|
| This file will teach you how you can kill another person with your own two |
| hands. The information presented here will be very helpful to the beginner and |
| will also serve as a refresher for those of you already familiar with the |
| subject. |
|
|
| I will start off by talking about basic things such as stance, what you should |
| and shouldn't do when fighting and other information that the beginner will |
| need to know. Then, I will give you a list of over 20 vulnerable points that |
| one should always try attacking in a fight along with the way these points |
| should be attacked. Finally, I will give you some more fighting tips and |
| information on how you can continue learning about hand-to-hand combat. |
|
|
| ^*^ |
|
|
| Now, let me discuss some of the basics you will need to know when you are in |
| any combat situation. |
|
|
| Stance |
| ------ |
| The best stance when confronting an enemy is to put your feet at shoulders |
| length apart and your arms should be facing forward, parallel to each other and |
| bent at the elbows. Keep your knees slightly bent and stand on the balls of |
| your feet. |
|
|
| Remember, you always want to maintain this stance when you are not striking at |
| the enemy. |
|
|
| Balance |
| ------- |
| It is always important that you keep your balance. If you use the stance I have |
| described above, you will never have to worry about it. If by chance you do |
| lose your balance even for a second you can kiss your ass goodbye as the enemy |
| will probably kill you. |
|
|
| Aggressiveness |
| -------------- |
| Always be aggressive and always attack. Don't just stand back and defend |
| yourself against the enemy's strikes as he will end up killing you eventually. |
| If you are not aggressive, the enemy will think you are scared and he will have |
| an advantage over you. |
|
|
| A great thing to do is yell at the enemy. This will scare the shit out of him |
| if you start yelling at him and plus it also allows you to get more oxygen in |
| your lungs so you will have more strength. |
|
|
| Natural Weapons |
| --------------- |
| Your natural weapons are as follows: knife edge of either hand, the heel of |
| your hands, your fingers folded at the second knuckle, your boot, your elbow, |
| your knees, your teeth, your fore finger and second finger forming a "V" shape, |
| and your fist. These body parts alone are some of the most powerful weapons you |
| can use. |
|
|
| ^*^ |
|
|
| Since you now know the basics of fighting, let me list for you the best places |
| where you should strike your enemy. |
|
|
| Temple |
| ------ |
| A sharp blow to the temple ensures instant death since there is a large artery |
| and nerve located close to the skin surface. If you give a medium blow to the |
| temple it will cause severe pain and concussion but a hard blow will kill the |
| enemy instantly. The best way to strike the temple is with the knife edge of |
| your hand or if he is on the ground you can kick him with the toe of your boot. |
|
|
| Eyes |
| ---- |
| The eyes are a great place to strike if you can since a good strike in the eyes |
| will cause temporary or permanent blindness. To blind the enemy, make a "V" |
| shape with your fore finger and second finger and stick them into his eyes |
| while keeping your fingers stiff. Also, you can gouge the eyes with your thumb. |
|
|
| Nose |
| ---- |
| The nose is another excellent place to attack. Hit the bridge with the knife |
| edge of your hand and you will cause breakage, severe pain, temporary blindness |
| and even death. Or you can use the palm of your hand to strike upwards and push |
| the nose up into his brain. If done hard enough the nose bone will puncture his |
| brain and he will die. |
|
|
| Upper Lip |
| --------- |
| The upper lip contains a lot of nerves close to the skin surface so if you |
| strike it with the knife edge of your hand it will cause great pain and if |
| delivered hard enough he will become unconscious. |
|
|
| Mouth |
| ----- |
| If the enemy is on the ground, use the heel of your boot and strike him on the |
| mouth. Since there are a lot of veins and arteries in the teeth there will be a |
| lot of blood which will frighten the enemy and he will lose concentration on |
| defending other parts of his body. |
|
|
| Chin |
| ---- |
| The chin should only be struck with the palm of your hand as you can break your |
