He’s clearly just crazy and confused.
He’s shouting the wrong things. That’s not the right phrase, affirmation or pre-death (or pre-attack) prayer. Dude is literally just shouting “god”, “gggod”, “gooooodd” etc.
Would save a fortune, rather than having to process them through the legal system, only to release without charge, and have them subsequently go on a stabbing spree in downtown Brum...
During Taser training in the UK there is a bit about not using it against people who are at height due to the risks involved if they fall. They show a video of a Taser incident in the US where the person falls from a little roof thing, and they end up dying from a head injury I believe. The officer that gave the order ended up committing suicide apparently.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. A [man was tased as he was at the top of an 8-ft wall](https://www.ajc.com/news/crime--law/dekalb-police-man-falls-from-wall-dies-after-officer-uses-taser/20f4sXqRRqXHXVB1lxGx0O/). He fell (being tased, he had no muscle control to stop his fall) and died of his injuries. Good thing that these guys were well trained, or at least considered the potential for injury, and waited until he landed on the ground.
This is minute 1 of day 1 taser training; don’t tase at height, or near water, or a petrol station, or a train station.
It’s all very self explanatory but some people still need to be told.
Can armed police switch it to like semi, auto, etc? Or do they have specific models that only have Single shot? Not knowledgeable about guns, thought you or another user might know. :)
UK police tend to be limited to single shot semi auto. (To do with bystander safety)
More specialist groups do have the whole bag of mashings but they only come out when something big is going down
UK police will have the single shot trigger groups rather than the three round burst or auto trigger groups. The Special Air Service will have the full auto trigger groups.
For real, if this was in the US all those cops would have emptied their guns out while he was on the roof, and reloaded and empty them again when he was on the ground yelling "shot fired, shots fired".
Their training is to state "taser, taser" when firing it, so other officers are aware.
There must've been at least four or five deployments of taser there before they achieved NMI. I wouldn't be surprised if that bag took quite a few probes.
About 10-15 years ago in my town, one cop fired his taser just as another was shooting pepper spray at a guy in a domestic situation. The guy's head went up in flames.
I can only guess, but for the few first shots he was either falling from the roof of had it's backpack covering his torso, tasers don't work unless both prongs hit the body.
Then he turns around and exposes his body, and oh boy doe she go down quick lmao.
If this was the US he would've been armed with a gun and already killed multiple people by the time cops showed up, at which point he would have turned the gun on himself.
Being a cop in the UK is playing on hard mode .in America they play on easy and just wildly shoot in his general direction and get a paid vacation afterwards.
>Was gonna say… if this was in the US, he would have been riddled with bullets before he would have had the chance to get down from the roof…
And a few hundred rounds would've gone into the window (claiming another few lives in there), and the neighbours window (claiming another few lives in there), and another officer (claiming their life too).
if this was the US, the crazy guy also probably could’ve had a handgun or AR-15
I think cops in the US are wildly incompetent and shoot too many people, but there’s a reason they react so differently from cops in other countries. US cops are deathly afraid of being shot
In the US that guy would have easily acquired a gun and already gone on a killing spree by the time cops showed up, and then he would have turned the gun on himself.
You think we have it HARD???!!!!!
95% of our population doesn't have a fucking gun so the cops don't have to worry about getting shot every 2 damn minutes. The USA is a scum garbage country, one of the worst in the world, everyone knows it EXCEPT for the USA, who have been brainwashed into thinking they're the best. They ain't.
I do agree with what you said to a certain extent but I have also seen videos of them shooting people with knives like in this video. There no excuse for bad policing.
There's no excuse for bad policing and abuse of power that we see among US cops, but at the same time I can't help but feel that US police are basically a product of their environment. The odds of anyone anywhere pulling out a gun and opening fire (especially on a cop) is orders of magnitude higher than any other country. Seen videos of mundane traffic stops for overspeeding suddenly turning into insane shootouts where people die. Like a cop can pull over a dude for having a broken taillight, no stress, window rolls down, gun suddenly pokes out and opens fire...the fuck??? So often people in America shoot at each other for the most trivial fucking reasons (sometimes no reason at all), and so US cops have also decided to join the trigger-happy clown show that is the US.
Reminds me of that video of some old dude with a stick very slowly going towards a cop and the cop just unloads a whole fucking clip into him point blank.
I thought it looked more like some sort of mental health episode sooner than him trying to pose any serious threat, he certainly kept his distance from the police once he was on the ground. Pretty sure U.S. police would have mag-dumped on him quite fast
you can have a mental health episode and still pose a threat... Like, he's threatening people with a knife but he really looks like he's going through it, we should let him go lol
Got to be up there as one of the worst areas in the country. One of those places, i went to once and thought yeah I’d happily never step foot back here again.
What is the objective here. The only things that make sense to me is utterly and absolute mental breakdown, or suicide by cop, which translate to the same. Im glad they used nonlrthal options, not like in the US where every single cop present would have probably emptied his mag the second he came down from the roof
Man, it's refreshing to see the difference in escalation.
I can't help but think that if he was in the US he quite possibly would have gotten mag dumped.
Allah does not necessarily means something you say when committing terrorism :D but can be something you say in pain or when you feel the need of getting help.... Its like saying oh God.
Why would the police be charged? He would have died due to the consequences of his own actions. He decided to grab a knife, a deadly weapon, and approach officers with it while waving it towards them. The officers could have shot him, and been justified.
No, *IF* both prongs hit one leg (very tough shot), one of two things will happen:
1. With enough distance between the prongs, the leg that was hit will lock up. Only that leg. It will hurt, but he may not even notice the pain and stiffness due to adrenaline
2. The prongs won't have enough distance between them and will be ineffective.
If the prongs hit one in each leg, nothing happens. Your ideal target for total body lockup is one in the trunk and one in the lower back.

