Would you have prevailed in this?

There's no way to know. We don't know what precipitated this event, or what he knew ahead of time. Did he have fair warning before direct action was taken against him? Was he aware of his surroundings?

But here is my best guess:
If I were on the ground as he was early in the video, with the amount of time he was given before he was shot repeatedly towards the end? Yes, I could have responded in time. We can see that early in the video, the guy with the white jacket had only a pellet or bb gun of some type (manual reload, no muzzle flash) and he was blocking any shot for the other guy. However, I would like to know more, because the situation should not have advanced this far in the first place.

Prevailed as who? The bystander with the backpack in the beginning? The shooter in the white? His accomplice? The shot person falling through the doors? The video shows a person who has already been shot, not when he was first shot and not what precipitated it when he would have had a chance to "prevail." Internet gossipers acting as experts indeed.

I think, at the risk of responding in a smartass way to a smartass comment, that we can assume we are talking about the CCer who was actually being attacked and very clearly either won or lost. I'm going to assume we are not talking about either of the BGs, or those who were not involved at all or left.

My money is on the chance that all 3 of the guys being bad guys/gang members. It is crap like this that gives the antis all the more reason to scream "see we need more gun control" as loud as they can. Just like the one commenter said "******* savages"

my first response to this video was:

"That dudes gun sucks, did you see how many times he had to clear it to get it to fire."

second response was:

"He got killed with his own gun."
