[kictanet] A simple security question

[Kerubo Ombati]

(b) they will run without looking back...but you should:

Turn in the opposite direction and take one giant step.
2. Drop to the floor immediately, face down.
3. Cross your legs, keeping them straight with your feet pointing toward
the grenade. We cross legs to protect vital organs, arteries and nerves on
the legs.
4. Keep your arms at the back of your head at the nape of the neck these
also will protect major ar-teries.
5. Keep your mouth open to balance pressure so your eardrums don't burst
