i know how do kill someone with a straw.

it's so fuck'n easy.

but i prefer a little thin pencil. the kind that you put the lead into, because it has a direct path out. And mechianical pencils are sharp. Pokes someone, then blow into the other end. It sends a teeny tiny bubble of air into their bloodstream. the bubble goes to the heart, and they croak.

The most painful everyday weapon is by far a twizzler, as anyone who has ever got into a twizzler fight can attest to.:D


Seriously though, I watched two guys who started to go at it, one had a 28 oz rig axe, the other guy had a 24 oz framing hammer claws out, that would have been messy. Especially since the guy with the rig axe had already been framing for years, knew how to use it and was in great shape. The guy with the framing hammer was skinny, barely knew how to swing it, and was crazy as a loon, he was the one that started it.


Nail guns also make vicious weapons, we used to always have nail gun fights till I stuck a 1 3/8" staple most of the way into a guys leg from 40 feet away. After that we decided to chill.

are you in prison?

don't hurt me!

ummm as someone who deals with infusion therapy on a regular basis it takes alot more than a teeny tiny bubble to kill anyone. Preferably about 10-20 cc fast into the largest vein using the largest needle you can get access to. Even then it may only cause arrythmia and maybe a stroke. The likelyhood that they will croak is very low.

As to everyday weapons:
Ballpoint pens are good. And cheap. :)
We used to use soap in a sock when I was in boot camp.
The skins around here used to carry the old style really heavy large plastic combs. Apparently if ripped across someones skin fast enough they could cut. The irony that they didn't have any hair seemed to be lost on them.
Lets not for get our household power outlets. Set up properly you could easily electrocute someone. Not a portable weapon by any means. More of a home defense type thing.
Speaking of which...bleach. Ever try to breath with your face covered in bleach? Hose the fucker down with it. If you're lucky he might asphyxiate.

lol

No I'm in construction, and this happened at a local community college where I was taking some construction related classes. It was kind of crazy. I've heard of a few other jobsite hammer fights, they didn't turn out well.

I've read that one of the old irish street gangs favorite weapons was a potato or two in a stocking. Cheap, easily disposed of, and they could be lethal.

Well,

I worked 10 months in a meat plant and the industry oldtimers would tell me about knife fights on the floor, but I never got to witness one.

We did have one suspicious incident where we thought two guys knifed each other, but they swore it was an accident.

:lol:
I can see how one guy might accidentally stab another, though even that's kind of sketchy, but for a two guys to accidentally stab each other?:hmm: I don't think so.

I can add little to ther serious dicsussion, of "real" weapons, but...

while bored in highschool, my friend and I developed my own weapon made only of a rubber band and a piece of paper.

The result would leave huge welt at atleast 20 feet.

It doesn't amaze me that people in jail can create such wild tools.

No one's said a roll of quarters. How about a lollipop, with the stick out between your fingers?

I read through alittle bit of this. But a everyday item that can be used that most of us carry around is a Credit Card.

Another neat idea would be Chop Sticks. OUCH!

A Wet towel.
Sure a belt was mentioned.
For ladies or even a man. A Shoe heel can hurt.

I saw in a magazine a long time ago where you could use a cap as a weapon. You crumple up the cloth and hold the bill in your fist, pointing out. You can use the bill to jab into someone's neck or right under their nose. OUCH!

Jail weapons
 

I didn't read the all the post, so i'm not sure if this has been posted aready.

As some of you may already know, many people in jail are in there because of violent crimes. Well even though they are in jail, it doesn't stop them from fighting.

Heres 3 popular weapons used in jails:

Towel Bat -- take a towel, soak it in water, twist it until you cant twist anymore then fold in half.

Sock Bat-- take a sock and some soap....soak the soap in some water then put it in the sock, while the soap is damp, mold it into a ball. wait until the soap becomes hard and you can just swing away

toothbrush shank-- take a tooth brush and carve it into a pointy stabbing object. the toothbrushes they give you in jail are small so you will need 2, just tie the 2 toothbrushes together with a strip of cloth you get from your bed sheet.

