At the same time the one who is making the attack may use his right hand in pressing against the left side of the victim's neck, and by the suddenness of the attack forcing a fall.
Still another variation, when a rear attack is desired, is to leap at the man who is to be attacked, throw the left arm around his abdomen, the right forearm around the neck, and bring one knee sharply into the victim's back. Having done this, the assailant, still retaining a firm hold, draws back so quickly that he forces the man attacked to his back. With his man down, the assailant, if he is quick enough, has things all his own way.
Another simple though painful trick that is employed is known under a name that may be translated as the "hair-pull." In this the attack is made by using the left hand, open, to clutch the victim's throat in such manner that the thumb presses hard against the muscles already spoken of that run down under the lobe
