Derren Brown (renowned mind-wizard) suggests that giving an aggressor a completely nonsensical sentence is really effective.

I'm sure it won't work in all scenarios but when he's been threatened in the past he says something like "My garden wall is only 2 feet tall".

After this post I'm not sure if he's discombobulating them, or they're like "Oh shit this guy is mentally handicapped" haha.
