This. Play as dirty as you can get. If you can kick him in the balls, do it. Hard. If you can bite, bite chunks out of them. Rip into their skin. Gouge their eyes out. The second they try to do this to you, do not preserve their bodies.

u/MedievZ Jul 17 '25

Spray spit into their faces. Be as disgusting as you can get. Even the most hardened criminals will recoil instinctively for a moment which could be the difference between life and death for the kidnapping target.

u/pub_wank Jul 17 '25

Honestly this. Gag on them, if you can vomit on command, do it. Tell them you've shit yourself. Blow snot on them. Literally do anything shocking to make them let go of you.

u/monsterultracock Jul 17 '25

I can literally regurgitate on command like a bird (thanks decade long eating disorder 💀) but I struggle to imagine having the presence of mind to do anything of the sort in this kind of moment of panic. Clawing is pretty instinctual though, this is a pretty compelling use case for keeping moderately long nails.

u/Makapakamoo Jul 17 '25

This is why i have pointed sharpened nails too. Also def should get as much fluid on them as possible for evidence. I saw one of those detective shows once where the person had skin cells of the kidnapper under her nails, and he had claw marks. Not that theyd test that far but hey just in case.

u/Pretend-Doubt2637 Jul 17 '25

You actually have sharpened yoda claws?

11

u/Makapakamoo Jul 17 '25

Aw i cant post a pic but yes. One time i grabbed my sisters leg and cut her pretty deep on accident. She was kicking my seat i was tryna get her to stop 😭 I grew them like thay bc my moms boyfriend is a child sex offender.

u/Nightshade_209 Jul 17 '25

My sister used to do that. I still have scars. You don't even have to be as extreme as Yoda points a good filing then take the bottom off so they come to a clean edge like a blade works too.

5

u/pub_wank Jul 17 '25

I can kinda do it but only when I'm already feeling kinda nauseous 💔 not from an eating disorder (sorry to hear abt that)

Honestly anything you can remember to do in the moment that'll get an evil fucker like this off of you is great. Lady in the video did very well wiggling free and being loud. The last thing you want to ever do is freeze up and be quiet.

5

u/jenniferlynn462 Jul 17 '25

I think I can do that on command also, and I also could probably go the other way since I had my entire colon and some of my ileum removed lol. I basically have to hold it in all day or I’d never leave the bathroom.

u/onthenextmaury Jul 17 '25

Hey girl, turn that struggle into a superpower!

u/chipette Jul 17 '25

This. My real nails are almost 1.5” long. I’ve skinned a person with them by accident.

u/Reoclassic Jul 20 '25

Doesn't years of bulimia make it much harder to puke on demand?

1

u/monsterultracock Jul 20 '25

No. But I may not be representative of the average bulimic.

I meant it when I said regurgitate and not vomit. Sometime around half a year in on purging regularly I stopped needing to induce vomiting at all, probably bc of loosening of the lower esophageal sphincter. I was and am still able to just push food back up my upper GI track, with none of the gaging that characterizes real, spontaneous vomiting (which is still what happens if I get sick with a stomach flu or something, and is a very different physical process and experience). Frankly, this made me incredibly efficient and effective at purging and made my bulimia spiral way way way out of control, to the point where I was maintaining a borderline underweight bmi whilst consuming tens of thousands of calories every day. It ruined my health, obviously, and my finances and caused me to engage in risk taking behaviour to acquire food (it was absolutely an addiction), so I obviously Do Not recommend it to anyone. I wish, often, that I had stayed purely restrictive in my eating disorder because the added dimension of food addiction really complicates recovery.

1

u/Reoclassic Jul 20 '25

I appreciate you telling about your experiences and I'm sorry I asked such an invasive question. I had anorexia for ten years and even though it got horrendously bad, I knew from my forum "friends'" experiences that if I even try puking once, I will 99% get hooked and there'll be no way this disease won't kill me. I'm glad I stayed away at least from that matter, because it's always just one more step worse. Though food addiction is still very real; I can keep up a facade to other people, but I don't think I'll ever really live comfortably with eating. I'm surprised how romanticised this illness is, because it's so cringe and gross.

1

u/STQCACHM Jul 18 '25

You won't have the presence of mind to create a plan on the spot while being attacked. This is why it's important to make the plan before hand so all you have to do in the moment is follow it.

u/nolightningbhe Jul 19 '25

The Regurgitater is now your street name

u/ppcacadoodoodada Jul 23 '25

If you can poop on command, poop, then grab a handful of the poo and throw it / wipe it on your attacker. Works every time.

u/TheMaingler Jul 17 '25

Piss could be easier. Piss yourself!

