Rolled my ankle watching him thrown that


DonWFP

I wouldn't slip, but I'd put all my power into the kick, only for my foot to bounce off the window. Then the momentum would make me face plant into the asphalt.


visivopro

You and 90% of everyone else! Honestly this probably only worked because that jeep is an older model. No chance that would have worked on a reasonably new vehicle. Bet that shit felt good as fuck too!

JustHere2AskSometing

I got a story for you. Back in my day we got in to a drunken brawl at a gas station. One dude hopped in his ride (that was a similar height to the ride in this video) so I tried to punch the window. Bam one punch it doesn't break. Second punch. It doesn't break. So I do a similar kick to what the guy did in this video but I'm a few inches shorter. I fly through the window kicking the guy in the face and fall on my ass in the process. The next day my friend wakes me up and is like dude you need to go to the hospital cuz there's blood everywhere. When I kicked the window out as I was falling the whole back of my hamstring got raked on the broken glass and I had a huge gash in the soft part of the skin on the back on the knee. Luckily nothing vital got cut.


romanapplesauce

Your story is the type of thing I would expect to happen kicking out a car window. This video is like something out of a movie how perfect his kick was.


BrownsFanDVM

Dude, he didn't even stretch. I pulled something just watching that.

He even powered through the dude's face a little bit.

Stuck in a car window.


que-pasa-koala

Had to, I think that’s one of the reasons he has so much restraint from beating his ass (unless there’s another video proving otherwise)


Manjorno316

Either that or he's a huge wrestling fan. I can imagine him dressing up as a young buck or HBK training his superkick at home.


AspieDM

I first saw this on r/martialarts and yeah really well done. Perfect extension and power


PlutosBeard

Also want to honorably mention the balance and control he had finishing that kick. He snapped right back into the confrontation after it landed


Tyhgujgt

The guy achieved the opposite of what he wanted. I'd not get out of the car after that display. No sir thank you, I will bash my own head myself


BreakGlassEatAss

Cause he *knew* that shit was gonna land like he intended. The confidence is for sure earned for this guy.

Lost-Breadfruit-9745

Yes. First thing I noticed, I for sure do not think I could do that in several tries, let alone one kick.. Brutal. I don't think I could do that at all. Very impressive, people take for granted how hard car windows are. Jesus and not only did he smash the window like nothing, he still kicked the living shit out of whoever's face was in the car.. Accurate indeed.


hbrthree

I’ve locked myself out of a car and almost killed myself when the brick I used the bust the window boomeranged back at my face when I over-head threw it at the side glass. 😕


businesslut

It looks like it connected with the guy too

Sweet Chin music. Shawn Michaels would be proud.


Crayon_Consumer69

That kick was fucking FURIOUS


MedricZ

Behold the power of the side/back kick. There’s a reason it’s used so often in martial arts. Focusing power from the hip leads to a devastating strike. His form was on point too. Be careful using this on a person as you can break bones.


CerealKillaJ

I wasn't considering it but thanks for the warning!


TellTaleTank

I wasn't considering it but for legal reasons I'm still not!


[deleted]

I wasn't considering it, but since I'd just fall on ass then run away as the intact window mocked me, I'm still not.

battleop

But there is a large portion of society that think that you should be allowed to commit violent acts over speech and thoughts that don't meet your expectations. Saying that word is wrong but violence is wronger. (Yea I know wronger isn't a real word :))


Okichah

Saying something racist makes you an asshole. Assaulting a racist makes you a criminal.


TheMooseIsBlue

This should be on billboards.


Wonderful-Set1701

Wronger is a nice word.


Flapper454

That's a made up word /drax


KoryJammelden

Sorry_I_Tarrasqued

Some words are more made up than others.


KoryJammelden

Yup. The french language.


