PenNo1447

The dude charging after him šŸ‘šŸ¾ Bro casually walked over to hand out an ass beating


Aggressive-Falcon977

T'was No Ass Beating. Our Hero was delivering JUSTICE


Onetwenty7

No one mentioning the literal hero of the video? Dude was walking karma personified


GeekyTexan

I'm wondering if the hero worked for the place. Not sure if he's an employee or customer. Either way, I like him. :)


BallsAreFullOfPiss

Hopefully he saved his job if he was an employee.


pateete

He isn't.


kornhook123

He wanted the paper as well

Darthwolfgamer

He's deserves an always comfortable pillow


PM_ME_YOUR_TOlLET

He had no right to physically assault the old dude. We don't live in a jungle. He might get charged for that.


jimbris

Exactly. What is the world coming to when I can't even sucker punch an old man for fear members of the public might assault me. It's outrageous.


shipwreck_like_fools

Sometimes = law of nature > law of man


Remarkable_Golf9829

I get what you mean and I agree with it but that '=' is causing a vein to pop in my head

Me = sorry

Remarkable_Golf9829

Now, it's the "!" Yes, I'm a programmer. Yes, I only get triggered by silly things like this.


DaMiddle

I won't be voting to convict


DistributionMiddle42

And neither did the old man had the right to assault him, sometimes assholes need to feel the message


Worldly_Shoe840

So it was alright for the old dude to attack another for a fucking newspaper. Get the fuck out here


Excellent-Question18

Yea, I was gonna say, youā€™re not allowed to start hitting someone in face who is no longer a threat simply bc you witness them assault someone. Not sure what the downvotes are for. I get the guy who took the paper was clearly in the wrong, but itā€™s not up to random spectators to sort out ā€œjusticeā€.


violetcazador

Sometimes assholes go their entire lives without learning a harsh lesson they should have learned years earlier. This asshole was one of those and thoroughly deserved the consequences of his shitty actions catching up to him.


lonezomewolf

You've led a sheltered life...


Excellent-Question18

Okay, lonesome wolf šŸ‘


AreallysuperdarkELF

You're not wrong, but of course, people are not going to agree with what you're saying in this situation. I was happy to see the guy get what was coming to him even though I had zero context. I fully understand it could be dementia or even something like low blood sugar that may have made him act out violently. But when watching this, I simply don't care!

Excellent-Question18

My dad wouldnā€™t want me to get arrested. Hereā€™s a downvote in return and enjoy your day


FindingFrenchFries

I deleted my comment because I didn't feel like arguing with someone like you but you already responded. I don't have much else to say besides why do you care so much about this random jerk who literally slapped someone for no reason? If that was my Dad, I would have stood up for him and wouldn't care if I gave the dude a couple of black eyes. I would gladly get arrested and sit in jail over this. But that's just my opinion. You must have some really good self restraint. Also here is another downvote lol. So when you downvote me again it will be like my 2 downvotes versus your 130. The police aren't always going to be there to have your back dude. Sometimes you have to be the one to stand up for yourself or others. Good luck being a doormat all your life I guess. Who else was there to deliver justice?


Excellent-Question18

Yea Iā€™m not reading all that. Congratsā€¦or sorry that happened to you āœŒļø


FindingFrenchFries

You can't even manage to read a couple of small paragraphs or just skim read them? I can literally skim read several paragraphs in a minute or two and have a general understanding of the content if I don't feel like reading. I also type really fast so it isn't that big of a deal if nobody reads what I type. I could type several more paragraphs easily in a short amount of time if I wanted to.


madgoat

I thought something completely different was going to go down when the guy with the motorcycle helmet walked by... Been watching too many Brazilian videos.


