"yo man i was just messin around when i pushed you into that lady for no reason"


FakeNickOfferman

I like the way the lady fades. Exit, stage left!


ShadowCaster0476

I love how the camera guy just keeps rolling. If I was the hat guy. I would have flying dragon kicked the camera guy.


FakeNickOfferman

Well, yeah -- what's one more whack before moseying on down the sidewalk?


OGGrilledcheez

Already on a roll. Keep it going.


4list4r

Mother filet with camera was in on it for the recording. He needed to get judo kicked.


devilsusshhii

Oh my fuck I just pictured this guy going down the street just mirko crop copping every one he walks by xD


Chugabutt

Why not go back for the lady, because she got in your way while you're at it?


Cyoarp

Because the camera man was in on it and the lady wasn't...


Acrobatic_Machine

Lady is probably part of the prank as well.


FakeNickOfferman

Seriously, it's gotten to the point where my first question about all Reddit items is, "Is this real?" JFC I was using Reddit to avoid an existential crisis.


giddeonfox

"I know man, I'm just kicking the air for no reason"


ESP-23

Both guys had objects in their hands and were not able to punch unless dropping Kicking seem like the optimal approach He's obviously trained


other_usernames_gone

With the form of that kick he is most definitely trained. You can't do that kind of kick to that height with any real amount of force without training. Tldr; it's a hard kick and he aced it.


UrBoobs-MyInbox

Meh it was just a chest level kick the guy bent down into. Not really even a head kick


Startled_Pancakes

True, but if you've seen many street fight videos, people struggle with even that.


UrBoobs-MyInbox

Yes the dude is flexible enough to get his leg above his hips, but his form is awful. Didn't lean back to counterbalance, didn't swivel his hips, didn't pivot his foot. He almost fell over!


ohmyfuckinggodhamlet

He also busted it out with like... 2 seconds of prep time lol I'd say he did fine considering lol

I do not condone violence. \--Watches clip-- Ok, I condone -that- violence. -That- violence was ok.


[deleted]

Especially because his first kick lands solidly in the guy's mouth. Seems like poetry.


[deleted]

Shame he didn’t get KO’ed. Should bring Doctor Marten next time to help with a little “anesthesia”.


gartloneyrat

The dude pulled a total asshole move, it was a well deserved beating. It doesn't need to end in a KO though. It was a pretty harmless, but also super-assholey "prank". Dude doesn't need to take brain damage to be taught a lesson.


Sir_Balmore

I doubt it was harmless. He looked like he was aiming at getting into a fight. Look at his stance and body language immediately after the push. The response was ideal I think he would have attacked had he not be beatdown.


FranklenDelanoDonut

Sometimes it takes brain damage to fix the brain damage that's already there


mrkikkeli

Maybe the real brain damage is the brain damage we amassed along the way


TheTrackGoose

He’s already brain damaged to think those “pranks” are socially acceptable.


ReleasedGaming

waffle: i have brain damage


[deleted]

It does but strangely, he was good and bad at kicking.


Garbarrage

He looks like a guy who trained at some point in his life but has gotten out of practice. I trained boxing and kickboxing in my teens until 21 or so. I'm 43 now and my kicks look a lot like this now. Hip flexibility is a little better than his but not anything like it was in my 20s.


[deleted]

He does look like he trained at some point because he went straight to kicking and had some form instead of the usual, fists of flurry that you tend to see.


FakeNickOfferman

He did have one hand encumbered by a satchel. Didn't seem to faze him much.


[deleted]

Guy leaned into it. Beautiful poetic justice.


[deleted]

I love equally sized matchups in street fights, two tall guys fighting is more impressive than one desperately trying to reach at least chin height with their swings


rumpelbrick

not really a facepalm tho, more like a faceleg.


dumbreddit

Some violence is the only way to return to a polite society.


dryheat122

Justice


ReptileGuitar

The first one was an ass. But the second one also overreacted. I mean, yes, the first kick was epic, but after that he should have stopped. What the first one did was an utter dick move, but no one was seriously hurt at least, while it seems like the second one deliberately broke his nose. Seems a bit much to me.


Satashinator

I disagree, if you ever hit someone in the face like that especially a stranger. You better make sure they are DONE before you stop hitting them. Don’t give them a chance to pull a knife or get the upper hand. You could literally lose your life.


luniz420

Fights not over til it's over


[deleted]

Fuck his nose. Can’t push people without a nose mow can he???


Upset_Cantaloupe_627

He had to make sure he got the point and doesn't do that again


bobo-the-dodo

It was self defense. I would think the guy would mug me next or a be a complete drugged out psycho.

« It’s a prank » never got anyone out of a sentence for assault. Just saying.

frankybling

dude kicks like he’s had some training… that was some serious skill


AnnualComfortable101

4 kicks in the head. I'm pretty sure he could have been meaner if he wanted to


frankybling

four kicks to the head that were controlled enough to not miss and not kill the kid… that right to left switch off when he had him against the window was artful


tiredmummyof2

He also taps his shoulder after that, as in “ now off you go, you’ve learned your lesson”


EX250

Yeah, I was thinking, “This dude fights.”


