3 THINGS to do when PEOPLE STARE at YOU with BAD INTENTIONS

Nope. All you need to do is blow em a kiss 😆

Does anybody know the name of the guy on the plane ?

What a bunch of c**p.
Speak softly and carry a big weapon. NO BODY is looking out for you and believe it or not, MANY are hoping the situation escalates. More than once I have seen teachers and even cops ignore this going on right in front of them pretending not to see it.
It's a scarry world today. And every day is just finding another person not to trust.

My experiences of this are the opposite. Eg, I once had a nutjob eyeballing me outside a shop in broad daylight. I was waiting outside for someone, smoking a cig, when this guy with big bleeding fists stopped just in front of me, staring at me. I pretended not to notice him for the first 30 seconds, the split second I looked at him, he flipped his lid "TF you looking at!" etc, then he went for me. Luckily, I'm quite squirrely and squirrelled my way out of it.

And another time, when I was quite young, 17-18. I was in a pub when this local psycho came in, he was out celebrating after getting released from prison for stabbing someone. Earlier in the night some girl had come up to me and kissed me, and for some reason this guy and his group took umbrage at being told this, even though she wasn't with any of them.
I was sat in a corner when he came over, pulled out the chair next to me, moved his face about an inch from mine and told me he was going to stab me when I left. Then he just sat there staring for a few minutes. I didn't look at him. Then he got up and went back to his friends, who were all stood in the doorway. I was sat there waiting to be stabbed. Luckily there was an alcove above me that had a drop down into the next room, I climbed through it, dropped down into the next room and lost them in the back alleys.

There's no rhyme or reason with these guys and eye contact.

Peper spray works too.

I got into once with one of my old coworkers who had a fragile ego. Something over a work related issue I was involved with along with him that was resolved already with my supervisor. When dude came in as I was leaving he came up behind me and started hollering while I was working the machine. Threatened me with bodily harm so I stared directly at him confidently. All I said was okay? The issue was resolved I talked to the boss and that’s it. He acted like he was about to swing on me so I made sure I was within arms reach of the mallet I was using. He immediately backed off yelling his way to go cry some more to somebody else. Sometimes you simply can de-escalate the issue by pointing out what they have a problem with and make them realize they’re over stepping their boundaries. Never yell be calm and assertive on your stance on whatever the issue is. Eye contact is important but you also need to understand the fragility of the human mind as well. I think that’s way more important than eye contact even though it’s a necessary factor. I didn’t have to stare him down even though he was withing sucker punching distance giving off pure malice and admitted of having these bad intentions. Passive aggressive assertiveness instead of direct aggressive assertiveness will most likely keep you out of an unnecessary fight. Always have that be the last result when confronted in this manner

Good advice, thank you.

This is why i dont go out much. Im scared. Its not becuase I afraid of what someone will do to me, its because I know what I will do to someone if they put me in a tricky situation. You gonna have to kill me.

shadows on the ground are good to for locating if someone is following you

Good advice, but most people with bad intentions are usually cowards, in my 40 years of living i find a fast elbow to the chin beforehand, usually sends others running. The elbow is stronger than the chin.

After 23 years in the Corps, one of the things I took away was to always stare straight ahead at eye level. If he's tall, you're staring at his throat; if smaller, you're staring at his cowlick; you do not recognize his intimidation what-so-ever; he's just a body in front of you that you're going annihilate just to the point of his demise. His demeanor means nothing to you; you have a job to do, so get it done. Since you're always "ON", you get it done first.

I just look at em and say "I'm sorry you forgot the safe word"

I grew up breaking wild horses and started riding bulls at 15. My level of fear of injury and embracing insane behavior is something kids in my life lived daily. Never encountered a man that could equal a 1700 pound bull trying to kill me. There is a certain truth to the "i have no fucks left to give" statement. Actually the majority of bullys ive encountered were like that because there's a scared little boy in there. A professional back alley street fighter from Chicago i knew was the deadliest human fighters I've ever seen or met. Black haired blue-eyed polish guy. A very good friend. But when he got about 3 shots of voldka down it was time to politely say good night.

Why is this fight science just like when a woman makes eye contact with you? If you turn away, you appear weak. If you do the nod up, you're arrogant. If you keep eye contact and continue to smile, you either have a date for Saturday night, or you avoid a fight. So either way you may end up with a new friend, or a new friend that wants to spend time with you. Your choice.

