Thank you for posting. Pulling the fingers back and stepping back to throw someone off balance are simple self-defense maneuvers that are good to know whether you are attacked at an ATM or elsewhere. Please, don't get caught up on the ATM aspect of the video. That isn't the point.
The point is to try and learn something that could save your life if you are being grabbed from behind. I'd pray that none of us are ever attacked or grabbed in an unwanted manner, but if it does happen, maybe something about the video and discussion will be stuck in our memories. Don't forget to scream at the top of your lungs something like "back off!" It shows you are noncompliant and not an easy target. Take away their focus and give yourself a chance to escape.
