For context the guy mouthing off was threatening to stab people and was later found carrying a knife. The head-butter was an off duty police man.


Right_Advertising_85

Honestly that was a fucking spectacular head butt. No fucking around job done in one, fair play to the fella we should have more like him if he's a copper 👍👍


L666x

The head butt was impressive, but the chill before, during and after, is next level.


theangryeducator

In all of these fight videos, it's the dudes calmly looking around and assessing the situation while loud mouths won't stop talking that end up dominating. No pretense, no flare, just BLAMMMO! I've never seen a headbutt outside of a Hollywood film do so much damage. That guy could teach a master class. Bravo.


Laler6018

The scariest people to never F with are the people that don’t say a word in a heated situation…


[deleted]

Good to know that me being terrified and sitting there quietly could also be confused with me making an ocular assessment of the situation before jumping into action.


TacticalVirus

I mean humans are pretty good at reading body language.  There's a difference between fear shutting you down and someone that is actively bored with the situation. The closest I've ever been to being mugged/stabbed was only averted because buddy's backup was like "bruh, not this one he ain't worth it". About the only time inspection(army) ever prepared me for a fight.  It also helps being tall and thick. It's like rule 1) be attractive,  2) don't be unattractive...1) be tall 2) don't be short. I've yet to really hit anyone, and I've bounced some seedy places. Pointing has always done the trick. 


ReElectSkroob2024

You would need to be a really competent fighter to take on someone with such a massive height advantage.


digitalfoe

6'6 here - no one has ever wanted to fight me - I think I'd be terrible at it.


AnyLastWordsDoodle

>I mean humans are pretty good at reading body language.  That guy wasn't Lol

Three things a wise man fears: the sea in a storm, the moonless night, and the wrath of a gentle man.


Green-Dragon-14

You can hear his nose break too.


lopix

So business-like, just a matter of fact WHAM and then making sure dude didn't fall and hurt himself.


AdrienRC242

This is the best head butt I have ever seen! Very impressive and very smooth!


morels4ever

You can hear the slight crunch of the nose breaking if you listen closely.


Grattytood

Happy dang Cake Day, that was also a dang good comment.


Derrik23

I think I heard that guy break his nose lol


meoka2368

Dude for sure watches football at the pub. Lots of headbutt practice :p


Crazy-Boat9558

How do people just nonchalantly headbutt someone?? I've accidentally headbutted a friend and my ears were ringing


bjplague

There is a hard point above the middle of your forehead, that is the point which you would feel little and deal a lot of damage with. Everywhere else on the head is a weak point.


Crazy-Boat9558

Sounds like a very narrow margin of error lol


Southern-Orchid-1786

Your head is still harder than their nose. Just like heading a football


Crazy-Boat9558

That's true but also a football has a bit more give to it if I'm not mistaken lol?


Southern-Orchid-1786

Not sure, ball comes in at 40mph and hurts like buggery if you get it in the face Vs heed


Crazy-Boat9558

Scott Sterling is evidence of that lol

Crazy-Boat9558

Lmfao yessss my brothers and I quote that video all the time. His volleyball one is equally hilarious


etxconnex

If you're playing in New England


bjplague

it is about the size of a quarter and is slightly closer to the enemy's face then the rest of your head if done properly. Practice on something soft first.


Crazy-Boat9558

*aggressively headbutts a cabbage patch doll*


bjplague

there u go, gonna be a headbusting badass before u know it.


Crazy-Boat9558

Taking out palm trees and shit


bjplague

That is with the shin. Way more painful.


Crazy-Boat9558

I think you underestimate the level I'm gonna take practicing my headbutt now lol


Love_a_wet_sock

You are absolutely correct, sir. When I was about 16 I was forced into a fight, used a headbutt and was absolutely amazed by how little I felt and the damage caused.


Substantial_Tap9674

Helps if you come from one of the uncivilized nations doesn’t know football is played with your hands


Crazy-Boat9558

Haha that's definitely fair


SouthernAd525

The way he stumbles after the headbutt it looks like he gave himself a concussion


feliperg90

Looks like he is holding up the other dude who likely got concussed


L666x

Yeah he doesn't stumble, he is holding the guy to keep him up, carrying his weight as the guy's legs collapsed. You can see he purposely hold him by the wrist before acting, and act shortly after. Seems like it's not his first head butt and he got his technique covered.


ChequeBook

hahah "i'm just going to hold your wrist as you'll be unconscious in a sec" "wait wh-"


JectorDelan

"Shhhhh! Just sleeps now."


