misc How do I show frustration?

So I want to show frustration in max 5 - 10 seconds. Not 'tell' but 'show.' I was thinking of two people fighting in a dojo, one of them throwing the other and then being strangled. However, I'd love to know more ideas. What would you do?

it depends much on the situation. if for instance you receive a devastating letter you might just collapse and cry. if you are frustrated with an object you might destroy the object. if you are frustrated with a person you might lash out.
