How to Survive an Armed Robbery

How to act and what to do to reduce the chances
of being hurt or killed during a robbery.

Every year, thousands of Americans suddenly find themselves in this situation. Some are injured and some even killed… because they didn’t know what to do, or how to act ... during an armed robbery.

This film is a remake of the original hit Armed Robbery Survival Techniques. This film has been used by many of the biggest retaliers in the country and has trained thousands of people in the life saving skills to survive a terrible event. This program saves lives.

Because of the dramatic increase in armed robberies, this timely video will become a valuable asset to any business safety training program. 

Produced in cooperation with Virginia Tech (as part of their program to teach high school students about business) it was used in almost every high school in the state. In the time it has been in use, this program is credited with saving lives.

This program was inspired by an incident where two felons were traveling to Florida from South Dakota. Running low on cash the two stopped to rob a grocery store in Indianapolis. The assistant manager tried to disarm one of the perpetrators. As a result, the assistant manager and several customers were shot and killed by the angered gunman. If the assistant manager had been given (and followed) proper training, these lives likely would have been saved.
