Well played Pete, nice hand sir!

[Sinitster]

lol .. nice 1 Pete ....


I did try to take the non violent way of tackling the situation tho !

[bennymacca]

if they attacked you one after another, you would go all day, but the key thing is, how many does it take to overwhelm someone, because as soon as they can take you down, you are stuffed.

i think even 20 would be a tough ask if they all came at you at once, from all angles.

[Swanky]

20 would certainly be tough. I think you need to pick out a spot on the far wall, aim for it and plough your way through. then about turn and pick a new spot and begin ploughing. the key is to keep moving. But lets remember, they are 5 and they will have boundless energy. It's a tough ask to survive an ordeal like this.

If all the kids had weetbix for breakfast then all bets are off

I think any reasonably fit/agile adult male should be able to take 30 5 year olds without too much problem. Id say perhaps 20 for a female. Mum's would be severely handicapped without their shoe to wave around
If they were already skilled at fighting particularly martial arts, then I don't think any number of kids would be enough to knock them out, even with such 'training' to gang up on them... Male or Female adult...

Consider the average attention span of a 5 yr old.... How much are they really gonna learn in 1 day?
Darn, how much could an adult learn in 1 day?

But sin has the idea "Happy Meals all round!"
So lets add that they have been hypnotically programmed only to want to see you down...

Edit: In reply to benny the cunt's last post... Yeah that would make things tougher, but consider that only about 5 or 6 could really get at you simultaneously? So i think it then becomes, how long does it take to take out 5 or 6 at once/all together, and how long can I keep doing so?
Also, if they were coming from all sides, then they couldnt knock you over (atleast its made much harder) as there is less net force in any one direction?
They can squeeze the bejesus out of you though

A thought: How exactly is a 5 year old (or 4) meant to render an adult unconcious?
Sleeper hold? They dont have the strength?
I think their best (only?) strategy would be to push you into a wall...
So then the adult merely has to avoid a wall, while knocking out the kids at leisure (so to speak)

If they get you on the ground they'd just start kicking you in the head.

Reminds me of a story Stephen Merchant mentioned ages ago on a Ricky Gervais podcast.

Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Cambodian Ring-Fight

Spectators cheered as entire Cambodian Midget Fighting League squared off against African Lion


An African Lion much like this is responsible for the death of 28 Cambodian Midgets

Tickets had been sold-out three weeks before the much anticipated fight, which took place in the city of Kâmpóng Chhnãng.

The fight was slated when an angry fan contested Yang Sihamoni, President of the CMFL, claiming that one lion could defeat his entire league of 42 fighters.

Sihamoni takes great pride in the league he helped create, as was conveyed in his recent advertising campaign for the CMFL that stated his midgets will "... take on anything; man, beast, or machine."

This campaign is believed to be what sparked the undisclosed fan to challenge the entire league to fight a lion; a challenge that Sihamoni readily accepted.

An African Lion (Panthera Leo) was shipped to centrally located Kâmpóng Chhnãng especially for the event, which took place last Saturday, April 30, 2005 in the city’s coliseum.

The Cambodian Government allowed the fight to take place, under the condition that they receive a 50% commission on each ticket sold, and that no cameras would be allowed in the arena.

The fight was called in only 12 minutes, after which 28 fighters were declared dead, while the other 14 suffered severe injuries including broken bones and lost limbs, rendering them unable to fight back.

Sihamoni was quoted before the fight stating that he felt since his fighters out-numbered the lion 42 to 1, that they “… could out-wit and out-muscle [it].”

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

I think their training would consist of "hack out legs, kick in head"

I think you'll all kidding yourself with any number over 20, even at 10-15 you're going to have problems if you stop in reach of a couple of them for a few seconds.
