In practice, I do find karate to be pretty crap against multiple opponents, but mainly, I find the training to be useful for the likes of blocking, quick strikes, bone damage (for instance, some blocks can be used offensively to snap a forearm/break an elbow) and the odd kick if I get some distance (if they're rushing me, chances are I'll kick down onto the lead guy's knee to do serious damage).Private Custard said:
tl;dr - A fair bits useless, but stuff like the strikes and agility help in fights.
:EDIT:
Most of the time I just aim punches at weak points and have been known to headbutt. I'll also bite and gouge eyes if possible.
well a gang of pepole presumably with weapons, your only option is to go for breaks , and you are out numbered and presumably if you lose you would be in trouble(no duh). so i would go for breaks, the head, and the groin, i would break knees,elbows, collar bones, and hips. if i started to get overwhelmed i would go for the neck or stop their heart, i would push back with all the strength and emotion i have because that is how i fight. Before i got more than a little hurt and only broke a few of their bones chances are they would scatter because i would be making myself look as crazy as possible and be breaking their bones, screaming and blood generally make one seem more intimidating.
Like the OP i would use my training to make it look as shocking as possible, and in addition i would use my size to make me look even more intimidating. Throws would also be effective but i would avoid any that send them into the crowd, and instead favor throwing them into their fellows, and well they are stuck off balance go for their knees, on short kick to the top of the kneecap allows me to both close the gap to my advantage and take them out of the fight.

That's average size? Shit, the lightest weight you gave is 55 pounds heavier than me. Well, best bet would be to disarm one, and start swinging, aiming for the head so as to render them unconscious as quickly as possible.Lemon Detective said:

I'd scream out a battle cry (like BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD!!!) and then dive right into the Tiger Claw and draw as much as my enemies blood before the breaks it up. I'll try to fit in a good mauling if time allows...
Great question, now I'm trained in hand to hand combat and I'm also bat-shit crazy, so I'll brutally attack one of them and then savagely bite another. Once you start biting people, they tend to run.
depending, charge the smallest looking guy using your body as a battering ram, hopefully creating a opening long enougth to get your are out of there,
else cover your head and hope for the best.
if your feeling particularly dishonorable, loose control over your bowels also wet yourself, they will not want to come near you.
if its a group of people over 3 though your more than likely to be owned without some serious training.

Shout "SHAZAM!" and pray it's finally the day I get superpowers and then die in a flurry of violence.
Quick Googling has indicated that a "Shinai" is one of those kendo sword things.JLML said:
Why the hell would you carry that to town with you? Nutter!
OT: Depending on the number of guys (and their size) I would change my tactics.
I'm a pretty big strong guy so if there are 4 or less, I'd just try to do as much damage as possible.
More than 4 though, I'm going to run at the smallest one, get him around the neck and put him between me and them and threaten to snap his goddamn neck.
I guess soiling oneself wouldn't have the same effect... Unless you do indeed start flinging it at them, but then you'd have nasty poo all over your hands. Martial arts training of any variety would be nice, but in the end run unless yer Bruce Lee, yer gonna get yer arse kicked. So assuming that you won't be getting out of that fine mess without a scratch (probably won't) just say something snide, square your shoulders and take a shot to the face. Then start laughing meniacally.. even if he keeps on hitting you keep on laughing.. The sputter and spray blood over the entire crowd screaming how you've been using intraveinous drugs and sell yourself at truckstops for the next crack hit. That'll clear the street quick times.
scream and launch myself at the first guys face.....
while screaming like an animal id scratch at his eyes, pull his hair bite him...generally be a mad act
hopefully this would put others off

I'd throw a puppy at them and while they're distracted/stupefied make my escape on the nearest bulldozer.