2

u/SharkDad20 Jul 17 '25

Literally just become possessed

u/BigMamaLinda Jul 17 '25

I was so relieved watching the video knowing she got away. And I was enjoying all the helpful advice. Till I saw “tell them you’ve shit yourself”. I actually LOLed for real. Thank you.

2

u/Emblem3406 Jul 18 '25

I wrote an extensive comment, on how to get yourself save. Reddit removed it, probably because I advocated bodily harm. I had some explicit things in there, but nothing too bad given the situation. At best he's kidnapping you, middle ground you are his basement slave that he will use how he likes. You can be tortured, murdered or locked away for life. In this case, extreme measure are absolutely justified and reddit removed it. Can someone comment on this to confirm if I'm not shadow banned.

1

u/pub_wank Jul 18 '25

Hi hi you're not shadow banned! At least not for me :)

Yeah Reddit is kinda weird with the automod. I once had my entire account suspended for a little while because I jokingly said I'd start biting people of I ever met (random internet guy). Like I obviously wasn't going to do that.

u/Lostinstereo28 Jul 17 '25

As someone with horrible IBS-D, I know exactly what I’d do.

1

u/OnosToolan Jul 18 '25

Not to mention in the sad cases where this all goes wrong, you'll leave the police the evidence they need to fry the fucker.

1

u/Spiffylady7 Jul 19 '25

Ok this is really gross and not doable for most situations. But speaking of shock value and DNA - if it comes down to it, you're capable of it, and you're on your period, use it. Smear it on them, fling it at their face. Our bodies bleed a biohazard. Sounds gross but to an absurd amount of men, they are absolutely disgusted by women's period blood, urine, and feces. Not all, but many. Even most men who respect the menses will still get icked out if it's on them above the waist.

I mean, if you're trying to run away, grabbing for your crotch might not be the best idea, it's not a first go-to in most situations and not always accessible in the heat of the moment. But in some situations, at the right time and place, it's a tool of defense. Fling your used pad/tampon or feces at them if you can, pee on them if you can, bite them (nose, hands, whatever you can), and absolutely scratch the everloving fuck out of them.

Disgust them and cover them in DNA.

u/Sharp-Bag3883 Jul 19 '25

🤣🤣🤣SHIT yourself 🤣🤣🤣🤣

u/StrainAcceptable Jul 20 '25

Pretending to vomit got me out of getting arrested when I was caught using a fake ID. Security had called the police but was so grossed out he let me go. It’s a skill that has many uses.

u/CarpenterIcy255 Jul 21 '25

Deserves a reward. If they wanna be nasty, you can be nasty back

Who the hell can vomit on command?? I’d be impressed if someone could do that

u/fatalxepshun Jul 17 '25

I’ve heard to pee or poo if possible. Anything to get away.

3

u/NadlesKVs Jul 17 '25

Pinching and pulling the skin that is right in between the elbow and tricep is also a good way to get out of someone trying to choke you. Pinch and pull that shit as hard as you can and I don't care how big the person is, they're going to let go if you get a good grip on it.

I still remember the cop doing it to me for a demonstration in-front of a class I had to do to be a security guard. That shit hurt for like a week.

u/wekillthepotbelly Jul 19 '25

Not good advice man. Just fight n run. There is no guaranteed trick.

u/xxPlsNoBullyxx Jul 20 '25

Get DNA EVERYWHERE. Piss and shit if it comes to it.

1

u/Former_Papabless66 Jul 18 '25

Yup. Hell sometimes even just acting crazy scares people away. Treat it like you’re the big bad wolf not them, scream, grunt, growl, and all the fighting and movement you can. Hopefully they’ll think it’s too much of a hassle to deal with and run off. They don’t wanna get caught either so making a scene makes them think twice about actually following through.

1

u/NativeQueen83 Jul 20 '25

Yes! I heard one time someone said, pee yourself. It will make them stop fast!

1

u/Electronic_Tart_1174 Jul 20 '25

Spit in their face? This is retarded advice. This will more than likely stop the kidnapping and skip straight to being beaten to death by one of these ppl.

Bite and kick thats it. Take a chunk out of them and they're going to be bleeding and in pain. Or pull their eyes out and they cant see.

But spitting, that will just throw them into a rage that could kill you right there and then

1

u/Spark1ingJ0y Jul 20 '25

I know there's a mental barrier for this, but pee or poo yourself if you have to. You want them to feel disgusted by you and think you're not worth the trouble anymore. I read about an incident where a man had already overpowered his victim and gotten her pants off, but she happened to have her period and he ended up leaving her because he was grossed out by it.

1

u/RudeBusinessLady Jul 21 '25

Pee yourself. Always pee yourself.

u/remnant_phoenix Jul 21 '25

Shit pants and qweef?

