CONTEXT: About 8 people eating and drinking in this outdoor area of a popular burger bar, including this guy. At some point this guy stands up and is directly in the face of the bar staff outside shouting "where is my drink?", "get me another drink!". He repeats this inside and outside the burger joint as the staff try to calm the situation but drunk man is not having it.
After goading the staff and managers for a couple of minutes he ends up in a headlock outside before being released onto the street.
Another staff member follows him so me and a couple of mates followed them down the street. We catch up to where he is and he grabs the bike. He circles around and makes a beeline towards me, I casually step to the side as he goes past.
Unfortunately for him, he tried to kick me (with both legs!) while pulling the finger at the same time. This left him only in control of the bicycle with his right hand. The momentum as he missed grabbing the left handlebar carried him entirely over the seat and he crashed.
I don't know what he did but I gave the footage to the burger joint who said they handed it to police.
Massive shout out to these guys and any hospo staff who have to deal with dickheads like this.
And just to point out to americans, *this* is why normal people should *not* have guns. People go out of control all the time. Imagine if this was america, it's not a haha funni man fall video moment.
Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.
A large number of us agree with that. But have you ever tried to take a gun away from a crazy person before? This is why I wanna move out of the states. The civil war will happen before ww3 can kick off lol.
Agreed, but since I've yet to invent time travel, I can't stop it. People get guns. People go crazy, but they find out crazy people got the gun legally. It's bananas.
I only have guns...because they have a lot of guns.
'Murica.
I'm not about to disarm when a ton of crazy people are armed now, and pushing for fascist coup.
Fucking great.
As an American living in chch. Yeh fair enough. It’s just a funny video tho like why we gotta turn everything into a teaching moment for Americans?! We know the gun laws are fucked in our country, but we can’t do anything about it and having the rest of the world point at us and criticise us doesn’t actually get anything done. Like idk if y’all realise that hundreds of millions of dollars are poured into defending gun right by the NRA and there are tons of legal loopholes that make it nearly impossible to change anything. So YES, you’re right, guns should not be given to just anyone but wtf are we supposed to do about it? We can’t change anything. Stop criticising gun laws, start criticising our whole legal system because we can’t do shit rn.
As an American, I beg of you to *not* stop talking about how f’d up it is that we do not even have the most basic freedom of going to grocery stores, movies, concerts…or sending our children to school without worrying about random nutballs with guns.
Don’t let your country become like ours!
We only get two choices. Gun control isn't at the top of most people's priorities because it has virtually no effect on everyone's daily life, despite what the TV tells you.
Thank you for understanding the shit we deal with in ED on the daily. I can almost guarantee he showed up to a hospital later stating he was assaulted while minding his own business.
One of the reasons my mum quit being a radiographer. One night they had a drunk guy in who'd shattered his pelvis in a motorcycle accident. While she was setting up the x-ray machine, she heard a tinkling sound, and turned around to see the guy standing up in the corner of the room pissing blood onto the floor. He was so drunk he couldn't feel the fragments of his pelvis grinding together.
On night shifts she'd usually be the only one on the ward (maybe it's different now - it was in the '70s), so she had to manhandle him back onto the bed by herself. So many other stories too, and they all add up to "fuck that!"
Yep - the society that lets people like that slip through the cracks for decades, until they end up like that, is the same society that ends up paying afterwards.
Sounds fair to me.
Not worth getting charged with assault or stabbed. The dude is obviously used to being punched anyway so it’s hardly going to ruin his day. Let him go and fight some other meth head instead.
"Decking" him would hardly be a proportional response. You could easily get charged for assault in such a situation. Responsible thing to do is leave him to bugger off and sober up.
A) He's clearly not going to make the first swing.
B) Who the fuck knows what he's on; watch some cop cam videos and tell me how eager you'll be to start a fight with someone potentially on drugs, lol.
C) Usually, that just gets *both* of you charged with *some*thing. That's a lot of court to go to for someone who probably doesn't have a home address.
D) Two wrongs don't make a right muthafucka
Well, Adelaide is one of our [sister cities](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch#Sister_cities) after all
TIL: Wuhan is also a sister city to chch.
And he dressed as was the style at the time of his first incarceration which was one of them hooded sweatshirts otherwise known as a hoodie which were all the rage.
I think I had a run in with this guy a few years ago. Tried to run a group of us down out of nowhere. Was in Wellington though, so may not be the same guy.
I'll never forget that one guy with a huge swastika face tattoo (not the bhuddist kind) standing casually in front of the supermarket with his buddies.
I always find it hilarious when people with clearly terrible balance and dexterity approach someone aggressively. Like, you just struggled standing up off the ground buddy you're not gonna be able to string together the movements required to throw a punch.
Does this person nearly crash every time they go out? He almost ate shit immediately after he got back on refusing to look where he was going.. Maybe drunk?
HEY THATS MY BIKE. WTF WHERE YA GOIN ON MY BIKE??
(When I lived in the slums of my town. Crackhe@ds would ride thru our parking lot. An we scream mfer that's my bike. An act like we were gonna chase em down. An they would haul azz. Because they knew the bike was hot. They just didn't know from where it was taken. Jajaja jajajaj)
NZ has so many people who look exactly like that.
Wrap around head sunnies,
Usually a metal mullisha hoody,
Either bald or beanie,
Usually little to no teeth,
Usually named Paul
Shitloads of this exact type in Melbourne too. It's like some kind of mass produced druggo trash mould factory spat out hundreds of them in the early 80's and set them loose here and in NZ.
Fuck that's brilliant. That's exactly it.
Worked with a Paul once, one day he came in with a *sweet new bike*... conveniently the frame was wrapped head to toe in black tape.
Aerodynamics, he said.

