's a first move always. Boom. Kicking. Or you can even use the other hand by striking to her face and after that you can do the move. Okay? The same as if she grabs me with the same hand in the mirror. I look in the mirror but before I do that, boom, a quick kick, and then I secure the position, and I do it. So in the more realistic situation will be she grabs me, grab me, boom, that's it. I have the situation and then I can control to the side. Okay?
So again, boom, and I hit. So I am going to demonstrate by attacking her. It's very easy. She's going to it very slow. The first thing is that she's going to kick at the same time as she looks in the mirror. Exactly. Now, she's ready and nice, to the side. Okay? Again, do it again. Exactly. She has solid control. Now let's see if I can do the same by grabbing her wrist. Nice. Kick first and then turn to the side. Kick first and turn to the side. Exactly.
And that's how you escape a wrist hold.

[@karimahlove8642]

Or use your other hand to knock in their elbow breaking their arm

[@ronni3869]

Jesus girl chillax

[@maid_kr4t0s10]

or just use simple grappling in retaliation

[@atanassimeonovski3548]

It's not that easy to break an arm as you think especially if they have some more muscle on there

[@its_minarose]

Bahahahahhahaha

[@Koerkaore]

Lets see How many subs.can I get from this comments it's helpful

[@dee.lovesyou5313]

I have one, if it’s your right hand, and their right hand, (or left with left) twist your wrist around and above their wrist and grab their wrist, and with your other arm, push them to the ground. Works really well

[@sageosho9496]

What about when a guy three times your size grabs you by both wrist

[@nathanhamers9160]

Then you kick that guy in the nuts as hard as you can and hope he goes knockout

[@ileanagheorghisor]

yeah... today i got my both wrists grabed by a guy 2 times my size and i couldn't even move my hands, what about counter attacking :/ it's impossible for a girl to react at this type of grabs. we are simply not strong enough to twist or do something

[@yauhenipyrkh2691]

How spaced out are you to let a guy 3 times your size grab both of your wrists? you let it happen, you are probably proper fu*ked cause you have no idea how to fight

[@LA-sh9jh]

Bite him while kicking em in the nuts

[@sharonjay5858]

Yauheni Pyrkh what planet do you live on where you think women “LET” men assault them???? Some men are pushy and use their size and strength to their advantage even on sober women. Wake up, man.

[@carlyscovers28]

Thank you! I have an actual fear of people grabbing my wrist so this video was very helpful!

[@Izzy-]

As my brother started to get older, he's 15 now and now have more muscular power than me. Often during fight, he just grab my hands and starts twisting it. I even complained to my parents too but all went in vain, they asked him to not grab me or physically hurt me while having arguments. But that block head won't listen now I've to take matters in my hand and here I'm now.

[@mariroberts2462]

It's cute how he says nice with his perfect accent

[@Liontail100]

Today in my self-defense class we focused on body manipulation--hitting pressure points when attacked, instead of fighting back (so it works on everyone, regardless of strength, size, or fighting skill). One of the techniques we learned was when in a wrist grab, to rub either up or down their forearm--one way was for males, the other for females. There was also a spot you can hit on the wrist, just above the bone. Do you have any videos on that, or do you know of any sites or videos where I can review this technique? I've been teaching someone on my hall self-defense and krav maga, and when I tried the wrist grab move on him, his grip was so strong that I had trouble escaping. I'm worried that strength WILL matter in some cases, particularly when someone isn't very strong themselves (size doesn't matter because large people aren't necessarily strong). Thanks!

[@Quicez]

This guy is a great teacher

[@cmccann4]

The second grab is poor. A guy or anyone will have enough strength to hold it off. Pressure test it. You should look to turn the other way and grab on.

[@VypaGaming]

My dad experienced, u only need 1 hand and that's the hand you're being grabbed with, just rotate your hand around theres and then u can grab theres the second after u do it or not (this works with any part of the body

Ces techniques de self viennent fortifier ma valeur ajoutée, Mercie infiniment

[@ImMooseInzaghi]

dear Howcast, one video at a time!!

[@desismoot7365]

its way easier to grab the hand yourself and and keep going in a circle than letting go

[@xcecchsx]

First technique will work on average even strong people, but the other technique definitely will not work with someone who has a big strong arm. Better techniques on Krav maga or other systems..

