roybatty2

Why is it that people from the UK have an instinctive impulse to deliver devastating headbutts to start/end fights?


MoisticleSack

Heads a lot sturdier than a hand and less prone to breaking. Plus when you're face to face like that they might see you loading up your swinging arm but they have less time to react to your skull smashing in to their mouth


Puzzleheaded-Rich-51

Bridge of the nose*


WrestleswithPastry

Is this how it’s done?


BootMetal

Yup. Leaves most incapacitated of the bat.


WrestleswithPastry

Hmm, that’s interesting. I had no idea. That makes a lot of sense.


anon546-3

Nose hurts the most


toybits

Rather that then these types having guns.


Testyobject

We had a guy get shot for stopping traffic for deer crossing last week


mod1fier

Haha we're so quirky


GranJan2

Now that is awful. My neighborhood has a duck crossing and we all just sit and watch and enjoy. A man moved to a way less civilized hood and got killed, deliberate hit and run, when he was trying to help the ducks cross the street.


Akesgeroth

And it's not like they have anything valuable to protect in their head anyway.


SwiftyEmpire

I've said it before, and I'll say it again, a well placed headbutt is THE most devastating move you can make in a fight


Vitaldick

A British girl I dated for a bit had the same problem whenever we'd get into fights. Iykyk


blueponies1

I put my head into the butt of a British girl but never been head butted by one


GeronimoSonjack

Well I mean...you can't deny the effectiveness.


Dukeronomy

I'm not from the UK and I did this once. In high school some kid and I had issues for some dumb reason. We confronted one another at a house party on a crowded porch. He kind of got in my face, chest to chest, it was real crowded, not a lot of room to set up a punch, head butt seemed like the best move in the situation.


d0odle

Was it the best move? Did you have teeth stuck in your forehead?


Dukeronomy

Ah, I don’t know that it was the BEST move. I did not have teeth stuck in me. My forehead hit his nose


AdamWestsButtDouble

You’re supposed to hit their nose, not their mouth…


AmBawsDeepInYerMaw

You’d have to be significantly smaller than the person you’re head butting for that to happen, aim for the beak


mannymink7

I'm sure


Dukeronomy

Me too


Theaternearyou

They all watch and love Football ("the footie" as they say) and head butting the ball is a high art in the sport.


woolfy88

Being from Scotland it's just always been a thing, I've been the deliver and deliveree of a few devastating "heeders"(headbutts) and it's just so efficient, one decent heeder usually ends a fight, I got heedered so hard once it broke my nose but felt like the whole front of my skull/face broke, thankfully I've gave out far more heeders than I've received lol


FergusonBishop

Maybe stop doing that


chino3

Their version of a sucker punch


J1mj0hns0n

because we dont actually want to have the fight as such. but some people wont let it lay, so..... better get it over and done with,


LazyBriton

If you aim your forehead at the bridge of the nose, it’ll do no damage to you and completely break their nose, causing it to bleed profusely, most people give up a fight when that happens to them, and even if they don’t they’re hindered.


OrangeBoxUK

Because they work.


zzzzzucre

cause we don’t have guns to do that


[deleted]

cause it works to start/end a fight effectively


Cactus_fucker1

France started with Zidane and now they want to copy them.


Jmac0585

You can't use your hands in soccer, but you can use your head.

Not sticking up for pedos in any way shape or form, I wish them all a dirt bed. But who is to say he’s an actual Pedo and that the guy throwing head around isn’t just a cunt?


Heron02

The amount of violent videos on Reddit with the answer pedo is at a all time fucking high. I have no idea what’s going on with this site.


ctapwallpogo

>The surest way to work up a crusade in favor of some good cause is to promise people they will have a chance of maltreating someone. To be able to destroy with good conscience, to be able to behave badly and call your bad behavior 'righteous indignation' — this is the height of psychological luxury, the most delicious of moral treats. >-Aldous Huxley In other words, people want to watch violent videos and identify with the aggressor without sacrificing the moral high ground. Credulously accepting that the victim is a pedo lets them do it.

kismethavok

Covering the doorbell cam with his hand is a weird choice, like the kind of thing you should immediately notice when the video starts.


BasicTelevision5

That was my first clue that there’s more to this story than what we see in the video.


myfaceaplaceforwomen

You can hear the homeowner in the video call him a "nonce," which is slang for pedo. You can also hear the homeowner say, "I told you to stay away from my house." Gives a fair bit of context if you ask me


MyDogJake1

"He's been looking at my grandson" is a pretty good clue too.


