I hear sh!t like this all the time.
You what I’ve never heard, not even once in my entire life?
Someone say that BJJ can stop a bullet.
So this leads me to the conclusion that the underlying motivation to say such a thing isn‘t to convey useful information. The underlying motivation is something else altogether.
This problem is easily mitigated if your training includes getting punched in the face.
I’m amazed at how ill prepared for fighting most people who get in fights are.
For real. It’s like straight punches and keeping your hands up are either entirely foreign concepts or went out the window when sh!t got real.
I got lucky as previously mentioned and got to train albeit briefly with a Carlson black belt so I was learning stuff like if you fight at the beach and end up on your ass how to stand to base safely including watching out for getting sand kicked in your eyes. Foot stomps. Head butts. Knees to the dome from N/S etc.
Sport bjj in a real fight might even lead to a world of pain ie jumping into guard for an arm bar gets you slammed and ktfo or worse.
Congrats and mahalo on your black belt bro.
I also like the whole get up in the guy’s face with your hands down at your sides and you chin up as high as you can point it.
PS: I’ve been training head butts (giving and receiving) recently.
Hey Duffy, head butts won't stop a bullet mang.
I've been giving head too recently.
Pretty typical session at my dojo. First we catch a pump then we lube each-other up followed by a struggle sesh in speedos.
Feigning disinterest, or fear is the new sand in the pocket. Then run faster than attack unfolds. That's all I got.
I'm not gonna say we need more enforcers, but it might help people who weren't just born stupid.

Over 50, white and wrinkling, if I were Andy I'd just offend the offender by immitating their behaviour, and proceeding to let everyone within earshot hear about it... a la,
"hey! look at me! I'm over 50, and still I'm burning the 20 year old back paddler! How's that feel kook? Now you see why it's not so cool, huh? Well, I think you need 50 more burns to truely learn, who wants to play burn the yellow board kook? Come on everyone, 5 guys in front of him, every wave!!!"
Bet noone would have fired him for that, and everyone would have joined in, ensuring yellow board kook has to sell said yellow POS and gotten at the very least a new hairdo before paddling out there again.

Hahaa.. Yea the useful information I am trying to convey is that being a tough guy in 2022 means carrying a gun. Training for self defense is useful if the other person isn't carrying. The serious fellas I know that train dont bluster about in real life or on the interweebs...I mean it is funny to see the beach is a place where some fantasy about what violence is can be played out by a loudmouthed real estate agent.
Every building has a camera on it. Everybody has a video camera in their pocket. You can’t do anything unless someone flat out assaults you. Even then, from experience, there is an element that will always blame whoever wins the fight. The loser is always the victim in their eyes. God help you if you have deep pockets.
