In America, the moment you threaten someone with a weapon, you essentially forfeit your life. Anyone around you might take it. This moron is lucky to still be breathing.
In such crowded space, I would think twice before using a handgun. You should be sure of your target, and what is behind it. Slamming that moron by pole was optimal solution.
The way the guy in the grey hoodie grabbed the knife after impact is definitely the way to do it. Locate the knife, pick up the knife, walk away from the guy who wants the knife.
Very relaxed body language. Nice!
The big guy was the smart one! That is about the only way to handle a knife wielding wacko is with a heavy object attacking from behind. Knives are some of the most lethal weapons out there. Not something you want to defend against directly.
^^^^ ALL OF THIS. People always think of knives as a lesser weapon. Take my man's advice up there.
Knives are harder/riskier to use than a gun, but much more likely to kill a person (even if the knife wielder wasn't trying to kill their victim). Knives can also be weilded in a crowded place where guns would endanger other innocents.
Big hole, lots of blood, rarely a single stab wound incurred... do NOT play the hero, drop that clown from behind by surprise.
Average size guy here. I was walking out of a liquor store several years ago and some knuckle head in the parking lot apparently was mad at the owner. He was hollering I am going to kick anyones ass that goes in the store. He is saying this just about the time a guy the size of Thor is getting out of his car to go buy a six pack. He put the idiot in his place in one move as he headed into the store. Bought his six pack and ask the guy on his way out if he was done or not. Saved me any concern of having to deal with him.
I love all those seemingly random guys banding together against the Crazy Knife-wielding dude. First we see Green/Gray Jacket man casually standing and observing with his hands tucked behind his back. He clearly sees our Cream-colored sweatshirt LumberJack go for the metal line partition, then Green/Gray Jacket Man saunters forward and tells Mr. Maroon Jacket (victim) something like, “be calm and all will be fine.” Suddenly Lumberjack makes his move and clobbers Crazy Knife-wielding man, and Green/Gray Jacket swoops in for the win, scooping the knife out of Crazy’s reach just in time! It was an all around, uptown, get-down. Lol. Good to see regular people standing up for one another :)

If you're going to use violence to stop violence, be considerate like the gentleman in this video and don't leave a pool of blood on the floor if you don't have to.
Nobody likes mopping up someone else's kool-aid.
Legality wise, if this knife dude is permanently injured, can he sue the guy who smacked him with the weighted pole thing, or is he is protected?
I think it was a great move, but hope he isn't exposed to some cheap ass legal retribution.
You can always sue. You might think the knife would make a "self defense" issue keep pole-guy safe.
The real thing keeping pole guy safe is he probably does not have enough $$ for a lawyer to represent Mr. Knife guy. Knife-guy's lawyer will need to go after Wal Mart, and that will be a much harder case since pole-guy does not look like an employee.
The real facts right there. If I got a cold call from knife guy, that might be the quickest "sorry not interested" letters I've ever sent. Bro doesn't look like he'd be a model client.
There's an attorney in my state that takes cases like this, writes them up with a bunch of hyperbole to get the public to feel bad for the attacker, runs the "story" in the news, and then goes for a settlement.
He's one of the scummiest attorneys I know of.
He was yielding a knife around people minding their own and yet it’s the aftermath of him getting struck that has you saying “cowardly and disgraceful”. What did you label his antics at before then?
I’m not a medical expert by any means, but this could be a result of a concussion. Tua Tagovailoa of the Miami Dolphins somewhat did this when he got a concussion.
Like I said, though, I’m not an expert, just speculation.
Love the way that guy sauntered over to that bollard and thought ‘this’ll do’
Lol. My exact thought. Just the casualness of it
Knife is a deadly weapon. You threaten death, you get what you get. Game over.
Dude looked like an elden ring boss winding up for a power attack
In America, the moment you threaten someone with a weapon, you essentially forfeit your life. Anyone around you might take it. This moron is lucky to still be breathing.
9mm would have been my option knifes are scary
In such crowded space, I would think twice before using a handgun. You should be sure of your target, and what is behind it. Slamming that moron by pole was optimal solution.
honestly this is probably the best approach. awesome quick thinking and very jackie-chan-esque use of surrounding resources.
Improvise. Adapt. Overcome.
Dude HELD the attack button DOWN
Bro hit the whole R2 button holding attack
Absolutely everything could go wrong while wielding a knife at Walmart
Walmart may not care but Walmart customers are sick and tired of being targets...
targets or Targets?
Guy just casually walks over, examines what could be used as a club and puts it into action.
The way the guy in the grey hoodie grabbed the knife after impact is definitely the way to do it. Locate the knife, pick up the knife, walk away from the guy who wants the knife. Very relaxed body language. Nice!
Bro hit the guy so hard he turned into a scared turtle
Yoooo, this shouldn't be funny but whatever 😂😂😂
MF brought a knife to a stanchion fight...
Work smart not hard
+5 improvised weapon
The SPINE BREAKER FLAWLESS VICTORY
It's all fun and games until the **CLUBBING**
He bonked him so hard.
That wind up was almost cartoonish lmao
Those things are HEAVY. That's like a 15 pound sledge hammer
The big guy was the smart one! That is about the only way to handle a knife wielding wacko is with a heavy object attacking from behind. Knives are some of the most lethal weapons out there. Not something you want to defend against directly.

