I just took a quick look at the CM vid, and his method is the opposite of the more legally defensible and threat stopping philosophy expressed in the Mike Janich video in JParanee's post. Matt's advocating center mass thrusts as opposed to the MBC philosophy of "defanging the snake", and Janich talks about both the science and legal aspect, both of which indicate the MBC approach is preferable for 1) stopping the thread and saving your life, and 2) keeping you out of jail afterwards. Don't take it from me, listen to what Janich has to say for yourself. But long story short: just because a wound is fatal and will cause a person to bleed out, doesn't mean he will stop trying to kill you yet. But if you cut his wrist tendons, and the quadricep just above the knee, he literally cannot attack you or chase you, and you (hopefully) don't have to answer for causing the death of another person.
