Imagine for a moment you are out with your friends and some big, obnoxious, drunken fool decides he wishes to dance with you. After you politely turn down what he considers a generous offer, he becomes belligerent and wraps a big meaty hand around your wrist. This is called a wrist grab and when it comes to brute strength you know you will probably lose.
A wrist grab is easy to escape when you combine the twist your body with a sudden twisting movement of your hand against your captor’s thumb. You wish to work against the thumb because it is the weakest point in his grip. Wrist locks are a horse of a totally different color.
A wrist lock is a submission technique that often involves an opponent bending or twisting your hand in such a way pressure is placed on the nerves and bones of the wrist. A small amount of pressure can cause severe pain in the person being held while the appliance of more pressure can actually break the wrist itself.
As funny as it seem, this technique is one of the more practical ones on the street. Many times one have limited space and many kicks and even hand techniques are out of the question. This one is quick, simple and doesn’t need too much force to be used, as long as the aggressor wrist is not slippery and you manage to grab it nicely. BTW - The reverse lock is even better to my opinion.
Sort of like this:

I think that the point here is to move with your entire body, rather then just pulling the hand (which will need force), and placing your hand in an angle that is very uncomfortable to the opponent to hold.
Pulling the weight of your whole body will do the thing.
It’s a very effective style for real life situations.