A few home-made weapons I can personally attest to:
Forks hurt like crap when you get stabbed w/ one, and even the little plastic ones you get in the school cafeteria can draw blood. (this actually happened to me once) Sporks will also be enough to draw blood (accidentally did this to a friend once... *oops*) but they generally shatter after used with enough force to do so.
Anything hot-- working in fast food I'm SURROUNDED by weapons. They tell you in the training videos that people like to rob fast food places cuz they're easy money, but I think you'd have to be fucking retarded. Besides the obvious ones (coffee, knives, one of those big ol' roll of quarters) I have a scar on my hand from getting whacked with a hot fry basket and have always thought that the metal spatulas we use on the grill could also do some damage.
Pencils. This has allready been mentioned a few times, but always with just close-range stabbing. I've had a kid use one on me throwing-knife style, and still have a scar to prove that it'll work.

I've heard of people getting pegged in the back by full cans of beer thrown from moving cars.

I don't think it's lethal. In fact my friend just picked up the can and drank it. (I think it's required that you do this.)

Your fists can be verry effective as a weapon

Really?

I'm gonna try that!!

how bout furniture...hit someone with a chair..or break off a leg and use it as a club...

The folded paper-in-rubber band weapon is VERY painful. We used to call them "hornets" (have no idea why), but you could easily leave very large welts, not to mention putting someone's eye out, if you're a good shot.

As for new suggestions:
A billiard ball in a sock (ouch).
A door (ever had a finger slammed in a door? or how about a door slammed in your face?)
Chain-link fence (good for face rubbin')
High-heeled shoe/boot
An Iron
Golf Clubs, etc etc.

find, cut, throw.

very simple.

:D

Here is a nifty trick... ok here goes.
first take a metle wire then wrap on end around a door nob.
Then & and you might want to use gloves :) stick the other end of the metle wire in to an electricle outlite and then whoever touches the door is going to be roast duck :)

Uhm... you need to connect two wires to complete the circuit... and you won't kill them or hurt them... regular electrical outlets don't have enough power to light you on fire (which would take an insane amount of current)... the current will take the shortest path through the hand and won't pass through the chest and reach vital organs. It won't even go deep inside the hands because the shortest path is straight through the doorknob.

You may however get lucky if they take a two handed grip on the doorknob really quickly :-)

Yeah i gues your right.
:)
It would be funny

beer cans, shake them up(what a waste) but throw them and BOOM one gernade, homeade corse and watch your foes get all your beer those fuckers, thats when fans with out the grills come in they fuck over your opponents quite nicely!!!!!

I do truely hope I never am in a situation where I must choose between beer and life/safety!!!

I'd be very interested to hear any stories of impromptu weapons used successfully in a real threat situation. I'd also be interested to hear about what actual threat the people on this board encounter on a regular basis that requires use of weapons. I've been studying theory and training for years but I've never encountered any threat that actually requires an actual physical response to resolve it.. but I don't live in the USA like you guys do. I would really like to be prepared when the time actually comes to defend myself from a real physical threat, so I would very much appreciate your stories of real world situations where you have used your skills/imagination/sheer animal instinct to defeat an attacker.

roll of duct tape. newly discovered beating device, Silly Putty, buy about 10 containers of this stretchy taffy like tearable substance. Roll it into a rope and beat someone with it, it hurts like a piece of rubber, yet it bends and can be reformed. In large globs of this material, I serisouly think it could be deadly ( a good blow to the head with a piece of hard rubber goo could do it maybe? ) Yeah, silly putty, who would have thought? heh, its 2:38 am here, maybe my mind is slipping ?

Well.. according to boondock saints.. a Toilet works quite well!.. as well as the cover for the tank.. that would be a nice weapon. Glass from anything works.. or just throw someone through your window.. break their head through the window...

