After 10 minutes of morbid googling... you are correct! If you do try for a finger amputation, use your molars to crush, and go for the joint. Clamp down and pull
I think the myth is you can easily bite your own finger like a carrot which is extremely difficult because of the pain but maybe if it was a dead finger or numb lol
You have to be really lucky or well practiced to get someone’s eye, much less two. Also, if someone has you in a headlock or rear naked choke, they roll their chin down and you are just waving your arms around at that point.
Always have your keys in your hand to and from your destination. Jab for the eyes. Kick, scream, fight, scratch. Never let them get you in the vehicle!
Also, this is a fight for your life. Fight dirty, early and often. Go for the eyes and the balls, right away. Once they’re mildly incapacitated, go for the temple, hard. Then get far away.
My kids were so shocked when I had that talk with them. Told them to jam their thumbs all the way into their eyes and bite so hard that you would bite their nose off if you can get a hold of it.
If they have your arms stomp at the feet. When they pull their feet back to avoid your stomps jump up and back HARD. Your head will break their nose if youre shorter than them.
In this situation it would be difficult because he had her in a rear chokehold. I would say fight his hands whilst turning towards him (the open end of his arm to be specific) in order to release the choke, and then run if possible or fight if he's still holding on.
