To that dispatcher- THANK YOU for telling Bao it is absolutely an emergency. Bao, never feel like "I dont want to clog up 911" when you're in genuine danger. Even if it was only a near-miss, reporting this to emergency responders is HUGE for the next potential victim. Glad you're okay!
I was almost hit by a car and called 911. They told me I was wasting emergency services and if I called again they would take legal action.
Thankfully the dispatcher knew what to say to get her to realize what was going on. I'm guessing that wasn't the first kind of call they'd gotten like that. It just bothers me that she didn't think THIS was an emergency. I know she wanted to think the guy wasn't gonna do anything, but that's not something she should be risking.
@@CountDracusVanWolfeni mean...
@@CountDracusVanWolfen That kinda depends. If there's a crazy driver on the sidewalk then yes it would be an emergency issue. If someone swerves in and out of their lane clearly drunk, then it's an emergency issue. Someone blowing a red light almost hitting someone isn't really an emergency
It's interesting how victims will try to rationalise or downplay the incident because the alternatives are too harmful to consider.
Poor Bao.
It's hard to accept a reality where you can just go about your day and then suddenly have to narrowly escape a potentially horrible fate, through no fault of your own.
The reality of leftists cities
Stop being a bigot and accept this is part of city culture
@@googleslocikyou should charge rent to the leftists living in your head
@@googleslocik i feel like you should get out of the house more
@@fool4343 so i can get stalked and killed?
no thanks, you can keep your crime for youself
That 100% warrented a 911 call bao. After the second time asking, dude should have took off after you ignored him. Dude was up to no good. safe out there.
I'm not gonna lie. I was very concerned for Bao from the moment I saw the tweet, but respected this as a private matter that she would give details only if she was comfortable and ready. I'm glad she was ultimately safe, even if the reminders of just how dangerous horny strangers can be have been a little too frequent lately even just among her friends. I can only wish her and everyone else safety and genuinely try to make what small influence I manage in this world a source of protection and positive change hoping others do the same.
14:38 not a psychiatrist or psychologist, but apparently it’s a common coping and mental defense mechanism. You wrap your traumatic experience in a sense of denial cause it’s traumatic. And because of this denial you feel like a burden or in trouble even though you won’t be.
I'm glad she's safe
Shits surprisingly scary. Had similiar expirience once, was working at a call center as an it helpdesk, which is honestly one of the absolute worst jobs ever, and during that evening shift a drunk ass bastard starts to scream at me on the phone that he knows where i work and that he has a gun and hell be coming to my workplace to shoot me. Fun fun fun. Well, after work, when Im cycling home, I had to cycle since it was only few kilometers to my job and my parents definetly werent going to drive me there and back, and lo and behold, a goddamned car starts following me once I leave my workplace and follows me all the way home. Scared me shitless and I was hard of sleep once I got home due to that bullshit. As far as I can tell the caller threatening my life and the car following me had nothing to do with each other and it was just a complete coincidence.
As for Bao getting self defence equipment she really should take some classes to learn how to use them properly and acclimatize herself into self defence situations ie in situations where she has to fight because that shit can be either useless if you just freeze during a conflict and cant do anything to make situation much worse if the assailant gets ahold of your self defence equipment or becomes even more angered or enraged due to you even having it.
For all the jokes we make about Bao being a dent-head, she handled this situation as smart as one could.
Baobble buddies boutta start a “protect bao squad” boutta become some Baobble bodyguards cuz man there’s too many weirdos out there wtf 💀
Recruitment may result in doxing herself and drawing more weirdos to her. Heck, I'm sure some of her viewers have unhealthy parasocial feelings.
I had to re-read your comment a few times lol.
The Bao Secret Service
Except they never tell her and she starts to genuinely lose her shit from the blacked-out SUVs following her everywhere.
Now I'm just imagining some assassination attempt and like four nerds jump out like "Get down Miss Baoberry!"
