Gotta Tense Situation? Do It Like Doc Holliday
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
If someone gets in your face there is one way to flip the situation on it's head - and that is using humour. You can grab that high status by making the situation funny.
Doc Holliday uses sarcasm to make things more surreal; to sell the opposite of something when it's really outrageous. The key being to demonstrate you are playing on a different level. By doing this things don't escalate in the here and now.
He puts himself in the right headspace by creating a Version B of his persona. This image is the one that lets challenges to his rep just bounce off him. It gives him the chance to think clearly about his next move in the here and now.
He doesn't restrict things to his words either. He lets his body demonstrate things in a humorous and sarcastic way. When his body is doing funny things he keeps strong eye contact. It shows that level of sarcasm as his body is being outrageous and his eyes are selling the silliness.

The reason why Doc was so calm and collective in tense situations is because he was dying of tuberculosis. He was perfectly content with death, and with that being said, he was very chill in gunfighting situations.

No, it's because he was a doctor and had access to Ether and would use it everyday.

You're both wrong....Doc Holliday was so calm in these tense situations because they weren't real and he was just an actor only pretending to be Doc in a Hollywood movie...it was all scripted you dunderheads.

I was just about to say the same thing
The only reason Billy The Kid saw past age 16 was because he was reckless, always did the unexpected. The reason Doc Holliday lasted as long as he did, was because he was deliberate, and always did the unexpected. Doc is an intriguing historical figure.
Val Kilmer hired an expert dialogue dialect coach who knew the 19th century dialect of the Southern Aristocrat. HOLIDAY was born into an aristocratic family. VAL did an amazing job with the part and carried it off perfectly. What a role perfectly done. **I'm your Huckleberry....**
Also, having a death wish or not caring if you die or not helps as well -Doc
Also it can't be understated that he's a killer in the movie and when his mouth doesn't diffuse the situation he's ready to back up his s. Talk
Doc should of won a oscar!!!
Only Val could play Doc,Jim,and Neeck

a point that no one saw...The revolver spinning show that Ringo did...Doc watched. then repeated it exactly with the cup. Only Ringo realized that Doc was THAT good.
The reason that doc could live like he did is he knew that he has a death sentence and there for he has nothing to lose and that's what made him truly deadly. It's also the reason why Wyatt could not beat Ringo Ringo had nothing to lose he hated the world he wanted to revenge for being born doc had nothing to lose because he had a death sentence and he was living a death sentence and he knew it but Wyatt had something to lose he had something that he loved that he hung on to Doc he was already dead he had nothing to lose when somebody truly has nothing to lose they are the one of the deadliest beings on the planet and this is why Ringo would have won had Wyatt Earp challenge Ringo because Wyatt Earp had something to lose

100% Agree
Doc lived the truth that Maximus/Aurelius from Gladiator once said “Death smiles at us all. All a man can do is smile back.”
I found that in combat and as a cop there were two types that got hurt. Those that were to reckless and those that were to c areful.
No. You just wait. Patience is a virtue - someone once said. You wait and bring things to an end, when the time comes.
Really interesting idea, shifting the focus to disarm adversary. Probably you could find more examples in The Sting. It would be cool to show it also in writing/texting. In martial arts, one blocks an attack but has the option of also moving one’s body (the target), termed ‘parry’ by some. Fascinating idea.
Doc is the only one that doesn't jump
So if I want to be calm in any situation I need to be dying of TB…
I speak with the same Southern accent as Doc. Great man!