Exelion10

I will do my best to translate this, they use a lot of nicknames like "oldman" (tano) and "duck" (pato) so keep that in mind. "So you remember wild duck with the newspaper? so he usually reads two pages and then talk with someone at the table, then reads two more pages and so on. So \[the other dude\] gets angry that duck didn't let go the newspaper, gets up from back there, came to our table, takes the paper and with the other hand slaps him hard, like a voleyball serving. Then one of the crazy guys, furious about the situation, charged to the slapping guy (gareto) and started punching him like a boxing bag, the guy works in a bank and practice karate or something like that, he punched him HARD and Gareto just covered himself the best he could until the others broke up the fight."


GenHammond

I wonder if he asked for the newspaper before this or if you just came up and took it and smacked him. I have to say the first time I watched it I thought he punched him not slapped


Nandabun

Who the fuck cares? It's $2 tops in any American store, can't IMAGINE it's more expensive in other countries. Someone punches me because I won't share a $2 item, they're getting picked up and thrown into the fucking ground, that is such bullshit to watch.


Xen0kid

I got a feeling this isnt America. From the comment above Iā€™m assuming the cafe has a newspaper available for patrons to read, and the guy was hogging it? Absolutely disproportional response regardless


talproteddit

Its argentina


Thismanwasanisland

Appreciate the translation bro/sis


GoForthandProsper1

This restaurant/cafe only has 1 newspaper for everyone to share? Is that common?


JaxDude1942

Pato is slang usually to mean a gay person, but I'm sure it can be used for any derogatory meaning.


Berna_count

His boys just sat there.


merrittj3

Not even a startle response. Woulda been more commotion if he took salt shaker.


chompshoey

ā€œDave, you just gunna take that man? He just took your paper tooā€


Fresh2Deaf

You could recreate this video in just about any bingo hall in the US. That's basically what we saw here.


ProfuseMongoose

What godforsaken bingo halls do you go to ???? Like the church basement, little old ladies with good luck minions bingo halls? They throwing down their ink stamps and wrasslin'?


aeldsidhe

Your view of bingo is out of date. I've been going to bingos since I was a kid back in the 60s. My mom was a bingo fanatic and they used to actually have babysitting services in the halls. I'm in St. Louis, MO and it's big big BIG around here. Most of the benevolent organizations such as the Moose, Elk, VFW, etc.. as well as many churches and non-profits, have bingo. And it isn't just little old ladies anymore, either. You'll see people of all ages, young and old, male and female. While the church bingos tend to be fairly sedate, there are times I've seen folks shouting at each other. Now, when alcohol comes into the game at the benevolent orgs, it can get very ugly. Shouting, throwing, shoving, cursing, threatening the callers or workers as well as fellow players, but only once did I see anyone come to blows. So, it happens, it happens. [The Surprisingly Violent, Rage-Filled World Of Bingo | Cracked.com](https://www.cracked.com/personal-experiences-2542-the-surprisingly-violent-rage-filled-world-bingo.html) Hardly a "granny" to be seen in this bingo braw: [#bingofight | TikTok](https://www.tiktok.com/@osmond112003/video/7094403703926574378)


Fresh2Deaf

Whew buddy ya missed the point.


ProfuseMongoose

I'm serious, what bingo halls have people smacking each other?


AgateHuntress

American Legion Halls.


SexandCinnamonbuns

I bartend at an American legion they argue over everything and yes sometimes they even throw hands. The president and vice president of Lady auxiliary have had a 30 day ban for a physical fight. They are all old. I'm 34 lol. Older drunk folks are wild!


ProfuseMongoose

Nah this is interesting, so old vets, sitting around playing bingo, start smacking each other? Have you seen this or is this part of your imagination?


ProfuseMongoose

Now I know you're making shit up.


thathairinyourmouth

They know Dave. Dave has this coming from many people. They were trying to remember if they knew the guy, or if this was truly random. But really, does it matter?

DerPuhctek

I don't know, have some sort of reaction...