It’s honestly scary to think about how bad this could have ended up. So glad your safe Bao😢❤
Also all respect to the dispatch responder🫡
As someone well-versed in self-defense, you actually did the biggest part of self-defense, get out of there. Taser is a good choice, or pepper spray. Guns aren't something to jump to unless you are comfortable using them beforehand, beyond that in this situation a Taser would have been ideal, just a quick jab will give you room to make distance. Another big rule for self-defense is to end the situation as swiftly as possible, and a Taser is a big tool for that as unlike a gun you don't have to really worry about killing someone, let alone the bang from it.
And another rule that you observed is don't engage with them, ignore them, don't say shit. Goal is to get away if in the situation.
Of course the first rule to self defense is don't be in a situation where you need to defend yourself. Second is gtfo when you realize you are. Third is to end the situation asap and escape. Another rule is to be as uninteresting of a target as possible, unfortunately, speaking as a woman myself, certain things you can't control, like, say, being a woman. Which is really frustrating to have to admit but that is the reality of it.
You're not an idiot, you're a human being in a threatening discomforting situation that improvved impossible choices and came out paletteably well for your circumstance. There is no minmaxxing mentality in the world that prepares you for life's wrenches, all we can do is our best, for better and worse. You got the info out to law enforcement while it was fresh and are now safe enough to share the info with a supportive fanbase, on top of vacating successfully. That's all that any reasonable person could hope for. Stay safe, and thank you for always giving us something to brighten our days.
The sad and dark side of the real world... not every single human are good people... and not every human is a bad people.
And without any distintion, keep it safety, is basically, always move with some friend or family member. Bao was very inteligent with the actions done, and being conscious of the surroundings.
Is good to see that she is good
18:46 That's great and all but with Bao doing all these IRL cooking streams and this happening now would be a perfect time for a "Bao Gun Range IRL Stream"
Bao, from one random guy on the internet to a random lass I've watching clips of on the internet:
1) I'm so glad you reported that happening
2) You are never a bother, and you are not stupid for thinking that you are or downplaying it
3) You did such a good thing in telling the dispatcher for that
4) I'm glad you are safe and you kept a level head
Be proud of yourself, whale. You did a heckin' good.
Bao should be very proud of herself for how she handled that.
That being said! I don't care if your a guy or a girl. But, going down some back alley is VERY dumb! Because you never know what could happen!
Bao to 911: "Sorry to bother you, but I was almost abducted."
911: "Ma'am, that's pretty bad. That's not a non emergency."
Bao: "erm.... but is it really?"
911: "Ma'am, this pretty serious."
Bao: "lol noooo. I'm just a lil' guy. It's cool."
Everyone else: "Bao, this was pretty serious."
Bao: "Oh heck"
I think downplaying is a common response, because you can't believe you are in such a situation.
@@autohmae
Especially when you come out unharmed.
@@autohmaeyup absolutely
also part of what led me to take over a decade to finally seek medical treatment for what ultimately ended up being severe ptsd from childhood abuse (not by my parents but by others)
@@dead-claudia always good to hear people getting help, even if it's years later
@@Toneill029 quite different yet similar, I once fucked up while driving, deep in conversation, and cut into a merging while not seeing a car coming high speed towards me. The driver thankfully paid much better attention and managed not to hit me full front, and drove away honking angrily, and it took me a good 5 minutes for it to even sink in that that was a very close miss, and another day or so to truly process it. I think our brains just aren't wired for such a quick change of circumstances in our habitual norms. Think I remember people saying similar things after bombings.
This was much much more than a stalking, we literally almost lost her bro, this was almost a tragedy
Damn, that's a scary and shitty situation. Glad you're ok Boa. Stat safe everyone.
Bao, that was a serial killer. Good instincts to keep away and keep yourself safe. Stay safe, and give yourself credit. Good job.
Cannot stress enough how this is not some monstrous behaviour caused by deep mentall illness and just shit a lot of guys think they can completely get away with
@ Sugugus_421 As a guy who would probably be considered weird by a few, some guys are fucking weirdos who think that the world is their oyster or some shit, like some no fucks given, no holds barred, anything goes type shit, and then they take that kind of attitude out into the world, and then other guys see it and think it's how they should act too, and it's fucking terrifying that there's so many people who truly, whole heartedly believe in something like that, especially when those type of people get ahold of any real kind of power, and it just makes it even worse
literally ted bundy behavior to get women into his car!
