favorite self defense move, no weapons

[Debbie_F]

I asked my husband the other day what his favorite self defense move was and he showed me how to do a proper open hand chop to the throat. thought it was pretty good, asked if we could make a video to post here. NO. how bout if we do it outside and don't show our heads - NO. So I asked him to illustrate it for me. He drew this up while waiting for me in the car the other day. he just despises technology/internet, but humors me to an extent.

he says its important you hit like you mean it, with all your force. and don't play around trying it on someone cause you're likely to kill them. if it doesn't kill the attacker, will give you time to run while they try to breathe.

what simple but effective moves do you like?
