Carjackers and muggers often target people when their attention is on entering a vehicle, pushing buttons at an ATM, or locking and unlocking a building/door.
Great tips. Shared on Facebook. We can definitely be too comfortable in hotels and not stay alert. Good reminder that we need to be as much as, if not more so, alert in a "home away from home."
I always live by the saying keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer. Why stems from the need of a combative mind that never seeks trouble, but is always ready.
As a retired flight attendant who often had to layover by herself, I cannot stress enough the importance of hotel safety. On two separate occasions, friends of mine found a perp hiding under the bed. Now, most hotels have solid platforms, but perps can still hide behind the curtains, in the shower, across the hall, etc. It’s no joke. I’ve not yet seen the rest of your vids, but I’d love to see some hotel security tips for anyone traveling alone, esp if encountering a perp in your room. Thanks for the great info!
After entering your hotel room always lock door AND lock second security device on door. If there isn’t a second security device on hotel room door leave the hotel room. It’s not safe.
There is another term; environment(al), goes with surroundings. Use the glass as mirrors to see behind you; car, building (glass doors) windows, chrome frame around ATM's . Dale should use his peripheral vision to check that door to his right,seeing it ajar;pull it closed and hold it while his wife opens their door and goes in, then goes in himself ,other ways as you showed. There is the quick spin to the left, gaining control of the gun (most important), rear choke hold with free arm. Not to tell how to do anything, giving ideas of other ways.
i have been doing deliveries in the East side hood of Cleveland for over 40 years . Keep your head on a swivel , be aware of your inner and outer surroundings . Move with authority , do what needs to be done. When approached respond loud and clear to make your communication understood . The con man will ask for time or something they want to sell ,a watch, drugs , a woman . The answer easily understood , as your moving on along (I don't get paid till next week). I move a short distance then glare back to make sure I'm not being followed .If I can ,I make eye contact to let them know I'm wise to the street. Young punks strung out on drugs is a different story ,say a prayer and fight like Hell>
Very good advice and training. I am a retired bounty hunter. I carry 2 of the highest voltage stun guns with me wherever I go. Back when I worked I never carried any weapons.
Sometimes we get complacent, when we're with our loved ones, That simply isn't the time for that. Stay armed and vigilant. That's the best advice to remain healthy.
Thanks guys. Situational awareness at all times in public. I like that Dale moves the same way with or without a weapon when clearing a room. It makes sense since it's pieing the areas and potential openings that gains us awareness of our surroundings.
And of course as Joseph's shirt says "I am the weapon."
But your greatest weapon is your brain. Use it. Maximize it. Always keep learning too.

Professionally done–as good as Hollywood. And showing both the right and wrong way of carrying out this defensive move.

Btw that looks like a hotel that would never happen in…the outdoor motels maybe.
Yeah like somebody's gonna mess with that thug lookin guy;
After entering your hotel room
always lock door AND lock second security device on door.
If there isn’t a second security device on hotel room door
leave the hotel room. It’s not safe.
Great video well done, I like your teaching methods.
Thanks for the great information. Never thought about the possibility of this happening. Really appreciate the video.

Good demo…I love the way your wife posted rear guard… excellent team work..
More women need to see this…
This is very good advice, simple & secure! Thanks TRS!
MikeThanks good video, it's so easy to let your guard down when tired or travel worn. Will keep in brain for when needed.

Great video…..thanks guys….can always learn from people that have the experience and know what their talking about!
It was almost OK.

Awesome

Dale looks incredibly good for his age.
Thank you both for kicking ass on our behalf.
