It would depend on how close or how far you are from the bad person holding a gun. There are several ways to overcome a gun attack. By sidestepping out of the line of the gunfire that is being pointed at you if you are at medium or short range then overwhelm him and break his arm in half eye gouge him to release the gun from his hand or if you have to run away then run in a zig - zag pattern then you use hide to attack or you can run then pick up rocks on the go then hide and strike his head really hard with a rock. Be aware you could kill a man with a rock thrown very hard to his head. There are several ways to do that. Please seek professional instruction or if your grandfather, father or uncle or cousin served in a war with the U.S Army, Marines, Air Force, Navy etc or ask somebody who is still on active U.S. Military to teach you military hand to hand combat.

There is a very good advice worth reading and it always pays to stay out of trouble, away from dangerous situations and to not be constantly fighting .....

Something you may not think about and have the best of the best survival stuff but what about the car or the truck that you drive may sneak up and take your dollar signs away by surprise at the gas station pump. For those who are able to start from stratch with the survival kit, start with your car or truck first with the gas m.p.g. as well as those who may be able to switch cars or trucks to a better one they have a year by year chart too. Surf around on that website for a while and you will have a better idea of what to look in for a brand new or a used car / truck.

From Google:
This video was created for the Marine Corps' Project Metropolis, to help illustrate the effects of various USMC weapons against the kind of all urban structures one can expect to find on the modern MOUT battlefield. If you've ever wondered what various military weapons are capable of doing to your standard house, this is the video for you. As a bonus, the Mk44 30mm chain gun is featured towards the end, as well as the SMAW. Basic Urban Skills Training - Concealment does NOT equal Cover - Google Video |

