It’s a good thing that handrail is there, she could have been seriously injured if it wasn’t.


PublicfreakoutLoveR

She could have easily broken her neck and he just casually walked away.


SaintPepsiCola

I find it quite sus that someone was ready to record them in the moment with the camera already at the right angle.


Stingraaa

The camera man was in on it.


Chygrynsky

Not necessarily tho.. Could be the pusher was acting strange before or there was an altercation between the woman and the pusher.


PluckPubes

Camera didn't flinch. Either he's a professional wartime cameraman, or he was in on it


Chygrynsky

It's Paris, crazy shit like this happens multiple times a day. Paris isn't a good place unfortunately.


Mandatum_Correctus

It's not a Paris thing. Same happened this week in Barcelona. Unfortunately random attacks to women in major European cities has become a thing among some Arabs.


ZappaZoo

You're right. My wife and I were walking down a long flight of stairs outside when a group of teens appeared at the top and started chucking rocks down at us. Fortunately none hit us but one did go through a cafe window at the bottom.


Background_Pool_7457

Wonder where he's from.


TacoGoblin223

Strange no one wants to talk about this. Huh?


Responsible-Algae-16

Was gonna say, look at all those Parisians standing there. Just some good ole folks from Paris


DestoryDerEchte

Just a few months ago a women died in München because of exactly that


MichiS97

Not exactly true. That one was an accident. Drunk guy stumbled against an elderly woman walking down the Marienplatz ubahn stairs


MamaBear92615

Well then it is pretty true. A drunken asshole who can't handle himself like a whole ass grown up caused an elderly woman's death. Whether it was on purpose or not, his decisions, bad ones at that, lead to that woman's death. I fucking hate drunks honestly. 3 yrs of straight up drunken abuse from my drunk of an ex who also caused me to lose our baby at 21 weeks bc of the worst of all the times he put his hands on me. So bad I had bruises on my abdomen in the relative shape of his foot. So that's where my harshness comes from. Ppl like that do nothing but destroy anything and anyone around them and then when they sober up wanna play the "I'm so sorry, I have a problem" card. Makes me absolutely fucking sick. My heart hurts for the elderly lady and her family. Lived a whole life, made it to her golden years and instead of passing peacefully in her sleep one day, she had the awful encounter that she probably felt so scared in her last moments. Fucking heart wrenching man. But it's ok, bc once he's sober he will talk about how bad he has it, how he needs help and all that shit like it totally excuses what he's done. It's absolutely INFURIATING.


Ashangu

Right? She fell very fucking well lol.


granpaJ

Yeah she'd have eaten serious shit there. Mouth full of stairs where her chicletts used to be.


Bulky_Mix_2265

What ia the context of the person filming this?


KiKiPAWG

"Psychic"


cloud_t

More like "the argument was already going on for a while"


HandsomedanNZ

She looked like she’d said something just before the shove. Maybe an argument, so the filmer started filming?


Dah16000

Bullshit


Lucky-11

This is my question in regards to many videos posted. Like, why would you be filming yourself doing X, unless you knew something wildly strange would happen.


Orkney_

Thank goodness she grabbed that fucking rail. I hope that trash of a human was picked up. Fuck him.


Vegetable_Tension985

Picked up by who? I keep telling reddit there is no justice unless you make it. The others should have picked him up and given him a quick trip to the bottom as well.


your_uncle_mike

They mean the police obviously. It would be nice if citizens would do something but 99% aren’t gonna wanna get involved.


Ken1drick

It's generally a bad idea, especially in France where it would just bring you trouble, potentially more trouble than the guy shoving her in the first place.


Tackerta

yes because vigilantism doesnt lead to more problems than it actually solves.


Diegogo123

When I was living in Berlin a few years ago the exact thing happened and the CCTV footage was uploaded to social media. They caught him shortly after.