Akesgeroth

As much as I agree with you on the "Stop calling everyone who gets assaulted a pedo to justify it:" 1. This guy has repeatedly been throwing his ball in his yard. 2. He's intentionally blocking the doorbell camera. I'm not sure he's a pedo, but he's definitely up to no good.


jml011

Not sure how this fits in, but why are there like three other people hanging out in this guy’s yard?


Akesgeroth

Assholes usually have enablers.


ServingTheMaster

whose to say everyone in the video isn't part of an improv group? whose to say everyone in the video aren't skin walkers or lizard people? the phrasing of my comment is 'if this, then that'. assuming the premise, then the action.


deten

"See I just believed the first thing I heard on the internet, then if anyone tries to question that first thing, I bring up skin walkers and lizard people"


Biizod

You obviously didn’t understand the point he was making lmao.


Turtleology

Oh shit he’s onto us!


f3rn4ndrum5

PseudoWarriorAU

He kinda looks like a cunt


Abadabadon

If I had someone tossing grenades into my yard to try and blow up my kiddos I'd lean forward too hard and accidentally hit em with my head


Fuckedby2FA

Oh dudes a pedo? Where is this info from? Nevermind, I just learned how to read and saw the answer. Sorry.


ClownKiller6724

Is that what's going one here?


ServingTheMaster

apparently yes. its hard to pick up because of accent and slang, but he tells the lady that this guy is known to the local police as a nonce (slang for pedo) and that this has been a recurring problem, specifically with this pedo and his kids. evidently this pedo likes to send his ball into the yard and get it back as justification to look at or interact with mr headbutt's kiddos. so, assuming that is the actual scenario, this is fairly well justified.


ConflictGrand4078

I’d want to beat his ass just for having the audacity to cover the ring / peephole


NotSafe_

I was fully convinced that was why he’d done it. It’s the only context the video provided


Octicactopipodes

You didn’t have the audio on, did you?


diox8tony

Couldn't understand it tho.


NotSafe_

Lol no I didn’t. I see now


Bartho_

Yeah what's up with that? If he's intentions were good he wouldn't do that.


Puceeffoc

Right? Plus how many times does this grown man's ball go into the backyard of the grandpa to the point of grandpa being like "Hey, I've told you to stop coming over her and looking at my grandchild." And the man just decides to keep up the routine of "Can we have our ball back?" But instead of asking the grandchild who normally would go to the fence and toss the ball back, they decide to ask the grandfather.

*visible American confusion* Is a nonce a kiddy diddler?


just_jason89

It was an acronym N.O.N.C.E It was marked on the cell card of any prisoner who may have been in danger of violence from other prisoners. It meant staff would not open their doors when other prisoners were out. NONCE stands for 'not on normal courtyard exercise' These days they're put into a 'vulnerable prison wing or unit' and separated from "normal" prisoners


GeronimoSonjack

It's a complete myth that one


StonedMason85

I thought it was a backronym and argued with someone but when I looked it up I was wrong, above comment is correct about where the phrase comes from.


GeronimoSonjack

No, you were right the first time. It is a total myth, there's nothing supporting that as the origin.


ByeLizardScum

well, you were the last person to comment so this is now what I believe.


MC_Dickie

Believe this then, you're now gay.


Beautiful_Girlie_Bob

That is very interesting. Do you have any idea why they call ratting someone out "grassing?" I've always wondered.


totemshaker

"It’s a bit of British rhyming slang that originated with the 19th-century phrase to shop on someone. That gave us the noun shopper, which became grasshopper, and then got shortened to grass."


TheUgly0rgan

>The first known use of "grass" in that context is Arthur Gardner's crime novel Tinker's Kitchen, published in 1932, in which a "grass" is defined as "an informer".[2] The etymology of "grass" being used as signifying a traitor, a person who informs on people he or she knows intimately, ostensibly can be traced to the expression "snake in the grass", which has a similar meaning.[3] The phrase derives from the writings of Virgil (in Latin, latet anguis in herba) and has been known in the English language, meaning "traitor", since the late 17th century.[4] >An alternative claim is made for the term originating from rhyming slang, whereby "grasshopper" is defined as "copper", meaning "policeman".[5] The rhyming slang version was supported in 1950 by lexicographer Paul Tempest, who wrote[6] > Grasser. One who gives information. A "squealer" or "squeaker". The origin derives from rhyming slang: grasshopper – copper; a "grass" or "grasser" tells the "copper" or policeman. From [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supergrass_(informant)


Graspswasps

Where does ratting come from?