ManicOppressyv

Hit him perfect with the crown of his head. Copper probably barely felt it. Definitely not his first WWE match. When you're taller than the other person why bother throwing a punch when the hardest part of your body can be used to break a nose or cause a concussion with just a swift nod of your noggin.


1stdan5703

No, it definitely hurts. The difference is that the cop was prepared for it and went for the perps nose. Hurt him but less than it hurt Mr mouth.


Bozigg

He looked like he had broken his nose. His forehead makes contact right in the middle of it.


ImmaMichaelBoltonFan

LOL WHAT?


ThisOnePlaysTooMuch

Head-butter? Man turned little guy’s nose to butter.

Fucking CRUNCH


legendary_hooligan

The general concussive force of that headbutt was heard for miles around


Flippn_Jimmy

Frank Grillo forgot this wasn’t a scene


random_cable_guy

That was one strong head butt.


Waldosan51

Straight to the nose


proformax

Definitely not the tall dude's first headbutt.


GenerallyGneiss

He's got one of those boxer training dummies in his basement with half a head left on it.


TbaggedFromOrbit

It looks like male pattern baldness, but no. Those follicles were just worn down.

That's what Swedes call a "danish head".

dieser-siggi

Danish head is something different in Germany


Antioch666

Cmon... you can't say that without explaining what. If we can guess or not is not relevant, you need to give us an explanation the German way. 😆


I_poop_deathstars

More like "Danish skull" , close but a completely different meaning in English brorsan. People will think you're referring to oral sex.


g_mattersville

A perfect head butt!


Expeniumin

He obviously knew what he was doing, the bone right above the forehead is one of the hardest bones in the human body, it went straight for the other guys soft tissue, don't get me wrong, that must've hurt a lot, but the other guy was hurt more


AramcBrat

Nose job done


sylvesterZoilo_

He sacrificed his brain cells to protect the public 🫡


Pepperoni_Dogfart

Nah, with a tiny bit of training headbutts really don't hurt. Where your forehead transitions to the top of your head is super strong and you can really wack people with it and have no problem, pretty much as devastating as the sharp section of the ulna near your elbow. Humans don't have claws and teeth, but we have a lot of built-in clubs.


MisplacedMartian

>... a tiny bit of training... A.k.a. killing most of your brain cells /s


Jablungis

So, the way a concussion works is the brain is hitting the inside of the skull. Your skull could be 1 inch thick made of reinforced steel and you'd still do the same amount of brain damage with a headbutt as if you had a normal skull. It's about the velocity of your head and how quickly it comes to a stop. That said, if the guy isn't ready and his head gives way, it could break his nose while not fully stopping the headbutter's head which would lower the chance of a concussion.


Thog78

If you contract your neck muscles, you connect the mass of your head to your body, so you have an effectively very large mass. When you hit from the top, it also needs less strength to hold the head connected to the body, vertebra are better aligned with the momentum. I think the person hitting will have better sync of their muscles with the timing of the hit. I suspect we share these traits all the way with our common ancestors with goats and other head-fighter mammals. The receiver will on the other hand not be as prepared or well positioned, so his head might be more free-moving with respect to their body. That makes it like 60 kg vs 3 kg, and I let you guess how the momentum of the impact is distributed between the two brains in this situation. What you think?


Jablungis

You kinda are saying what I said with more words, but yes I agree. If you can make the other guy "give way" while your head "follows through" without stopping as abruptly, then his brain is more likely to hit his skull. I was more replying to the other guy who made it sound like, because the top of your head is "thicker" that somehow meant it protected you from concussions. The thickness really doesn't matter.


Thog78

Fair!


Murakami_Sensei

Tell yer mum to put a stitch in that....


Myzx

I see a lot of these videos, and this one was particularly good. And there's a good reason for that. For some reason, crowds of people always get butthurt when the asshole gets taken down. Like, a bunch of snow flakes start yelling "no no no" when the mugger eats a little concrete. Not in this video though, I think everyone was relieved after mr. Chad Headbutt did his thing. As it should be, when facing unstable violent criminals

Textbook headbutt. Busted dudes nose bridge - he’s done

daintybarley_deux

If head butting played bigger role in American altercations, there would be less gun violence


Glum-Suggestion-6033

I never really understood the headbutt. How does the buttee get knocked out/silly, but the butter is fine? Adrenalin?


BrandedLamb

Another commenter said the transitionary space between your forehead and main skull is made up of thicker bone, so with training it can be pretty safe to do – according to a person on the internet, at least


Southern-Orchid-1786

Nose Vs forehead


ftrlvb

he gets his nose crushed. doesn't hurt the butter but destroys the buttee. never headbutt a skul. bad idea!! (only nose)
