Solid advise. I have called 911 and not done this, but now I will.

I'm hyperventilating just thinking about it

We got a comedian over heah

The bystander effect is also the reason when there are many adults around "watching the kids" that kids drown in pools. Assign one person.

Social Psychology experts have done a myriad of experiments on this. It's been proven that the more people involved the less likely someone is going to react to a situation. Everyone thinks someone else is handling it or that something is normal.

"You with the bad outfit, call an ambulance!" *Person with bad outfit* Well now I'm not doing it.

I think yelling something like, "Hey, you with the brown hair!" would work. Nobody wants to admit to wearing a bad outfit, although one of my favorite insults is "You're ugly and your mother dresses you funny."

I'm sorry but I laughed at "you with the bad outfit"

Not related, but the photo was taken in Italy, wasn't it?

What ?!!!?!?

but they might not think their outfit is bad so won't call.

I've heard it as point to a specific person, making sure you have direct eye contact and tell them to call 911. I get adding something "funny" but we're talking an emergency here.

Saying "you with the bad outfit" will porbably mean there's another ambulance required....

If you are choking alone and can’t get help, you need to thrust under your ribcage just like performing the Heimlich on yourself. Using the back edge of a chair often works, the edge of a counter, but it must be under the ribs! trust me, speaking from experience here!

Reminds me of the x-ray shown in a documantary of a young woman with the volume k**b of the car radio in her head after her car crashed. This was in the 1950s.

Also: be a pain in the ass! Kick, scream, yell that you don’t know this person, fight like you’re life depends on it, because once they succeed in getting you secured/to another location, that may very well be it! The key is to prevent them from taking you in the first place, so always look alert and make yourself a “bad target” to acquire!

Some of these are stupid! Why would a guy take a pregnancy test? If he thinks there's an issue go see your doctor!

How long will that take?!

Not really about to get hit, but it means that lightning is really close and air is charged.

That has happened to me, but it turned out I accidentally peed in my pants.

When I was about 14, I was on a bus once in a high pickpocketing area and had my money tied around my neck in a little bag that I had tucked under my shirt. I actually felt a dude’s hand creeping under them hem of my shirt and at first I thought he was trying to grope me, but then I remembered the money pouch and realized he was probably trying to rob me instead (or as well as grope me). I alerted one of my friends with a look and then grabbed the guy’s hand before he could go too far, digging my nails into his skin so hard I drew blood as I gave him a look that warned “do it and it’ll only get worse for you.” He immediately dropped his hand back out and fled as soon as the bus stopped, and I kept my money tucked that way the rest of the trip.

Unless the exit is far away, then you die for wasting time.

Same can happen with glass bottles. Bottles are known to start forest fires as well, as people leave their trash behind when camping.

Or you can use salt instead of baking soda as well.

The same for turning off the lights. It can also ignite the gas. Flowing current isn't as dangerous.

This is really bad advice. If someone is in your house, you turn on all lights and make lots of noise to scare them off. If you confront them, chances are you will come off worse as they've a lot to lose.

This is only any use if your car has a panic button on the key fob. If you are that worried about someone breaking into your house, get a proper house alarm with a panic button by your bed. That will work better as it will sound inside the house as well as out.

Who tf cleans their cat's litter box with bleach? Seriously!?

Y'all live in some urban legend movie?