HairSpray! Now I haven't used it like mace, but I can only imagine that stuff would sting in your eyes. Same goes for many things in an aerosol can. On top of that most of it is flammable. Aside from trying to make a risky Blow Torch.. After you sprayed them, aside from their hair, they'd be highly flammable.

If you have any type of tools in your garage... all of that is deadly.. put on some thick gloves, and grab a spare cicular saw blade... (or if it doesn't plug into a wall.. grab the whole thing! :D)

Water Balloons.. not much dmg, but its bound to at least make them pause for a second.. especially filled with Scolding hot water.

Rulers - can always sharpen the wooden ones if needed
Forks! -- I'm not talking about stabbing, I once got burnt by one. If its made by a weaker metal.. say the stuff they have in school.. start bending it back and forth over and over again.. right before its about to break, that metal is REALLY hot. Make contact to someone's skin. I had a scar on me for over two years because of that.

Small Hand-held Objects - We all know anything small that can be thrown works great.
Rope - duh?
Women's Nylon stuff - I forget the name, but it easily doubles as rope for purposes of strangling.
Purse -- Its like using a sock with soap.
Did anyone say Golf Club
Pocket Change - My cousins can snap those at you and leave nice marks.
Ok I'll stop here, with one last thing, as I might have listed some duplicates... I think a Tall CD Tower could double like a baseball bat

edit: I have to add this one in: Super Glue - I mean if you could get that one someone... that would mess them up a little.

Steel-toe shoes/boots. Unless you see me wearing Chuck Taylors or flip-flops, assume that my footwear has jaw-breaking capabilities.

Some Lethal Homemade Weapons!

Put a pistol or revolver in a sock and swing it!

Tie a bunch of knives together to make a bat!

Sharpened brass nuckles make excellent throwing stars!

Breaking a baseball bat in half will make an excellent speaking device.

Boiling water can be put in the freezer then carved into a knife.

Rings on ur fingers is very effective.

hehe.. a friend of mine once got blood poisoning because he shook my other friend's hand and the ring cut him... and then the blood poisoning from the ring.....

Its only funny because of the story behind it, but yeah he was in the hospital for a while.

The deadliest weapon in the world is the human brain. What can compete with that? Lions, Tigers, and Bears run from us puny humans. Why? We don't have sharp claws or teeth, or tough hide. We cannot run fast, or jump far. We cannot track by smell, see in low light, or even hear very well. And yet there is no animal that we are incapable of killing to extinction. It's the brain folks. Use it against an adversary and you'll be amazed at the things you're capable of.

Heavy cotton tie tied in a knot. Hurts like a bitch when swung hard.

Ok, you guys have some pretty good ideas for lethal weapons however, The all-time most evil weapon around the house is a candy cane ... Any of you ever seen how freaking sharp those things get if you suck on them for a bit? I cringe when someone near me is eatting a candy cane, I can just see them dropping the damn thing and impaling me then having it break inside since they are sharp and flimsy.

Needles annoy me, knifes (in my sisters hands) scare me, but candy canes is a turn around and run situation.

a sock with a bar of soap inside, ever seen Full Metal Jacket?

as far as househould manageable weapons, i wouldn't suggest anything that wouldn't take pre-meditated thought to produce.

a few fun things to keep around the house--

half a broomstick. make it about the length of your forearm or slightly longer. enough to get leverage but not so long you have no room to swing it effectivel. also good for jabs to soft-tissue areas (eyes, throat, solar plexis, backs of joints) as well as swinging.

a little league baseball bat. mine was like 26 inches of aluminum. light enough to be used one-handed and strong enough to do some damage. always something i kept handy when throwing parties or helping run them.

ladies--several rolls of quarters (40-50 dollars worth) in the bottom, especially of smaller purses. added weight, but it makes a difference as a striking object.

a blackjack. collapsable lengths of metal tubing, one inside another. has replaced the nightstick with the majority of police officers I know. collapses to 5-8 inches, and telescopes out to 14-18 inches of steel tube.

fireplace poker. wrought-iron, decent length. tons of fun.