@@Sugugus_421 There's some truth to this, but this guy specifically seems deranged. Like, downright predatory behavior.
The scariest thing is this guy could easily be any regular creep who wants to feel powerful
This is more common than many think
Selfdefense arc beginning? Taser training stream when?
if only women didn't have to have martial arts training in order to survive an American city
@NationalistsRuinAmerica delusional take. The strongest women in the world are on par with the average guy. Women need firearms, not Kung Fu.
@@qersy127 notice how I said "if only"? I was rather appealing to your thinking apparatus, so you'd think "damn women do have it as hard as they always say they do" cuz I can tell you I don't need to have bear spray equipped when I take a night walk to the gas station. and I also don't live in America which means not every paranoid freak I meet on the street runs around with an instant death device. but considering I'm talking to Muricans rn that's wasted time and attention cuz America is too arrogant to change.
@qersy127 my thoughts exactly
People should have the ability to defend themselves
@@dezgamingproductions4803 america should be a place where women don't need to defend themselves on their way home
Stuff is why I am always armed when i leave the house.
what model you brought?
Im a college age girl who walks to work regularly. There has been a couple of times where people have stopped in the middle of traffic to offer me a ride. This has been from both men and women and even some with children in the car. I always decline and try not to talk to them too much. It’s hard because I literally cannot go around them and have to go through the sidewalk. If you see someone walking even if you kinda know them don’t offer them a ride it’s creepy. A huge majority of kidnappers and grapist know the victim to some extent. Stay safe out there.
That was a truly scary experience. I'm glad you got away, but still that was scary, and I'm only listening. Bao you need to be careful because (and I'm sure chat agrees) you are beautiful we have seen your IRL videos so we know, and we all want you to stay safe okay
Bao, when this happens, call a friend, everything is less likley if your calling somone, it’s a major deterrent, CALL SOMONE, CALL NUMI, CALL MELODY, CALL SOMONE
She could also called her friend named 911
yeah, 911
If you have your phone in your hand start recording, describe the person (s) and vehicle if he’s driving a vehicle
Also, in the last resort: a key can still be a defensive weapon if used correctly.
Having self defence equipment is good, but it's also required to know how to use that equipment. Take self defence classes. I can't stress how important this is.
8:52. That is literally everyone (that has a big imagination so good for you for having a huge imagination) 😂
yep and when you're in it, there's this neat little thing that always gets in the way: during any traumatic situation, your emotional side goes absolutely wild. everyone's does. nobody thinks clearly in the moment.
if you want to help others, your first battle is against your own brain. and it takes months of continuous and repeated practice under pressure to learn how to condition yourself to rapidly set aside your emotions so you can reliably think logically at all. (emergency service workers get this through their months of training. and special forces units and some militaries also give this training to their soldiers.)
i unfortunately got my ability to effectively deal with such traumatic problems from years of abuse from school personnel then classmates in elementary. has come in handy helping others in serious situations tho, like getting my mom (who was the driver) out of a car rapidly filling with choking amounts of dust after a ~30mph collision caused by hydroplaning in a curve in a road going downhill
I'm really glad she's safe, and I'm also glad she bought things to protect herself
Potential crisis averted.... Glad you're safe!
Shitty driver saves the day! xD
The most important thing is that she's safe and continues to be safe. These sorts of things aren't something to joke or mess around with. 15 or so years ago when I was walking home from highschool there was some guy in a truck slapping his car door and yelling, trying to convince me to get in his vehicle. He had a car infront and behind him at the light, so he couldn't drive closer, but it was still jarring. Unfortunately I didn't get his license plate, but my folks and I made a police report about it.
Again, glad you're safe.
alright, where's me mallet
Thank god she/you are safe ! Glad your Spidey senses were tingling at the right time.
From the few things I've learned about it, downplaying it or thinking it's your fault is normal Bao. Probably because as you said: you didn't want to believe it really happened to you.