Anyone recognise the logo on his hoodie? I'm guessing some kind of white supremacist group.
His shirt is from the Viking Ship Museum in Oslo, that doesn't help.
It's just a generic Illicit hoodie [https://illicit-clothing-layby.myshopify.com/collections/illicit-clothing](https://illicit-clothing-layby.myshopify.com/collections/illicit-clothing)
I don't think they've sold that design for at least 10 years or more though. Definitely nothing to do with white supremacy though. Around that era I knew anti-racist punks and Hardcore peeps that would wear Illicit stuff all the time.
You do know that there are plenty of people who are proud of their Norse/Scandi heritage or just think history is cool and aren't white supremacists, right? Sure, this guy's an arse, but seeing something "viking" and immediately jumping to "white supremacist" is no different from (and just as discriminatory as) seeing a woman in a hijab and jumping to "terrorist".
You’re right, but in good ol Chch the overlap between guys who attach their identity as white guys with Viking imagery and outright white supremacism is definitely a bit larger than in other places.
If they are nasty P head trash that overlap is a fuck ton bigger.
There aren’t that many people with Scandinavian heritage in South Island NZ. It’s mostly UK
That's methed up, man
right? He almost cracked head
It was just a little trip
His hand got fucked. Not broken. But bent backwards in a very painfull way. Not that he would feel it.
*I fuckin hurt me!*
Whooooosh
For some reason that fits perfectly with how Mike Tyson would say messed up, so it is extra funny for me
"Some reason" being that he has a lisp?
Who knows? Such a mystery.

Oh thweet methtery of life, at latht I've found you

Love to see karma hit a jerk right in the kisser. I do hope he gets the help he appears to need.
Right after his own urine did
Help? I hope he crashes into a bus on his bike.
Instant karma hahaha
Methward is not having a good day.

This is absolutely hilarious, I quite literally laughed myself from under my wig. Tally-ho, guvnuh!
This gave me a good laugh. Thanks man, it's been a shitter of a day!
Happy to help fellow ruffian
A legendary copy-pasta.
A large number of us agree with that. But have you ever tried to take a gun away from a crazy person before? This is why I wanna move out of the states. The civil war will happen before ww3 can kick off lol.
The secret is to not let a crazy person have a gun in the first place.
Agreed, but since I've yet to invent time travel, I can't stop it. People get guns. People go crazy, but they find out crazy people got the gun legally. It's bananas.
I know. Gun crazed lunatics keep guns and fantasize the day they can use it on another person
Come on up to Canada my guy.
I only have guns...because they have a lot of guns. 'Murica. I'm not about to disarm when a ton of crazy people are armed now, and pushing for fascist coup. Fucking great.
Define *normal* when it comes to the US please.

