My instinct would have caused me to reach for her flailing arm. You know, to protect myself from her arm, which she was swinging wildly. Her face wasn't the part of her body that was attempting to slap me, I wouldn't have reached my arm out to deck her in her face. I would have reached my arm out to grab her arm, the arm that was hitting my head.
You were just backhanded, are facing away from the attacker, and see her face before anything else as you turn around.
What are the chances you are going to catch that arm before she backhands you again or pokes your eye out?
Better yet, what are the chances you actually paid attention to the video?
He would have had to drop her to turn around to get to her swinging arm with his free arm, or waited for her to swing a THIRD time and hope to catch her arm if it passed in front of him.
Seriously, did you even pay attention to the video? Or are you just here for the band wagon?