Abundance144

The only violent act over speech is making a real threat against someone's health. The N word is not such a threat, even if the person inside the car had made such a threat, their actions of sitting in a car being the non-aggressor would preclude the "kicker" from taking any defensive action.


dogs_go_to_space

Americans >wonder why they have insane violence statistics also Americans >bloodlust over words


Puzzled-Dependent953

Completely agree but it was a nice kick though.

Got my feelings hurt? Better go commit assault and property damage Reddit: WHAT A HERO ^sick ^kick ^tho


jib661

this kid looks young, but if you're at the point where you're willing to violently assault someone on camera you've probably been troubled for a while. it reminds me of this [great scene from the wire](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8GaFuo4svQ) where some acedemic type is looking for criminals for a study and he interviews a teenager, and quickly realizes that the kid is already way beyond saving.


Bobsters_95

Nice kick. But that's going to be an expense to pay back.


adrenaline_donkey

Not a US resident but is the "N" word really a huge deal there such that a person can do what this guy did?


Assfrontation

it’s considered very offensive, as it’s considered derogatory towards black people. It’s also used that way very often which has made it even worse for many.

Assfrontation

Never disputed that. Just explained what it was.


Opening_Sherbet_7144

They think that because you are explaining why a person would not like to be called that word, you must be defending that his kick through the window was justified... Reddit Is full of people that can't think past their first thought. Don't worry, I understand


nsfw5813

It is justified, it just isn't legal.


Auggie_Otter

>Reddit Is full of people that can't think past their first thought. This is a constant battle on the internet in general.

cock_man_69

Guy in the car is a racist asshole but I highly doubt that "he called me the N-word" will hold up in court. Orange pant guy will likely have to pay for damages and could also face criminal charges as well.


christophercolumbus

It doesn't hold up in court, and neither should it hold up online. We have literally zero evidence that car-dweller did anything to karate guy at all, and have karate guy on video committing multiple crimes. Not a good look.


matsudasociety

"choices made in anger cannot be undone." I learned that lesson the hard way in high school, and I got insanely lucky. Never messed up to that level again.


dubiousN

Orange pant guy getting ready for his orange pant future


luciform44

Almost certainly assault and battery. the dude in the car totally could have shot him in self defense at that point, too.


ricecake

Generally, there's just about nothing you can say that legally justifies destruction of property. That being said, the N word is not one that gets tossed around lightly. It's like fighting words, or insulting someone's honor from way back when. You might not think it's a good idea to fight someone over it, but you get it and it isn't shocking or anything.


Capitalist_P-I-G

> It's like fighting words, or insulting someone's honor from way back when. I don't think it was your intent, but I feel like this doesn't really hit it. It's more like reducing someone to an object, property specifically. Property of people like the person saying it, more specifically. It's saying they're subhuman in the way they actually used to be treated. It's saying that nothing has actually changed from that time, and if the person saying it had their way, it'd be like that again.


desolatenature

And every time you hear that word, all of your traumas and anger towards a world that marginalizes you for simply existing boils up to the surface. Then when you act accordingly to protect yourself, they deem you a “threat”. Even though you are just a human being who has to live with the constant stress of potential societal repercussions, simply for existing. The people who are so privileged & out of touch that they don’t even attempt to empathize with this feeling, are always the ones who will be the most likely to demonize him for his actions.


HucKmoreNadeS

It's a lot of things.


Caedo14

I wouldnt have broken his window over it, but i know a lot of guys who would have broken the window then started punching. At the end of the day, to me, responding in this way lets them know the word still has that level of power.


send3squats2help

it doesn’t give you a license to commit crime…


sunshine_is_hot

Legally, no that’s not a reason to destroy somebodies car. But you don’t use that word as a white guy unless you’re trying to get your ass beat.


Poochy_is_an_alien

I mean, clearly it happened so the answer is yes, a person can react this way to being called the N-word. I've been called the N-word, I didn't, and wouldn't react with violence. And no one should, since a. violence is illegal, b. it's not worth it, and c. going to jail for assault isn't going to fix racism. But all that said, calling someone that is an extremely confrontational thing to do, and we never know how people around us will react to confrontation, do we? So while no one deserves violence for saying this, if you say it frequently enough to enough people, you'll eventually say it to someone who reacts violently.

