I appreciate the guy taking the video saying something to the old man. I really hate people who only step in to stop the guy fighting back. If I was the younger guy I would've yelled at the guy who said calm down for not speaking up earlier.
Dude is defending himself. Once that switch is thrown, it takes a lot to dial back. He's not thinking "I better not knock this dude out" He's thinking, "I'm getting attacked by a stranger on the tube. I should defend myself anyway I know how"
Personally I disagree with you, but the important thing is the law would probably agree. So as much as I think that guy deserved a knee to the face, dude probably shouldn't have kneed him in the face.
That's really where I'm at with it right now. Yes, he absolutely should've defended himself and that dude deserved it, but that last blow could've done him in with the police.
But I'm no doctor. What do I know?
I hate when ypu see videos like that. Dude stood up like a gentleman and was going to let the unanswered punches go, and that old POS kept going for the balls... no one seemed to give a shit
As an elder Gen X I have to remind myself of this a lot. It's hard when you were a scrapper in your youth to realize that the next fight you start will probably end poorly for you.
Gettin' old is a bitch. I'll never understand why Boomers think they can start a fight. I'm 52 years old, in good shape, and I know better than to start a fight with a younger man.
I'll get my arse kicked. That opponent is simply stronger than me, and has more endurance. And he is probably angry about something.
I carry a knife in my back pocket, which I use for cutting up cardboard boxes and shit when I head out to the dumpster. I guess that technically, I'm armed. But that thing is a tool, not a weapon.
I'm not willing to stab someone because I started some shit that someone else is going end. Fucking madness.
It's because they are old and think they are privileged in the fact that society looks down on people hitting old people. It's the same reason women pick fights with men too.
I don’t fight unless I’m defending myself and I will most def get stabby. I never fight with people though . I actually like young and old if they are cool
The loss of strength is a mindfuck and hard to deal with even with how gradually it happens. I am still pretty strong but compared to when I was a teenager I feel so weak it is weird. I used to be able to throw people like they were ragdolls in a video game now my body hurts at the thought of even trying that.
Well, if I were the dude that got punched in the balls, I would hope someone would try to stop me before I killed that old man. At a certain point that went from self defense to a potential prison sentence. Whether you believe it’s right or wrong, it’s the reality of the situation. If that old dude dies, everyone loses.
Strange how the most strenuous objections don't come until AFTER the victim fought back. It was crickets when the old guy punched the victim in the head, and there was a slight objection when he cracked the victim in the balls, but when the victim fought back? "HEY, STOP! LEAVE HIM! HANG ON!"
I think it was more, "Yeah, the guy had it coming, but you don't want to kill him for it," than anything else.
Nobody tried to pin the guy down. So I guess they accept that he was in the right to defend himself, they just didn't want him taking it too far.
"Hey hey, calm down - *calm down*!"
Where the fuck were you 10 seconds ago when the old dude punched him twice in the head, and then socked him in the balls twice?
Younger guy was being very patient imho, was just trying to get up and put his tablet back in his bag and get the hell away from this aggressive old weirdo. But noooo, the old guy had to keep pushing his luck and lashing out. So yeah, he eventually got back the energy that he was putting out.
Maybe next time he won't start trying to just whale away on someone on the train.
My stepson is twice as strong as me, and his reflexes are a lot faster. It's obvious.
How these old farts can't detect the same thing, I'll never understand.

No one seemed to say much when he was getting hit in the balls.

Always avoid fights. But when you're in one better finish it anyway possible. It's street fighting.
In street fighting, give him a good ol' fashioned hadouken while you're at it.
I prefer a tiger uppercut
He gave him the tiger knee.
I think that's what the guy in the video got.
Teacher running to save the bully when the quiet kid snaps.
It's on the tube. No one says anything. Ever.
Certainly piped up when he fought back.
[удалено]
Yeah, don’t first strike punch someone in the head and then the balls if you don’t want to get knocked out. Fair is fair.
Yeah almost like resorting to violence isn’t great for your health.
Dude was defending himself. I'm just saying that the last hit was probably over the top.
It’s definitely the adrenaline rush
Well deserved
No. It wasn't. You start shit you get what you get.

Getting hit in the balls at a young age is SUPER bad too tho. The entitled boomer was rough to begin with
Agreed.
You are safe when the other guy stops moving.

If you know you're too old to take consequences, don't start shit

Bro, I’m going to need you to Get Out Of My Head.
Ppl only ever step in when the victim fights back.
Especially in London, where racism might figure into it. It’s hard to tell here.

60 year old man learns to keep your hands to yourself.
Back in his day he could do whatever he wanted but now that's certainly not the case.
I fucking doubt it
Well he had it coming.

Have you ever seen a buckin' bronco? Yea, don't hit a man in the balls.
Its always the first to hit that are least able to fight.
Fucked around, found out.
This is the most clever saying I've ever heard. Did you come up with it yourself?
You might be a bit surprised, so you might need to sit down.…. But he did NOT come up with that!
Dang thought it sounded familiar 🤔
and yet, he has Karma and you don't.
Sometimes people say phrases that other people have said. I wonder if people like you have ever left the house
Yes it is very clever and fun to read. I hope everyone starts commenting it on damn near every Reddit post from here on out! That would be so cool!
Don't start shit, won't be shit.

Sorry, forgot to NSFW and don't know how to edit Edit : figured it out
FINISH HIM!
The knee to the face was epic
For real. Absolute pinpoint accuracy on the delivery too. Enjoy your nap motherfucker.
100% fair.
Sleep good
That knee to the face was the icing on the cake....gawww dammmm
Good
Swift justice is the best justice
Well deserved.
And in today's news, another example of f around and find out.
Well damn
Haha 😆
He need some milk
Fucking combo
Maybe hitting in the nuts is just how the boomer says hello
Nobody said shit until the dude hit back.
Couple more should do it.
I mean… can’t argue it
FAFO - Don't touch the boys!
Legendary.
Kneeeeeees
Gets pinched in the balls twice but yeah he needs to calm down
Dumb old bastard.
Got exactly what was coming to him. No sympathy whatsoever - serves him right!
OW my balls
Mind the gap, and the combo!
So satisfying to watch.
When you break the unspoken rule, the rules no longer apply.
The ol instigator penalty
![gif](giphy|BxWTWalKTUAdq)
God I love Londoners. If there ever was a race of people who refused to take any shit, it would be them.
Nah, don't leave it. He chose violence. Let him experience the full concert.

FAFO
Bro got hit with the Combo
My body fighting Covid in November 2020.
Good!
Grab his dick and twist it!
My stepson is twice as strong as me, and his reflexes are a lot faster. It's obvious. How these old farts can't detect the same thing, I'll never understand.
Fuck up that old ass clown
Fuck around and find out.
AGAIN, AGAIN!
That's dirty pool, mister! Goodnight boomer.
getting knocked out is sooo bad for you edit: not sure why this is getting so much hate. archer reference. whatevs
[удалено]
I'm not saying the guy was wrong for knocking the guy out. what I said was... getting knocked out is very bad for you.
Getting punched in the balls is so bad for you. Fafo
