Anyway, it's not untrue. It will stop an attacker as effectively as pepper spray. The range may be longer, too.
I guess, with things that seem to be good tips, it's good to get the source. If it's just passed from person to person, snopes is worth checking. If the source is a reputable magazine or newspaper, I'm more likely to trust it. (But not online sources. Yahoo! often publishes blog entries as news stories, and I've seen far too many bit of misinformation in them to trust them without checking further.)