[@michaelclay8471]

A good solid Shin kick or hard finger jab to the eye intractable or maybe both

[@Snakesinthetrees]

What if they throw a punch and aren’t static?

[@robsenior9502]

And in the mean time , you get punched in the teeth with the free hand .

[@BoswAkay74u]

Not when you don’t expect it. Remember this is a demo therefore it’s done in slow motion. In the real world you apply a technique fast and the attacker usually doesn’t expect it, especially in women🤷🏾‍♂️

[@vibes5566]

Looked up in the arm hold, escaped:)

[@usamazahid3882]

Howcast, I want to know, is there a technique on how to counter the wristlock when a wristlock is already in place?

[@Viomaliha]

But what if both wrists are grabbed tightly?!

[@Aloksheoran]

+Viomaliha give him all your money

[@MSEVILTOKE]

Use your forehead and smash their nose :)

[@Untitled1309]

Viomaliha hit with knees or try hitting a kick on the head between the hands

[@hottakebabe3842]

You bring your hands in, then out over theirs in a wide half circle. It will break their grip if you do it hard enough

[@hrwdhs]

try leg choke... it didnt work for me...

[@PKGMadhavPandeyleet]

how to escape our figures???if some is trying to crush them?

[@XclusiveChiq]

im gonna do this

[@hakokk]

Say hi to this person!

[@MrChucktredgett]

Im no martial arts expert, but if some one grabs you with one hand, go through the thumb, breaking a thumb is far easier than breaking 4 other fingers. The thumb is the weak point. But also a strong point

[@Pedobearcrap911]

Oh gawd Howcast has 1 million subs oh jeez

[@zoemidad2198]

my mom always puts me in a wrist lock.

[@maggiemiddleton8760]

Thanks

[@ashy1098]

U could also twist your arm around the other way and grab their arm

[@beefanly4315]

Or just do a hammer fist ( Heian Shodan Kata in Shotokan Karate. )

[@lesliems19]

Its funny how he keeps saying And Niiiice!!

[@adry4405]

Someone did that to me but the problem is the strenght. That person was using their strenght to grab my wrist and i think if i would do that it won't work because that person has a strenght bigger then mine so if i did that the persons hand would not move because of the strenght and it will not help..

[@jowo429]

Instructions unclear i got shot

[@kickkarate3423]

Good Sir

[@shaniel2500]

thats the best way

[@diamondemerald116]

How do you escape a hold where you are on your knees with your upper body on a couch like doggy style

[@Who_are_-u]

The guy talking to the camera, the women looking at him intensely

[@test025]

I learned karate and noww this. I don't wanna hit my father though. So I am watching this

[@randyoneill1792]

it worked

[@zoeykaye5519]

I find it easier to twist your wrist till your holding theirs and then twist theirs, they’ll let go eventually 😂

[@Nevergiveup-jt1tb]

2:18 kick hr there and see the magic, "period" will start immediately😂😂😂😂😂

[@ibugcyclist]

That's how you escape a wrist hold from a polite attacker who grabs you and stands still letting you do those things to them.

[@AndrewBishop1971]

The comments are better than watching the video :)

[@Frantic618]

This would have made a lot more sense if, after the explanation, the man would have grabbed the woman, and we could see her get out of it. Waste of time.

[@vistigioful]

They just wanna hold hands.

[@bloodymary7651]

Bending their little finger back also releases their grip

[@shafnafina9020]

See I can't even move my hand when my brother holds my hand tightly he is very strong ,what do I do ??

[@khadijahjones1050]

So if hes stronger that would do what exactly??

[@Skylardietsche]

Khadijah Jones It still works... I have a had a very strong male friend that held my wrist and I could break free. I, however, "snake twisted" my arm around his with speed. Don't know if that makes sense, I don't have any training, just three 6'2 older brothers :)

[@bellataleysnik5471]

Khadijah Jones you use speed and your brain. strength is not everything.

[@ngakipatu7581]

bella taleysnik exactly ;P

[@HilaryH4ever]

What happens if they grab you with 2 hands?

[@rosabarache8359]

whats her name??

[@momo_mochii]

Bruh my friend twists my hand for fun and I’m watching this to defend myself-

[@FHT_Edits]

I am watching this because my friend twisted my hand for no reason....

