Lady shows off survival skill in hotel

Posted by @tamara_ella1 on TikTok, the video revealed the lady's simple yet effective method.

Weighing just 41kg and acknowledging her limited self-defence skills, she sought to ensure her safety while sleeping alone in hotel rooms.

Her strategy involved positioning a heavy chair against the door, creating a makeshift barricade.

The chair's movement would alert her to potential intruders, providing seconds or minutes to stand up and shield herself.

In her words:

"POV: You're about to sleep alone in your hotel room and you're a female that weighs 41kg, barely knows any survival skill and don't want to wake up in any forest with your hands tied to a tree. If you sleep too deep, you can do this too so when anyone tries to break in the sound of the moving chair will wake you up."

The TikTok video garnered massive attention, with netizens flocking to the comments section to share opinions and personal safety experiences.
