However with the right training, fast movements and of course physical strength, there is a chance that you may pull it off. Anyway, if and when you are held at gunpoint you need to do something before the bad guy pulls the trigger. Indeed you are right in the middle of a life and death situation.

You need to stay calm and keep emotions under control to disarm a gunman. It would be easy to cry and plead for mercy but you don't know what's going on in the attacker's head. If he has the intention to kill you, then there is no way that he will change his mind and show compassion. It's understandable that a scenario like this is not what anybody wants, but a reality check should always be done because you never really know. When you are facing a life and death situation, you need to make at least an attempt to spare your own life.
