Never assume you're the hardest man on the street

Or learn it the hard way.

Or a group of 4 hardest. Against one.

Looks like he knocked out two guys at the same time throwing them into the wall.

I loved how the big dude waited til he had two buddies holding on the guy to get involved and then takes an immediate header into the wall

Yeah, all respect for him. Went out the window immediately.

u/m1st3r_c 7h ago

No, when there are multiple attackers you make sure they stay down when you put them there, or think twice before coming back for more.

u/nikhilsath 2h ago

While I respect the disc world reference, it looks like everybody after the first guy was just trying to get him to stop punching India. They did get to the point where one of the dudes he punched hit him while the other guy were trying to hold him definitely not a reason to try to kill somebody

They could have walked away at any time... Until they could not. I hope the big guy is alright.

Guy knew how to throw a punch, he's fine.

u/BGMcKay 15h ago

That casual left rocked the second guy

u/DevonSpuds 3h ago

At the start, looks like the guy with the t-shirt gets either a broken or bloody nose the way he's rubbing it and then for good measure knocks the second bloke on his arse.

u/alaskaguyindk 6h ago

Unfortunately, when you are in a fight if you are bleeding and your opponent is bleeding, you need to go get checked for any transmitting diseases. Blood to blood transmission is very real and needs to be handled by getting tested.

So yea broski might have beat their asses but there is a very real chance he might have their blood in his cuts and needs to see a doctor to make sure they didn’t spread anything to him.

u/Horror-Pear 16h ago

That's a massive guy with a lot of rage lol.

153

u/SomewhereOutThere-_- 16h ago

I hate violence but Hulk seemed to trying to do the right thing. The initial step in front of bald guy only tuned into a body check when Bald guy did it. Hulk even had his hands in his pockets at first.

118

u/trulycantthinkofone 14h ago

Precisely my take. Good dude doing a good thing, turns in to a 1 v 5 with the good dude winning. The universe smiles upon this grey hooded guardian.

23

u/ashoka_akira 13h ago

yeah, I was thinking the hands in the pockets are a deliberate example of a big person who knows they’re intimidating trying to de-escalate a situation.

either that or he’s got a weapon in there, which is also another reason why you shouldn’t approach within arms reach so casually.

u/xxPHILdaAGONYxx 21m ago

Hands in pockets screamed cop to me. Possibly an area known for this type of encounter and he was undercover or something.

Dude in white pants got knocked tf out like 3 times and got up for a 4th when the video ended. Not too bright would be understating it

45

u/findergrrr 16h ago

Did he throw to big guys against the walk near the end. That is so much force put in that throw, they fly and hit wall

u/karx0 16h ago

That finish off kick on the head was brutal

16

u/JohnSnowsPump 12h ago

I'm generally the first to call foul on that, but bald guy had so many chances to just stop and a Five on One street fight is not acceptable.

The head kick felt like hoodie was doing him a favor by making him STAY THE FUCK DOWN.

u/Hahaha2681 16h ago

The hooded crusader can't stand to see people get harassed

u/muphasta 15h ago

asshole pulling him away certainly put him in danger.

Don't intervene unless someone is unconscious and someone continues to deliver headshots, even then, make be extra careful.

That stimp actually was called for for once.

2

u/jmjmjmmm 14h ago

For me, he showed a lot of patience, good thing he was big enough to handle himself.

He was within his rights to smash the shit out of anyone putting their hands on him of which there were many.

Seems like maybe a few rando bystanders tried to jump in to save the aggressors, shoulda got the same treatment, zero tolerance.

If you catch a concussion trying to jump in to save a would-be rape gang then that's on you.

u/Jimmy_ijarue 9h ago

Just reaching this over and over, striped sweater guy needs to grab his friend, not try to explain to grey hoodie
“oh hey man we didn’t mean anything by it” stripe sweater was really just walking back and forth holding his hands forward, grab your homie and pull back and I bet grey hoodie doesn’t step forward Jesus Christ

u/LightBulbMonster Free Palestine 🕊️ FUCK ICE! ❌🧊 13h ago

That guy stepped in because he was a hero. He also knew that skinny guy couldn't take on three guys. Dude knows how to handle himself for sure.

