You're walking down the street with a pep in your step.

When Bo, everything goes black, you've been blindfolded and your hands are tied.

You feel yourself being put in the trunk of a car and the vehicle takes off.

The main thing for you now is to collect your thoughts, analyze the situation and be very attentive.

Get control of your breathing deep breath in count to five and exhale.

Are you ready to get out of the situation?

When you were walking down the street, you might have seen someone shadow behind you or heard footsteps.

I know nobody pays attention to this stuff, especially when we all have our eyes on our phones and our ears are plugged with music.

You should always be a little vigilant and aware of your surroundings.

The very beginning is the most crucial part.

Starts screaming immediately and resist with all your mind.

The perp might not have expected all this trouble, and you could break free.

If you find yourself in the trunk or backseat of a car, yelling will be useless.

Except if you feel the car stop and you hear other people's voices.

In this case, call for help as loud as possible.

If they start by tying you up, make fists and tense up all your muscles.

If the rope goes around your body, puff out your chest, just don't be too obvious about it.

All this will help make the ties looser when you relax your muscles later.

If they tie your hands in front of you, keep your wrists closer to your body.

This will create a small gap between your wrists, the perfect place to put something sharp to cut the rope.

If you're dragged into a car, immediately tried to block the ignition or put the key out and throw it far away.

You can block the ignition with a coin, a piece of metal chewing gum, anything that'll keep the key out and prevent the car from taking you away, or at least buy you some time.

If you didn't manage to do that, Then first, assess your physical state.

Once you've calmed down a bit, check yourself.

Do you have some wiggle room in your ties?

Perhaps you can see through whatever's covering your eyes.

If possible, get to the rear seats through the trunk.

It'll be much easier to escape from there, and the perpetrator won't see it coming.

If you can't do any of that, look for a jack or some other heavy object.

When the car stops and the bad guy opens the drunk, you'll have some protection.

Make a mental note of all the details of the trip.

Visualize the road count the time between turns left 45 seconds right 125 seconds.

You might even be able to figure out the route.

Then, if you manage to call someone, you'll be able to tell them where you are.

How many voices you hear assess their emotional state?

It won't help you much now, but these details will be very important to the police.

If at any point you hear them talking about your freedom, don't get too excited.

You still need to be in survival mode, and getting overly relaxed might make you inattentive.

Think about the reason you're in this situation.

If so, then they'll probably ask ransom for you, which could be good news.

Your calmness and friendly demeanor could make the purple let their guard down a little.

They might slip up and not notice something important.

Answer their questions wisely and thoughtfully.

Show them that you're worthy of respect, yet harmless.

You can even start a conversation, but don't overdo it.

They know this trick and they'll assume you're pretending to be polite.

You can see a watch on someone's wrist or even use the sun if you just can't be calm, solve mental puzzles.

This will distract you from severe stress.

Your captor might give you a phone to tell your family that you're okay so they won't start worrying and call the authorities for such cases.

You need to have a code word or phrase on hand.

For example, today I had a wonderful day is always Ah, wonderful day, as always, is your code that you're in trouble if you somehow get a chance to call.

Leave the phone on so they can track your call.

Don't attempt to remove your own blindfold or this person's mask.

That means they're planning on letting you go without being identified.

If you happen to see their face but they didn't notice, keep it to yourself.

If you're trapped in a locked room for several days, keep yourself fit.

Push ups, squats, jumping jacks, jogging in place anything you can do.

It's a nice distraction, and exercise improves blood flow.