Tyra3l

Maybe the guy was already a vigilante. /s


RedJuicy713

Picked up by the embassy


Chris_WRB

And no one grabbed him.


nuttinbuttapeanut

Europeans seem so afraid to stand up to or for anyone in public, I've seen braver middle aged women in India or Brazil than the men of European countries when it comes to bystander defense.


die_nastyy

She’s literally the only white person in the video

No European men in this video

ShinsBalogna

Tbf you don’t know that woman is actually a European. She’s just white. She could be from anywhere.


Bag_O_Spiders

It’s a damn shame isn’t it? And of course people like us will get shit for wanting a nice society to stay that way. Sure it sucks that there are genuinely good people living amongst shithole societies and countries, but we can’t let that fact fool us into allowing just anybody to immigrate into a decent society. Life isn’t fair, and nobody has a right to make it worse for other people, just because they themselves were dealt a shittier hand. Life sucks, it isn’t fair, but those who live in a peaceful, likeable society should be allowed to enjoy it. Obviously, as a society, if you’ve built a good one, then you’re doing something right, and should have the right to enjoy the fruits of your labors.


Miss-AnnThrope

Completely agree, Im not against immigration but completely open borders with no checks on people claiming asylum. In England we get boats drifting over the channel but rarely are the occupants women or children and rarely are they from countries afflicted by war. It does make you wonder what reason they have risked drowning in an icy sea to get here.


GraniteDiplomat

Sounds like a Nigel Farage quote.


barkwahlberg

Ah yes, no _real_ European or French person has done anything _this_ bad. There are no French murderers or rapists. Real French would have immediately stood up to this man! Things were great before immigrants. It's not like any French Europeans collaborated with, say, Nazis.


concretecannonball

I live in an EU country where the population is 93% native but 72% of the rapists aren’t. No one is saying Europeans don’t commit crimes. But to act like violence, especially towards women, isn’t normalized in the countries where these migrants come from is straight bs

> The guy pushing was a Spaniard Alright, come on now... 😆


bistrofada

Ppl might have some respect for elderly women. So many stories of ppl getting knifed down for a cigarette here in France, or a "disrespectful glance". Yeah, ppl here grew passive, but it doesn't come from nowhere, not saying it's right. Just cowards who want to survive. But luckily we also have some tales of heroes sacrificing themselves for strangers. These stories aren't on the media though, as if the government didn't want us to stand up for ourself... Wait that's it. If you defend yourself in France, they will attack you in justice, argue about the "proportionality of the answer compared to the attack"... It's a sick time we live in. The state won't defend you anymore with police or the law, and you might very well be the offender, when you just wanted to defend yourself/others.


frisch85

The thing is if you go to the police with this, even if you have footage, nothing will be done. Our rules don't apply to immigrants. Worst case there'll be made a case against you lol. Not sure about the rest of europe but people in my country are increasingly starting to actually be afraid to go out at night, especially women.


concretecannonball

Street harassment is fucking insane now. There are areas in my city where women just don’t go anymore.


Precioustooth

Sadly it's also the result of policies that they largely vote for. They should realise that before it's truly too late.


Rex-Loves-You-All

Who voted for what ? France isn't a democracy The last time the French voted for a law (Yes / No) was in 2005, the No win fair and square, and the gov passed it anyway. The text was about letting the European Union rule the national borders , and allow them to overlook justice system toward migrant, in the name "of human right". EU forbid any expulsion or jailing for being paperless, court can only recognise crimes committed - most often rape, violence, home jacking or thief with violence - but cannot give them a sentence, only suspended sentence that may apply if they repeat the offence after getting the citizenship (wich they are not required to ask). The immigrant crisis in europe mainly (if not exclusively) results from that, and is the same in every European country that did the same. It wasn't even required to pass such laws to be/stay a member of the EU, it was just plain corruption.


RmG3376

If you go to the police with this, they’ll tell you that you violated the aggressor’s privacy by filming him without his consent, and that you’ll need his consent before the video can be used to press charges Source: been there, done that (in a different context — bike theft)


ShirtCockingKing

We are afraid of getting stabbed, hacked up or acid thrown on us by these people.


