Boy stops pitbull with rear naked choke!!!

[Anonymous]

You never know when your skills are going to come in handy. In the news recently a 9 year old boy stopped a pitbull with a rear naked choke.

The full story is here: https://www.bakersfieldnow.com/news/local/37069754.html

If this story is accurate, the kid hung on for around 20 minutes!!!! Even 2 minutes is a long time. I know his family and his instructor must be proud. Not for the technique, but for the compulsion to save another human being in trouble.

That is a exceptional boy. Courage and a level head. I wonder if he knocked the dog out or what the details are. @0 mins with a struggling dog is forever. But then again he may have pinned it to the ground with his weight and restricted it movements. Good show all the way around.

It just goes to show: WILL means more than SKILL.

In martial arts and self defense, we always talk about technique. While the right techniques is important, I will take a highly motivated person over a highly trained person any day.

What I liked most about the story is that the kid stepped up.
