How can I defend myself during a stampede during a holiday?

The Spring Festival holiday is coming soon. I think all the big guys have their own plans, either staying at home to watch the recent popular plays or taking their families on a trip. For friends who stay at home, Dr. Clove not only suggests that you should get up and move at any time while watching the plays, but also wishes you a happy holiday.

However, for friends who are going to travel, Dr. Clove still has two long-winded words: to welcome the New Year in a lively way, don’t be happy [crowded] and sad!

[Squeezed] Lessons

Time turned back to the New Year’s Eve in 2014, That night, I finished my sleep in 2014 in an ordinary and peaceful way. In the morning, I turned on my cell phone and saw the report of the stampede on the Bund of Shanghai. Thirty-six compatriots were killed in the stampede. Shocked, I immediately wrote an article entitled “Guidelines for Survival of Stampede Accident”. Immediately during the Spring Festival, I began to worry about the sky again. Will such an accident happen again?

Reason tells me that although stampedes take place in countries with low national quality in most cases, and after one year, the quality of compatriots has definitely improved by more than a little.

However, once it happens, it will cause serious injuries or death, and the alarm bell must be sounded.

Why is trampling and squeezing dangerous?

To this day, some people may still not quite understand how so many people can be killed by small stampedes.

This is because in the process of crowding and trampling, the pressure formed between people may bring these damages to the body:

    Pressure will directly break bones, puncture viscera and blood vessels. Causing squeeze syndrome, mild subcutaneous congestion, severe muscle necrosis, etc. The great pressure, oppressing the thorax, even has no room to breathe, resulting in suffocation directly deadly.

Don’t think that accidents elsewhere are all accidental. They are really spread out. Only immortals can save such great pressure in the crowd. Do you think it is dangerous?

How can we defend ourselves when there is a stampede?

The Spring Festival is coming soon. For friends who have travel plans, the tickets have been bought. What should I do?

The ultimate way to save one’s life: don’t join in.

This is really not nonsense for scolding. Do you really have to go? Can you guarantee that the quality of the people around you is as high as yours?

Well, for friends who have only a few days off in a year, the ultimate law to save their lives is indeed cruel. Dr. Clove wants to think about it, or dig out the five self-defense laws at the bottom of the closet.

1. Avoid the dense flow of people: If you have to join in the fun, you should pay attention to watching all directions when you go out, avoid the dense flow of people, and do not go against the flow of people.

2. Tighten shoelaces and hold children well: Before joining the fun, pay attention to your belongings and children. Be clean, tie your shoes tightly and carry things well. Don’t have the chance to fall down easily. In case you fall down, especially when there is already congestion, don’t pick it up. It is easy to be squeezed and stepped on by the people behind you because you can’t see.

3. Seek shelter: If it is really unfortunate that there is a stampede, call on the people around you to calm down and don’t panic. Don’t come hard and see if there are any what high places to climb or strong walls to avoid, but don’t stand in the corner, which is more likely to be squeezed by the people around you.

4. Do a good job of protection: In case you fall down, give yourself more space to protect yourself and breathe, and do the following postures:

5. Reduce oxygen consumption: Keep your posture and pray calmly. Not counting on the gods and Buddhas to save you, but being quiet can reduce the very precious oxygen consumption. As long as your brains are not cracked and blood flows into rivers at that time, you can have more hope of survival for a few seconds.

Please take a look around, give a reminder to your circle of friends, and wish everyone a happy holiday!