[@ashivadsworld2515]

What if both arms where held

[@michelleurbanovitch2143]

But u can also bite them. Like if the crab ur throat from in the front u but ur chin down and then bite them like really hard. That happen to me once but I bite them so hard that that my teeth marks are super deep lol

[@ethannugent6704]

There was this relay heavy kid he was like 200 pounds and I bit his arm cuz he was sitting on me and I kinda took a chunk out of his flesh, on accident.

[@deliacanico7288]

this goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

[@muzankibutsuji3101]

god make sure that I don't break anyone's hand😬🤣

[@atharv7353]

When this happens, I'll either use my other arm to attack the opponent's arm, or I'll kick him in the gut

[@badxkittyx8041]

what to do if someone grabs my dress and rotates at the other why it pains what to do?

[@michaelclay8471]

That is not efficient immobilization that will turn into a tug of war that will get you hurt badly if not killed

[@berengerdietiker22]

What baloney! Forget about tugging yourself free from an attacker's grip! If someone grabs you by your wrist, arm, lapel, hair or even throat with one hand, you must inflict damage upon that person as soon as possible. They could have a weapon in their free hand or be balling that hand into a fist with which to punch you. Fact is, the hand gripping you is not the real threat.

[@melodyofflowers4805]

watch this video all of you

[@unmilou5916]

Good acting

[@solitaryangelx66]

ineffective what is opponent is too strong?

[@zelalnurali9212]

it actually works, i tried it with my dad

[@samuelepannocchi4248]

zelal nurali you cannot try with someone random...sometimes thing works but if you change the partner that doesn't work anymore. Your partner have to hold you firmly like a person thatt wan't to hurt you. Maybe your father isn't the right person to try this ;)

[@zelalnurali9212]

Samuele Pannocchi it works for me but not everyone is the same lol

[@CzechRiot]

+zelal nurali Fathers, brothers, boyfriends, etc. would never grab you full force. It does depend a lot on whether the guy also is strong or is just a regular sedentary computer working person. I know I could never grab a girl with real strength, cause it does hurt (I tried it on myself, like grabbing my other wrist and squeezing). I lift weights though, so I'm much stronger than the average joe.

[@aaroncabrera8949]

Hapkido locks usually always work with individuals of all sizes. What we're seeing in the video is a derivative of Hapkido, which is the art of joint locking. These locks, when done correctly with the proper training, mostly deal intense damage and stress to joints, no matter how big the person is. Also, if one lock to the joint doesn't exactly work to your satisfaction, there are many other joint locks to the same joint that may work to your liking. The key isn't just doing the moves, the key is the technique and the way in which you do them. They involve body movement, and leg movement to ensure effective results. I'm a yellow belt in Hapkido and I realized this from the start demonstrating different joint lock techniques on individuals of all sizes in the dojang.

[@imacooltroll]

Chuck Norris Jr?

[@rcyu]

yeah get the smallest possible person to be the attacker yup that's realistic

[@dolamike584]

With these techniques you should hand over your wallet or just keep your mouth shut.

[@alexeyepifanov2684]

This works with ladies only )))

[@niconicoo5661]

that woman is a beauty

[@linnycraft70]

I’m here cuz this douchebag in my tech class twisted my arm 😐

[@tylerw12488]

There's an a lot easier way to escape an wrist hold. You just punch the persons wrist until they let go.

[@nagatouzumaki8227]

Every martial arts video on KZbin is fake

[@leduda4816]

Nu merge

[@eddy5562]

This will never work - have someone same strength or stronger try this and you will never escape the hold this way. If you do not know what you’re doing DO NOT teach self-défense, you are putting people’s lives in danger for KZbin views

[@natesmith9185]

I really hate howcast.. as soon as that intro pops up that’s a back click,

[@CzechRiot]

That works only with weak people, like lowlife thugs, homeless people, etc. If the guy is reasonably "manly" it doesn't work. Biting works better...

[@jamienorth1603]

You've clearly never done BJJ then, you use their strength you your advantage

[@CzechRiot]

Itz Northy You've clearly never been in real fights.

[@jamienorth1603]

+CzechRiot where you panic and start acting like a thug and don't take them down and put them in a submission

[@CzechRiot]

Itz Northy How old are you kid?

[@jamienorth1603]

+CzechRiot don't try and change the subject, type into KZbin BJJ in real fight and 99% of the time with a skilled person, they'll win
