If someone suddenly attacks me with a pocket knife, for example, they’ll most likely immediately go right for my belly, since I am 6’5" tall, and stab or rip it open. Therefore, I’m curious how fatal and painful such a wound is?

    Makes sense. Do you think that my tall height puts my belly in a more vulnerable and exposed position in case of an attack?

          I don’t know, man, maybe you could carry around a watermelon or a box of old records around? That way you protect your belly, but it’s like super casual so you blend in. Like “Oh, let’s stab that guy… wait, no, he’s on his way to a barbecue. Can’t be stabbing him, there’s a watermelon in the way.”

      Height is generally an advantage as it usually comes with increased reach and strength.

      Avoid knives at all costs, but if you can’t use your reach to protect your vital bits until you can get away.