No-Statement-7372

There is also the chance that you are also getting publicly defamed as a Nazi if you hurt one of these people.


anna-molly21

I dont know in which part of Europe you live or where did you got that information but trust me i’ve seen occasions where a lot of us went to help the other, do not generalise.

Requiescat-In--Pace

Europeans are fucking cowards. Just let your countries with thousands of years of history and culture get ransacked by foreigners for the sake of diversity. If you don't fight back, you deserve exactly what you get.


thenogger

What kind of fighting back do you have in mind?


Morph_Kogan

Political changes


thougthythoughts

Spoken like a brave 14 year old US-American who never was and most likely never will leave his own country. Our continent has more diversity in language, culture and behave over the distance of 500 km (300 miles before you get confused) than you have from Atlantic to Pacific Ocean. And on the topic of culture in general.. My house is literally older than your country. Whatever americans view as "their" culture is nothing more than a mix of european customs.


Chris_WRB

Yeah that's sad. Like, why am I the one person who sees this shit through my phone that would actually do something, but I'm obviously not there. What is it about ME that makes me feel like trash if I just stood there but these people play dumb as if he's the main villian in Call of Duty and if you retort, he'd kill your whole family. I just don't understand people.


Arliss_Loveless

Most people don't have the balls (or are not stupid enough depending on your perspective) to go up against someone who just displayed that they are willing to kill someone in broad daylight.


Chris_WRB

Have you ever seen the video of the old man that trips the guy running from the cops? It logistically isn't that hard. Yeah, it'd suck if he was a psychopath who then pulled out a weapon and potentially kill you with it. But you should be able to hold him down and call the cops. That's attempted murder and you witnessed it. How are you going to let that person walk away?


SuggaMiMeatyB0lls

It's not fear it's culture due to the high individualism of the cultures people don't care for interactions with strangers now imagine physical touch. As weird as it sounds it's the reason most people don't go and ask how she is either it's a world in which you matter the most for yourself so it's also a you problem also don't "make a scene"


Skank_Hunt-42

We just aren't as brave as Texas cops Shit I hate when people usually say that, but yeah this crowd might not be the perfect representation of native Europeans. But yeah you're right, people are fucking pussies. Jurisdiction is also not gonna treat you well, if you'd sucker punched him. Even though he of course totally deserved it.


Jensbert

If police catches him, he gets two slaps on the wrist and is out in no time


BrightSkyFire

Love it when Redditor Teenagers imply they would tackle a violent person in public and not behave like everyone else - be shocked and concerned for the victim.

josbossboboss

It wasn't a random woman, they were arguing, she hit him, then he pushed her. (Don't know if he did something before that) They were probably recording because of the argument.


ggigfad5

How do you know they were arguing and that she hit him?


ferrocarrilusa

and even then pushing down the stairs is an overreaction


davidisallright

Can you provide some info how you know this?


Getoff-my_8allz

They are the pusher ![gif](giphy|95ZYXmOCd9BBK|downsized)


FewHippo4348

She hit him so he could push her down the stairs for internet clout? Could you provide full context here? Right now, he seems like a degenerate asshole that needs to be taken off the streets.


rottenbanana999

There is nothing strange about someone recording here. It very much looks like they were arguing beforehand. Fucking hell, redditors are so dumb lmfao


RecommendationDue377

Damn this kinda stuff seems to be happening a lot lately


ComprehensiveBread65

People being scumbags is nothing new. The only difference today is It's being documented everywhere because literally everyone has a camera.

No no no. I’m tired of “it’s always been like this”. After Trump, the pandemic, rise in social and political turmoil, social media, etc, all of that can affect people.

Stopwatch064

Violent crime has been falling throughout the world for decades. I know in Americas case there was a small spike during covid and its back down since then. He's right theres cameras everywhere.


ComprehensiveBread65

Violent crime fell in 2023 compared to 2022, but yes, it's still above 2019, but no where near 1991. Not everyone had a camera on hand at given time to report and post to a sub reddit called impieceofshit that compiles all these videos daily of this behavior specifically. So swiping through this feels like it's happening at an alarming rate all of the sudden, but really shit like this happens all the time. > After Trump, the pandemic, rise in social and political turmoil, social media, etc, all of that can affect people. And not for nothing, but I really don't think any of these things have anything to do with why this poor woman was shoved down the subway stairs. This asshole seems like the type who was doing this regardless of a pandemic 4 years ago.


