Mods,
I apologize in advance if you do not want the video linked in this way. The website is mostly geared towards "college humor."

I just got back from two weeks in Europe, and this video really got my attention. I spent a fair amount of trains and buses but never had a problem.
It looks like the victim in this scenario almost goes out of his way not to be aware of his surroundings. I assumed he was a tourist at first, but the video does include audio, and it seems he does speak the language.
5 on 1 is never good odds, but maybe being more aware of his surroundings and not looking like a soft target might have led to a better outcome for this guy.
Anyone here ever deal with this type of situation?
Ever step in when you saw it happen to someone else?
I would assume that in much of Europe concealed carry is not an option.
