I feel like I could bring an 8 year old down in just a couple blows so probably 20-30 if I could be backing up and maneuver them into attacking me a few at a time as opposed to getting encircled. Terrain would matter a lot.

If they are enraged I'm assuming they aren't planning or coordinating amongst each other.

Look, this isn't about the psychological impact of seeing an endless sea of tubby 8-year-olds baying for our blood. It's about the wear and tear on our knuckles and joints from hitting all of those 100 pound bone-filled heavy bags while they are scratching, biting, and falling all over us. It's going to affect some of our numbers.

You should be going for the face/eyes/throat anyway - more vulnerable, and would be right at midlevel I'm assuming if it was 8 year olds vs an adult. Like seriously one strong chop to the neck would probably put an 8 year old on the ground.

I've actually thought about this subject at length, I haven't read the thread so not sure if anyone else has it right but the correct answer is to grab the first one and just seriously gently caress them up. Like almost kill them. No 8 year old is gonna rush you after seeing his friends face hit the pavement

Have you ever seen super featherweight boxing? They don't often have the power to knock each other out and those are trained adults. There's just a limit to how much damage an 8 year old can inflict.

If 10 of them come at you at the same time thats enough momentum to trip you over and then youre done for.
As long as they line up and you can take them on one by one, its just a matter of stamina.
But if 5-10 children slam into you at roughly the same time, you are on the floor.

All it would take is a bit of damage to your hands from smashing them into skulls and teeth to start wearing you down. The second that one of your fists gives up the ghost, you're hosed.

Think you can just bruce lee kick your way through a horde of children? Not even, bro.

Honestly, I think three would beat me. I figure if I got lucky I'd knock one out with my longer reach as they ran towards me, but after that they'd probably just tip my skinny rear end over and that would be basically all she wrote.

Yeah, anyone claiming double digits here obviously doesn't have any children. I've met 8-year-olds that I wouldn't bet against in single combat with the average goon.

I've got two kids, and trust me: Children are total pussies, one good thump and they drop like a sack of potatoes. I could easily take out 20 or more before they overwhelm me.

But that's the crux of it: we are to assume these kids are not pussies, but filled with a murderous rage that only dissipates upon death.

Otherwise yes, I agree. That makes for a less interesting scenario though.

Assume all the children are coming at you at once, and they are unarmed. You are also unarmed. They are filled with rage and won't hold back - they would gouge out your eyes if you let them. How many could you take down before being swarmed and probably killed?

Deciding factor: Are any of them light enough to pick up and physically use as clubs?

We used to have schoolyard wars back in the winter. Each grade would build their fort and try to destroy everyone else's. It was every grade for themselves and we took it pretty seriously.

A couple dozen. Take down the first 5 or 6 really fast and use their bodies as shields and barriers to slow the surge. As the pile starts to get higher with unconscious children you could pace yourself and just start punching them as they crawl over their fallen friends. Eventually you'd just tire out though. I got in to a fair amount of fights as a teenager and I imagine if you can one or two hit a 12-14 year old it'd be even easier the younger they are.

I think you'd also need to know how to stop them. As in do they attack until they're physically disabled? Do you have to cripple their legs and arms or kill them? Or will a swift kick to the face causing a broken nose and/or jaw be enough to check one 8yo off the list? I'm pretty confident that unless they are mindless and immune to pain that I could take down an 8yo with a well placed kick or punch to the face.