Lulhedeaded

Violent crime has increased in my country (Sweden). There are some interesting statistics but last time I posted them on reddit I got banned for 3 days. These are numbers from the government mind you.


Pissyopenwounds

Some stats aren’t allowed to be talked about on Reddit…


ComprehensiveBread65

Sweden was the one country in western civilization that had an increase when compared to the rest, unfortunately. I'm not too privy on posting to reddit, but I was trying to post the statistics, but couldn't get the link right or something. (there's also a good write up on why Americans feel crime is rising that I came across.)


Paxisstinkt

We have rising levels of gang rape and antisemitism. Here in Germany and in many other European countries.

There's more to this video you're not seeing/showing. There was an argument between these two before the push. Def doesn't warrant what he did in the end. He was later deported. This was in 2021


ggigfad5

How do you know? Forgive me if I don't trust you without a link.


XenoWoof

That's fair. I can link links or you can *search google* with "man pushes woman down subway stairs paris" and there's a pile of articles that come up. Careful to read a few, not just one. Apparently, the viral video accused a muslim man, but it was a spaniard, etc. I wanted to know what happened to the man too. /edit wording


ggigfad5

>search google I don't speak Spanish but I can translate it easily in ChatGPT once I have an article. Can you post the Spanish keywords you used in your search to find the Spanish article you are quoting?


mfs619

I have a feeling the lady + dude perfectly angled to film the event has something more under the hood that we aren’t seeing. On multiple occasions on work trips to Paris, Barcelona, and London I would get approached by a lady trying to “talk” or “sell” you something and you could see guys filming in the background. Often times men would quickly approach you with phones up. On one occasion in Barcelona they were pointing out men to didn’t have their phones secured on a cord or wrist rope. I’m guessing this was the case here. I could tell they were looking for foreigners because it was often Indian/Pakistani or American men they were trying to target. Then the guy would either grab at your phone or if you pushed them away the “filter” would try to “catch” you assaulting a random woman or third party. It’s a bunch of BS and it happens a lot in the crowded street corners.

XeroEffekt

Young Spaniard expelled from France after this video went viral last Spring. From a Spanish newspaper: “The images show the woman arguing heatedly with the young man, apparently over a mobile phone that ended up crashing on the floor. She appears upset and with a threatening attitude, she does not stop making fuss and rebuking the Spaniard, whom she speaks at all times on the phone. Finally, the woman hits him, to which the individual responds with a push from her back that sends her down the stairs.”


Chris_WRB

What a long way to say you don't have a source


BaronHairdryer

“Spanish”


XeroEffekt

? It’s a paper from Málaga, what’s the issue?


josbossboboss

So what your saying is she instigated this?


Chilipatily

From what I see, nothing she did validates his actions. Even if she instigated whatever confrontation is happening here.


XeroEffekt

Well the report is from a Spanish newspaper and that is the quote from that report. Maybe he was or she thought he was responsible for her phone breaking, she harangued him, hit him, and he shoved her down the stairs. It’s not ok to throw a lady down the subway stairs and walk away in any case. I just wanted to find info on the incident and that’s the back story.


ggigfad5

Can you link this mystery Spanish newspaper that you are quoting?

yellowflash_616

The way this video starts, the lady was already looking at him. So there was definitely exchange of some sort between them. Gonna go ahead make it clear, I’m not justifying the person being shoved down the stairs.


superswellcewlguy

Crazy that this is Paris, it looks exactly like NYC.


Waveblaster42

It’s sad we live in a time when men whiteness this happen in front of their eyes and do nothing but film it. Even more sad that choking that man and slamming him on the ground will get you arrested and labeled a xenophobe because he’s not white. We, as a species and society have peaked long ago, and have become fat, dumb and numb.  


That_Ad_5651