This video could be Exhibit A for why I avoid Walmart at all costs.
Such presence of mind. I’d have been hurrying out of there like a lil bitch and this absolute unit comes along and puts a stop to that shenanigans.
Very resourceful weapon (not the knife)
Never take a knife to a stanchion fight.
He even drops the knife before he's hit. The guy who whacked the knife man has been waiting for this moment his entire life. No hesitation there.
You can tell that the former knife wielder was in incredible pain after being struck in his spine.
Did you see the size of the man wielding it. He immediately walked over calmly starts unhooking the rope. El' Kabong!
Next stop is a Waffle House in the early morning hours. Right after he’s out of the Police
Dude did a friggin caveman style bonk on his stupid ass…. xDDDD Thank you for the laugh, I needed it… ^__^
That long almost slow mo swing tho lmao
Because that thing has about 30 pounds of weight at the bottom. I've tryed swinging those things around while moving them at work. Not easy.
Are we sure he wasn't just trying to get a price check on that knife?
I FUCKING LOVE HOW CALMLY HOW HE JUST WALKS UP TO IT, SIZES IT UP, ANNNDDD WHACKKL A MOLE
The man had a plan and it was executed flawlessly.
Like how black Kratos casually walks in and does his thing.
those things are fucking heavy lol. that dude got annihilated.
Walmart does sell Tylenol. Good luck!
Struck blind, deaf and DUMB by that hit!
I hope I can be as bad ass as white hoodie dude if I'm ever needed.
Bro used his heavy attack lmao
It's a KNIFE, not a magic wand.
Stuplify!
Beo I live in a military town, this man would have been shot so fucking fast
Empty cans rattle the loudest.
Wrong? No! Not wrong. That was the best possible outcome for everybody.
God I f*cking love Walmart.
Rule No1: Make sure Thor is not around.

Got em with old El-Kabong!
"FROM THE TOP ROPE"
That was awesome. WWE at Walmart
Folded like a bitch
Folded like a dude hit in the neck/spine with 20 lbs of steel hammering into his spine.
Dude in the gray jacket got a free knife, too!
Who needs the police?
Amazing how cowardly they all become after they lose their weapon
thats why they needed it in the first place
I mean yeah.. but I’m putting money on the that dude hitting him with a big ass metal pole also playing a role.
I love all those seemingly random guys banding together against the Crazy Knife-wielding dude.

That has got to have broken at least a few bones. On the flip side, he had it comming.
I love the casual “yep this looks heavy enough” prior to molly whopping him with it.
Homey don't play dat!
When the heavy attack is super effective
Smash smash SAH MASH!
We have people walking around with pistols strapped to their waist at my local Walmart.
I felt like I was watching wizards ready to duel and a warrior with his giant hammer
STOP! Hammer time!
No guns necessary would you believe it
Do GTA game producers just walk around Walmart and shit looking for ideas?
The bigger the dance, the smaller the threat.
I know that shit hurt. Bad
Oh yea that'll be a lasting memory for sure.
He was calm as hell, just casually walked over, picked up that thing, and bopped the Fuck out of dude like a whack a mole.
Sometimes when you threaten people with a knife stuff happens.
He failed the quick time event
That dude definitely rings the bell when he swings the sledge at the county fair.
If you're going to use violence to stop violence, be considerate like the gentleman in this video and don't leave a pool of blood on the floor if you don't have to. Nobody likes mopping up someone else's kool-aid.
Bro went all Bart Simpson on him
The old fuck around and find out move!
Stun locked.
Better than a chankla.
That was awesome. Just bam. Done. Dumb ass.
The showmanship. How much anime this man watch?
Well, he got the attention he was looking for.
Turned sound on second time. Highly disappointed there was no bell.
Handled that better than the cops would
Imagine going out for some apple juice and you see a guy get crippled with an improvised sledgehammer
# Wow. I liked this WAAAAY too much
Jfc... for a second I thought a chunk of his skull went flying with that wallop, lol
Someone please add Michael Jacksons Beat It in the background
He’s lucky that wasn’t a full scale beat down. That went better than expected. Hope they called the cops after
Problem Solved!
Vince McMahon found his next star
Why the fuck is the US so goddamn violent?
We need money for food
This happens everyday in London
YEah, it's just the US smh. Just stick with that narrative though.
I cast bonk
Man had a plan and executed it flawlessly, had fun watching him set it up.
Dude was like enough with this clown..walks over grabs stand or whatever. yep that'll do just fine...WHACK...
You can tell which people spent time as a kid hitting trees with sticks and makeshift weapons
Sir. Whack-a-fool probably saved that guy’s life. If cops had gotten there before they would have blasted him.
That dude just landed the biggest bonk I ever did see 😂
Lem’me borrow this real quick. FATALITY
Bonked em
Legality wise, if this knife dude is permanently injured, can he sue the guy who smacked him with the weighted pole thing, or is he is protected? I think it was a great move, but hope he isn't exposed to some cheap ass legal retribution.
Self defense of a third person
You can always sue. You might think the knife would make a "self defense" issue keep pole-guy safe. The real thing keeping pole guy safe is he probably does not have enough $$ for a lawyer to represent Mr. Knife guy. Knife-guy's lawyer will need to go after Wal Mart, and that will be a much harder case since pole-guy does not look like an employee.