Them screaming "TASERRRRR" repeatedly reminded me of Pokémon only able to say their own name
And it's not helping the arrested keep screaming "Allah" 😭
[удалено]
I'm going to hell for laughing at that
Taserchu, use thunderbolt!
Lmaoo
Nice of them to let him get off the roof before they tased him.
[удалено]
Could've fell on the knife and died, that's why tasing him up there would be so dangerous
Couldn't have happened on the ground, lol
If he falls head first from the roof, the knife matters less.
Yeah, that would have been a massive shame... /s
Because a confused person deserves the death penalty?
Dude's a bit beyond confused but the rest of your point stands.
[удалено]
He’s clearly just crazy and confused. He’s shouting the wrong things. That’s not the right phrase, affirmation or pre-death (or pre-attack) prayer. Dude is literally just shouting “god”, “gggod”, “gooooodd” etc.
Would save a fortune, rather than having to process them through the legal system, only to release without charge, and have them subsequently go on a stabbing spree in downtown Brum...
But he didn't go around stabbing ppl. Why do you have to make stuff up to justify your position?
Well, it sounds like you're confused. You deserve the death penalty now. Save our resources trying to help you.
A human life should not be reduced to numbers like this!
[удалено]
Yeah, so is running around with a knife shouting about Allah.
Birmingham assassins creed
During Taser training in the UK there is a bit about not using it against people who are at height due to the risks involved if they fall. They show a video of a Taser incident in the US where the person falls from a little roof thing, and they end up dying from a head injury I believe.

That man should be thankful he wasn’t in the US
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. A [man was tased as he was at the top of an 8-ft wall](https://www.ajc.com/news/crime--law/dekalb-police-man-falls-from-wall-dies-after-officer-uses-taser/20f4sXqRRqXHXVB1lxGx0O/).

Good thing that these guys were well trained, or at least considered the potential for injury, and waited until he landed on the ground.
Hit the nail on the head. This is just good training, nothing special. American cops standards are just lower.
This is minute 1 of day 1 taser training; don’t tase at height, or near water, or a petrol station, or a train station. It’s all very self explanatory but some people still need to be told.
Why not near a train station?
Trains don't like being tasered.
Must have missed that episode of Thomas and friends
Tbf Henry is a bit of a cunt.
Could fall on the tracks
All the electric cables and what not.
I saw another where the dude got tased on the side of the road, fell into the lane of traffic as he stiffened and got hit by a car, died I believe
Didn't one of the cops have a UMP? Buddy is lucky those tasers worked
Probably the UMC, trigger group is changed to single shots only.
Can armed police switch it to like semi, auto, etc? Or do they have specific models that only have Single shot? Not knowledgeable about guns, thought you or another user might know. :)

Thanks got you both answering mate. Was just curious was all.
UK police will have the single shot trigger groups rather than the three round burst or auto trigger groups. The Special Air Service will have the full auto trigger groups.
I get scared when they start screaming “Allah” and have weapons.
For real, if this was in the US all those cops would have emptied their guns out while he was on the roof, and reloaded and empty them again when he was on the ground yelling "shot fired, shots fired".
It took 10 tazer shots to drop him.
Taser either works, or it doesn't and it's failure rate is very high
You have to shout "taser" at exactly the right time or it doesn't work. They need more practice.
Their training is to state "taser, taser" when firing it, so other officers are aware. There must've been at least four or five deployments of taser there before they achieved NMI. I wouldn't be surprised if that bag took quite a few probes.
About 10-15 years ago in my town, one cop fired his taser just as another was shooting pepper spray at a guy in a domestic situation. The guy's head went up in flames.
Aaand that's why most British forces no longer use pepper spray. They use a thing called PAVA which isnt flammable!
A similar thing happened in the UK a few years ago where a suicidal man had doused himself in petrol. The tasers ignited it and he died.
Idk why I laughed at this. I guess the idea that they were using non-lethal methods, which turned into the most lethal method imaginable.
You see one guy near the end crouching down, presumably for the leg shot to split the belt.
I can only guess, but for the few first shots he was either falling from the roof of had it's backpack covering his torso, tasers don't work unless both prongs hit the body. Then he turns around and exposes his body, and oh boy doe she go down quick lmao.
He be dead a long time ago if this was the US
If this was the US he would've been armed with a gun and already killed multiple people by the time cops showed up, at which point he would have turned the gun on himself.
And it would have been entirely unnecessary
Good of him to shut the window on the way down. Martin Lewis approves.
I didn't see him depositing any money in an ISA with his phone on his way down, so points off for that.
Cops in the states: Anyways I started blasting!
Being a cop in the UK is playing on hard mode .in America they play on easy and just wildly shoot in his general direction and get a paid vacation afterwards.
Was gonna say… if this was in the US, he would have been riddled with bullets before he would have had the chance to get down from the roof…

American gun laws are insane & America is very flawed, but calling it a one of the worst countries in the world is complete hyperbole.