| fingers on the enemy's chin. Use the palm of your hand and strike the enemy |
| with a very strong upward blow. This will cause extreme discomfort. |
|
|
| Adam's Apple |
| ------------ |
| Usually the enemy will defend this part of his body well but if you do get the |
| chance give it a sharp hit with the knife edge of your hand. If you hit it hard |
| enough you will bust his windpipe and he will die. You can also squeeze the |
| Adam's Apple between your fingers. |
|
|
| Esophagus |
| --------- |
| If you have a chance to get a hold of his neck, press your thumbs into his |
| esophagus (located below the Adam's Apple). Pushing hard will be very painful |
| and it will block the oxygen flow to his lungs and he will die quickly. |
|
|
| Neck |
| ---- |
| If you give a very strong blow to the base of the neck with the knife edge of |
| your hand you will usually break it. However, if it is not hard enough, the |
| enemy might just be knocked unconscious so be sure to hit him in the temple or |
| twist his neck around to be sure he is dead. The neck is the best place to hit |
| someone if you want to be quiet as it is quick and the enemy goes down without |
| a word. |
|
|
| Collar Bone |
| ----------- |
| The collar bone is an extremely sensitive part of the body. A sharp blow to it |
| with the knife edge of your hand or your elbow gives the enemy excruciating |
| pain. Also, digging your finger into the collar bone can bring your enemy to |
| his knees. |
|
|
| Shoulder |
| -------- |
| The shoulder is easy dislocated and it takes little strength to do. However, it |
| should be done quickly. Grab the enemy's arm and pull it behind his back and |
| then jerk it upwards quickly. You should here a popping sound which means you |
| have dislocated the enemy's shoulder. There are other methods of doing this but |
| this is the easiest. |
|
|
| Armpit |
| ------ |
| Although it is hard to get at, the armpit has a large network of nerves. If the |
| enemy is on the ground, hold up his arm and then kick him in his pit. This will |
| cause severe pain. However, it is not a very common place that will be struck |
| in a fight but is good to keep in mind anyways. |
|
|
| Rib Cage |
| -------- |
| A strike to the rib cage with your fingers folded at the second knuckle is |
| rather painful and if done hard enough causes severe pain and breakage. Only |
| use your fingers folded at the second knuckle since that hurts the most. |
|
|
| Solar Plexus |
| ------------ |
| The solar plexus is located on the chest at the little "V" shaped point where |
| the rib cage ends. There are a large amount of nerves so a blow with the |
| knuckle of your second finger can cause severe pain and even unconsciousness. |
|
|
| Floating Ribs |
| ------------- |
| The floating ribs are the lower ribs located at the front and sides of the |
| enemy's body. Use the knife edge of your hand or the heel or toe of your boot. |
| The blow will cause pain and will stun the enemy. |
|
|
| Spine |
| ----- |
| A blow to the spine with the heel of your boot can paralyze or kill your enemy. |
| The lower spine between the enemy's kidneys is the best place to hit as that is |
| the least protected part of the spine. You will only be able to attack the |
| spine when your enemy is on the ground or if his back is turned to you. |
|
|
| Kidneys |
| ------- |
| The kidneys have two large nerves that are close to the skin surface. If you |
| strike the kidneys hard it will cause death. You can use a fist or the knife |
| edge of your hand to hit the kidneys. Or a kick with the heel of your boot will |
| work too. |
|
|
| Groin |
| ----- |
| The groin is a good place to strike if you get the chance. Generally, the enemy |
| will protect this area the most but if you have a chance, strike it with your |
| knee in an upward motion or with your fist. I'm sure you can imagine the pain |
| the enemy will get from it. |
|
|
| Tailbone |
| -------- |
| The tailbone which is located above the anus is a very sensitive part of the |
| body as a lot of spinal nerves are located there. Use the toe of your boot to |
| strike the tailbone. The pain from that is unbelievably severe. |
|
|
| Elbow |
| ----- |
| The elbow is easy to break or dislocate. Pull the enemy's arm behind him and |
| with the palm of your hand push his elbow inwards until it either cracks or |
