Re: How many 5 year-olds.....
So why do all of you assume it's a guy doing the defense? I used to be a field hockey goalie, and I have no nuts to defend.
Now, if they had adult planning skills, it would be much tougher... After all, if we were talking about 30 40-lb dogs, we might not be so optimistic. So - are teeth that much more worrisome than hands? If 3 kids hug each leg, what does that do to your maneuverability? Can a couple of them line up to form a knee-high barrier behind you that you can be pushed down over? Plus the downed attackers would be easy to stumble over...
If you fall and they pin each limb, the weight would be difficult. If they just go for the torso, then not so many can concentrate on the area.
My conclusion: if they don't get you down in a hurry and you can pick off a number of them right away, they are unlikely to prevail.