It's sad, especially women, need to be aware of such things, but please I hope you can create some method for yourself, so you don't have to think about it each time.
PS technically, I don't think it's called a stalker, but whatever that's not important.
Bao being so close to being possibly picked: "I just don't wanna be a bother."
Definitely carry self defense stuff but make sure it's legal to have where you are, I know some states both tasers and pepper spray are both illegal to carry.
if they were illegal, she would likely have had trouble buying it.
ny state (?) used to have a blanket ban, but that got shot down in 2019 in federal court, and iiuc nyc dropped all the restrictions they had in 2022.
@@dead-claudia where they killing people with blankets what the
@@dead-claudia I'm assuming she ordered them online and not all sites have something in place to check if it's legal in your state before they ship it.
This is why so many Vtubers choose not to show thier actual faces, too many nutjobs and not enough madhouses to hold em
This is why i think that everyone should have the knowledge to defend themselves, it might not be 100% effective and of course you should always run instead of fighting if you can but i think that it's better to get into those situations with those things even if they can fail then being in those situations with nothing anyways
I’d add something but everyone in the comments have said it better than I could.
You handled this perfectly in walking away and calling 911 to report this. Because now at the very least this area will have someone keeping an eye on that area to ensure no one gets stalked or worse.
You came out of this hard and rough experience stronger for it Bao. Hold your head high.
Bao : *shares her traumatic experience
some *people* : This is why we choose bear in the woods
great
After hearing all of this…I cannot even describe the amount of terror I’m feeling right now!
I am SO THANKFUL Bao is safe, she informed 911 about the whole thing, and bought self defense tools for herself!
But even still, I really hope that she, or anyone else never has to deal with those kind of creeps again! (This reminds me of a situation of my own that, while not quite the same thing, still chills me just as much as hearing Bao’s story: One time, I was in my college when the lock down alarm went off, and while thankfully it turned out to be a false alarm, those agonizing minutes of hiding under the tables, trying to keep quiet and still while texting my parents, all while hearing the PA system trying to work for more than 4 seconds, were probably the closest things I’ve felt to feeling like I was in very real danger, which probably wasn’t even half the amount of terror that Bao probably felt with her close call with a real, serious monster of a creep!
It’s moments like these that remind us to always be careful especially when out in public!)
Thank God you are safe Bao and who knows what that person intentions could have been and I want to say to everyone stay safe everyone cuz there is so many weirdos out here
Glad she’s safe because it’s horrifying dealing with that.
A stalking story? Oh God who did she stalk?
My first thoughts.
I hate these types of stories! It's such a horrible situation for anyone to be in. If you tell your dad, maybe he'll buy you a gun!
I'm glad it turned out on a positive note.
Sigh. 😞 I’m so sorry this happened, but very glad you are ok. I can never understand the entitlement people feel they have over other people’s lives. Doesn’t matter if she is an Internet personality or whatever you wanna call her, she’s a person with rights to privacy among many other rights that should be respected and protected. Hope anyone going through this is doing better, and whoever participates in these activities gets appropriate karmic justice. Apologies for the rant.
Damn, I'm so glad she's okay. People are such fucking creeps man
First Numi gets stalked at Weebcon, then Tricky reveals she is being stalked, and now Bao is also being stalked? What the hell is with these girls and weirdos?
Bao I'm glad that you're ok and I don't blame you for that experience you had but yea you have to keep your eyes open no matter what but try to think positively just thank God you made it back home safe and we're glad that you're safe so yea just be more alert if you out like that again but here's a hug Bao from me to you take care and be safe out there
Meanwhile, numi just gets into random white vans with people she dont know lol
so fucked up that people have to deal with that shit. glad you were okay.
this is why people pick the bear in the woods.
I'm glad you're safe and sorry you had to experience this. Now might be a good time to enroll in a personal defense class. You might even be able to get them to demonstrate some basic stuff on stream for a safety PSA.
I’m not saying this why females would rather choose the bear….but this doesn’t help the men’s case that are upset over the fact that we’d pick the bear!