Anyone who projects psycho tough guy is not. Either they are putting on a show. Or they are legit nuts. I laugh at these clowns.

When someone stares at me...I ask do you want to kiss me...Its a win-win!

what's wrong with been scared ? i don't think your paranoid, you're just making up dramatic scenarios so you can make videos. kenny rogers said walk away ,

Thank you sir b

Or just let them think you're a coward. Who cares what they think. the very idea they want a stare down with you is their problem not yours

It's not self-defense if you roll down the window ~

I learned to defend myself with 3 years of Krav Maga. I agree with the video and would say look around for what you would use to defend yourself if you were attacked. Weigh up the person staring at you. How big are they, how fast are they likely to be, where would you strike first , having ( hopefully) countered or avoided any initial attack. These people are not usually prepared for others striking back hard and can be caught unawares. Our instructor used to say that if you have to defend yourself hit them properly don’t just piss the m off.

Blow them a kiss.

I live in a place where you don't show out ( we all have guns). So there's not much direct eye contact made in intimidation here. This sounds like big city issues.

Thats stupid advise

I had a guy at a construction site staring at me, I stared back for a bit, then gave him a huge smile. He cracked a smile in response. Crisis averted.

One mistake not mentioned , overconfidence . I once minimized a threat because I thought " this guy wouldn't dare try anything to me" and got sucker punched for my arrogance . Expect the unexpected , old advice is still good advice .

Do you think someone is going to remember all your rules ?
Way too many details and if's.
Blah blah blah...

Thank you so much

NONSENSE

Instructions unclear, now I’m sleeping on the couch!

I used to do ki aikido and we learned about the one point (which is located about six inches beneath the naval) when you focus on this point you relax and become a lot more aware of your surroundings and when you meditate on this point you become immovable. I use this while i am out and about if i feel the need to be aware and composed. Some people might even call this core strength as well but it's really just a state of being

Good advice Mark

Your first mistake is being in a place where these fragile egos have been over served.

I was a bartender for many years. One night two women got into it, just yelling & name calling, nothing physical. One got up and left. About an hour later the other one got up and left. The first woman was waiting outside. The second woman got hit in the face with a 2x4. All her teeth knocked out in front. Nose broke. Front jawbone area split. Extensive dental & facial reconstruction. An argument isn't worth it. Let it go.

Call them out. Only psycho and narcissists stare. Tell them good mental health is on the rise, except for them.😂

I just carry wherever I go

YOU'RE A FRAUD!

You sound like someone who "learned how to fight" by reading books on psychology, not someone who has actually trained or fought. You don't stare at someone for multiple reasons.

You don't let them get close enough to hit you. If they're in that range you should be attacking because they intend on attacking you.

Stop posting these videos before you get someone hurt.

Why is this person staring at me with bad intentions? And he’s got 15-20 friends.

Looking back at the dude while Being confident in itself isn’t enough unless you’re prepared to throw! Boom!
No…..

Learn how to deescalate with eye contact #2


Just Walk away. Or RUN AWAY!

Quickly get the job done and move on.

If you’re not a drunk that hangs out with drunk people, your odds of being in an intimidation situation like this goes down to almost 0.

Wrong, regarding being sucker punched. Just because you are looking squarely at somebody doesn’t mean they can’t sucker punch you. If you are in range and the other person throws a average speed punch, you cannot react quickly enough to avoid it. That’s why fighters keep their hands up. You can’t go from having your hands down to blocking a punch quick enough.

I like giving them the old crossed eyed stare.

This is nonsense.

Keep eye contact and yell!

Whaaasap P u t o?
While you grab the handle of your piece that intimidate anyone.

I used to get into bar fights....
One day my wife said "when was the last time you got into a fight in line at a coffee shop or Barnes and Noble?"

Don’t stare back. You may develop a strong romantic feeling in the long run.😂

You talkin to me!?

Half the commenters get regular ass whippings 😂

I, 5'3", female, lived in the SF Tenderloin for just under 10 years. I never had a problem on the streets no matter what the hour. I made a very specific point of glancing into every darkened doorway and meeting the eyes of every single person I passed. I made it clear with a glance and a quick nod that I saw them, I was aware of them and I was not particularly afraid. Most predators rely on surprise, the second you have met their eyes they have lost all invisibility, all element of surprise.

Just smile then if that doesn't work, put your middle finger in one nostril if you're in the u.s., if you're in England use your index finger and middle finger in both of your nostrils...If this escalates things be prepared for a fight..👍🏾
