MMA Fighters try Women’s Self Defense: episode 8 (featuring an actual woman!) 

For the slap thing you did it wrong, you forgot to pass out

Wrong technique. More chi necessary. Maybe add a hadouken afterwards.

”It’s almost as if strength and size matters in a real fight”.... 👍

Later that night... Mrs. Dewey: "Ramsey dear, what's the feminine hand prints on the side of your neck...?"

5 minute crafts: "How to defend against a rear bear hug by twerking on your attacker. Next week, we show how to defend against a left hook by doing the Macarena."

"Hey Joyce, how was work?" "Pretty fun, I slapped and chocked a guy for a video."

If you watch closely when Ramsey does the slap he actually did it wrong, he's supposed to hit it with the exact area of 3.72mm^2 and with the part of the hand, rotated 0.3radians about the wrist, where the initial position is palm inwards vertically straight, and there should by an upwards rotation of (pi)/4 radians - then even with a force of 0.1 Newtons would you be able to render your opponent unalive

still not wearing the yoga pants, so its not gonna work edit: came back to this comment a month later and its on 551 likes wtf

The real problem is: you're not using the amerido-te teachings from master ken in the thrust of freedom. And about the slap, obviously you're suposed to do that with an ak-47 in your hand, so that when it fires, the hot cartridge goes into the clothes of the oponent, and he gets VERY unconfortable.

4:45 if this is supposed to protect you from rape, you're really just doing half the work for them

Ramseys comment "its almost like its imposible to move trough solid object" got me laughing so hard i almost choke soo maybe humor is one way of defeating attacker i guess

I really liked that trick with peeling a finger. I don't care how big and strong you are, if someone grabs your finger with their whole hand and twists it, you ARE going to feel it. You can usually do the same with other sensitive parts. You can always insert a finger into the other's nose and rip it apart, and once again, that person will feel it. Those are the kind of things that are usually considered as "fighting dirty", but if you are on the street, you have to consider every situation as a life/death encounter, so you should never shy away from those dirty tricks, especially if you are being caught off guard.

The fact that this video consists of a woman slapping a man quite hard, followed by calm explanations of the man is so hilarious and made me genuinely laugh. Thx, has a great time watching this video.

Oh I know what went wrong here 5:09 You forgot to say: "My booty is mine, it belongs to me, you cannot have my boo-ty" And then you thrust with all your might 😂👌

The Fingergrab at the end is even in medieval fighting Manuals when it comes to wrestling

Nothing shall defeat the Aerobic Butt defense !

these videos that teach women and other vulnerable people "self-defence" are so dangerous that it should be a downright crime to spread information like that. Hope these videos go viral like the original "self-defence" videos do

You forgot the part where she pays you to fall down.

I'm thinking the people from 5-minute crafts are where the only thumb downs come from.

That woman comes off as a silent badass

LMAO that girl has no mercy, she maid your neck pretty red.

I came for self defense videos not physics! P.S. Jordan is looking way prettier today. Loved the hair.

My little siblings were play fighting and one of them performed the unconsensual choke Before separating them i thought it's be a good idea to show them how to stop this, since it's such an awful choke to begin with. I just told them to push the hands outside, horizontally, from the inside - and it was that simple. If a 9 year old can stop the choke by being told what to do once, i don't see why there's an entire industry dedicated to stopping this choke and non of them can get one that works

“It’s almost as if it’s impossible to move through solid matter” 😂😂😂😂😂

Punching into the Adams apple would lead to better results.

I’m horrified as a woman that so many wrong self defense things are shown in the tv.

The women in ur example slapped u way harder then the girl giving the tip

Thanks for destroying myths that get people hurt.

Lol I got a women's self defence ad before this video

I'm short. I was lucky to be taught by Grandmaster Vince Palumbo on how to protect myself on the streets. He said it wasn't a one size fits all in martial arts. That everyone has a weakness, but can compensate. My weaknesses is being short, and weak in muscles. My strength is being able to use my weight (to use for force), flexibility, running, and ability to protect myself in small spaces. When I watch MMA, I pay attention to the short fighters. I've learnt they aren't good at punching tall fighters. Short fighters are good at wrestling. Short fighters also have an easy ability to sweep a tall fighter off their feet. Grandmaster Vince Palumbo would often tell me "imagine an attacker or monster. It can have four arms, be tall, and have big muscles. How would you defend yourself?...I recommend you run. But if you can't , show me what would you do? Practice everyday how to defend yourself. Be confident...not cocky."