Happy to hear that you are safe
Getting to the part about calling 911 and the dispatcher talking to her idk why but it got me welling up with emotion. I think I may have started thinking of a situation like this happening to my sister. I’m glad you’re safe Bao ❤
tw: sa. kinda venting here, sorry about that
living as a fem person is so hard. can relate to bao so much because i'm being catcalled, harassed, followed, cars with multiple men inside block my path, etc at least once a month, closer to once a few weeks. i don't have boobs or ass, in fact i wear a binder and baggy clothes over my nonexistent curves because of dysphoria (guess why i have dysphoria). i usually don't wear makeup, no revealing clothes either. i've been sa'd a month ago a few steps away from my apartment building by a complete stranger. thankfully i managed to scare him away by shouting, swearing, kicking him and trying to get him off me, but now i can't go outside without battling with panic attacks and now i'm failing my education. i didn't call the police because in my country they have the history of blaming the victims and laughing at us, doing nothing to catch perpetrators. i've become such a mess because of 1 scumbag animal and now idk how to live anymore and if i should even try to push through and continue living. i'm not gonna do anything stupid to myself, but now i have no mental capacity to try and get better. also therapy is not really an option because i don't have money for it and also they hold the same beliefs as the police. i'm just devastated.
thank you and i'm sorry to everyone who read this fucking mess lmao. i hope you understood what i was trying to say because i'm too tired to check for any errors
I am just glad you are. Safe. You really kept your cool in a scary situation. Never let it be said that you aren't a bad-ass Boa.
the sad reality is that these are precisely the situations that let us know who the true badasses are and who's just claiming to be them
but yep bao's def one of the true ones
I'm really sorry Bao. No one deserves to feel unsafe like that
Man, the first eight minutes felt like 20. I saw that there was 14 minutes left and was like “oh fuk”. What is up with some people?
poor Bao, oof, I'm well acquainted with that "blood run cold, out of breath" in-danger feeling.
the downplaying it thing... yeah, i've done that before too, maybe cause it's less scary than what it [really] was.
I still have to constantly remind myself how scary it must be to be a small woman traveling alone. Like im tall and have a larger frame so i never feel in danger pretty much anywhere i go. Someone like Bao probably has to constantly be on guard no matter where she is at all times. Sucks people cant be normal and just leave strangers alone.
Guessing the guy didn't have Blaidd painted on his vehicle. Bao would have been climbing aboard, and when he realized his mistake, it'd be too late. (More seriously, yeah, not cool. Not really a fan, but glad you're safe Bao. As a society, it's miserable that anyone has to plan around this kind of stuff to protect themselves. No one should feel like they need any of the self-defense stuff Bao got later. (Nothing wrong with having it, but no one should feel the NEED.))
Remember kids, stalking is cringe
I know how it sounds to say this to people, but it really isn't a bad idea to keep a can of pepper spray on you at all times
Even if that guy was simply trying to warn her about the area she was in could have been a shady / dangerous area (doesn't sound like one) the way that guy went about it was really wrong
I’m glad she’s ok
Not to be an Armchair Therapist or just some guy online trying to tell someone what's wrong, but her rationalizing it, sounded like a way of coping. Because no one wants to think that something like that, would or even could happen to them. No one wants to see themselves as a statistic. And that's understandable.
I'm glad to hear she got a personal alarm, and some self defense items. She got really lucky that car came in and got in that creeps way. Hopefully she's not too shaken up about this.
easiest respons is "my father is a police officer and im gonna file a report of you harassing and stalking me" and then start filming them and go about your day. Not the perfect response for every situation but im sure it will work in most
Just listening to your recollection of what happened is terrifying so I can only imagine how it was for you to experience firsthand Bao.
Firstly, happy that you are safe and that you acted rationally in the face of this situation and you reported this creep.
While I’m no psychologist, my guess is that you downplayed everything as a form of self defence where you deny the possibilities where you’ve heard of similar scenarios escalating in a more harmful direction and essentially it’s your mind trying to remain focused on survival and not succumbing to panic.
After you removed yourself from that experience and talking to the 911 dispatcher (Max props to her btw), the full gravity of the experience hit you hard so you were quiet while heading home cos you were in a mild state of shock and psychologically you were processing and trying to make sense of it all.