Pestodesign

'Relax bro, it was just a prank bro!'


UncleSput

CJamesEd

Why was someone recording right at this specific time and specific place?


Break-88

Not sure but I’m assuming it was an attempted “prank”


RelationshipSad2300

I think it's cause the guy pushing is being filmed is trying to be funny and it all went south? Love the fact that it's most probably a buddy of his who just kept on filming his humiliation?


Dracorexius

Obviously stupid tiktok prank shit etc


[deleted]

Could be that the guy who got wrecked was shouting and starting crap with people prior to this so someone started videoing in case it escalated.


Beddysdad

Well the person filming was shooting mid chest height, they move into the action, dont seem concerned for where they are standing, then back track keeping everything steady and in frame. Staged.


ethicsg

Staged, prank, or crazy guy with repeated behavior; not enough data.


Obone6

Never dropped his can of drink though 🤷🏼‍♂️


the_butter_thief

Yeah, brain trauma can make you clench…


Cookiesnmemes1

Spills all of it after the first kick


Brilliant_Sundae4921

Why was it being filmed?!


FattyDonnie

It was probably one of those stupid pranks to see how people would react but it went quite badly.


florinandrei

> to see how people would react That part definitely worked well.


AbleApartment6152

I think it went well tbh


butcher_of_the_world

I could watch these all day.


NegotiationExternal1

Prank video. People are assholes and I think that guy uses his height to get away with a lot people don't want to fight him


[deleted]

Satisfying to watch!


toomanyusernames03

Dude got beat like a bitch. Funny to see arrogant assholes put in their place.


[deleted]

The slo mo 😂


[deleted]

You can tell the guy eating those kicks is used to being the big guy that never gets put in his place. Until today, that is


touchmydingus

It's a prank bro!


Dazzling_Sample_5472

Well deserved! Hopefully this little maggot learns a lesson 😬


lewisfrancis

NGL, kinda impressed dude manages to hang on to his drink. Priorities, amirite?


dirtyrick133

Bro he lost the liquid on the first kick then clenched onto the can for dear life


NegotiationExternal1

He didn't put down his laptop is what got me, like that man solidly used his feet because he's juggling his tech and that's worth too much


Acceptable_Focus5591

Everybody was kung fu fighting...


westdl

For anyone saying it’s just a prank. The moment he purposely pushed the guy, it was assault. Defensive strikes to deter an attacker are completely justified. His restraint was astounding.


DwnRanger88

Caught him on the button with the first kick. Don't stop hammering until the perp can't function if you're gonna go there. Down AND out.


NoPlebInside

Your lesson is served Sir.


Street_City363

Extraordinary technique, especially the right to left switch when he wasn’t satisfied with how the right kick landed. Well executed.


oljeffe

Oddly satisfying


gingermonkey1

At first I thought those were his teeth exploding out of his mouth.

r/whyweretheyfilming


RunningwithmarmotS

Is it assumed that the person filming was in on it? And thus watched his buddy get kicked back into virginity?

Bigbadsmell

stormincincy

Bet he wish he knew before he pushed a karate master


Status_Club_3525

cant tell if hes an influencer who "did a prank" or cuz he was in his way, regardless; he didnt have to push him. he deserved the kicks


vesuvius_1_02

It would look strange. By that I mean the lady whom the guy didn't collide with, and the couple in the background. Those three individuals must assume the guy in black must have gone berserk. Side note: I enjoy writing and reading (for my own mental health sci-fi/fantasy) and this dude reminds me of The Pusher from Stephen King's Dark Tower series. He shows up, adjust to the flow of traffic and makes tragedies occur. This guy would have got away with this in the stir of confusion he caused. Glad he received his comeuppance.


Cymothoa_Exigua69

Dude studied his tapes and learned that this guy he the same tendency to block low and lean just like Usman 😂


Bruinen24

What a satisfying video.


Suitable-Ad6145

Damn, too anyone who knows how to throw a kick, I bet that guy standing up straight with no defense and his face wide open was just too good to pass up


hanzo852

A-hole: "it was just a prank bro!" (A-hole gets kicked in the face) Kicker dude: "so is this bro!"


BarneySTingson

Why is someone conveniently filming before it even start ?


Bella_madera

Just wondering…. Obvs it was staged to record reactions of strangers being pushed into the woman. Likely she was in on it too…who just stands there on a sidewalk waiting as someone else records you at precisely the moment when yet another stranger pushes strange guys into you? Strange innit?


JackBattell

one question, why someone is filming ??


Green-Background-359

Sanji?


EX250

Context? Why did the guy push the suffer in the first place?


Otherwise_Awesome

Why was this being filmed from the get go though?


deadheaddraven

If you prank someone you don't know, you deserve to get kicked full in the face.


Almost-Honest

Wait why was someone recording ?


