Without turning this into a giant ramble (he said, after writing this 5 times and having it turn into a ramble about his childhood every time) my dad taught me this trick when I was a young teenager, and it saved my *** in many fights, but he called it a Cow Bite, and after randomly feeling like I should make sure that's what it's called, I couldn't find anything about it on Google.
So now I'm hoping if I describe how I did it, how people reacted to it, and how it felt when my dad did it to me (not in an abusive way, he was a giant teddy bear and would stop instantly if I tapped out), then someone can tell me what it's actually called (or confirm that it actually IS called a Cow Bite, and Google just failed me)
Looking back, I think I actually could of used it on any part of the body (I tested it just now, and was unable to use it on the under side of my own leg, but it hurt a lot when I used it on my forearm), but I personally only ever used it on the back of the calf, maybe around the lower part wher it's softest. I'd spread my fingers wide, then grip like I was trying to destroy a particularly tough stress ball. I'm not too sure about this part, but I think I remit being important to get a really good grasp of them, like if their muscle wasn't tense, or they had some flab (though I'm a fat guy now, and I think that might actually be protecting my legs rather than making them. An easy target, but it could just be that my body has forgotten how to do it after 20 years of not needing it)
Something about how I did the grip, and where I used it, would cause what most described as the worst pain they'd ever felt in their entire life, and the adrenaline of the fight, the thing that usually let us shrug off getting punched in the face, getting stamped on, breaking bones, or other dumb injuries, did absolutely nothing to block the pain. They'd suddenly go from pissed and ready to beat me up, to squealing, struggling to make me let go, and barely able to sting together a coherent enough sentence to beg me to stop. (and you'd think they'd knock me out as soon as I did stop, but most were so afraid of feeling that pain again, that they wouldn't risk getting within arm's reach. Especially since it left no marks to prove I touched them, and could be used subtly during class if I ever wanted to)
And before people think "they were teenagers, wtf could they know about pain?", my school was full of sadist and masochistic idiots who wanted to prove how tough they were, by playing dumb pain games like seeing who can hold onto a red hot central heating pipe the longest, or taking turns scratching your arm with a pin, adding more force after every turn, and seeing who gives up first (some guys still have legitimate scars from that one. People assume they're self harm scars, but they're from refusing to lose dumb pain games over 2 decades ago). Most people have heard of slapsies, where you hold your hands out in a prayer pose, and let the other person slap your hand, and if he misses then it's your turn, but I knew guys who would play till their hands were bright red and shaking uncontrollably, in too much pain to do anything by stand there, but too stubborn to admit defeat.
I hope someone can help me know what this is called, since it was easily my most useful.... Idk trick? Pretty sure this was more useful to me than learning how to throw a punch. (and unlike throwing a punch, there's less chance I'll punch someone in just the wrong way, and accidentally kill them, or paralysis them for life. Like what happened to my friend's brother when he punched a drunk guy he caught trying to force himself on a girl, only to end up being sent away for a few years when the unlucky scumbag ended up permanently paralysed from the neck down)