Personally I’m concerned on how often incidents like these are sadly occurring like:
1. Lily and that delivery driver in December
2. The two guys who harassed Yuzu when she went out to eat.
3. Tricky dealing with this stalker over the past couple of years.
Now this with you… 😨
It’s sad that things are like this so please take any and all precautions to protect yourself Bao from this point.
What a messed up situation. Glad you’re safe bao
This was traumatic just listening to it. God bless nothing happened.
Bao buy a switch gun it’s small and concealable.
From all the jokes I’m assuming you live in Ohio so it should be fine since Ohio is a constitutional carry state. Though I heavily advise you to train with it as many times as possible
In a scary situation like that it’s perfectly natural to be indecisive. I guess for me in that situation I would just go back into the building and call someone to escort me.
The price of Fame. Some people just don't know what boundaries are and when to not cross them. Glad Bao is safe, keep your head on a swivel.
???? This had nothing to do with fame. As far as this guy knew, Bao was a random homeless girl.
I would suggest taking some self defense classes.
100% That is the most scariest experience to ever have.
Bao wtf. You absolutely call the police in that situation. What about the next person he follows who doesn't have a car? Call the cops. If you're ever nervous just call tge cops. They can sort out what it is while you are safe
Well. We're glad you're okay.
Nah that’s…beyond trying to help that’s absolutely creep factor
The spy tactics women have to pull off every day just to walk to the gym. Absolutely disgusting behavior on that guy. You did everything right and all of your reactions, including downplaying the whole thing to yourself, are completely understandable. We're really glad you're safe Bao ❤
"i had nothing on me - i had my *keys* and-"
My Advice if in a country that is ridiculous about self defense - Always keep a ring of/a fresh made key on you, freshly made *specifically*
(tl;dr for those that can't read long good so much)
i remember when being really young, my dad brought used to have 2 'sets' of keys. one was his normal keys, front/back/car door keys. And the other one, always in his right pocket, never 'was used', thus, was sharp as a sushi knife and had a handle of sorts. He got it out a few times to open cans of beans or soup for us when going camping up the Mournes. I was mucking around as a teen in, on my 'mum's side family', granda's garage and go in the tool shed, looking for a screw driver, open up a few metal drawers and there, i see what looks like my dad's second key, his was stubby but its 100% a screwdriver handle attached? i got a better look and the key was welded onto the metal joint of the connecting part of handle.
My granda comes in and i go 'what's dad's 'emergency can opener' doing in here? one like this at least'
"Well, it CAN be used for that but that's not why those were made"
My grandad explained a lot to me then, some stuff my granny only knew had happened to him as he came from a time in N.irish history where it was the norm for something like this to happen daily: he once was in a bar that WASN'T his local and 2 guys came in, one yelled, then just went up and punched guy beside my grandad, then him and his friend beside him (who got side blasted) and as my granda said he was about to clip the wanker, the other one sawn-off shotgun'd the guy 2 seats down from him and both scattered n were chased but away they went. now why? (he was not of the same type of christianity as killer was, welcome to N.Ireland 1940'' - late 1990's, my dad was BORN in that time where your friends were then always rivaled with the other type of christians maybe 5 streets away, you had the IRA, and with that, you get the picture (and i, luckily, was born JUST as it ended).
My grandad was now terrified to go even to the shops, he was denied any self defense items (remember, UK, not america) so he only would go for a walk up down
Then my granny came home one day with a new set of keys for the house and my granda couldn't get it through the front door's key hole, ended up jigging it, moving it about and getting annoyed to the point he squeezed his hand so hard he felt a twinge and opened it to a bloody hand with the back door key in it.
And thats when he said he thought of the idea, if the government were gonna do nothing about it and punish you if you do try and defend yourself, he found a work around.
