It goes without saying that your goal should always be to not get involved in any sort of a street fight. It’s best to just deescalate the situation by talking with the other side; or, if that fails, to excuse yourself and walk away.
However, you might find yourself in situations in which you just can’t find a way out from. In that case, Jiu-Jitsu is essential help for your self-defense.
In this altercation, a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner gave a grappling clinic to an attacker. He showed mercy by not seriously hurting him by cranking the armbar.
The guy who filmed the scene explains:
“Just as the title says, some drunk guys with beer muscles yelling at each other, some girls making it sorta worse, and some jiu-jitsu at the end, I stopped filming to jump in and deescalate cause they were going to jump the guy.”
