Self Defense Against Multiple Attackers When Pinned Against A Wall

By Jeff Anderson


Being pinned against a wall by multiple attackers is probably one of the all-time worst self defense situations you could find yourself in. Most people who are cornered like this would just cover up the best they can and then start begging for mercy, hoping not to get beaten to death. The situation can look pretty hopeless when you're facing multiple attackers, so just what sort of self defense techniques could you possibly use to escape? Well, lucky for you, defending yourself against multiple attackers who've pinned you against a wall isn't as hard as you might think

Street Fight Physics How To Defend Against Multiple Attackers When Pinned Against A Wall

Ok, you're jacked up against a wall by several attackers with nowhere to go. No matter how much you can bench press, the force of the other fighters is too much for you to push against in order to escape. But while your brain is thinking "push", simple street fight physics dictates that the path of least resistance is your best technique for self defense. You see, while you may not be able to push multiple attackers forward, your body does have mobility from side to side. In fact, the more your attackers push forward, the more lateral movement you have as their force actually provides you with additional sideways mobility.

The Sneaky Street Fight Self Defense Technique To Crumple Multiple Attackers Like Magic

It doesn't matter if you have two fighters or thirty-five fighters pinning you against a wall, the self defense technique I'm about to describe to you will work almost like magic. But you have to act fast because you want to avoid getting punched as much as possible. Your first move is to choose just one single person among the multiple attackers you're facing, preferably the person closest to you, but it really doesn't matter as long as he's in the close quarters combat zone. Now, reach for that person and choose any close target where you can gain leverage. My favorite is his chin because when it comes to street fighting, if you can control his head, the rest of his body will follow. However, any close leveraging target, such as the inside or outside of his elbow, will work.

Use one hand to reach up and suddenly push your target sideways while he's pushing toward you. Your back is against the wall, but it can help you. Push off the wall as you're making this self defense move and you'll gain power and stability. As you're pushing your target sideways, move your body in the opposite direction along the wall.

Why This Street Fighting Self Defense Move Works Against Multiple Attackers

This is where this whole self defense thing almost gets fun. All those multiple attackers pushing in on you are exerting a lot of force, and as your body slides sideways out of their way, their momentum keeps them moving forward. So, when you push the one fighter out of the way and you move along the wall, the others will crash into each other and the wall. They'll probably fall to the ground in a heap while you're making your escape through the opening you just made.

You might think I'm dreaming because I'm saying that this simple self defense move will work against multiple attackers. You can show yourself how well it works, though - just get some of your friends to push you up against a wall with all their strength and then try it for yourself.
