[18]
active self-protection lesson I'm your
[20]
host John Correa today's video comes to
[22]
us out of Sydney Australia and it shows
[25]
us an attempted attack on a Sydney
[27]
police officer so it's about three
[29]
o'clock in the morning you see the first
[31]
officer here just climbing the steps and
[32]
you're gonna see her partner who's on
[34]
our right climbing just after her now
[36]
you can see the guy that's coming around
[37]
that truck right now actually means the
[40]
officer harm has a big old carving knife
[42]
in his hands but the officer just sees
[43]
it right now guys can actually try to
[45]
stab him about three times here and then
[48]
run off and all these other officers
[49]
gonna run off after and they tried to
[51]
tase him no understanding of why
[54]
actually did this this was a totally
[55]
random attack against a police officer
[57]
thankfully the officer was not hurt they
[60]
did end up taking the guy into custody
[62]
and that's where this one ends boy I am
[64]
really grateful that that officer gave
[66]
himself enough time to be able to mount
[69]
something like a credible defense got a
[72]
pole question for you out of this one
[74]
how much empty handed training have you
[76]
done against a knife we're gonna cut
[78]
this off here at more than two days of
[80]
Matt based training so 16 hours or so or
[83]
more if you had more than that or less
[85]
than that let me know what your answer
[87]
is in the poll or in the comments me I
[90]
do train against knives quite a bit it's
[92]
a significant part of my empty handed
[93]
training skill set and it always is
[96]
difficult every single time out of
[97]
today's video let's talk first and
[99]
foremost about the importance of paying
[101]
attention and how much benefit that can
[104]
be for us second about the importance of
[107]
empty handed skills and third about
[109]
emotional fitness when a knife comes
[111]
into play first let's talk about paying
[113]
attention I love here that you can see
[115]
the first officer is not buried in her
[117]
phone or whatever you can see her
[118]
looking around climbing the steps seeing
[120]
what's going on on the other side and we
[122]
say it all the time on the channel
[123]
attention buys you time and time buys
[126]
you options pay attention you have to
[128]
pay attention to your world because that
[130]
will give you options because it buys
[131]
you time same thing with the officer is
[133]
going to end up be
[133]
tact here you're gonna see him see this
[135]
guy coming through there see what's
[136]
going on around and now he looks over
[138]
and sees this guy coming towards him
[139]
from probably somewhere around 18 to 20
[143]
feet would be my guess and this gives
[145]
him some options and gives him time to
[147]
prep not just physically but mentally
[149]
and emotionally and so having that
[152]
attention gives you advantages that if
[154]
this officer hadn't been paying
[155]
attention to his world he might have
[157]
probably well have just been stabbed in
[159]
the back and the vest that they wear
[160]
almost certainly not rated for stab
[162]
wounds and that could have been terrible
[164]
so that attention was what saved him
[166]
from significant injury in my opinion
[168]
here now notice that the guy starts
[169]
walking in and what I want to see here
[171]
is that you might say okay I've got a
[172]
very fast draw to first shot but that
[174]
made me on a square range and the
[175]
officer has to see gosh I have a problem
[177]
and then I'm going to respond to that
[179]
problem and he sees that knife in the
[181]
guy's hand starts backing up here at
[183]
about eight to nine feet that guy has
[186]
closed quite a bit of the distance and
[187]
therefore the officer has to get his
[189]
hands in play he's not gonna be able to
[191]
get a gun out in time even though he's
[194]
got one on his person and we see that
[196]
here he's gonna get after it you noticed
[198]
that he's trying to put his hand out to
[200]
protect himself and this is where empty
[201]
handed skills are incredibly important
[203]
so if you have a firearm on you you
[206]
might say well I'm just gonna draw a gun
[207]
and shoot him but friends you may not
[209]
have time after you have seen the the
[211]
threat and said oh no what am I gonna do
[214]
about it he may close that distance so
[215]
you need to have a strong very robust
[217]
empty handed skill set in order to meet
[220]
the challenge because you may try to
[222]
draw a gun and if you do you're gonna
[223]
get stabbed here now notice as well the
[225]
officer gets his hand out and does block
[227]
that first attack that was very well may
[229]
not be the most martial arts a way to do
[231]
it but it was effective now I do also
[233]
want to say gosh guys when things go
[235]
down we see him get back in the fight
[237]
and I think this was really gutsy notice
[239]
that the officer dropped what was in his
[240]
hands and got in and don't in towards
[242]
the fight and push that guy off him
[244]
that's incredibly important and also
[246]
very difficult because what goes down
[248]
here is you need emotional fitness in
[250]
order to get into the fight and stay in
[253]
the fight no matter what and guys if you
[255]
don't have that you haven't trained on
[257]
the mat in a significant amount you're
[259]
not going to be able to do that and that
[261]
is the kind of thing that takes
[262]
significant amounts of training and
[264]
significant understanding in
[265]
order to say wait a minute I have a
[268]
fight on my hand so that emotional
[269]
fitness incredibly important the officer
[271]
had it so glad for that now he's gonna
[273]
run off it's gonna take a whole bunch of
[275]
guys here but I just want to say at the
[277]
end of the day what we saw here is the
[278]
combination of paying attention of a
[280]
decent empty handed skillset and great
[283]
emotional fitness kept this officer from
[285]
being injured he did a great job and
[287]
covered his ASP
