Apparently the guy had some training in what to do in a similar situation.

I will admit I personally have never trained starting from an already been stabbed position, but there's proof it happens.

The main thing is he kept his head enough to immediately react by going on the offensive. He was armed which evened the playing field. He reacted instead of freezing up, which gave him a modicum of the element of surprise on his attackers.

He did exactly what RBSD theory tells you to do. Attack quickly brutally and until nothing is with in your danger zone.

He had only moments to react and asses the situation so he reacted on instinct and what he trained his mind and body to do in similar simulations during training.

I say good for him. he's proof you can defend yourself.

You are the first line of defense against violent crime.
