The Safest Way to Walk

I'm gonna teach you the correct technique to walk so that you won't get mugged let's talk about that good mythical morning have you told your friends about good mythical morning yes because if you have a mouth and they have ears it can really work out for that to happen okay criminals are sizing you up to decide if they are going to mug you what do they look at height hopefully studies show that the way you walk determines your likelihood of being mugged or not that makes sense to me it was a study back in the 80s yeah by the way we're gonna do what we're gonna leave the studio we're gonna do a workshop whoa I'm gonna teach real trip I'm gonna teach you how to walk but I'm gonna give you a little bit of back background first so yes a field trip you guys can come with a love a field trip day okay in the 80s there was a study where they got prisoners to look at footage of people walking and they tried to determine who they would want to move and then built off of that study more recently some psychologists determined some factors that impacted the perceived vulnerability of someone walking hmm and so they would rate the vulnerability of someone walking then they would teach them these factors huh and then they would rewrite them and their vulnerability score would go down so teach me I have these factors and I'm going to teach you first of all I'm gonna take the factors and I'm gonna teach you the most vulnerable way to walk and then I'm gonna flip the script and I'm gonna teach you the safest way to walk the anti mugger walk now do you have some kind of guarantee if I get mugged after learning this like you have to reimburse me or any kind of thing like that no bummer but it is gonna be fun let's go outside as you can see we are relocated to an alleyway where as you know people get mugged yes not not just this one in particular just alleys in general not usually in the broad daylight but this would be a good equity I think the chances are that I'll actually be mugged I feel remarkably safe right now well first I'm gonna like I said I'm gonna teach you kind of a residential area you're gonna walk up and down and give you the different factors to have the most vulnerable walk well or durable first vulnerable first with a couple of a handful of factors okay so I want you to walk in incorporating the first factor first first step to having a vulnerable walk Viktor start walking victims walk with less consistency of their movement like fast and slow no just just you walk faster than walking slower short or long strides yeah walk normal but with short or long strides what an idiot nobody walks like this there's I mean unless you've got like a worm a worm like a worm in your brain oh okay well come back I'll give you the second factor that dog wants to mug you this is amazing the dog smelled my vulnerable walk fact factor number to keep the inconsistency of the walk and now vulnerable people also lift their feet when they're walking so they don't swing their feet they lift their feet yeah inconsistent speed lift your feet like you stepping over something I would mug this person keeping it consistent that's good I mean I look like I look like I'm sneaking out like I'm the one breaking the wall like I'm sneaking up on somebody no like a bird doing a mating dance okay all right let's get the third factor all right ever seen anyone walk like that factor number three they walk with the same leg and arm forward at the same time so they don't it's not left leg right arm it's left leg left arm right leg right arm forward yeah that's what they say are you consistent you have to think to walk like this don't lean consistent lift your feet keep your arms moving with your legs there you go yeah all right all right that's good I feel like it's like I'm one of those background dancers for like a 1987 Michael Jackson did it like all right final factor to the most vulnerable walk ever they walk just early where the movement comes from their extremity so add that to it movement in the extremities right yeah a lot of finger movement toe jazz hands yeah give me some keep your hands move there you go we're gonna told you that without a study always mugga man is making jazz dance you like it very vulnerable in the mind all right put it all together fast and slow big did a little hot in low lots of jazz hands that's good maybe turn the turn the head a little bit spin a little bit that's inconsistent yeah I think if I wasn't here right now you be getting mugged good work Rhett you're learning something how not to walk okay nobody bugged me those are the factors I mean what's up muggers I know that that seems kind of contrived but maybe that's just the way you did it I gotta admit it's hard to believe that this comes from a legitimate scientific source but maybe the things are a little bit more naturally subtle than I've been doing I've been exaggerating for the people at home I think you did a good job all right so now it's time to learn the anti mugger walk the least vulnerable most impervious to crime wall known to man according to these three factors so line up here's the first factor walk with a medium stride pretty straightforward what's up muggers just keep it medium I got a $50 bill in my pocket you don't have to taunt potential mugger I'll give you the pin number to my ATM come back no takers no takers now it's time for the second factor adding to the medium 'no severe anti mugger walk you need to walk with postural movement that is the movement comes from the body center so your extremities are no longer moving and don't need a throw up that sucks the pelvis no pelvis thrusts you know just maybe a little bit in the shoulders and then keep the arms till at your sides and just just walk at a medium pace wag your shoulders a little bit your core who else some of this I got cash okay come back final factor you must swing your feet when walking don't lift your feet don't lift your feet just kind of swing them basically it's a shuffle no arm movement no extremity movement just movement in the core and then some some swinging of the feet not no lifting of the feet go no one is gonna mug this hey my guess what you think about this think you look like an idiot yeah hide in your house yeah hide in your little car hide in these trash cans yeah okay come back I think they're hiding in the trash cans all right so let's summarize the anytime mugger walk one more time put it all together don't lift the feet at all don't even lift the toes okay right why don't you come back and we can summarize this inside feel like I'm on a reality show it's been scripted or something hey Linc you want to go back inside and summarize is this how you do it we act on a
