Excellent form, take notes
Low center, wide stance, come in head down at gut level and lift. Ya love to see it in the wild.

How did this turn out?
Popo on his ass
two popos. but he threw this one around again before running off.

Any non-Facebook link?
the only other links I found were reddit, and they had all been deleted for violating reddit rules. canโt have people celebrating cops getting their asses kicked. I imagine itโs somewhere on youtube, but there was weeks of protests so thereโs many hours of video from them.
honestly Iโm shocked the facebook one stayed up, theyโre not any better than reddit for censoring protests. especially since this was filmed several years ago, itโs a wonder the video didnโt get zucked.
this just works if the guy with the stick doesnโt hit the other guy on the head with it, which the stick guys will learn to do next time from this
sadly Iโm guessing after this there were many other stick guys and while he managed to tank the first guy his stats / armor werenโt high enough to fight off the horde
he managed to fight this cop and one more, and throw this cop to the ground again before running off.

Nice! I donโt have Facebook but Iโm happy to hear that he was able throw down and get away
Cause heโs charging in with his shield up heโs basically given the defendant a shield too, you can even see he ducks down shield side.
The baton can only really hit his left side, but heโs probably in panic mode and not able to swing as he goes airborne.
That said, thereโs probably more shieldly stick boi ready to be cunts and mess this hero up.
there was, they arrived just in time for the cop to get thrown to the ground a second time and for the protestor to run off.

the cop picked himself back up, and got thrown to the ground again.

Sadly, the police officer got back up.
yeah, and got thrown back down to the ground in almost the same fashion. and to top it off, the protestor was not caught.
Anyone have a link to the video? All Iโm able to dig up is that dude throwing a can at some cops and getting spear-tackled by a bootlicker.
I donโt have a link to this angle, but hereโs a link to an angle where the camera is closer and on the other side
https://www.facebook.com/ChilenoPromedio2.0/videos/1337891916394316/
Do they teach them nothing? Cop doesnโt even try to sprawl.
If thry could learn, they wouldnโt be cops.
thatโs offensive. and if those cops could read, theyโd be very upset.
the video of this is even better. the cop gets back up and proceeds to be thrown to the ground again before the protestor runs off.