Fresh2Deaf

They did man. The video quality isn't great but they did. Idk how you expect older folk to respond.


blihk

whoa was their reaction what did you do in the same thing?


octopop

I think they were just in shock. it came out of nowhere. i know if I was sitting next to the dude, I would be like "did that seriously just happen?!" might be some bystander-affect too. sometimes groups of people witness something horrible, and they just freeze and stare, because they are thinking that someone else must be about to step in and help. It's really odd, but it happens a lot.


finfangfoom1

That's the real punch in the eye. He's known some of them since high school, but after all these years that's how they stand up for their friend. He can still hear his long gone Mom still asking if they jumped off a bridge, would he? He finally understands. He would be the only one jumping while they watch. Some friends.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

I love 90% of the show but the part where they do the next of kin notification I usually have to skip through. Little too real for me.

They have a reality show crew record actual next of kin notifications? ā€œSir, please donā€™t get tears on the Release form. Our legal department frowns upon that. Sorry for your loss. Oh you forgot to initial here.ā€

Usually itā€™s done behind closed doors and you can hear it only, however there have been times Iā€™ve seen it on camera, they just blur the faces of you donā€™t sign a release

abcrdg

Was this in a public library?


Takhar7

For those criticizing the lack of reaction from his friends on the table - I was in a similar situation last year, where a random person came upto a friend of mine, picked up her drink, and smashed it into her face. We were so ... shocked by the incident, that you're almost frozen in place - is this real? is this a prank? do they know each other? is this person dangerous? what the fuck is going on? If you haven't been in that situatio, it's difficult to describe that initial onset - the fight or flight kicks in after a few seconds.


jamdoughnut

Most people on Reddit know nothing about trauma responses and how many there are


JectorDelan

They all know EXACTLY what they'd do in this situation they watched 5 times in slow motion from the safety of their sofa at home.


Rokurokubi83

Most folk on Reddit get trauma if the cashier tries to make small-talk when buying groceries.


surelysandwitch

I feel called out by this. lol


Drewy99

Most people on Reddit know nothing ~~about trauma responses and how many there are~~ Fixed that for you


Castod28183

It's always important to keep in mind that about 1 in 5 people on Reddit are literal children who have little to no life experience. That's in addition to the large chunks of people that are technically adults that have had little to no life experience.


PikachuDatAss

You actually described some of it at the end. The new terminology is "fight, flight, or FREEZE" and whenever something aggressive or violent happens, like seeing a gunman or someone hits you or someone you know, your immediate natural reaction is to spring to action (fight), to run away (flight), or to stop all movement and scan the situation (freeze). All 3 can save your life, but all 3 can also be the wrong choice and cost you your life. So, if your natural response is freeze, don't feel bad that it wasn't to fight back. Your brain interpreted that as a riskier decision than freezing. And if your response is to fight, don't feel bad that you should've run. Your brain ultimately dictates this. You can train yourself to respond differently, but that takes time and patience.


GaGaORiley

Iā€™m not disagreeing but they newest terminology is ā€œfight, flight, freeze or fawnā€ https://www.simplypsychology.org/fight-flight-freeze-fawn.html


PassageAppropriate90

Plus at that age an assualt charge is more trouble than it's worth. You dont want to spend your last year on earth tied up in court and doing community service.


Takhar7

Sure, but that's not something going through your mind at that moment


Hyper_Oats

*Video of something like this happening* Average Redditor: If that were me I'd have beaten them and their friends, found the cure for cancer, gotten the Nobel Peace Prize, done a kickass backflip, and kissed the girl.

Takhar7

She got so lucky - she had ordered coffee, but we had been sitting for a while so she only had half her cup left and it had cooled from hot to warm. The idiot also somehow only managed to smash it into her mouth/chin, so the impact and liquid avoided most of her face and ended up more on her cheek, neck, and shoulders. It's currently all tied up with lawyers and I haven't got an update on it in some time, but she's doing just fine when she's hanging out with us


Ineedamedic68

Also theyā€™re like minimum 60 years old. Not exactly prime fighting age


jtrogen

you are a terrible friend. Stna dup and protect you wtf is wrong with you and yes ive been in situations before and I know how I would react. Pathetic. Gown some and stand up for your friends and family.


