In any fight situation, (street fights, karate fights, etc.) inherent body weapons consist of short jabs and strikes with elbows, knees, and hands. The key to winning any confrontation or street fight is to be aggressive and merge your attack on the opponent's vital points in order to end the fight as soon as possible. A knowledge of human body pressure points can be your key to survival.
One way to perform this is to focus on your opponent's most vital areas, or pressure points. A body is separated into three main sections: high, middle and low. Each of these sections contains vital targets. The effects of astonishing these targets could be brutal. In this article, let's take a look at the pressure point of the High Section. This section includes the head and neck and is the most risky target area. Areas for attack might include:
Self Defense
(1) Top of the head. The skull is weakest where the front cranial bones join, right between the eyes. A considerable attack could cause trauma to the cranial cavity, perhaps resulting in unconsciousness and hemorrhage.
(2) Temple. The bones of the skull are weak at the temple and an artery and large nerve lie close to the skin. A attack here could cause unconsciousness or concussion.
(3) Eyes. A small poke in the eyes causes unruly watering and blurred sight. A forceful jab could cause brief blindness or the eyes could be gouged out. Death could succeed if the fingers jab through the thin bone behind the eyes and into the brain.
(4) Nose. Any blow here could verily break the thin bones of the nose, causing ultimate pain and eye watering.
(5) Under the nose. A blow to the nerve center, which is close to the covering under the nose, could cause great pain and watery eyes.
(6) Jaw. A blow to the jaw could break or dislocate it. If the facial nerve is pinched against the lower jaw, one side of the face may be paralyzed.
(7) Chin. A blow to the chin could cause paralysis, mild concussion or unconsciousness. The jawbone acts as a lever that could send the force of a blow to the back of the brain where the cardiac and respiratory mechanisms are controlled.
(8) Back of the ears and base of the skull. A moderate blow to the back of the ears or the base of the skull could cause unconsciousness by the jarring succeed on the back of the brain. However, a considerable blow could cause a concussion or brain hemorrhage and death.
(9) Throat. A considerable blow to the front of the throat could cause death by crushing the windpipe. A forceful blow causes ultimate pain and gagging or vomiting.
(10) Side of neck. A sharp blow to the side of the neck causes unconsciousness by shock to the carotid artery, jugular vein, and vagus nerve. For maximum effect, the blow should be focused below and slightly in front of the ear. A less considerable blow causes involuntary muscle spasms and intense pain. The side of the neck is one of the best targets to use to drop an opponent immediately or to disable him temporarily to close him later.