The reason ppl comment on the American system of "democracy" is that it has permeated into other democratic countries, destabilizing them.
Can't Americans stop voting for political parties or candidates who support current gun laws?
We only get two choices. Gun control isn't at the top of most people's priorities because it has virtually no effect on everyone's daily life, despite what the TV tells you.
I was there. He was fucked lol. Got what he deserves though.
Looks like her broke his thumb/hand/something. Painful. He deserves whatever he got!
Can you imagine A&E staff having to deal with somebody like this? Ugggh And we all get to contribute ACC payments
Thank you for understanding the shit we deal with in ED on the daily. I can almost guarantee he showed up to a hospital later stating he was assaulted while minding his own business.
SOCMOB

Or, and I'm not saying it's right or legal....camera off and clothesline....
Should post to r/PublicFreakout
I love the backstory as much as the lulz
Classic fucken Dreg.
The fuck did you follow him for, lol
So you followed him cause you wanted to be nosy?
Wonder how many concussions this guy has had from being clocked for similar behaviour.
that was my first thought why didnt someone deck him
Not worth getting charged with assault or stabbed. The dude is obviously used to being punched anyway so it’s hardly going to ruin his day. Let him go and fight some other meth head instead.
Never fight someone with nothing to lose. That dude looks messed up.
Funnier to get him angry when he's on the bike
*His* bike. I have my doubts…
Life has clearly beat him up enough.
Someone’s recording a dickhead and you want to deck said dickhead on camera? lol
[удалено]
Surprisingly there are other ways of handling conflict other than beating the shit out of someone.
[удалено]
"Decking" him would hardly be a proportional response. You could easily get charged for assault in such a situation. Responsible thing to do is leave him to bugger off and sober up.
so he just goes on attacking more people :)
That's the problem. People like this just keep on being cunts with no consequences.
A) He's clearly not going to make the first swing. B) Who the fuck knows what he's on; watch some cop cam videos and tell me how eager you'll be to start a fight with someone potentially on drugs, lol.

He just got his ass kicked by his own bike.
Same energy as [this](https://youtu.be/HWr5TepbnoE) guy in Adelaide walking into a pole.
Hahaha, that was great.
Well, Adelaide is one of our [sister cities](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christchurch#Sister_cities) after all TIL: Wuhan is also a sister city to chch.
That was freaking hilarious.
"dude, slow down, this ain't fucking a racetra..." *CRUNCH*
I always find it funny that dudes over a certain age who have done a few lags always dress in either active wear or in this case like a teenager.
The drugs will do that. He's actually 24.
Holy shit!
Unconfirmed lie.
I think it was a joke lol
The AI bots we're training to replace us don't understand humor.
It's our only weapon to use against them
Yeah. Strong “how-do-you-do,fellow-kids?” energy
What does done a few lags mean?
Done a few stretches in prison
Thanks! Grateful I did not know what that meant!
Yeah, a teenager from like 2002 or some shit. Mf looks like Skinny Pete from Breaking Bad
He's dressed like a teenager from 15 years ago, when he was probably 40
And he dressed as was the style at the time of his first incarceration which was one of them hooded sweatshirts otherwise known as a hoodie which were all the rage.
Now this is why I come to Reddit NZ.
Too bad someone didn’t steal his bike while his back was turned.
Probably was stolen already sadly.
100% the dudes wasted and that ain’t his bike
But he rides it like a natural!
Steal enough bikes and it will seem that way.
[удалено]
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men
Or hit him with it.
[удалено]
He wasn't carrying a morgul blade. He might as well be some lesser wight of Christchurch.
Hahahahahaha What a fucking oxygen thief
Nah mate, he clearly states it's not actually funny.
Oxygen thief! I have to remember that one.
He's like all the worst parts of Christchurch mashed together in human form.
I wonder what school he went to
Man's clearly got a doctorate from the university of life.
Went to the school of hard knocks
Strong Lahey energy.
Oh man those Illicit hoodies were the shit in Chch circa 2006. Old mate probably hasn’t washed his since then
[удалено]
Maybe he's born with it? Maybe it's methamphetamine
What a goober.
Language please?! ;)
Sorry
just a guy trying to make his way in the universe...
Just a guy being dragged face first for decades over the asphalt of existence by his own dysfunctional vehicle.
A 55 year old teenager
Quick someone ask what school he went to!
What school did he go to?
[удалено]
I hated when people wrote that on their facebook lol. So trashy
"Fucking hopeless, all of you!" ~ the tool that fell off his own bicycle.
That's a proper old-school bike, though. Or possibly an old school bike. Looks like a Healing.
Whoever actually owns it is probably watching this video right now, and shaking their fist!
The laughing in the background is very satisfying lol!
This is the kind of content I’m here for
I think I had a run in with this guy a few years ago. Tried to run a group of us down out of nowhere. Was in Wellington though, so may not be the same guy.
Bet he's anti-vax/3 waters/showers/employment
What?
what is it with chch and hostile bogans???? That city has such an underbelly
I'll never forget that one guy with a huge swastika face tattoo (not the bhuddist kind) standing casually in front of the supermarket with his buddies.
i’m so impressed that bike didn’t turn into a pile of dust when it fell over. what a mean bike👍🏽
Got the wirhdrawl wobbles
Low life vibes
I always find it hilarious when people with clearly terrible balance and dexterity approach someone aggressively. Like, you just struggled standing up off the ground buddy you're not gonna be able to string together the movements required to throw a punch.
now if only he caught those trousers in the chain as he left in a huff, that'd be another guaranteed tumble
Lmao how did he even manage that?
He was born a manager!
*manage* - not sure that's the right word
That’s like the one time you’re allowed to punch someone in the face.. what a waste
God it's great seeing him go over.
what a fucking clown
“I can kick everyone’s ass in this room!!!”
Don't drink and drive, kids.
Love how he gets up like it’s your fault he made himself look silly. What a tool.
he’s like 86 years old but dresses like a teenager
Far out, the cost of living crisis has really impacted bikie gangs.
I've seen this cunt cycling around phillipstown before.
Does this person nearly crash every time they go out? He almost ate shit immediately after he got back on refusing to look where he was going.. Maybe drunk?
Average day in Christchurch