Along with cooler weather comes wetter weather that you must prepare
for. Getting wet can kill. Even in warm weather getting wet can cause hypothermia a condition when the core body temperature drops below 90 F serious complications begin to develop. Hypothermia is caused by exposure to cold, aggravated by wet, wind, and exhaustion. It is the number one killer of outdoor enthuestists. Death may occur at about 80 F; however, a person may drown if immersed at a higher temperature due to loss of consciousness or inability to use the arms and legs. COLD KILLS IN TWO DISTINCT STEPS EXPOSURE AND EXHAUSTION The moment your body begins to lose heat faster than it produces it, you are undergoing exposure. Two things happen: You voluntarily exercise to stay warm. Your body makes involuntary adjustments to preserve normal temperature in the vital organs, and you start shivering. Either response drains your energy reserves. The only way to stop the drain is to reduce the degree of exposure. THE TIME TO PREVENT HYPOTHERMIA IS DURING THE PERIOD OF EXPOSURE AND GRADUAL EXHAUSTION HYPOTHERMIA If exposure continues until your energy reserves are exhausted: Cold reaches the brain depriving you of good judgement and reasoning power. You will not realize this is happening. You will lose control of your hands. This is hypothermia. Your internal temperature is sliding downward. Without treatment, this slide leads to stupor, collapse, and death. AVOID EXPOSURE STAY DRY. When clothes get wet, they lose about ninety percent of their insulating value. Wool loses less as does many of the new synthetics. Cotton and wet down are worthless. BEWARE OF THE WIND. A slight breeze carries heat away from bare skin much faster than still air. Wind drives cold air under and through clothing. Wind refrigerates wet clothes by evaporating moisture from the surface. WIND MULTIPLIES THE PROBLEMS OF STAYING DRY. If you have been in the water and you are wearing a T-shirt that is wet remove it and you will retain more heat. Direct sunlight on the skin helps in the warming process. UNDERSTANDING COLD. Most hypothermia cases develop in air temperatures between 30 and 50 degrees. Most outdoor enthusiast simply can't believe such temperatures can be dangerous. They fatally underestimate the danger of being wet at such temperatures. Fifty degree water is unbearably cold. The cold that kills is cold water running down your neck and legs, and cold water removing body heat from the surface of your clothes. TERMINATE EXPOSURE If you can not stay dry and warm under existing weather conditions, using the clothes you have with you, do whatever is necessary to be less exposed. BE SMART ENOUGH TO GIVE UP REACHING THE PEAK, OR WHATEVER YOU HAD IN MIND. Get out of the wind and rain. Build a fire. Concentrate on making your camp or bivouac as secure and comfortable as possible. NEVER IGNORE SHIVERING Persistent or violent shivering is a clear warning that you are on the verge of hypothermia. MAKE CAMP OR GET BACK TO YOUR VEHICLE. BEWARE OF EXHAUSTION Make camp while you still have a reserve of energy. Allow for the fact that exposure greatly reduces your normal endurance. You may think you are doing fine when the fact that you are exercising is the only thing preventing your going into hypothermia. If exhaustion forces you to stop, however brief: Your rate of body heat production instantly drops by fifty percent or more. Violent, incapacitating shivering may begin immediately. You may slip into hypothermia in a matter of minutes. DETECT HYPOTHERMIA If your group is exposed to WIND, COLD, OR WET, think hypothermia. Watch yourself and others for the symptoms: Uncontrollable fits of shivering. Vague, slow, slurred speech. Memory lapses, or incoherence. Immobile, fumbling hands. Frequent stumbling. Drowsiness (to sleep is to die.) Apparent exhaustion. Inability to get up after a rest. TREATMENT The victim may deny he/she is in trouble. Believe the symptoms, not the person. Even mild symptoms demand immediate treatment. Get the victim out of the wind and rain. Strip off all wet clothes. If the victim is only mildly impaired: Give him/her warm drinks. (only small amounts) Get him/her into dry clothes and a warm dry sleeping bag. Well- wrapped warm (not hot) rocks or canteens placed in the crotch and under the arms anywhere the main arteries are close to the surface of the skin, will hasten recovery. If the patient is semi-conscious or worse: Try to keep him/her awake. (Do not give hot liquids by mouth.) Leave him/her stripped. Put him/her in a sleeping bag with another person (also stripped) to transfer heat. If you can put the victim between two donors, skin to skin contact is very effective treatment. Build a fire to warm canteens and rocks for warming the victim. Transport the victim as soon as possible to the closest hospital for monitoring. It takes a very long time to warm the inner core and only a rectal hypothermia thermometer is long enough to find out what the inner core temperature really is. DON'T DELAY! HYPOTHERMIA IN WATER Loss of body heat to the water, is a major cause of deaths in boating accidents. Often the cause of death is listed as drowning; but, often the primary cause is hypothermia. It should also be noted that alcohol lowers the body temperature around two to three degrees by dialateing the blood vesels. Do not drink alcohol around cold water. The following chart shows the effects of hypothermia in water: WATER TEMPERATURE / EXHAUSTION / SURVIVAL TIME 32.5 degrees..... ......... ......... .....Under 15 min........Under 15 TO 45 min. 32.5 to 40.......... ......... ......... ....15 to 30 min......... 30 to 90 min. 40 to 50.......... ......... ......... .......30 to 60 min......... 1 to 3 hrs. 50 to 60.......... ......... ......... .......1 to 2 hrs......... .....1 to 6 hrs. 60 to 70.......... ......... ......... .......2 to 7 hrs......... .....2 to 40 hrs. 70 to 80.......... ......... ......... .......3 to 12 hrs......... ...3 hrs. to indefinite Over 80.......... ......... ......... .......Indefinit e........ .......Indefini te PFD's (personal flotation devices / better known as life jackets) can increase survival time because of the insulating value they provide. In water less than 50 degrees you should wear a wet suit or dry suit to protect more of the body. SOME POINTS TO REMEMBER: While in the water, do not attempt to swim unless to reach nearby safety. Unnecessary swimming increases the rate of body heat loss. Keep your head out of the water. This will increase your survival time. Keep a positive attitude about your rescue. This will increase your chances of survival. If there is more than one person in the water, huddling is recommended. Always wear your PFD. It won't help if you don't have it on. ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- - ---------- BODY HEAT LOSS The body loses heat in five ways: Respiration, Evaporation, Conduction, Radiation and Convection. RESPIRATION: Heat escapes when air is exhaled. This can be reduced by covering the mouth and nose area with wool or a bandana. EVAPORATION: Perspiration evaporates from the skin and moisture from the lungs contributes to heat loss by the body. Control the amount of evaporation by wearing clothing that can be ventilated or taken off. Wear clothing that will not absorb water, but will breathe. So you can control the cooling effect of evaporation. CONDUCTION: Sitting on the ground, snow, touching cold equipment, or being rained upon are all examples of how heat can be lost through conduction. If you become wet a large amount of body heat is lost rapidly. Perspiration or rain should never be allowed to saturate your clothing which can reduce their insulating values. Wear clothing that will keep you warm even if it is wet, such as wool or some of the new synthetic materials (polypropylene, polorguard, fiberfill, quollofil) have good wet characteristics. Sit or sleep on a closed- cell insulating pad. RADIATION: Radiation causes the largest heat loss from uncovered skin, particularly the head, neck, and hands. It is important to cover these areas in keeping warm and preventing further heat loss. CONVECTION: The primary function of clothing is to keep a layer of warm air next to the skin, but allows water vapor (perspiration) to pass outward. The body continually warms this layer of air close to the body. A wet suit uses this same theory, but when a person falls into the water you are chilled for a few moments before the water next to your skin is warmed by your body. A dry suit has less initial shock because water does not get inside to start with so the clothing you wear under the dry suit captures the air to retain your warmth. Heat is lost rapidly with the slightest breeze unless you wear a nylon or gortex shell over your clothing to prevent the warm air from being lost. The cooling effect of wind chill is equal to that of much lower temperatures due to the increased evaporation and convection. You must have wind protection and good insulating value (dead air space) for your clothing to retain your body heat at a safe level. "No previously healthy person should die of hypothermia after they have been rescued and treatment has been started." Cameron C. Bangs, M.D. The Mountaineers 1986. some facts quoted from www.adventuresports online.com |

Early American Judo And Ju Jitsu is a complete 45 lesson in Judo that features Martial Arts pioneer Bruce Tegner. This video was filmed mostly in and around 1948 and is part of the Tegner legacy which was created by primarily by Bruce and his mother that set the stage for martial artists of the future. Also in this tape is an assortment of very rare photos and footage of Master Kenji Tomiki and American martial arts icon Mel Bruno. Those serious martial artists of Judo and Ju Jitsu will find that this video is a must for their libraries as it depicts the early martial arts in America. Approx 30 Minutes
