If you find yourself on the wrong side of a bad situation, you may decide that improving the odds in your favor will be conducive to your good health. With only three simple objects, you can do just that. This proves that in the right hands, anything is a “deadly weapon.”
The “Millwall Club/Ax” Improvised Survival Weapon!
All you need is a regular size newspaper rolled up lengthwise as tight as you can make it.
(Note – It’s best to first wet the newspaper sheets because it helps you to roll them tighter and it adds weight to the paper. If you’re at a football game, beer will do in a pinch.
With the regular “Millwall Brick”, all you’d do is fold it in half and use it as an improvised “baton”.
Surprisingly hard and effective, trust me!
But then I tried something different…
Before I taped the Millwall up, I first stuck a rock in the folded end to form a hard “club”.
Then wrapped it tight with the duct tape, leaving each end of the rock exposed.
This is a great trick. What makes it even better is that you can improvise the essential idea behind this project out of most supplies. Not only does it provide you with more striking force, but you also get increased range and the psychological factor definitely goes up in your favor.
After all, would you want to fight a guy with a stone-headed club in his hand? Probably not.
Be careful when the cops show up to break up the fight, though. You having this, even if you were using it in self-defense, could be enough to make it look in court like you were premeditating an attack. That doesn't really bode well for your self-defense argument.