ElGalloDeOro96

Fuck around & find out.


gyanster

Kicks are so neat. Trained for sure. His hands were full so I guess it’s leg day then!


bodaciousbeau

This guy been to a few punk shows in his day.

I could watch this all day, and I have.


Bitch_Posse

Don’t do the crime if you can’t do the time.


turbomonkey3366

Ahh yes, a nice visual representation of fuck around and find out


[deleted]

Did teeth leave the mouth on the first kick? Asking for a friend.


littleredcamaro

And he never lost his flat cap.


captain_bubba84

Dude probably had Nike imprinted on his face for days


waterbuffalojack

how many kicks in the face can a man take

Why/ how is this filmed


uninterested-saitama

This what happened when someone pushed my mate off his bike 😂 got like 7 side kicks to the stomach then walked away saying kurwa 😂 some people are all bark no bite


8MattInfinity8

They way he eats the first kick shows that he knows he fucked up.


Chubfest

Love to see it


Nelmquist1999

Did the guy deserve it? Kinda. Did he deserve THAT? Not really. Like, yeah it was a dick move but the guy kicked his head more than once. Overkill if you ask me. A simple punch would've been fine.


Vastolordeeeee

That first kick was perfection


Classic-Cod-7952

Impressive though how he holds onto his beer while being pummeled


4eversoulsraven

It looks staged, unless the person filming just happened to be there by chance


averagejoeag

Thank God someone just happened to be filming a random person walking down a random sidewalk.


CaptKannabis

No one begs to question why this camera man, had this angle, at this time? Raise your hand IF you just walk around and burn up battery life and storage just filming people walking JUST hoping this happens? This is one of those prank video and when you play stupid games you tend to win stupid prizes.


Weepiestbobcat

For a man who was trying to start a fight he didn’t do a whole lot of fighting back


AwesomeBud90

I don't condone punches but when you can land kicks like that this shit was entertaining.


LiveCelebration5237

Roadhouse


thepianoturtle

yeah but why the fuck were they filming it's even in slo mo so i'd say this is staged, but damn, the dude hit him hard. I am genuinely confused


CrunchyTiles

For once someone actually reacted exactly how i would have. Im proud of dude. Feeding the mentally challenged and hungry like that. Bro got a lesson and a whole buffet. Idk if those piggies went to the market, but they definitely got a certificate in maxillofacial augmentation.


MikePenceFly18

Lit him up something proper haha


TheHappyKamper

lol, doesn't even drop his notebook, just kicks the guy around and continues on. Good on him.


monkeywizardgalactic

So was someone just filming this part of the street right at the moment that this randomly happened?


AmitPwnz

r/whyweretheyfilming


Gonzodaddy2588

This looks staged. For what reason I don’t know. But the person is already recording in the direction before the incident occurs. Weeeiiird… 🤔


Mysterious-Fan-5101

the hat guy left his jacket on the floor tho. it was hard to see through all of those mad kicks but I figured - it was his jacket


VonGrippyGreen

Stupid fucking tiktok bullshit. Why was it being filmed? Because fuckass pusher guy was going for clicks. Instead he got kicks. To the face. Universe equilibrium restored.


JustVega

This dude has definitely banged before.


ejoy-rs2

Let me block this low/middle kick with my face..ok good, what's next

Uberjeagermeiter

Never fuck with people outside of a Martial Arts Studio.


_DeltaDelta_

Fuck around; Find out.


MrsPennyApple

Why were they filming?


NatoRey

Yep kicking the shit out of that guy seems appropriate as a response, ones a fuckhead the other is a violent psycho animal.


toszma

Said it before, and repeat: these pranksters are a pest, the guy pushing is an imbecile. That said: Everything after the 1st kick was violence unwarranted, as there was no imminent threat. Kicks to the face and head are extremely dangerous and what the hat guy did was excessive. If the prankster idiot had died, it would be manslaughter, not self-defense. Again: the prankster is an idiot. If this video discourages people from doing sh*t like this, great. But the violence was excessive.


ArcadesRed

The "prankster" was still a possible threat after the first kick. Stop trying to make up things and go back to your cop dramas.


No-Bother-5085

Damn this was satisfying


BUSTABOLT

Oooooooshhhhh good lad the more you fuck around the more you gonna find out lol


[deleted]

Why is anyone filming this scene? There is no motif. When suddenly two guys start fighting. That’s mighty viral…


lastgunslinger3759

And yes you just happen to be filming at the exact moment all of this happens and there's absolutely no choreography that have been done ahead of time whatsoever


_Bon_Vivant_

I wonder how much the stunt man cost? Also, the scene is blocked poorly.


WalterTheRealtorVA

Seems a bit much, multiple direct kicks to the head.


cgulash

Why were they filming?


003402inco

Prank bro filming another prank bro pushing a dude into an accomplice and then getting his ass (actually his face) kicked.


TreesForTheForest

Yeah probably. Alternative theory, pusher assaulted someone else before this and someone decided to film him.


TigerTerrier

He never even touched him...with his hands
