today's important question

[lauralh]

from here:

How many 5 year-olds could you take on at once?

rules:

- You are in an enclosed area, roughly the size of a basketball court. There are no foreign objects.
- You are not allowed to touch a wall.
- When you are knocked unconscious, you lose. When they are all knocked unconscious, they lose. Once a kid is knocked unconscious, that kid is "out."
- I (or someone else intent on seeing to it you fail) get to choose the kids from a pool that is twice the size of your magic number. The pool will be 50/50 in terms of gender and will have no discernable abnormalities in terms of demographics, other than they are all healthy Americans.
- The kids receive one day of training from hand-to-hand combat experts who will train them specifically to team up to take down one adult. You will receive one hour of "counter-tactics" training.
- There is no protective padding for any combatant other than the standard-issue cup.
* The kids are motivated enough to not get scared, regardless of the bloodshed. Even the very last one will give it his/her best to take you down.

edit: I am fucking ashamed of you men. Five-year-olds have no stamina; one punch and they are DOWN. Revise your answers.

the whole trick here is to keep them at bay. use your advantage of reach and strength. well placed kicks to the head and neck will take these kids down (remember, they are fearless, one punch might hurt them but they will keep coming.).

if you let them get to close though, they will latch on and you will be overwhelmed. it only takes about 5 of them to do this.
