This YouTube channel compiles real-life incidents involving self-defense, criminal confrontations, and law enforcement responses. Presenting a variety of scenarios drawn from surveillance footage, body cameras, and eyewitness accounts, the channel covers topics including home invasions, shop robberies, street crimes, and interventions by armed civilians and police officers. Delving deeper into the complex nature of force utilization and decision-making processes, the channel provides critical perspectives on responsibility, ethics, and preparation in high-stress environments.

Every single day we post a real defensive encounter caught on camera and perform an after-action report on it for lessons learned. We educate the public on what we see that works and what we see that doesn't in real robberies, muggings, carjackings, and other defensive situations. Our approach is evidence-based, meaning we try hard not to have a pre-set dogma but to go where the actual evidence leads towards more positive outcomes for good people.

Active Self Protection trains people in armed and unarmed self-defense. Our motto: cover your ASP! (that means your Attitude, Skills, and Plan)