A friend once hit the side of her neck on a filing cabinet and nearly passed out so a "chop" to the artery likely can cause some people to go unconsciousness (but not reliably). Women generally have less muscle protecting the artery so that was probably a factor.

bro. you're my new hero. this videos are HILARIOUS! before the internet was a thing, THOUSANDS of women were getting scammed by self-defense courses with no way to verify their legitimacy. nowadays there's just no excuse not to do your homework.

There's just simply no escape from the two-handed rape choke, it's one of the most deadly techniques ever invented. Some interesting facts: The two-handed rape choke was first described by Alexander the Great in 328 BC after witnessing ancient Kazakh practices, later on it was perfected by the Japanese who called it the Ho Rapi Joku.

Like another commenter mentioned with that first technique, it's actually a solid idea, but she did it wrong and expected too much out of it. You can get a nice hit, striking anywhere on the side of the neck with your hand, but not with a slap, but with a chop. And even then, you won't knock someone out, you'll get a bit of pain, which is a nice way to open them up for other things.

Great video! Keep up the bad jokes :D It was great to see her putting effort into those slaps, it does give you more authority when disproving the techniques. So keep up the good work, I'm loving your videos 👍

Getting people to walk inside the bridge of the hand on a choke is downright evil, they re setting people up to be bashed, i loved the "Its almost like i cant faze through solid matter" line, ill use it from now on, thank you coach.

How can she slap?!

The lights are still on and the assailant is angry. Boxing has better tricks than this.

Ramsey Dewey - Man of Steel

Great video ❤️ Ive seen a video of some guys who seem to be soldiers, and one is saying "that would never work" and the other guy said "then let me try it" and when the guy does, he does more like a judo chop and the other guy seems to get dizzy and fall back... I dont believe it really works, but at least seems better than a slap... I think that hit on the chin could be a ko strike if done correctly... So even if it wouldnt end in a ko, that hit on the neck would hurt alot (the one in the video i saw)

"I tried, I really tried" by God you did woman his neck looks like a tomato

RU-vid recommended. I subbed. Thanks for making these videos. I'm now even more interested in martial arts for fitness and health.

You forgot foot stomp and teleport out already, Ramsey? I find your lack of chi disturbing.

Thanks to videos like these people are going to be better educated on what would really work actual situation. Great job!

how come all these self defense vids that include a bear hug never account for the more then likely event of being tossed to the ground? Joyce is a good sport.

I love this series. And your videos. I still don’t know why you don’t have more subscribers. You deserve more!

hey Ramsey Dewey great video, a quick question. What if she did a judo chop on your neck possibly hitting the artery would doing that render a opponent unconscious?

Ramsey, I found your page yesterday and I already love it. I am a black belt in Tae Kwon Do and spent 20 years in the Army learning various other fighting styles along the way. One thing I will say, and obviously it's only my opinion, is you knew this technique was coming. Even if you think you weren't bracing for it, you probably were in some form or fashion. This technique works in the right circumstances and usually those circumstances are when the technique is unexpected and generally with a bit more force. Just my thoughts.

Captain you're a human, not a vulcan.

Good job! Inefficient self defence can mean even worse assault or even death. These women’s self defence vids are noble but dangerous. Good you’re killing the myth!

A "karate chop" style hit to the back of the jaw/ear area can really throw someone off but no where near enough to get a K.O

Love the better ideas part👍 I feel like sometimes people forget, that if they were to defend themselves from an attack, they would want to really HURT the attacker....

Ramsey, once I was training Kung Fu and the gym's teacher said that one of the best ways to escape from a bear hug is to relax the body and just make the weight do the job untill the opponent leaves you. Can you test this technique, since I've never recieved a bear hug after those clases.

