When surrounded and threatened by multiple strangers, staying calm and quickly evaluating the environment is the key to survival. The following is a step-by-step response strategy, emphasizing the priority of legal self-defense and escape from danger： --- ### **1. Stay calm and observe quickly** -**Control breathing**: Take deep breaths to avoid panic and keep your mind clear. -**Scan the environment**: Quickly find the following resources： -**Physical barriers**: vehicles, walls, fences, locked rooms (can block pursuit). -**High places or narrow passages**: stairs, fire ladders, narrow alleys (limit the advantage of the opponent's number of people). -**Crowd or monitoring area**: Move to crowded places (such as shops, gas stations), or attract attention (smash glass, call for help loudly). -**Available tools**: keys (protruding between fists), fire extinguishers (spraying powder to interfere with sight), stones, branches, etc. --- ### **2. Create obstacles and delay time** -**Use the terrain**： -Bypass vehicles, pillars, or tables and chairs to force the opponent to disperse. - Enter a narrow space (such as between two cars) to avoid being attacked on the abdomen and back. -**Temporary weapon**： -Raise sand/dust to the opponent's eyes (create an opportunity to escape). -Lift chairs, trash cans and other items to block, or smash into the opponent's legs (non-fatal but can block movement). -**Diversion**: Pretend to surrender or point to a distance, and run away while the opponent is distracted. --- ### **3. Choose the best escape route** -**Priority route**： -Bright, monitored main roads> complex but familiar alleys> open open areas (avoid blocked corners). -If you are indoors, rush to the emergency exit or security room. -**Counterattack principle** (only when you can't escape)： -Concentrate on attacking the weakest (break through the encirclement). - Attack the throat, eyes, and crotch with short-range force such as elbows and knees (non-fatal but efficient). -Avoid dogfights and leave immediately after a blow. --- ### **4. Distress and post-mortem treatment** -**Calling for help skills**： -Clearly shout “fire” or “the person fainted” (it is easier to attract attention than simply calling for help). -Use your mobile phone to call the police urgently (even if there is no call, the police can locate it). -**Keep evidence**： -Remember the characteristics of the other party (tattoos, accent, clothing) and assist the police afterwards. --- ###**Legal and Safety reminder**： -Self-defense must comply with the principles of “necessity” and “proportionality”, and excessive counterattack may face legal risks. -Daily vigilance: avoid wearing headphones while walking and familiarize yourself with surrounding safety facilities (such as police stations and 24-hour convenience stores). --- **Key principles**: Escape is better than confrontation, and environmental utilization is better than physical exertion. Calmly evaluate that every second may create vitality.
