    You’ve heard the term “killer heels,” right? Like “these heels are KILLING my feet.” But that got me thinking... Could a high heel ACTUALLY be used as a weapon? Today we’re slinging stilettos as we put the question to the test!

    10:50 the problem with just punching: while it might exert more force, you’re much more likely to hurt yourself in the process

    • @nuh_uh210
      @nuh_uh210 Před 4 měsíci +21

      Yeah, this is a great lesson on force distribution, but I feel like part of that may have been that the Theorists weren’t trained to strike. Any trained boxer (and me, who’s not) can tell you that most of the damage in bare knuckle fighting will be done with your front two knuckles. In fact, striking with the full surface of your fist is a fast way to dislocate a joint. Trained strikers use their front two knuckles to significantly reduce the chance of hurting your own hand, though even that has its risks.
      This means that a trained boxer is basically doing the equivalent of sending their full shoulder, arm, and core strength through the surface area of two knuckles. terrifying.

    • @Tea_laBlue
      @Tea_laBlue Před 3 měsíci +13

      I was thinking that. Someone who isn’t trained is definitely gonna hurt themselves as much as the other person.

      Also there is a psychological aspect where it's harder to bring yourself to use your full strength, which is one reason boxing gloves arguably make the sport more dangerous because they can hit harder more consistently

      @@rabnadskubla8594 Fun fact about that, they actually appeared once before in the Tellius games (Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn, where Ike and Micciah and Soren are from). There knives were lightweight low might but high crit weapons with no other real effects (also not 2-range) and the Stiletto was indeed one of the higher rank ones. I believe it was Steel or Silver tier. the first Assassin you get access to has one, and Mages had it as a weapon option (alongside Staff) to get prof with when promoting, though it was a terrible choice since it was one of the first games to split Str and Mag growth (technically it was always "Split" but mages had no access to physical damage and vice versa so Str was replaced with Mag, functionally the same stat though) and that resulted in Mages having trash Str growths and caps and the low Might of knives made them useless for them
      They then reappeared in a sense in Fates as the Nohrian counterpart to Shurikens, but they didn't have special names anymore like Stiletto so it's hardly worth mentioning. Engage is the real return of Knives as a weapon and HO BOY are they now amazing. Still wish you could toss them on mages though

    During my high school prom, a lot of the girls on the dance floor chose to take their shoes off. We had a gruesome incident where one of them, who was wearing stiletto heels, accidentally impaled another student's foot by jumping on her. I imagine this sort of thing happens pretty often, but it was quite the shock to a room full of teenagers. On a side note, a group of a dozen or so boys got hurt from dancing on one of the tables, which collapsed. And one of my friends hit his sack while doing the worm. Crazy night.

    I think the punching vs the heel thing makes sense. because even in a life threatening situation, you're going to be subconsciously worried about hurting yourself if you just go for a straight punch. whereas if you have a weapon you're able to go all out without worrying about hurting yourself.

  • @EssBJay
    @EssBJay Před rokem +302

    I like Amy's approach with the last one. Whoever's attacking you is probably taller than you, so aiming for the top of the skull may not be viable. But you know what's easier to reach and absolutely full of weak spots? The face.
    The goal of this as IRL self-defence isn't to kill somebody but to cause enough pain to make them back off. Even if you miss the eye there's still gonna be bruises and blood. So yeah, aim for the face.

    I knew the outcome (for the stiletto at least) from the start because my mom has a story from before I was born. She was out clubbing and one guy got a bit *ahem* interested in her body. I don’t know if he had one too many drinks or was just a creep. Anyways, my mom was wearing stilettos, she felt threatened and stomped the thin part of the stiletto into the guys foot. If you’ve seen the full video you can probably guess what happened.
    On a different note I would love to see that video on how many shirts are required to stop a bullet.

      I saw an article about a woman who got in an argument with a guy and used her shot to attack his face, which bruised him badly and could have blinded him. The main point of the article was that she didn't get the prison sentence that a guy would get had he injured a woman to a similar degree, but it does go to show that the heels are dangerous and should be treated as such.

      I actually figured the results too just by remembering when I was stabbed in the foot by another girls' heels once. Didn't get a puncture wound but damn it hurt so bad and I had issues walking for a while that it might as well have.
      Also, this video showed me just why women NEED to have some kind of weapons to have any chance of self defense or thwarting threats away. The difference in the force in the punch between the girls/steph&amy and mat, and the effects they had on the skull replica with the heels visually showcased how much stronger men are on average so women are going to need some kind of weaspons fill in that handicap.

    • @msk-qp6fn
      @msk-qp6fn Před rokem +14

      ​​​​@@greywolf7577re is actually a room for arguement why that was ruled the way it was. Seems unfair but the reason why the woman wasn't given a higher sentence probably has to do with women in domestic abuse or any similar situations similar enough needing to use weapons to escape. Funny thing though, in most parts of east asia there is no way the woman in question will be given a lower sentence by virtue of using a weapon and it being intentional, which many actually would say it unfair. Utterly fascinating how the world is still different enough like this despite the globalization.
