Thats very interesting, coz I've been thinking the same. And just thinking about if one of their female friends does the Abandoned for 24hrs in a foreign country with no money fills me with dread. 😵😵😵 No way I am doing that as a female.

[@deivytrajan]

Nice video and all but the knife defence should be used only in life / death situation. If robber is trying to steal your money - just give it to them. Better do that than die or be in hospital for months and potentially handicapped for the rest of the life. These "knife defence" tricks won't work 99% of the time in live resistance.

[@Rack47]

As someone who has actual training for those situations, and also have been in multiple knife fights. I can assure ya'll that most of the times it won't work, especially not just a KZbin tutorial. Knife fights get ugly. And as we say, ''winner goes to the hospital and the loser goes to the morgue.''

[@DJTheMetalheadMercenary]

@@Rack47 Indeed. Up close and personal with knife fighting will not leave anyone unscathed, best to escape/ evade as much as possible before giving up or trying to fight back (the last resort-- but being trained in the last resort is obviously useful in the .0001% likely situation (at least in the US)).

[@Rack47]

@@DJTheMetalheadMercenary I mean, even the best trained people KNOWS it's nasty, and w ill try to escape the situation, at least what I know from my experience. I'd always try to get away. And I almost always carry a knife for self defence, but it is last resort! And it's a way bigger chance that I'd have to use it against an animal, than another person where I currently live. Already had to defend myself from animals a few times.

[@DJTheMetalheadMercenary]

@@Rack47 Yep, very true all around dude, same here.

[@Rack47]

@@DJTheMetalheadMercenary In my opinion knives for self defence towards other people is close to impossible. The person holding the knife has a bigger chance to get injured than the attacker. Unless you're properly trained of course.

Dear Yes Theory, I have a great opportunity for you! I am a college kid that lives in Montana. I have watched and enjoyed you guys for years now, and I can definitely say I am a part of the Yes Theory family. Montana is absolutely the best place on earth to live. From intense hikes in Glacer National Park, to surfing on the biggest fresh water lake west of the Mississippi, Montana has it all. It seems to me that when people think of Montana, they think of people riding horses to school and living in shacks without and electricity. While some of that is somewhat true, there is much more to Montana than just that. I would like to show you guys around Kalispell Montana to have you experience the Montana way of life!

Definitely worth contacting Jason about that idea, or another professional (who has extensive experience stemming from Mexico and fighting the Cartels) named Ed Calderon, they're two of the top in the field offering this kind of training to civilians openly.