So, later on, as im about 15-16, we are all at a family get together. my granda pulls me into a room away from my cousins and their parents. My mum, dad, aunt and uncle are all in there already and all, bar my auntie, pull their 'fresh-key-handles' out, they are ancient looking, my uncle said he only had to take it out once and never used it. But my granda apparently after that incident, decided that for his kids, something thats small but within legal framework, to protect themselves, is needed - in the case of being attacked/kidnapped/shot at etc. But quicker than he'd liked, his neighbor asked about them, these neighbors were not the type you'd want having these self defense items nah these were 'weapons' for them, but also asked what COULD he possibly 'help them with doing' (which he wouldn't tell me exactly what but it was dangerous enough for a granda we used to make homemade-gunpowder fireworks together with, so i got the jist of 'what/how deadly' quickly) and said thats when he decided HIS family were the only ones who'd have one ever made and now, he's stopping before his lil garage of bikes n cars becomes 'a factory'. He says now that he sees the amount of knife crime on TV these days, he regrets making them and he'd never make one now for them, but back then, "any defense was better than no defense, not coming home and being in the paper tomorrow" which was something he learnt from my dad's side of the family and an uncle i never got to meet.
i still carry 3 brand new keys on a ring with me to this day and only thought i'd have to possibly use em a handful of times, never have but always been thankful i'd had them in my pocket incase (esp if travelling in england, ESPECIALLY london, literally where a few of the 'possible times' happened, fuckin 'roadmen' cardboard gangsters). though thanks to the 'gift of gab' perk, i could get out of 'difficult' situations pretty unfazed/unhurt
So TL;dr Got a shit country laws on self defense? There's always gonna be a *key* to feeling safer.
(Now this is a longer post - so... any 'look at that wall of text, i *can't* read all that!' attention span-less but attention craving wasters out there? - Your elementary level english is in YT shorts. Your not expected to read this, don't worry if you can't, i understand some kids get on this app and can't quite read paragraphs yet.)
She was 100% actively getting harassed. Sometimes it's terrifying for women to even walk anywhere alone, god damn. Glad she called 911 eventually & she's okay
Simp
@@gabrielkawa3477 Yeah 😎
The fact that a lot of boys are like “just say no” and I’m like…warranting a response could be the last thing you do! It gives them this assurance that they can continue talking. Do you think we’re dumb…
A similar thing happened to Yuzu not too long ago people are fing creeps.
Carry bear spray if you’re afraid to carry a gun. A lot of crazy’s out there
Hearing her voice get shaky, actually hurts to hear.
Scary stuff. One thing you could have done was call your trainer and have her be there with you.
Sometimes uber'ing can be used in cases like this where parking your car close to your location is impossible.
That's def Shock/stress overload Bao, the deflecting, minimizing, and the fried brain state after.... Take care of yourself!
did they follow up at all? i wonder if there would be a camera outside that could have seen the car the guy was in?
Men like that proving the bear argument right god damnit
Why don't Vtubers These days hire bodyguards if this shit keeps happening
I mean, this probably didn't happen because she's a VTuber, the guy probably had no idea she was Bao. It more likely happened because she was a young woman alone and the guy was an opportunist. Unfortunately, it's not fame or whatever that causes this kind of thing, it's just being a young woman in the vulnerable position of being alone and in an unpopulated area.
Its ok Bao you did the right thing to ask her rhe number regardless. Oh i continued watching, saying you were bringing the self protection team! Mace and what not. Good on you!,👍
Be safe and take care Bao. May there never be a next time.
If you are getting followed, just reach into your pocket while saying these magic words:
"Strawberry may jam... but my Glock don't."
Jokes aside, I'm glad you're okay and reported it. Even just reporting suspicious behavior can save someone.
Luck 1 stat, also I'm glad you are ok.
Get a cute cloth tote bag, and put a brick in it with a bag organizer on top of it. your bag is now a weapon, and you got weapons in your weapon bag. 👌 unironically this is what i do when i go out. Stay safe bao!!! glad you're ok! 😊
This is why people need weapons to defend themselves
Don't look away, stare at them. Turn on your camera and document what is going on.
I hope bao made it out safely
Baobble buddys unite, we must protect Bao ❤️👑❤️❤️❤️ please be safe ❤️🥺 my heart would break if anything ever happened much love 💕 and prayers