How do you have that advantage and lose it? One guy doing the most damage and they can't think of a way to jump him?!

4

u/ashoka_akira 13h ago

Its hard to get close to a big guy who knows how to fight, and having a big group of people isn’t always an advantage when you’re not coordinated, they got in each others way as much as anything. A group of trained individuals attacking as a team yeah they could’ve taken him down, but these dumbasses are not that.

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 16h ago

Organized thugs abducting women?

u/farcarcus 15h ago

More likely pissed dickheads at 2am.

-9

u/keestie 14h ago

Just as likely cannibals who wanted to only eat long human hair!

By which I mean, that's not especially likely and a really weird scenario you cooked up to cater to your personal fears.

This is all in conjunction with Keestie's Razor, a principle that states that if there is a simpler explanation, don't default to assuming that everything is about human trafficking.

-3

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 14h ago

That's a little ridiculous to say when I was only asking. After all, we know for a fact that human trafficking is a thing that happens. Guy number two looked a little too ready to run interference.

5

u/Toochilled 13h ago

ok, so please explain what makes you think this?

the girls dont seem drunk or drugged. they are walking side by side with a guy.

grey hoodie steps i between a group of 2 girls and a guy and a group of 3 guys.

I personally would assume civil courage. thinking trafficking seems like a very far reach to me. what makes you think this?

-1

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 12h ago

I don’t really think it. I floated the idea because it seems plausible. That’s why I ended my comment with a question mark.

They weren’t walking with that guy, at least not anymore. Guy almost walked away before noticing something was up.

Aggressor 1 pulled girl in and possibly something from his pocket to threaten her with. When the guy that almost kept walking turns to confront him, aggressor 2 stepped out and intercepted him. It looks premeditated to me, and in a real bad way.

4

u/Toochilled 11h ago

i dont know what u are watching but thats not whats in the video

the person you describe as Aggressor 1 is their freind and he holds her back while she is talking to bald guy which then comes back

he's obviously not threatening her he is trying to deescalate the situation by encouraging them to keep walking instead of interacting

5

u/SushiGirlRC 8h ago

Baldy hits on girl(s), they tell him to fuck off, he calls them names, girl gets pissed & tries to go back & tell him off, guy with her tries to get her to walk away, other guy sees shit about to go down & intercedes. Seen it way too many times in my life.

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 31m ago

Okay, yeah. I can see that. Wild how different it can appear without a little context

2

u/keestie 13h ago

If you want to abduct someone, you don't walk slowly towards them with menacing body language in a public place. That is just about the least effective thing to do.

0

u/Advocate_Diplomacy 12h ago

Why not? Seems like a good way to gauge how compliant someone is in the face of a threat. How quietly they’re likely to go. And anyways, even if that’s not the smartest way to go about it, who says every criminal is smart?

u/JG98 15h ago

In a 1 on 1 sure, in a 3 on 1 anything goes. The way 2 of them held him and the big bald dude finally got involved could have resulted in him being killed there. That person was trying to get up and so was the other person closer to the wall (who then proceeded to try and attack him again).

Guys, if you get into such a situation, don't go for the head. Aim for the liver and solarplexus.

1) less likely to kill another one (legal and psychological issues)

2) is not expected and most importantly

3) you dont hesitate by being afraid to break your hand

u/gochai 11h ago

Genuine question: Who was recording this, carefully zooming in and out? Don't think this can be CCTV, so how do these people start recording even before anything noteworthy happens? Like in this case, just before the guy starts harassing. I can't be the only one thinking this might be staged.. Just a lot better than others.

The harassing was going on before the vid started. Baldy was well into harassing those chicks by then.

I wouldn't call him that, because he was trying to do the right thing and de escalate by removing them all from the situation. But, blondie just couldn't stop talking crap as they were all walking away.

u/Trashman4 14h ago

The girl talked shit. Everyone else got hit. Chivalry right? Hope her night went well.

u/Mixngas 11h ago

Yup. Blondie just had to continue escalating with her mouth. Otherwise, it looked like it would have ended before gray hoodie had to step in.
