The Friday Commute: Old Man Fights Fellow Bus Rider

3

It is finally Friday. On Fridays at the office, we can usually relax, get hyped about our weekend plans, and watch viral videos online. And, my friends, I have a good viral video for you today.

Public transit is generally chaotic. It is rare to ride the subway or bus and not find someone who looks like they are about to snap. Even more so, it is not a good idea to instigate these people and set them off. This video provides the perfect example of what not to do while riding public transportation. I recommend watching a few times since there are many small details to this video that make it so great.

Please keep in mind that this video may not be safe for work due to the strong level of violence and profanity. That being said, put on those head phones, grab a hot cup of coffee and enjoy. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Note-worthy observatons:

1. Spit shines aren’t free. Although the conflict appears to have been caused by a misunderstanding on a “spit shine” agreement, it quickly turns into a race issue. The old man explicitly states he isn’t prejudice, while the younger guy just doesn’t care.

2. The man is 67 years old. On paper, 67 sounds old. However, when the man stands up, he appears to be over 6′ tall and definitely over 200 pounds. When you consider you’re up against old man strength AND crazy man strength, it’d be wise to take a seat (of course we wouldn’t have a great video if this happened).

3. I am a motherf*cker. Yes, it is that awesome, the man’s shirt reads “I am a motherf*cker”.

4. The old man’s bag is stolen. Despite a broken nose, it looks like the young guy got away with the old man’s bag. The million dollar question… what’s in the bag?

5. The Jelly Bean is the new popcorn. Who wouldn’t want to be snacking on Jelly Beans while this fight goes down? Sweet, tart, and perfect for watching a young man get hammer punched.

6. Keep our city clean and safe. Wow. As the movie ends, the camera pans to the right, displaying a sign that reads “Keep our city clean and safe, do your part”. Could this have been planned? There’s just no way – the video is simply that good.

After watching this video, it now makes perfect sense why people stay quiet on their commutes. This video serves as a reminder to all – don’t mess with a 67-year-old man wearing a fanny-pack and a t-shirt that reads “I am a motherf*cker”.

Happy Friday, and make sure you share this with your co-workers. It is quite the treat.

    Little did they know, the old man left a stink bomb in the bag. Planned two-step attack. It was like shooting a javelin, then chucking a grenade at the beginning of Rust in COD. The double whammy. Old man: 2, Young dude: 0.

    Am I the only one who got the impression that the old man is some kind of war veteran? I’d bet money on it.

    Wow, that young guy got the crap beat out of him buy some old guy. When are people going to realize to size up their opponent before they fight, if he is bigger than you and looks like he is going to snap and beat the crap out of you…then sit there and shut your mouth.
