Some tips that may be of use in a tussle in which your life or that of another is in extreme jeopardy:
ONLY fight as a last resort, when you have exhausted all other options for evading a conflict.
Example: If a drunk fellow wants to get you, play on their inebriated state, outsmart them - offer them a drink, anything to diffuse the situation.
It is better to give up your wallet than fight if that is the objective of the opponent. It is not worth dying or being seriously injured for the 20, 50 or 1000$ in your wallet.
But if you've exhausted all peaceful options and the assailant wants YOU then you fight.
Anger is your friend, it can give you strength and determination when you're in danger, do not succumb to panic. When under attack make as much noise as possible to attract attention - scream. If fleeing on foot, head for the place that will have the most amount of people. Don't hide in/run to a dark corner/remote location where you can be dispatched (hurt/raped/killed) without attracting attention.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, especially when your life is in danger. Do everything within your power to defend yourself even if the action seems seem gruesome or extreme, it may save your life. If not, you will make your demise extremely costly for the attacker.
or just do what the doc says
