How to intervene as a team.
In this instructional segment, the speaker outlines a practical, team-oriented method for bystander intervention, drawing on the Marine Corps' standard protocol training. He introduces the "3 Ds" framework—Direct, Delegate, and Distract—as simple, actionable strategies for safely intervening when someone has had too much to drink. The talk then demonstrates how to apply this model in a party or bar setting by quickly rallying a small group of friends to back you up, creating a supportive presence. A concrete dialogue example is provided, showing how to approach the intoxicated individual (Aaron) and a friend (Jesse) to ensure a safe ride home, emphasizing the importance of collective action and clear communication. The overall message encourages proactive, collaborative intervention to protect peers from harm.
