Even if she was not attempting to scratch the eye, she could not have done it because she was above the person. An eye cannot be scratched from the top because the brow protects it and the eye will quickly close to protect it. It's a reflex.

If you don't believe me, test it on a willing participant. Believe me, we have done it extensively.

It is humanly impossible to gouge someone's eye out from the angle that se was which was above him.

The only way you can scratch someone's eye is by bringing your fingers from the sides horizontally. You can't do it from top to bottom or from the bottom up.

Her only chance would have been to grab his head and jam her finger into his eye. That would be difficult since he doesn't have hair.

If the guy had some self defense training he would have known that it was physically impossible for her to hurt him from that angle.

Lol.

That is total and complete bunk.

No one said “gouge his eye out”, do you not recall the Pro O-lineman losing his eye, or at least his vision from the refs beanbag that hit him in the eye, THROUGH his face mask?

Ended his career, was awarded significant damages cause of it.

My kid was touch iand go with losing an eye after taking an iceball to the face in what was supposed to be friendly neighborhood snowball fight.

You need to go ask for your money back from this “training”...

In both instances that you mention, you are talking about a projectile being thrown at the eye. This is far different than when someone attempts to scratch your eye. If you go back to what I said, I believe I said that she could not have done anything to his eye unless she had something in her hand i. e. projectile.

You are absolutely clueless. Pigheaded and clueless.

She didn't have to attempt to scratch his eye to injure it. If during the swing he fingernail touched the eye it was going to injure it, intentional or not, because of the force she was swinging with and the fact that fingernails, especially female fingernails, tend to be sharp.

I'm sorry but you just don't understand the science behind what is happening.

OK. I'll be in El Paso in August moving my son home from that sandpit of a city. You volunteering?
