      I used to go to the gym in my complex alone. It’s the same door that leads you to the laundry but I started noticing weird men walking by just watching while doing laundry. I signed up for the Y down the street instead and even though I pay $49 a month it’s worth it to me because its a family place and full of people. It makes me feel safer and not alone.

      On average men are physically stronger than women, so please RUN FIRST if you're far enough away THEN FIGHT if you have no choice, and preferably with a weapon (pepper spray, knife, etc). Have your defense kits on hand. Contrary to what she said, she DID act out of fear because she ran right past the exit. That's understandable because no one, regardless of gender, acts 100% rationally when being attacked. Your first instinct should be to get the f*ck out of there. I hope she used calling the cops as a decoy because it didn't help much in stopping his weird sluggish rampage.

      But like everyone else, I'm glad she's okay and do applaud her for her strength and perseverance. I also agree that she'll need a lot of counseling after this.

      Just in case anyone is wondering, this is not a black or mixed race person….black people wears socks with slippers. This is an asian man and raping women is very frequent in india.

      "He was equal to me so I knew I was stronger than him." Ok… It was his lack of cardio that saved you, not his lack of strength. He manhandled you to the ground with ease.

      0:50 the worst advice possible. she is a professional athlete, and he is an absolutely unsportsmanlike ordinary man, and they were on an equal footing. she is one lucky case of victory in 10,000 unsuccessful ones. don't confuse luck with the system. the best chance for a woman to win – is to run away and call for help from strong men. And this is not fantasy, but dry, bare facts. if you are not a woman from the sports elite, never fight with men, take care of your life.

      Its clear this dude was not fully committed because too many of yall believe that she was in shape or outlasted him. That dude wasnt actually trying. If you wish to doubt, did yall not see how easily he snatched her up? She isnt as strong, please dont fall for this BS, you will more than likely end up worse. The best things she SHOULD have done, pay attention to the exit, violently put him down anyway possible. But her story is more fluff than reality. If grown ass male cops twice her weight can struggle with a meth addict, do you really believe you have a better shot because you do yoga? Be realistic, please

      She's very lucky he was not really trying to hurt her and was just trying to grope/rape her. I'm happy she got away just fine but hopefully all that talk was just for the cameras. She believed she was stronger which I'm sure gave her confidence but it's also important to understand the reality of things afterwards. Hopefully she took this as a hard learned lesson and always carries pepper spray after this or something.

      That guy really wasn't even trying she got really lucky he really wasn't that serious she got ragged like a child. I think the guy in all reality is just mentally ill i don't think he was really trying to hurt her and that could have been anyone that night in my opinion but that is just what I think personally.

      Salute to her but also that nigga really didn't try in my perspective she was lucky. Guy made no attempt to swing, and I'm glad he didn't cause she would have turned out differently

      The girl got really lucky because that guy was extremely conflicted in his actions. Even then, the girl bravely chooses to run away from him (the wisest thing she could do) then she randomly stops halfway the gym, looks back at him. She then continues running towards the exit door and instead of getting out right away while she had her first escape chance she decides to go back inside the gym? Maybe she was confused. She then manages to run away from him the second time by the gym's exit door then she finally runs away outside the gym. As a man , my advise to women: unless you're prepared to knock him out never fight a man or you will be knocked out in an instant.

      Is why everyone should have a defensive weapon.
      The best is a tatical whip like the fast strike or the stinger and others , is way better than pepper spray. these things hurt like crazy, easy to carry even in leggings, easy to use, and strike at a distance.