damn we gotta see more of this
That cop probably fractured his tailbone on that tackle dayum
Its tailbone. Objects arenโt typically gendered in english.
But the person the object belongs to is generally gendered. โHisโ is a possessive pronoun in this instance
Cops arenโt people. Theyโre objects, tools if you want to be specific.
I canโt believe you ratioed me with this nonsense.
Yeah itโs kind of nonsense that we spend most of every municipal budget on such shitty tools.
Also, gentle corrections to non-native speakers are cool; i always appreciate them in languages Iโm tryinh to pick up; i expect that will continue even when im to the point youโre at where you only fuck up on the occasional weird rule or idiom.
But the joke was great, you missed it, and he explained it while keeping it funny. Ratio was deserved.
If a bat is coming towards you, ducking might not be the best approachโฆ
moving away is exactly the best approach, as it lessens the force of the impact. not to mention they are wearing a backpack, which might be able to fully absorb the impact of a baton depending on the contents.
No. Moving away is only ok if you really put some distance between the two, otherwise youโre still within reach โ itโs a baton, not a fist or knife.
moving away by any amount lessens the force of the blow. this is elementary level physics, and your arguing it really shows the sorry state of American education.
No, youโre flat out wrong, the bat is moving in a rotational motion and increasing in speed as it rotates because the wielder wonโt be putting any stopping force until they are past the point they intend to strike. This rotational motion, where the farthest point from the fulcrum (shoulder) has the most force. Meaning if you are in range, the farther out you are, the harder you get hit. You must be able to get out of range in order for backing away to be effective, otherwise you get hit harder.
Youโre only correct if itโs thrown, and if youโre this close, it wonโt make a difference.
I love the word fulcrum. I dont know what it means but itโs beautiful :3
Itโs the bit in the center that holds up the teeter totter. The axis of rotation in a lever.
So your argument is that since itโs increasing velocity, the force given from its momentum is increasing, but decreasing that momentum by robbing it of some velocity does not decrease the force.
Does my summary of your argument sound correct to you?
No, try reading the other 90% of my comment.
the rest of the comment totally misrepresented what was happening here. the protestor isnโt backing away, theyโre moving downwards. the officer isnโt swinging the baton, heโs punching straight downwards with it because he didnโt get a chance to swing.
now that you are up to speed, try again.
Theyโre saying the hit is coming from the side. Iโm not an expert, canโt zpeak to the truth of it, but youโre being obtuse.
It didnโt. The video of the riot in question that I posted shows that. Which is probably why they havenโt replied to the thread since.
But even if it did, a hook is also rotational force, and boxers still roll away from it to avoid or lessen the blow. I think if that was the wrong thing to do, they would have stopped doing it several decades ago.
Think about it as just a really long pole on a rotating shaft. The further you are away from the center of rotation the faster the pole is moving at that point. Thatโs why really long swords are more powerful (though harder to wield) than shorter ones, even if theyโre the same mass. If you get hit by the tip of the sword it transfers a lot more energy than near the hilt.
Another way to think about it is it hurts a lot more to get hit by the fist when someone punches than if you get really close and are only hit by their shoulder.
In this specific case itโs better to move in. Even better if the fist ends past your back.
If you want to see something funny, check the video I posted on this fight below. Itโs from a different angle, a closer one.
By all means do try your โelementary physicsโ in real life, I beg you. Film it too if possible.
Not american btw, nor easily offended if that was the point.I donโt need to? boxing and MMA have existed for decades now, itโs been recorded likely thousands of times by now. see my reply to the other guy.
itโs called impulse-momentum theorem. if you apply enough force to an object in motion over a long enough period of time, you reduce its momentum.
if you had fast enough reflexes, you could stop a punch to the head without it harming you by moving away from it at nearly the speed it was approaching you. while no human can reliably do that, moving away from any blow reduces the force of that blow by an amount that is measurable.
in boxing, they call it rolling with the punches. even if you are hit, rolling with a punch lessens the blow of that punch when it connects.
That isnโt how attacking with batons work. They come from the side because itโs rotational, not linear. If theyโre stabbing at you, sure. But they arenโt.
You donโt seem to have paid attention to the meme. The baton isnโt being swung.
Call.
show me the elementary school science experiment that demonstrates whatever unspecified physical principle you pointedly didnโt refer to
itโs 2025, and people on Lemmy are asking why stealing the velocity of an object over time reduces its momentum.
Iโm not going to waste my time explaining this to you. if you really are interested in impulse-momentum theorem, watch a video on how seatbelts, air bags, and crumple zones protect you when you get into a car accident.
Iโm routinely surprised by just how confidentiality wrong a lot of Lemmy users are about pretty basic things. Like at least on reddit, those people would get corrected and buried in most sane boards at least, but here there seems to be an abundance of those who just want to be incorrect about dumb shit
how confidentiality wrong a lot of Lemmy users are
shh itโs a secret, he said confidently.
Wow, so many fancy wordsโฆ how about angular momentum?
And including the length of the baton and the radius of the trajectory?
Is the impact stronger if hit near the base of the baton or its extremity?Please, get someone to hit you with one under these scenarios, you know, for science.
itโs OK to just admit you donโt know and were wrong. it doesnโt make you less of a person. this comment didnโt even argue anything, youโre just dragging the conversation out because you donโt have a good response, but want to get the last word in.
So if an object in motion with the force of 1 newton hits an object at rest thatโs 1 newton of force applied, yes? Now if the object instead hits an object also in motion with 0.5 newton, will the first object hit it with 1 or 0.5 newton?
I asked for the experiment or the name of the physical principle. edit: because he specifically said they teach this in elementary schoolโฆ I didnโt just pull that out of a hatโฆ also they donโt teach impulse-momentum theory in elementary schoolโฆ
since youโre just asking questions, itโs called impulse-momentum theorem. if you apply enough force to an object in motion over a long enough period of time, you reduce its momentum.
if you had fast enough reflexes, you could stop a punch to the head without it harming you by moving away from it at nearly the speed it was approaching you. while no human can reliably do that, moving away from any blow reduces the force of that blow by an amount that is measurable.
this is why funding education is so important, people. this is a simple concept that anyone should understand.
Yeah and that was not the answer you got but an example. Do you follow why the baton would not hit as hard if you moved away? ๐