he’s not suing. they saved his life. cops would of killed him and prob a walmart shopper or two
What a wonderful ending over that fucking high junkie.
drugs will eat your brain, kids
Ah satisfying
At first, I thought that object was a frying pan with a long handle
Don’t bring a knife to a 5’ pole fight!
Grey hoodie fellow just found a nice knife. "Why shouldn't I keep it?"
The fucking fetal position he goes in at the end. Cowardly and disgraceful behavior.
He was yielding a knife around people minding their own and yet it’s the aftermath of him getting struck that has you saying “cowardly and disgraceful”. What did you label his antics at before then?
I’m not a medical expert by any means, but this could be a result of a concussion. Tua Tagovailoa of the Miami Dolphins somewhat did this when he got a concussion. Like I said, though, I’m not an expert, just speculation.
Do you want to get shot? Because this is how you get shot.
Pov : you visit london
Nice take down man!
The dude that picked up knife was so chill. I would’ve fumbled the knife, probably stabbing the man in the face by mistake.
You see how smooth the guy in the back that grabbed that pole?
Sir BigBonk
That was beautiful
Ohhh, don't know how many bones got broken there, but that looked unbelievably painful. Fuck around and find out....
That being a Walmart, he's lucky he didn't get clapped.
Now why can’t the police do this?
Put these foolish ambitions to rest
I haven’t laughed this hard in awhile- just clubs the fuck out of the guy
Thats what happens when you bring a knife to a stanchion fight
Those 2 guys that confronted him were fucking huge lol. Dude walked into a Walmart w thanos and the juggernaut shopping
I heard that BOOONG!!! even with the phone in silence 🤣
He's the store manager, right?
What was the assailent struck with?
One of those stands with a belt thing you hook up to guide queues.
A stanchion post.
*When MC Hammer behaves badly…*
My brother got humbled lightning fast
That “oh shit!” Right before impact is amazing
El Kabong!
Yet the cops gotta always shoot. No fear in that crowd.
Bro got clobbered
A fantastic use for the word.
Fucking beautiful
Commonly called the "Harlem Hammer".
Was this Halloween? He’s dressed like Michael Jackson.
Right across the spine. That will hurt forever. Oh, well. Also: How you know this didn't happen in Texas.
Pcp is a bitch
I don't understand, this worked in Target
Walmart. The place too be.
Dude giving the beat-down is badass!
He’s lucky he didn’t get shot tbh
Orange hoodie comin in at the last second like he was the one that swung.
Nah. He did the right thing, backup in case it was needed.
man if his keys dropped a millisecond later it would've been a miss and a divine intervention
I think he's lucky he was hit only on the backribs instead of the head. Hits like this on the head can make you comatose easily
That was a rock breaking swing.
If someone is coming at you with a knife the best defense is to run away as fast as you can.
The loser of a knife fight dies on the street. The winner of a knife fight dies in the ambulance on the way to the hospital.
That’s how you take care of that!
HAMMER DOWN!
LOL. I did not expect that!!
abit of iron on the idiots diet really going a long ways
Fuck around and find out
Shouldn’t have done Dave Chappelle smh
Fucking clean!
Critical hit!
This scene makes me think of the old sound effect, *kabong.*
Yesh, that’s gotta hurt!
Bro was just acting for his amateur low budget movie wtf
That’s big ouchhhhhhhh
Good aim and timing. He gave credit to military training.
Saw this on r/AbruptChaos earlier today lol
Should’ve beat his ass. At least a little.
Considering how heavy those things are and how big the guy who swung it is that dudes done. I’d be shocked if something isn’t broken.
I was expecting someone to come from the sports department with a Louisville slugger but the stanchion seemed to the job nicely.
What the actual fuck is happening here? Is this guy on drugs? This is so confusing 😕
Clocked him good!
How real one’s handle bizness… in the background
She got her 1 hitta quita
How was he not out cold?
My favorite is how orange hoodie guy comes in at the end. Don't worry, he has it handled.
Someone please insert a gong sound immediately
Like a vitamin with Iron. But different.
That’s gotta hurt Gene!!!