I love Nils. Every technique he does is literally the simplest thing you could possibly do, and it always works

I had a dude who was an 8th degree in aikido, another high rank in Japanese jujutsu, and had been doing karate his whole life as well. He showed me a strike to the side of the neck and I went black, woke up to his hand in my face offering to help me up lol. Personally I don't want to have to train for 60 some years just to be able to pull off a super accurate strike that he was showing, especially considering a real fight is so chaotic and adrenaline etc. Rather have solid boxing/kickboxung, bjj, and wrestling and not rely on pseudo-mystic pressure points.

"It's almost as if it's impossible to move through solid matter." Never before have I heard something dripping with so much with sarcasm.

The real question is why are so many women posting videos featuring ineffective self-defense moves? It defies logic.

The dryness of the humor on these is so awesome.

Why slap when you can just punch the neck?

"So you think strength and size matter?" *nods quietly* hahahaha

Yeah but ramsey wadda you know about fighting? There were too many rules limiting the technique

I threw some criticism at one of your videos. I've just finished watching the playlist. Laughed my ass off and the advice is actually sound. Good work. (Didn't want to leave without acknowledging that.)

She (?Joyce?) is really enjoying slapping Ramsey without any risk of retribution :D. 4:35 isnt that that successful butt defense from aerobic self-defense?

ive recently learned that tow trucks work even when wet and now i learn that we cant phase through solid matter... so much to learn!

I love this series 😂😂😂 it always tickles my funny bones. If you want to defend against bear hugs, there's this cool move I saw in the Bubishi and in an uechi-ryu kata bunkai - If it's an overarm bearhug with intent to control your movement or suplex or whatever, simply move forward (as much as possible) to create a little space btw your opponent's crotch and your butt, then proceed to ram one of your hands down to his crotch and grab your opponent's crown jewels while simultaneously moving the other hand upwards to loosen his grip. Finally, after he's let go, finish him off and get the f**k away from there! The finger thing works too!

Need to see more of Nils! "Yah, you just break it". Wow, what a simple common sense approach to self defense.

Honestly., a friend of mine (also a woman mind you), told me that the slap on the neck would work and someone would pass out. I told her she can try it on me and never in her life succeed. It's just flat out better to just throw a punch on the throat instead.

Ramsey probably had a *Good* time on the _"Bear Hug Part"_ 😂😂😂😂

Yes, But how does that all stack up against the Lethal Iron Panda Claw Technique?

My concern is that the same "neck attack" technique if misdirected WOULD burst your ear drum. I'm glad that your student was accurate in her strike. I am hooked on your channel. Thank you.

This is a great technique to piss of your opponent ahaha

I havw been watching a few of your videos and its good to see someone showing proper self defence techniques that require ZERO training to do and that arent bullshit you earnt a subscriber and your also funny as fuck and you have a no bullshit approach to these defence moves which is just great to see keep up the awesome work

In all honesty the best thing you can do in a fight is not be there!

I always get a good laugh with this series of videos. I would advice those who want to learn self defence to join a dojo wich has some solid proof that their students know what they're doing and what is the basic idea behind their fighting art... and that they can utilise the skills they're tought. Thanks for doing these, they actually help to better analyze the techniques and skills that are tought to me in my dojo. Started krav maga 2 weeks ago and I just got a bettet motivation learning it.

ramsey. you need to wear high heels. for that technique to work...

I can't wait to see what happens when you guys try the historical european martial arts technique

Maybe your opponent dies of laughter, if someone slaps me lile that im lime wtff xddd

OMG on the very last one, when Nils tapped it sounded like his finger broke. I actually jumped.

Debbi!!

This guy is hilarious, when you see him you see a guy who is ripped, head shaved, deep voice and a serious face so you expect it to be a rude guy or something and he is chill as fuck, a really nice dude

All these effortless escapes don’t seem to work. It’s almost like you'd actually need to learn how to fight 🤯

i watched now every single video of your MMA figthers try womens defense ! BEST SPENT TIME IN MY WHOLE LIFE! and i live a exciting Life but your VIDS crack me up i was laughing the whole time god bless you brother one of the best channels on youtube you have.

This guy should play hitman.

*Gets open hand slapped multiple times on the neck* “It is...uncomfortable”

Ramsey, surely a grown man should be able to utilize the techniques to escape the grip of a woman who likely isn't close to half his strength and especially so if she offers no resistance, right? Just saying, it looked like even though Joyce had a good grip on that bear hug, she was still offering no resistance and it was seemingly impossible to break her grip. So if the technique doesn't work without resistance, what are the odds it will work against somebody that puts all their strength into it?

