(3,282 posts)He's actually not doing a very good job, but the white dude is doing much worse. They are both just hurling haymakers, and the Asian guy got lucky and landed a couple and the white guy kept missing. It all probably came down to the Asian guy having a reach advantage.
Those big punches have power, but with some practice they are easy to see coming and either block, parry, or dodge and if you do any of those things it opens up a lot of options for counter shots.
Don't walk backwards either. Too much of a chance you trip or the person decides to bum rush you and you are on your heels and unable to respond.
Cha
(297,285 posts)pretty damn good to me.. who does not know anything about it.
Main thing though... the Harasser got knocked down and the victor stayed around to pick his ass up off the street.
Win Win!

(3,334 posts)and slide the left foot. Forwards, you step with the left foot and slide the right foot. Going to the right, you step with the right foot and slide the left foot. Going left, you step with the left foot and slide the right foot. Hands up, elbows in.
thats great advice. But even at that, you don't want to move far that way. He's lucky he didn't get hit by a car.
My main point is it is just a bad example to use for defending yourself.

(2,143 posts)It's very effective. You keep your balance (a mainstay of Tai Chi) while using hands/arms to feel behind you. Executing "repulse monkey" helped save my butt on one occasion.

(65,061 posts)...it's highly improbable to get knocked out by a punch you see coming.
So, the flip flop guy obviously took his eyes off the other guys hands.
That punch took a half hour to get there, yet his whole body went limp at impact.
He clearly never saw the punch.
Pretty hard to block a punch you don't see.
So, flip flop is a bad fighter AND stupid!

(19,565 posts)But, we don't always get lucky like this, and this was luck. Neither were skilled and fortunately the good guy lucked out the most here.
Ahh, I worry about so many and so much in these vile times. Just be smart and be safe out there. Know your limits and don't exceed them. We're all still just us and the same humans we were a few weeks ago.
Good video, Cha! It's always good to see a good guy not losing.

Cha
(297,285 posts)adrenaline of the Asian guy.. just walking along and getting attacked by some racist idiot?!
He handled it really well.. and was kind enough to pick him up off the street where he delivered the knock out punch.
I wonder if he sees it's gone Viral on Twitter?

(246 posts)I know it's sort of a stereotype but I was hoping to see the Asian guy pull of some kung fu moves or something and scare racist boy into running off. Still, it was a satisfying watch.
Cha
(297,285 posts)the Asian dude ever had to fend off an attacker before or was this his first time?!
It was priceless in the perspective he gave the harasser, as you say!
Mahalo, kaotikross
betsuni
(25,537 posts)Is this a usual thing? I didn't even know you could buy them (or maybe I forgot).
Cha
(297,285 posts)but I did hear it now that you mention it.. and wanted to ask what that sound was?
Okay.. I did see something that looked like a taser when I heard the sound. So the Asian guy was trying to fend him off with the sound of the taser and flip flop guy kept coming at him.. then when fists started flying the taser was dropped on the street?
I do have a bit of trouble with my eyes.. ok a lot.
Thank you, betsuni My thought is he had the taser for protection in this Hell Monster climate.
Tasers are legal for law enforcement use in every state, according to Taser International. But when it comes to consumer use and possession, there are several states in which consumers are not allowed to possess a Taser, including Hawaii, New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island.

So I wondered where this happened before.. now I really want to know!
Good to know.

(15,682 posts)It's so old. I left this window and tab open the day you posted it so I could watch it without disturbing anyone at the time. It's been open and even reopened every time I've restarted my computer since then. This was well worth the wait!
I cheered for the Asian guy! I cheered loudly! And even though I had some guilt pangs for behaving in a way I normally wouldn't, once I saw that the deluded white guy was going to live I got back to my cheering. The Asian guy is a good guy and it didn't surprise me that he was concerned about having hurt the idiot. It just made me proud of the kind of people I have chosen to stand with all my life! I'm glad so many people got to see this!! Thank you for posting it!!
(Did Asian dude stepping on idiot's bare foot have something to do with that knockout?)
Cha
(297,285 posts)but I get called away by family or something else happened.
But, I'm here now! I know what you mean.. I hesitated to post it at first 'cause I'm not big on fighting but the more I thought about it the next day the more I thought this might be just what is needed with all the fascism pouring down the pike. Kind of a symbolic win for being attacked for not being WHITE!!
I don't think stepping on his foot had anything to do with the attacker getting knocked to the ground. That was quite a surprise KO punch, though.. POW! And, then he helped him up.. that was the coup de grace.
Mahalo, Control-Z!
