Now I'm curious. its not against you, but what makes any of what anyone says hard to believe. i cant speak for the OP, but if you want proof of mine, I can send you a pciture of the scar on my arm from the knife. But not knowing personal life, it seems rather... well.. I cant think of the word, but i'm just curious as to why people feel the need to question when someone posts like that. Especially since you could probably challenge any of the mugging stories in this thread.
Probably lines like:
No matter whats happened, I've always walked away, and more times then not, I've left broken men behind me
Okay sure thing tough guy. I think you've been reading too many comic books.
The fourth just stood there and I guess weighed his options, cause he just laid down the knife and walked away.
Correction I think you've been watching too many action movies.
Now I have to say, maybe you are that tough, I'm not going to doubt that
it's possible and if it's true then you sound like a handy guy to have around. But when you give us such ridiculous descriptions it sounds like you're a fiction junkie. You're telling me you got in a fight with four men,
two armed with knives, you are 155 pounds and you "broke" all four of them? No. That's too ridiculous to believe. It's hard enough to fight two people when you're getting punched in the back of the head, let alone stabbed. What did they take numbers?
Now what I'm going to say is going to sound insulting. Mind you, I don't mean it personally. Getting in a fight with a stranger is scary. Pushing a guy with a knife is stupid. Fighting when you're outnumbered is stupid. Fighting strangers with knives when you're outnumbered is stupidest of all. I had an uncle in Mexico who got into a knife fight? Guess what? Somebody died. Even if you are that good you're an idiot and I don't believe you're that good. I got into a fight once with a guy who knew marine hand to hand. I was 185 pounds and could bench 325 at the time. I also had very fast hands but I had no formal fight training. I did not manage to break any of his bones nor did he manage to break any of mine (and he told me he had been trying, afterwards). I did not "break" him in the slightest, in fact I was quickly getting tired. The fight stopped because I asked him a question and he took the opening to consider that I actually cared about what he thought. I did not, particularly, I just wanted out of that mess as fast as possible, (it was in a store, no less) but anyhow. Bones are HARD to break, and you're magically breaking them like everyone in the world has vrolik's syndrome. I have to think that only somebody who had never been in a fight would think that fighting was so easy. You'll forgive me but that's just my experience.
Real people aren't made out of glass and they don't stand around like molasses waiting to get hit. You try to break free of a hold, they adjust their grip, you try to dislocate their arm they stiffen it and shift their weight. It's not like the movies at all. And here's atheist, pudgy and frequently saying things I debunk him for and now he jumped 20 feet off a bridge, onto a train in his socks and didn't break anything. Robbers are scared, their adrenaline is already going, they are not going to be sluggish. At the first sign of trouble they freak out and react.
"I guess he weighted his options and decided that I was the ultimate badass."
Well if you are, then take my apologies right here and now man but I hope you understand why I have trouble beleiving it.