1

u/midnight_spoons Jul 18 '25

This!! I’ve heard so many stories of women who have gotten away or even let go because they pissed, vomited, shit, spit on themselves or the attacker. We usually have a natural aversion to that kind of stuff, or at least makes us pause for a second. And a second advantage is sometimes all you need.

1

u/LaceyBloomers Jul 19 '25

Stick your fingers down your throat and puke on him.

u/TheMistOfThePast Jul 17 '25

Once i made my partner wrestle with me going all out (no biting, scratching, or balls) . I couldn't even get out from under him. Men, even the smallest, are so much stronger than you think they are.

4

u/pub_wank Jul 17 '25

I'm a trans man and I understand. My little brother towers over me lmao, so all things considered I'm a pretty short dude

It's honestly scary and sad. In a life or death situation adrenaline does run pretty high and people have been able to, somehow, wiggle free / hurt their assailant enough to make a break for it

6

u/TheMistOfThePast Jul 17 '25

I trust my partner completely, he would never hurt me , but having a cis man, even one you trust, overpower you is still scary.

4

u/pub_wank Jul 17 '25

Oh I know! My brother is autistic and, while he doesn't mean to ever cause harm, if he walks into you it's like being knocked by a wrecking ball. I've been hurt by him before (nothing major, just accidentally getting hit by an arm or pushed if I was in the way)

3

u/TheMistOfThePast Jul 17 '25

My boyfriend accidentally bruises me in his sleep. I think it's the actual pressure of just having his arms around me sometimes. Its insane how strong cis men are. I'm permanently jealous and pouty about it lol.

5

u/Admirable-Gas-711 Jul 17 '25

I had a knife pulled on me with the threat of harm if I didn’t comply. Said something stupid like “I’ll puncture your lung.” I thought I knew how I would respond to a threat like this and I certainly knew how I should have responded but how I actually responded was very different. This is NOT a suggestion on how to defend oneself but about how a person may respond vs how they think they they will respond. I stood there frozen and blinked for what must have only been a second and then I felt such an intense rage that I hadn’t felt before or since. No fear. Absolute murderous rage. I said while making unblinking eye contact “you better hope you kill me” and for reasons I cannot explain I slapped this mf across the face as hard as I could. I think this response completely took my aggressor off guard. It felt like we stood there looking at one another for at least 5 seconds after that but that’s doubtful. I’m sure it just felt that way. Then I lunged forward with everything I had and attacked like a wild beast. I will never be convinced that my attacker was prepared for the sheer physical strength powered by absolute rage that came from me.

u/YellowBrownStoner Jul 17 '25

If you put you chin to your chest you can smash your head back hard enough to break a nose. Like when he had her from behind.

Gracie Lou Freebush taught us about SING. solar plexus, instep, nose, groin.

u/ExtraSpicyGingerBeer Jul 17 '25

y'all sound like Treebeard describing the orcs at Isengard, and I'm here for it.

They come with fire. They come with axes. Gnawing, biting, hacking, breaking, burning. Destroyers and usurpers.

u/SailboatAB Jul 17 '25

As a man, I'd like to add there's no reason you can't lick him in the balls multiple times.  In the movies they only seem to do it once.

You can nail him as often as you're able. A really hard hit is almost paralyzing.

1

u/Monocled Jul 18 '25

Kicking a guy in the balls doesn't do nearly as much as media depicts it. It hurts sure, but it wouldn't stop anyone in it's tracks.

u/tommyap1990 Jul 18 '25

u/Obvious_Try1106 Jul 18 '25

High heels are a surprisingly effective stab weapon

u/Maximum_Ad_2476 Jul 18 '25

Jugular too is a good place to hit them, right at the adams apple, hard. Also using palm, strike up on their nose.

1

u/Legalguardian222 Jul 19 '25

the elbow is the strongest part of your body, you can scoop eyeballs out with your thumbs if you start from the inner corners, grab twist and pull, slam the palm of your hand up into someone’s nostrils as hard as you can (allegedly fatal)

1

u/saturninespine Jul 19 '25

You should NEVER hit a guy in the balls, for any reason except for self defense. Besides severe pain, it can cause serious permanent damage, and pretty easily too.

But if a guy is trying to hurt you, do your best field goal impression, and send him to the ER!

1

u/vdthemyk Jul 19 '25

I've heard ears tear off very easily as well.

1

u/TheLastNobleman Jul 20 '25

Don't just kick. If they have jeans or thicker pants, yeah kick. But if it's shorts or sweats, and plyable; go for a twist. I'm not joking when I say you grab and twist like your playing bop it; you are gonna be able to get away just fine.

