Life is not an action movie. If that actually happened I wouldn't be blindly throwing myself in the middle of a group of armed/dangerous guys. I'd be calling the cops (they're more trained than I am to handle the situation) and freak out hoping nothing bad happens to her.

Whoa bold assumption there bud. You might want to recheck your math on that one.

In America you just stop by the next gas station and buy a ton of explosives and a machine gun with 30 filled magazines. Then you grab a jerrycan of gasoline and some lighters and the cashier wishes you a nice evening on your party.

We don't have guns where I'm from, and I don't have a car. So I'm more likely to get myself killed.

No no I'm pretty sure the math maths out.

Nah, I'm my fantasies I go Rambo style and slice everyone with a tactical knife while wearing a ghillie suit and warpaint, before carrying my wife victoriously in my arms to safety...but that wasn't the point was it ?
