0:08 You nerd! 0:11 Yeah, what are you looking at? 0:13 Nothing. 0:15 Oops. 0:16 We should call you Dumble. I mean, look at your ears. 0:19 Yeah, elephant ears. 0:22 Have you ever been bullied, humiliated, and scared by someone bigger, stronger, or older than you? 0:28 I've seen my share of wars on the basketball court, but the last place you want to be at war is on the street. 0:34 Being bullied isn't fun. That's why it's important for you, all of us, to become street smart. 0:49 That's one way to avoid a bully, but not a very good one. 0:52 Avoid clothing that might make you look like you're part of a gang. 0:55 Avoid areas where bullies are known to hang out. 0:58 Tony's gonna be our bully today. 1:06 If I stand this way towards Tony, then he has all these areas that he can hit me. 1:10 You got something on your shirt. 1:12 Hey, you got something on your shirt. 1:15 That's right. 1:16 Oh, don't stop. Don't come any closer. 1:18 What do you want? 1:19 I was just wondering what we did in math. 1:21 Most bullies are going to be larger, stronger, and better fighters than you. 1:24 Never be ashamed to run. We will teach you some stun techniques and dirty tricks. 1:29 Hey, we want you to 1:30 Leave me alone. 1:31 We just wanted you to 1:32 I said leave me alone. Pretty good, huh? 1:36 Be careful not to grab the hair loosely. It will make the hair pull less effective. 1:40 Wade, can you show us? 1:41 Love to. 1:47 We want you to each make a fist, but we don't want to teach you how to punch. 1:51 Instead, we feel a slap is more effective. 1:57 Another effective slap is to the bully's 2:13 foot, run away, and we guarantee that he will be slow to follow. 2:17 Wade? 2:17 All right. 2:20 Biting is another simple technique. 2:31 Wade, would you like to try? 2:32 Sure. 2:36 Don't roll over on your stomach because the bully will grab your head and bounce it off the sidewalk. 2:41 Throw the candy in his face, and it gives me enough time to run. 2:44 All I have to do, sow the water right in his face. 2:47 If a bully is approaching you, you've got a magazine, just roll it up, hit him, and run. 2:53 I want to 2:54 Leave me alone. 2:55 We just wanted you to 2:56 I said leave me alone. 2:57 You want trouble, huh? 3:00 Pal. 3:06 After any of the stun techniques, run like you've never run before.
