Yes. It is definately possible.1) Is it possible?
Anything goes. First of all, don't get involved unless you are willing to go the distance. Secondly, my feelings are in line with a couple previous statements, take out the biggest, strongest, toughest in the bunch first and take him out hard, no remorse. How you figure who that person is, could be another issue.2) If you feel that it is possible, what techniques, concepts, etc. do you use?
In my mind, it's the quiet, confident one. If I take out the tough guy, as fast and as hard as I can, the weaker will think twice about coming in. If I take out the weak guy, the tough guy may feel he needs to protect his friend ... IMHO
Another great point that has been mentioned numerous times throughout this thread, keep the person you are locked up with between you and the others, line them up.
N/A3) If you feel that it is not possible, please state why?
Whatever art you art trained in, is the art that offers you the best self defense at the time. No other art will help you. I'm in a stand up, hands oriented art, so of course I'll say it will work best.4) What art do you feel offers the best defense and why?
I would use whatever I needed to use in the case of multiple attackers, it's life or death. If picking up a pile of dog stuff and rubbing it in the face of an attacker will work, then I'll do it ... whatever it takes. Like I said before, be prepared to go the distance. Whether I survive or not, the group coming after me is going to leave wondering why they ever thought I should be their victim.5) If faced with multiples, would you use an equalizer to aid in your defense? (I'm referring to things such as a gun, blade, or any nearby object)