| pops. When the enemy has a useless arm, you have a great advantage over him. |
|
|
| Fingers |
| ------- |
| The fingers should be broken because the enemy becomes almost helpless with |
| broken fingers. Grab the enemy's arm with one hand and with the other hand push |
| the fingers upwards until they snap. It is only necessary to break the first |
| two fingers. It is also helpful in breaking a grip. |
|
|
| Knee |
| ---- |
| You can destroy the knee by kicking it with the side of your boot in an upward |
| motion. This will rip the ligaments and the cartilage. This will cause |
| unbelievable pain and make it impossible for the enemy to move around. Once a |
| knee has been ruined, you will have a great advantage over the enemy. |
|
|
| Ankle |
| ----- |
| If the enemy is on the ground, get a hold of his ankle and twist it until it |
| snaps. This will make it almost impossible for him to walk and he will then be |
| easy to kill. |
|
|
| ^*^ |
|
|
| Let me talk about some more important things you should remember when you are |
| fighting somebody. |
|
|
| Tactics |
| ------- |
| Always try to throw your enemy off balance. You can do this by charging the |
| enemy and pretending to strike him. This will make him flinch and lose his |
| balance. |
|
|
| Always look for a weak spot and attack it. Whenever he leaves a vulnerable part |
| of his body unprotected attack it with all your strength. By doing this, he |
| will then try to protect the part of his body that you just struck thus leaving |
| even more unprotected parts open. |
|
|
| Use any available object that you can. By this I mean throw sand in his eyes, |
| block his strikes by hitting him with a large branch, or any other kind of |
| available material that can be used as a weapon against him. |
|
|
| Foul Play |
| --------- |
| In a life or death situation there is no such thing as foul play and there are |
| no rules either. Although hitting someone in the groin is considered a cheap |
| shot in high school, it is a very effective way of destroying your enemy. Just |
| hit him where you can and kick him when he's down. That way, he will never get |
| back up again. |
|
|
| ^*^ |
|
|
| I have now explained to you the basics of fighting and the best places to |
| attack your enemy on his body. Just because you have read this file doesn't |
| mean you will be able to go out and kick somebody's ass in. These methods take |
| a lot of practice in order to do them properly. |
|
|
| If you enjoyed this file and would like to practice these methods get a partner |
| who is also interested in this and work on each type of strike and kick. When |
| you first start out, go slowly and remember that these methods are deadly and |
| do not require much force to be effective so take it easy on your partner. |
|
|
| Some of you may decide that practicing is not enough and you would like to |
| learn more than what I have told you in the above. Well, there are several good |
| books with illustrations on this subject which go into much more detail than I |
| ever could in this file. The book I used mainly to write this file was "The |
| Marine Corps Field Manual on Physical Security". You can get this book through |
| a good book store or if you happen to know a marine, he can get you a copy very |
| easily. |
|
|
| There are also camps where you can go for 1-2 weeks to learn all sorts of |
| things like this such as firing weapons, detailed hand-to-hand combat, doing |
| raids on enemies and all sorts of other stuff like that. The instructors that |
| teach these programs are well trained and have had years of experience with |
| this. However, usually you have to be 18 years or older to get into these |
| programs and you have to be very serious about it as well. This is not one of |
| those programs where you can say "Time-out, I need to rest." They don't stop |
| just to suit you. To get more information about these programs, you can usually |
| find out about them in magazines like "Soldier of Fortune" and other magazines |
| with similar theme. |
|
|
| ^*^ |
|
|
| Well, that's it for now. Perhaps in the future I can discuss the fun stuff like |
| fighting people with knives and all the other lethal weapons you can use in a |
| fight. If you liked this file, let me know and I will continue on with this |
| subject. |