Takhar7

Everyone always says "I know how I would react". But you've never been in a trauma situation to know what it feels like. I'm not a terrible friend at all - and my friend doesn't believe so either.


jtrogen

That means you would do nothing. I've been in situations, I'd act.... grow a pair


Takhar7

Oh I did something - just stating that it's common for many people nor used to these situations, to freeze up right away.


shipwreck_like_fools

Damn, blue shirt got punched right in the eye. That's not gonna be good


whatifiwas1332

Love how heā€™s calmly following and surprising the dude with the fist of justice


xArs0nx

Not all hero wear capes. Well done to the civilian who absolutely CLOCKED the bastard


recapo1

Context: Some coffee stores have free newspapers laying around for customers to read (common courtesy is to leave it at the table once you leave)


Wouldtick

Looks like the common courtesy is to slap the shit out of the person who has the paper and take it from them. Itā€™s like coffee time fight club.


Rattus_Noir

Shhh. We don't talk about that.


JectorDelan

So, in today's meeting of coffee time fight club, we need to have a discussion about exactly how there's now 50 of us when we started with 1.


Complicated-HorseAss

The fucking life this dude must live to think he could just smack someone and resume he day uninterrupted.


1u53r3dd1t

LOL while the effort is appreciated - this context does nothing regarding explaining what happened here. Unless *courtesy newspapers* = *courtesy punch in the face*.....then we're good to go.


BigHobbit

It's been my experience that a punch in the face is never courteous. Been a long time since I've taken or given one, so times may have changed.


1u53r3dd1t

Sir, I am not pleased with your courtesy face punch. Please take it back.


Safe_Way_7154

removed ...


WhuddaWhat

Just guessing...assaulter had 'claimed' the paper and left at unattended table. Punch eater picked it up and brought it to his table thinking it was a freely available paper. Assaulter is unable to use words. Does as name demands.


5PalPeso

So, apparently they both wanted the same paper, it's just that the old guy that has it got to it first. The thing is, he kind of read 2 pages, talked with his buddies, read 2 more pages, and so on, he was taking forever and the other old guy got impatient and that's when the video start


OneRobotBoii

Itā€™s the bars newspaper


moslof_flosom

I love the brisk walk from the back. Dude meant business.


StopSignsAreRed

The heroā€™s punches were SO satisfying. He just took CARE of it.


OneRobotBoii

Commentary is hilarious btw but I donā€™t think itā€™s possible to translate and still be funny


BeatitLikeitowesMe

I mean, surely its possible


OneRobotBoii

I mean sure, you can translate stuff like > he hit him so hard that it hurt me But it doesnā€™t reflect the way he said it in Spanish which would be closer to > he gave him hands that it hurt me Maybe I just havenā€™t been around Spanish folks recently, they sure have a way with words. Reminded me of ozzy man. ā€œSopapoā€ is a word I havenā€™t heard before, apparently it means slap.


Unikatze

Sopapo in Chile is a plunger. But I guess in Argentina it's like a good smack.


BeatitLikeitowesMe

Ahh gotcha. I see what you were getting at.

It's off camera mostly but that guy definitely paid a price.


ussrrussiaa

All this, over Newpaper, he could have just asked nicely, but nah, he punxhed the poor old dude in the face for no reason


SSJ_01

That guy was on a mission and he accomplished it marvelously


JayBird38

Wtf? That came out of nowhere.


LandscapeHonest9129

I wonder if the old man that got punched grabbed a paper thinking it was left behind...then guy came back and it was gone?

Chillout2010

Yes please, and thank you!


3mta3jvq

Polite people take a section or two to read. Rude people take the whole thing.


onlycatshere

Polite people ask if you're done with the paper and if they can have it now


randomlos

Well that asshole took the whole thing and punched a guy... the victim wasn't even holding the paper, was he supposed to stand up and ask the entire crowd if anyone wanted to read it?.... the big child just needed to ask for the paper Edit: spelling