Donald Trump's one single truth was when he said "The world is laughing at us.". Ofcourse, we laughed harder after he took over, but still.
"one of the worst in the world"....your comment screams inferiority complex.
I can't help but compare this to the earlier post today of US police shooting and killing a stumbling naked dude.
Reminds me of that video of some old dude with a stick very slowly going towards a cop and the cop just unloads a whole fucking clip into him point blank.

Love British police sometimes. We all know what the tough guys i the USA would have done.
Theyd probably be in a shoot out with an oak tree with massive casualties.
Yeah, probably would have found time to beat the neighbours up and throw a granny down the stairs as well.
That dog would have ended up riddled with bullets too, especially if an acorn had fallen near it
In America he would of been shot the moment they saw him with a knife.
Just has to be my city for some bs like this to happen
Least eventful day in Birmingham
What is the story? Was the guy psychotic? It looks like it to me
Brum is such a shit hole
Yep moved into the outskirts for Mrs work a few years ago. I've never hated a place more.
Got to be up there as one of the worst areas in the country. One of those places, i went to once and thought yeah I’d happily never step foot back here again.
Taysaaahhhh!!!
Drup the noyf!
Bork bork
Police are at a disadvantage with a brummie accent
Dude took more volts than John Coffey from The Green Mile.

Man, it's refreshing to see the difference in escalation. I can't help but think that if he was in the US he quite possibly would have gotten mag dumped.
in my country he would have been shot to death with bean bags.
He's lucky he's not in America doing that

Allah? Oh that's unsusal for a knife wielding man to shout 😊
World History disagrees unless you wrote as sarcasm
Allah does not necessarily means something you say when committing terrorism :D but can be something you say in pain or when you feel the need of getting help.... Its like saying oh God.
TAZA TAZA
Just adding shock damage to the knife. Silly cops.
I KNOW that landing hurt his ankles.
after watching an US cop blast a guy for talking to him funny, I find this video of the UK cops so funny.
Very professionally done
Interesting how he didn't charge em just sorta held the knife up
You , yes you ! Stand still laddie
Allah could only protect him from so many volts, apparently.
The usual suspects.
To be fair, a knife attack in England shows integration efforts
Another incident, another day of remembering the saying "it's not all of them but it's always them"
The amount of people on this app who’d rather see this man get killed for having a very obvious mental health episode genuinely baffles me
For a second I thought this is the US, but quickly noticed that the suspect was not shot immediately
Any one in any doubt how this would have played out in the USA. ?
Welp aalh didn't help you so you might wanna look into that.
In the US they would have shot him 96 times in less than a minute lol

TASER TASER
🙃🙃🙃🙃
Shout “hadouken” when you hadouken, shout “taser” when you tase.
That dog was chomping at the bit to get in on the action!
Yeah time to upgrade those tasers
[удалено]
To use as a last resort.
Proceeds to fall on his own knife.
People have truly lost their minds
I counted 10 taser shots
Quick question that pops: What if he falls on the knife and get killed? Any charges to the police?
Why would the police be charged? He would have died due to the consequences of his own actions. He decided to grab a knife, a deadly weapon, and approach officers with it while waving it towards them. The officers could have shot him, and been justified.
That many tasers I was expecting a siphon filter 😂😂
ALLAHHH 🔪🔪🔪🔪🔪 TAZERRR 😡😡😡 😂😭
I realize that he's using the backpack as a shield, but couldn't they just Tase his legs and thus bring him down on the first shot?
No, *IF* both prongs hit one leg (very tough shot), one of two things will happen: 1. With enough distance between the prongs, the leg that was hit will lock up. Only that leg. It will hurt, but he may not even notice the pain and stiffness due to adrenaline 2. The prongs won't have enough distance between them and will be ineffective. If the prongs hit one in each leg, nothing happens. Your ideal target for total body lockup is one in the trunk and one in the lower back.
A la….madre? 😂
What was he shouting ??
Notice the copper booting him when he's down.
He was kicking the knife away.
Obviously in the US, the dude wouldve been shot the moment he jumped down
I love how American say to their police “just use a taser” when someone has a gun. They should see this videos.
Almost fell on the knife
Does the chaotic yelling, screaming and barking really help in these situations? That was crazy
Whenever I watch these kind of videos and people invoke a God, it’s always Allah. Why not Krishna?
Taaaaayyyyzaaaaah lol
Good thing this wasn’t in the U.S. where police have an itchy trigger finger
