    How many 5 year olds could you take on?

    My friend e-mailed a link to a forum discussion where they had this, and I remember we did this like a year or two ago (but I couldn't find the link).

    Here are the specifics:

    - 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.


    My number would probably be like 30...I think i could mow throw a bunch to start, but after a while they'd swarm me and there would be too many. Probably take out 10-15 or so, but at that point they'd probably somehow knock me down and it'd be all over

    Zero

    The idea, even as a light-hearted joke, of physically attacking 5 year olds (when I have a 6 and 4 year old) makes me physically ill to even imagine.

      What if I took one and just swung him around, knocking out everyone that got near me.

          I remember we did this some time ago and I made this long post describing in detail the warfare I had with this kindergarden class. I'll see if I can dig it up.

            I understand where you're coming from, but it's just a hypothetical fake question...I guess I think of it similar to GTA San Andreas, I'm killing people left and right in that game, ruthlessly, when they don't deserve to die, but doesn't mean I'll do it in real life...

            though I don't have kids, and therefore don't humanize the situation with people close to me, so I think that's it...I'm sure if i had kids I'd be a lot more like you with this one after further thought

                I'm gonna go conservative and say 10-15. Would just be too many of them.

                            Hmm but that article uses 12 year olds.


                            But still very though provoking.
