My guest today is Tim Larkin, one of America’s leading Pro-Victim Rights and Personal Safety Advocates. He has had a 25 year career where he has trained over 10,000 clients in 52 countries in how to deal with imminent violence.

The topics are his books How To Survive The Most Critical 5 Seconds Of Your Life and Survive The Unthinkable.

In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:

• Virginia Tech killings and why it is important to study violence
• Looking at sports injuries for the purpose of self-defense
• Honor in fighting
• The relation between prison gang leaders and CEOs
• The importance of focusing on the man and his mind rather than the tool
• Avoidable acts of violence
• Why the United Kingdom did not allow Larkin into the country
• Avoiding violence from a game theory perspective.