4:40 Too much enjoyment with the demonstration, Kim.

I'm sorry but I have to call BS on the finger idea. I'm not saying it's bad(I don't know) but TBH your demonstration of it had to the same level of non-resistance you have been ragging about. I don't see someone doing a bear hug and not going to start throwing you around and eventually end up on the ground. The victim themselves are likely to start trying to jump around as a first natural reaction anyway, not calmly start ripping at fingers right away in a stable position. I think the biggest problem here is the ultimate answer is know how to grapple. It's not the simple fast answer of "DO THIS TECHNIQUE TO SAVE YOUR LIFE" and I don't think that kind of answer exists in any world.

Subbed, you take education and humour and create a masterpiece. Your demeanour is so fitting aswell 😂 I just started muay thai and krav maga so finding this is a jem!

I'm not everybody's favorite German damn this is so sad Alexa play despacito

Thanks Dewey for addressing the "neck slap carotid artery knockout" myth. If it really worked that way , a good sharp tight gi choke would knock somebody out if you applied and released it straightaway...I mean how is THAT not "disrupting circulation and nerves" but in reality it has to be applied and held to work. In fact if it worked that way why wouldn't a good slap on the thigh at the femoral artery not knock you out? It's so irresponsible for people to be teaching it, it's a dangerous fantasy to rely on.

The first one has a sound theory, but poor execution (from the original instructional video). A sharp blown to one of the carotid arteries can easily block it for a moment, in which case your body's vasoreceptors think there's an obstruction in the artery and will immediately drop blood pressure by expanding your veins. This in turn will often cause dizzyness, nausea, or even short term unconsciousness. This is also how carotid artery strangleholds, like RNC work, causing unconsciousness after a few seconds. I disagree that you'd need to block both of them, as it doesn't really have much to do with actual blood flow, and I've seen several strangleholds that only affect one carotid be effective and cause unconsciousness. Two is always better than one, ofc! This is one of the reasons why strangleholds are still allowed on "soft" sports like judo (except the asshats in IJF banned them from standing attacks which is BS), they do not cause more than a short unconsciousness, and you'd have to block the oxygen from reaching the brain for at least 4 minutes for there to even be a risk of brain damage. Blocking the carotid artery for a moment is also used for carotid artery massage which I think is the dumbest idea ever. FOR THIS TECHNIQUE TO WORK, however, you would need to hit the artery directly with a sharp strike, not the palm of your hand, and you would need to cause enough trauma for the artery to block for a moment. To block a large artery like the carotid, you need a lot of force, because the blood pressure there is pretty big (scientific term!). A simple throat punch is far more efficient. :) What the lady COULD have done as well would have been to strike the assailant directly on the ear. That causes some amazing results, but I don't suggest you go and try it.

Hello Ramsey, You are a very knowledgeable person. And I would venture to say a good fighter. You should do your own training videos for self defense with realism in mind as you have shown. You have a lot to offer and you have a great sense of humor and rapore with people.

Man these are just hard to watch

"it's almost as if it's impossible to move through solid matter." Lol

4:46 Just tape some spikes on your bum. Then this technique will work 99,9%

0:55 It didn’t work 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Coach Ramsey is an absolute unit confirmed

"It's almost as if it's impossible to move through solid matter." XDD bruh.

The first technique, the Brachial Stun, is more designed as a counter measure movement but can be used as an offensive attack. When I was going through Military Police Academy in Fort Leonard Wood, we sparred a lot and one woman I sparred with hit me with this and the next thing I remember was going limp as two instructors were holding me up. She used her wrist and hit me directly on the Brachial Plexus Origin nerve. Needless to say, she won and I had a throbbing headache for the next ten minutes. A simple slap will not give the results needed for a successful stun.

Instructions unclear, so I willingly broke my elbow to escape bear hug attacks.

Some of these self defense instructors are so wrong , they gasing these women heads up and they get all geeked up and try these techniques on the street and end up getting hurt raped or killed , it's one thing to teach this to the public but to teach this to women is even worse