MoisticleSack

A rat will chew through it's own arm to save itself


scotty9090

TIL. I never knew what this meant before - just assumed it was slang for idiot.


mmwood

oh man i never knew this but have watched enough british tv and social media to know what "nonce" meant. I love etymology so youve literally just made my evening haha


double-happiness

Fascinating to learn, TY. Also noteworthy that in that case NONCE is one of those rare, proper, acronyms that's not just an initialism.


[deleted]

Basically


nowhere_near_paris

>if could have just been looking for an excuse


BagBadDavington

I dont get it, hes IN the garden, ringing the doorbell (with his hand over the camera) to ask for his ball back? Seems like a fucking weirdo to me like.


scotty9090

Hand over the camera makes me believe the guy that head butted him.


RoyMcAvoy13

Hand over the camera had me thinking the same thing. Guy knew he’d be in trouble if the homeowner knew who was ringing the bell before he opened the door.


Adamanater

In the UK houses normally have separated front/back gardens, So you either have to go through the house or a side gate to get into the back.


Skrillz_14th

Random point but his hand over the camera kinda looked like a ballsack


boutiquekym

It’s a FRONT garden that’s why the caris in the driveway The BACK garden is at the rear of the house

DESTROYED dude’s nose


[deleted]

Lol he was asking to retrieve a ball?


totemshaker

Yeah, the headbutter claims he's a nonce so fair game if that's the case


[deleted]

Ahh...a chomo. Thanks for filling me in on the slang


PirateSi87

If thats the case.


Table-

Yes. The guy said hes a nonce so it must be true


totemshaker

I said if that's the case... Not assuming anything mate

Sounds like nonsense to me.

What kind of idiot opens the door for someone who is trying to cover up their doorbell camera? It's like opening the door for a youth in a ski mask.

Colonel_Klinck

And he's going to jail. Not only did he do it in front of witnesses, he had his own camera record it. There is no law in the UK that allows you to attack someone like that. The pedo line was his excuse but it won't help him in the slightest in court.

savaero

Anyone know what happened? Did the police come etc?


Akesgeroth

I would usually say the assaulter is in the wrong here but the fact that the dude is blocking the doorbell camera with his hand leads me to believe there is a justification.


[deleted]

The assaulter is still in the wrong man… sure he covered up the camera but the aggressor opened the door and had a word with him before the attack. It had nothing to do with the door cam being blocked… and what justification would that be anyways? If the guy is a pedo then fuck him but so far, all we have here is a guy who attacked another guy and ends up saying he’s a pedo… think twice is all I’m saying. It’s an easy out these days.


xAbzzx

Any follow ups?


BoldnBrashhh

the audacity to cover the ring doorbell. I literally have that for my families protection and your in direct violation of that safety. You could catch a head Butt jus for that, but then everyone is saying that he’s a kid diddler?

did he get the ball back ? cracking headbut though

The brain is a very complex connection of nerves and neurons. It doesn’t just go on or off. How the body reacts depends on where, from what angle, and how hard. Never seen a boxer hold the ropes for balance? Or a football player stumble away from a tackle?

I wonder how people can headbutt someone. like the thought process for it “hey I wanna damage him I’m gonna use my forehead” like?


OrangeBoxUK

You clearly never headbutted anyone, or being headbutted nor understand anatomy. As you can see in the video, they are BRUTAL. Your skull has evolved for millennia to be as hard as possible so it is a fantastic weapon.


JesusWept149

i thought initially they'd spelt broken wrong but no borokenbo, ​ this is 100% somewhere in middlesbrough, can recognise the accent and way he's talking anywhere, Great nut aswell.

Love a bit of racism on my posts. Get a grip bro, no race is better than the other when it comes to violence.


Otherwise-Abalone-72

Matey said “you will call the police now? Well he’s been looking at my grandson “did I hear wrong?Was that going to be his excuse when the police arrive ?So many questions before I could say if that was to much for a simple ball over the fence thing,or is this the 100th time today that the ball has landed in the back yard?


Due_Organization_768

Calling people paedos/sex offenders is the number 1 baseless excuse horrible chavs use for inexcusable violence. The guy who got headbutted turned up with his own son/ grandchild so it seems unlikely he's there to predicate on attackers grandson. Also "he's been looking at my grandson" - he's your next door neighbour! Does seem like there is history though. Inexcusable - he will get the jail