Speaking in a Southern accent adds a lot to your game,Mate.Enjoy.
He’s the only one that didn’t flinch when the shot was fired. Ice water in his veins
it was easy the unconcerned nonchalant doc holiday had a death wish and like most people who do it's the fear , the excitement and the adrenalin that is the hook that kerps them going
I loved how Doc got Ringo's own right hand to laugh! Oh Ringo, I love Doc he's always Soo funny!! Oh! you still mad! 😁😜 Ha ha ha ha
Humor can defuse a lot of situations and most of us won't be in a life or death situation. My last place of employment had the owner's daughter shacking up with a loser employee who, when he wasn't calling out sick, was going home early. One morning I find out he didn't even bother coming to work, complaining the transmission in his car was broken. when someone raised the point he could have carpooled in with his roomate, I said, "well, that's interesting, now she has two things at home that can't finish a shift". Had i phrased that any other way, I would have been in trouble.
He was ROBBED of an Oscar! He didn't PLAY Doc; he BECAME Doc. Tombstone & Unforgiven are the 2 best Westerns that have ever or WILL ever be/been made. Of course, that's just my opinion.
Need to be quick mentally if you’re playing that game. I’ve seen many get punched and I’ve had guns pulled on me. Only reason I still have a head is because I got a chuckle
2' funny what makes a person cool under stress is his experiences situational awareness can't be taught just like instincts can only be developed by life experiences as for a verbal quip that all depends on 1's mental acuity or how many old sean Connery bond movies that 1' grows up on
Say when!

Thanks Rahul! That's awesome man. Feel free to fire me a question about any vids.
you need to fix your sound its way to low
I do not recommend that really. Sometimes a character can fit your image of the moment, but hmmm. In describing something, and how something is working, you can use these kinds of videos to speak for you in a situation, which is your exact words that you are portraying, therefore, these things made in the past I use to speak for me, are no coincidence in situations, and explain them to a tee. There are no coincidences in things, they have a reason. Every word and detail etc.
Okay content creator dude. If you ever read this you should just know that you resemble the main character Lucian from the first Underworld movie's son that has almost a case of full-blown AIDS that is also battling and surviving some kind of mild cancer. Don't get mad! I'm just saying.

You know how you've seen some people in life that look like they could be like a fat Abraham Lincoln or a Chinese Michael Jackson?

You're REAL good lookin man and you have a marvelous absolutely gorgeous lions man of hair. If you were to put some definition in your neck and in your shoulders.......🥵EEEMMMHHH! GWAD DAMN BOY!!!😍
Doc was hardly cool. He had flash temper especially when drunk which was most of the time.
Uhhhhh....could u take a moment longer to actually explain what the heck ur talking about? I couldn’t understand half of what u were saying! -The humor part doesn’t work unless ur already a funny person who’s quick on the draw, as it were. U can’t decide to become that way, either at all, or without probably a lifetime of practice. -“believe in ur sarcasm”? What on earth does THAT mean? Sell the sarcasm? What is there about sarcasm that would be sold....Sarcasm just is, it’s not something that someone can believe or not. -second persona/version B??? Whether u mean a second person, or an alternate personality, u don’t explain that, or HOW to make that actually WORK! If u mean other person, u don’t explain how to do that(that’s not self explanatory at all), but if u mean alt personality that doesn’t make sense, cause ud STILL hafta be able to do whatever the second personality would b there for, with ur normal personality, in order for u to be able to do it with ANY personality, UNLESS ur legitimately insane, and have alt personalities that actually HAVE alt.personalities, which isn’t at all a conscious choice.) I could have used this info more than most, but it was SO disappointing....no substance beyond what everyone already knows, cause most isn’t explained at all, and THATS all the important stuff that would matter to anyone watching this. On top of that, I swear this must be just excerpts from a longer discussion, cause u just throw around terms and jump from this to that, and pronouns, and it’s not even clear who ur talking about by what ur saying, and it’s like ur suddenly talking about some new aspect of what u mean....I dunno, it’s late and I’m tired, but I don’t FEEL like that’s why I’m having trouble at all. Am I the only person having these troubles, and not being able to follow, and not getting anything out of what could have been SUCH a useful video???

Perhaps you're simply a little slow, young man, or tired and drunk. Or you are a bit too earnest to change your approach to stressful situations, or when faced with challenging people. Living life is about always learning, through good or bad. I have more wisdom, but you have to start paying me cash money for the rest of my insights. After all, we are not communists.....yet!