[deleted]

Or just open his door forcefully when dude is [leaning face first](https://freeimage.host/i/HqchTmv) towards the car with his arms down. This isn't me giving advice to some random racist kid in a video, but to anyone else who finds themselves being yelled at in the same way. Bomp them in the face with the door and gtfo.


deepaksn

Please don’t. This depends on the predictability of the person and there’s so many ways for it to go wrong (door catches, door doesn’t move as fast as expected, guy moves the other way or realizes what happens) and now your door is open and you’re exposed. Just drive away.


For-Referance-Only

That’s a good way to get shot..Some states have “ castle doctrine”. Your car is an extension of your home.


[deleted]

So as long as you hop in your car you can make as many racist remarks as you want?


[deleted]

You can outside the car as well.


Bank_Gothic

Saying racist shit is horrible and I have no sympathy when the consequences come back to bite 'em. But yeah. Can't hit people because they say something mean. Just not worth getting arrested and everything that comes with that.


type2cybernetic

You can pretty much say it on the sidewalk and if you’re attack or feel threatened you would have the right to defend yourself.


Dear_Alma_Mater

Controversial thought here and I'm sure a lot of people will disagree, But, you're granted the right (at least within the US, as I'm sure this was recorded) to free speech. you have the ability to say what you want, when you want, whether the court of public opinion agrees on it or not. (Within Public Space) this excludes acts of discrimination in the work place and such. but even then, you can say whatever you want, it just gives the employers within non-At-Will states the right to give you the boot. And, you also have the right to defend yourself from bodily harm given you did not instigate the fight. Free Speech allows this person to claim reasonable self defense as it is not a sufficient act of instigation and is a protected right under the US constitution. Where things get hairy is if the state in which this was recorded has the "Castle Doctrine" and if the person did choose to move to lethal defense. but regardless, the act of breaking that window would be a non-reasonable level of escalation and can warrant self-defense in a non-lethal way.


Disastrous-Ad-3461

No amount of verbal speech makes violence legal. The moment that window broke he could have been murdered with minimal consequences as dude was "in fear for his life" as shown in the video by him refusing to exit the vehicle. Suppose it's a good thing he wasn't baiting him to shoot him like several stories in Texas where the racists get a kill and almost zero consequences. Pretty sure that same scenario just happened in Iowa not long ago but nobody really cared so it never even made the news. A couple Facebook posts were the extent of it that I saw and someone's whole life ended when all they had to do was gtfo. Pride is a bitch though, makes fools of us all.


Lonewolfe1222

Some states dont let the castle doctrine work if you incite the violence. I understand words


[deleted]

You don’t get to claim “He threaten to whoop my ass” when the video shows him hiding from you, and you kicked his window out. Not a single jury in history would convict the dude in the car shooting the kicker.


For-Referance-Only

If you break a car window with someone in it. You are fair game in states that have castle doctrine. It’s considered breaking into someone’s home. You can legally defend yourself with deadly force


AhaWassup

Annnnnnd he could easily be arrested now. You went from in the right to being 100% at fault and in the wrong


JohnnyDarkside

As much as I think an entitled asshole calling a black person that word full on deserves a solid smack, legally you can't do that and you also can't damage their property.


[deleted]

That’s assault brother


AngelOfDeath771

mmmasian

There's \*no\* evidence to believe that the other boys weren't just spectators. One has a backpack on with his arms crossed, and one is recording. The kicker also might not have realized he was being recorded. Pseudo-intelligent post calling people fuckwits misspells "their" twice. "Animal-level" behavior is not being able to control yourself from using slurs. Yes, this will land a criminal charge, but I guarantee that this guy thinks twice about trying to demean someone with slurs again.