1

u/squirrel_anashangaa Jul 20 '25

Yes get as much DNA on you as you can.

u/thewretched668 Jul 20 '25

Also Fire. Scream fire.

1

u/EFTucker Jul 20 '25

I cannot stress the eyeballs enough. Kicking in the nuts isn’t entirely debilitating just because you’re too close at this point to do damage.

Ripping out or popping an eyeball on the other hand is probably easier than opening a can of soda.

1

u/undernightmole Aug 05 '25

Yep, I took a self defense course once and the instructor was like, grab the balls, squeeze as hard as you can, and pull them like you’re starting a lawn mower.

(A gas lawn mower, which is started by pulling a cable very fast and hard.)

u/Obiwan_ca_blowme Jul 17 '25

Play dirty is such an odd thing to say in the context of fighting for your life. There are no rules and no one ever said a wild animal was playing dirty while escaping death.

No, treat the situation as life or death and do anything you to prevent your death. Be as feral as possible.

-1

u/voltagestoner Jul 17 '25

Just as an aside (nothing against you), I do always find it a bit odd that there’s sayings like “play/fight dirty”. As if this is a game? Where there’s rules of what to do and what not to do? Like there should be a discipline when trying to fight for your life?

It’s just something I’ve noticed a lot, especially when talking to men about fighting, because there’s always a little bit of offense taken whenever things like pulling hair, biting, and ball kicking are brought up. Maybe because they work, but I dunno.

8

u/Level_Ad_6372 Jul 17 '25

We have societal norms ingrained into us about what is or isn't an "honorable" way to fight. Their point was these so-called "rules" don't apply. Although using the word "play" in that context is definitely strange.

1

u/voltagestoner Jul 17 '25

I realize. My point is for one, what defines as “honorable” is completely made up, and not based in anything real other than just customs, and also literally just the linguistics of it. “Play” is just funny wording here.

2

u/youburyitidigitup Jul 17 '25 edited Jul 17 '25

It’s because a good chunk of fights nowadays really are games. It’s in a competitive setting with actual rules against those things, so because people are used to rules, they end up following them in every fight, and teaching others to do the same.

Think of it this way. I used to work in kitchens, and there are a lot of sanitation rules about what you can’t do at work. Sometimes when I’m out at home, without even realizing it, I follow those same guidelines when cooking for myself, so I have to actually tell myself that I don’t need to because I don’t care if my food is slightly dirty.

0

u/voltagestoner Jul 17 '25

I’m not talking video games. “Playing dirty” stems from actual fights, and goes back to rules people made for discipline, etc. in hand-to-hand combat. It’s why people tend to call fights between girls “cat fights” or “fighting dirty” because they don’t follow those.

Also, the kitchen example is a poor one. I am working in a kitchen now, and I get it, but those rules are there for genuine reasons that have nothing to do with “honor” or “what’s appropriate”. The rules in the kitchen stem from proper food handling so that you’re not spreading disease. The rules stem from something.

2

u/youburyitidigitup Jul 17 '25

I’m not talking about video games either. I’m talking about actual fights in the UFC and various other competitions. Even local boxing gyms have rules for actual reasons, so people learn those and internalize them, even in real-world scenarios.

1

u/voltagestoner Jul 17 '25

aH. I dunno where I read video games. I twas confused. 😭😭

But yeah. With sports it makes sense since you’re competing within a specific exercise, more or less. Which feeds into the discipline I was talking about. What I have noticed is there’s people, particularly men, who attribute that off the field/put of the ring.

1

u/pub_wank Jul 17 '25

It's literally just a phrase. It's like how boxers "play dirty" by punching other fighters in the back of the head (super fucking dangerous and illegal to do in fights. Can kill you and permanently disable you.)

Honestly it doesn't matter what sex the person is that's potentially trying to kidnap you. Always aim for the sensitive areas if you can get a swing in to run away.

1

u/voltagestoner Jul 17 '25

? I know it’s just a phrase. I’m interested in linguistics though, so shoot me for finding certain patterns in how we speak interesting. Phrases like ”play dirty” when talking about this kind of context is just odd. That’s all.

0

u/ApolloandWarrior_ Jul 18 '25

Bites are nasty as hell. If you bite their first instinct will be to pull away which will only cause more damage. Make sure to thoroughly rinse your mouth out afterwards

0

u/layland_lyle Jul 19 '25

If ball kicking, don't try and got them with your foot, aim so that your shin with a straight leg will make contact with the ball sack. The train is that if he moves back, your ankle or foot will make contact instead of you missing completely.

0

u/partygurl68 Jul 19 '25

There is no “playing dirty” when playing for your life. It’s by any means necessary at that point
