today we get to see an armed robber do
his best mary poppins impression
[Music]
thank you for joining us for today's
lesson here at active self protection
i'm your host john korea an
evidence-based defensive trainer based
in phoenix arizona
today's video comes to us from parana in
brazil everyone should have a less
lethal tool on their person in this day
and age and the one that i
carry give to my family and recommend to
everyone
is palm oc hit the link in the
description and
you can get one for you and yours as
well so watch the dudes walking down the
street you see these couple of employees
that are standing there on
one guy's phone just kind of hanging out
now watch the guys walking at him the
dude is gonna pull
a really long long gun out from his
pants there and threaten these guys with
it
and poke that dude in the chest before
he actually moves with it
and now they actually apparently texted
a friend who called the cops according
to the news story in the description and
those guys were in the store long enough
that the cops actually responded several
minutes later and you see that dude
jump out and try to ditch his stuff the
other guy tried to run off as well and
what you're gonna see here is
the the cops split up and the first one
gives it up here when the cop goes and
gets him and i've sped it up for the
sake of time
where the manager then comes back out
tells him it's the right guy they get
that first guy in custody and you're
gonna see him
in just a minute the other guy actually
ran off pretty far i don't know if he
then you know grabbed a hold of the
rifle or whatever
but they got both the guys in custody
and that is where this one ends
crazy fun fact for you about 23 of the
channel historically comes
out of brazil i know people think brazil
is the whole channel 46
u.s 23 brazil about 30 percent the rest
of the world do those statistics
surprise you
this is a textbook definitional
transitional space guys
sidewalks are a transitional space
remember a transitional space is
anywhere that allows attackers to attack
with an element of surprise and to get
away quickly where they can find
valuables there and these guys sitting
here on their phones are the valuables
that are in sight
so when you're sitting on a sidewalk
there's people walking by you've got a
transitional space even nobody walking
by
cars can drive up so pay attention in
those transitional spaces watch how long
it takes these guys about 10 seconds to
walk up on them nobody's paying any
attention whatever
and that's like let's do to pull a
full-on long gun out before
anybody notices him the one guy in black
actually finally turned to notice him
when he's got that long gun out of his
pants now i know people say well wait a
minute you can't conceal that well
concealed it well enough for him to walk
down the street that far with it
in order to go and get these guys which
is a little crazy but it's true
so you got to pay attention to your
world because you've seen these guys
before you might have seen something in
their demeanor in their eyes
eyes hands and waists those kinds of
things to give you an opportunity in
launching a counter ambush you've seen
this there you're armed yourself you are
fairly far ahead but notice the guy in
red doesn't even see that until the guy
comes in and starts pointing a gun at
him there
and i do want to say pay attention for
your opportunity
to counter ambush because if this guy in
red had
had done a good job here he might have
been able to take this long gun away
from the guy when he pokes him in the
chest with it
so if you know your disarms now of
course when we're talking about disarms
you better practice that stuff
don't just watch these videos and think
that that's enough you got to get on the
mats and actually do something with it
and work hard at learning the disarms so
then that way you actually can do them
in the moment we see untrained people do
them all the time it's just risky and i
don't want you to go through that risk
now you see him there take that one in
the chest and then turn around and then
the guy
actually puts the rifle on him as well
again could have turned around here and
taken that rifle from him and at least
been in
a pretty significant fight had a size
and strength advantage my guess is too
but maybe in this case compliance was
the best course and okay fine
now i don't see the police show up on
scene very often in these cases usually
they're
long gone bad guys are long gone by the
time the cops arrive but in this case
they did and you notice here what our
bad guy does he tosses
the stuff that he's taken when he sees
those cops show up he gets rid of the
evidence pretty common thing that we see
pretty often
thankfully caught on video so they can
see that now notice that the cops split
up as well
because we have multiple bad guys you
better recognize
i think even as a police officer you
gotta you gotta think i'm on my own to
solve this fight no one else is coming
to help me
i have to solve the problem that i have
now thankfully in this particular case
these guys are going to give up but
these guys are armed robbers who have
been threats to everyone around them and
they are
absolutely a deadly threat so good on
these officers for
getting the gun up but not shooting when
the guys aren't an imminent threat but a
potential threat and then taking these
yuckle heads into custody so some things
here to think about in the pre-attack
phase about why i say hey you gotta have
those empty handed skills and know the
five ds plus one
and in this case good job for the
officers for showing up on time and
arresting the bad guys