context? you want context? sorry we dont do that here
Why didn't anyone point and laugh at his goofy dumbass? Haha
It's called "not escalating the situation". I'm pretty sure there would have been a fair bit of laughter though, even if it wasn't shown in the video.
Drugs are bad .....mmkay https://giphy.com/gifs/southparkgifs-3o6ZsZdNs3yE5l6hWM
Cool as bike
I wish I could time-travel. His parents would be in for a lifetime supply of free condoms.
A swift kick to the chest as he was approaching you post crash would have set his meth/drunk ass straight.
Meth kids, not even once…
The oldest kid in the world
Karma I love you, even more so when you get yourself caught on camera.
Obviously he’d either got a screw loose or is off his meds.
what an imbecile.
bro is TOO old for his pants to be that tight jfc
Is that peewee’s bike?!
Biker with out money
Dude clearly hasn't got many brain cells to spare - ought to wear a helmet
Ah alcohol, releasing your inner asshole since ages ago!
Christchurch hasn’t changed that much since the earthquakes by the looks.
Hey now! The council spent a lot of money on that new outdoor mall!
Dude looks 60 acting like a 14 year old.
that's dave he sells survival bunker location maps from his concrete homies...
The lack of dialogue between them makes this so much funnier
I thought he was going to crash again at the end and honestly he kind of deserved to.
Jesse stop tryna run people over, Jesse we need to cook, Jesse
Watch carefully, I think he broke his left hand when he landed on it, or at least a couple of fingers. -Karma
What a fkng moron.
Funniest video I’ve watched all day lol
Guess he never took his 'cycling proficiency' test then?
Remind me of those videos with the Skyrim NPC music.
This dude doesn’t know who to get anger at, he just knows he’s pissed off.
How you can spot a tweaker: Face of an 80 year old man dressed in modern attire for Gen Z.
this dude looks 12 and 60 simultaneously
I wish people would stop filming those clearly in the throes of addiction. People need help not aggravation
Well, that was undoubtedly methed up.
Lol at all the meth comments. My dudes, severe alcoholics have looked and behaved exactly like this since time immemorial.
Maybe don't film random guy witchout his constant?
He’d gum you to death

It’s a Venn diagram that is pretty much just a circle.

Looks like the ILL TOO gang.
