The child's coffin line never fails to get a laugh from me. It's only slightly less funny than the note questioning if the money clip should be engraved.
This is a real self defense technique. The idea is to kick to keep them back from you so you can find an opening to scutch away or run. But there’s a certain way to get up and it’s usually taught to young adults-adults, not children. Cause it’s not really effective when a kid does it
See us in the Southwest suburbs of Chicago weren't graced with JJ's presence. I don't really remember any stranger danger talks. MOSTLY because our "village"/"township" was mostly gated neighborhoods and upper-middle class people whose parents owned their businesses in cute things like medical practices, construction companies, law firms, or insurance in my family's case. SO... our very well funded police department was always out patrolling for the first non-white, non-asian (including india but not the middle east) looking person, since most often than not, they didn't belong there.
@@Frostiken NO, definitely not in Naperville. Cook County. I think Naperville is DuPage. WOW, have no idea how I got that county right. BUT ANYWHO... I was on the Cook County Will county border.
At my school rather than talk about stranger danger they just put up 5 posters around the school that all said "don't trust strangers." And the only real assemblies we had were to tell us to go out and sell wrapping paper to strangers and as a reward the top 20 students would get to ride in a limousine....driven by strangers.
I had the opposite experience, I knew about this bit and when the Bittenbinder tape popped up on RLM I was actively rooting for Rich to lose the game so they'd have to watch that one
I actually looked up Bittenbinder a while back, and found a recording of a presentation he gave to a bunch of adults (mostly women). Honestly, his advice was pretty good. Here's a paraphrase from part of it: "Let's say that a guy jumps out of a car, points a gun at you, and says 'Get in!'. Now, what are the odds that if you run, he's actually gonna shoot at you? Not very high, but let's say 50%. Now, if he does shoot at you, what are the chances he'll actually hit you? Not very high, but let's say 50%. Now, if he hits you, what are the chances you'll be seriously injured or killed? Not very high, but let's say 50%. Put that all together, and if you run away, your chance of being injured or killed is just 12.5%. That's really low, and you'd take those odds, right? Wanna know the real number? 2%. If you don't listen to him and run away, your odds of getting away fine are 98%."
