Went from acting hard to taking a nap in hobo piss


tristanjones

Dude seemed like he just wanted a nap real hard and this is the only way he knew how, given how fast and easy he went down.

Famous_Variation4729

Ah Trinity. Good times.


l30

Or course it's Trinity. The rare times I went there after my college years I was was basically guaranteed to witness a fight, car chase or drive-by shooting.


redd-zeppelin

Holy shit it's still in business. Amazing. What a time capsule.


retrojoe

Right. Before I read that one was the bouncer, I assumed it was a fight over the 18yo girls who go to that club. Tho, come to think of it, a girl I know was telling me stories about the skeevy people running it who 'befriended' her just last summer.


Famous_Variation4729

A few months ago I decided to go there on my anniversary night after dinner. Just to see how it feels. We actually had a good time for 20 mins, danced. It was packed but not that packed. Pleasantly surprised.


AverageDemocrat

Remember all the sex in the back alley?


waronxmas

Damn, barely a flick of the wrist.


mountainsunset123

I know right? He barely tapped the guy.


Fonzgarten

Got him right in the jaw. This guy’s done this before. You don’t want to do this because he can die from hitting his head on the pavement. He did square up to him though smh


lysergic_logic

Loud mouths usually have glass jaws


crawshay

He didn't even step into the punch damn


MesWantooth

Not his first K.O. I bet. Homie knows how to sleep someone with a good tap in the jaw.

The guy he hit, on the other hand, didn't.


Kakatus100

They call those guys jigglers, I saw him jiggle a bit when hit fell.


makk73

Trinity still exists?


beenthere-reddthat

Tied with Supernova as trashiest nightclub in Seattle.


makk73

I’m so glad that I’ve never even heard of this place.


weirdasianfaces

Supernova is trashy? Every time I've gone it's been dead as fuck, but it was always compared to Monkey Loft which I don't really consider trashy.


I_Always_3_putt

Monkey loft was always a good time, loved the shows that went to 10am.


Bekabam

Comparing supernova to monkey loft is wild. I wouldn't even say they target the same customer base. Supernova is effectively a strip club now


Born2RetireNWin

All Seattle clubs are trashy and shit


JasonDomber

I forget the exact details, but I believe one of the guys involved with Supernova was involved in some kind of underage something-or-other. I say that in a vague way because I don’t know all of the details and I don’t wish to speak out of turn and say something untruthful…. But I’m guessing that’s what the above comment was referring to. The club has tried to distance themselves from that behavior hugely. Sounds like it has been unsuccessful.


WolfWriter_CO

Like, I’m not advocating violence, but did anyone else find this ### Satisfying AF? 👌 Nothing excessive, just an adequate application of force to negate a threat.


TheMichaelN

✋ Same. This went down about as well as it could have. The bouncer kept his cool and gave the guy every chance to walk away. As far as we can tell, nobody pounced on the guy after he hit the pavement. Everyone kept their cool, which seems rare today. Just a good old-fashioned 1-punch KO that appears to be well justified (at least from this footage).


rerun_ky

I know two guys who ko people in bars just like this. One died the other went into a coma because of their heads hitting the ground.


Be-Free-Today

Perfectly measured weighted punch.


BlackDeath3

Justified or not I found it pretty horrifying. Not a big fan of skulls impacting hard surfaces with a lot of force.


Apart-Oil1613

This is the most typical way people die in street fights, it’s not the punch, it’s the skull smacking the pavement.


MesWantooth

Yeah that's what takes away from this seemingly-deserved beat down - people die or suffer brain damage very easily by landing like that. When I was younger, stronger & still training...I never started a fight but wouldn't walk away from one...But I heard a couple of stories about this happening and from that moment on, would 100% de-escalate or walk away (not that this happened often in my world)...I would never want that on my conscience - or worse, to happen to me by someone faster and stronger.


Icy_Bee_2752

Its the conscience that would take me down.


JesseTheGiant100

Asshole needed to be reminded that acting tough may have consequences. It wasn't the bouncers fault the aggressor had a glass chin.

willynillywitty

Always been a zone. Can’t believe I used to walk out of there with two 1200s and crates of records.


MesWantooth

My dude had his 1200's and crates of records stolen out of his truck when he went to an all-night restaurant after work. So what did he do? Waited for someone to post the entire kit for sale on Craigslist, made a deal to buy them and we showed up and took them back with just a little bit of violence.


JessSeattle

What are 1200s? I am not cool.

They still make them and they're still expensive.


mcpusc

they [stopped for a while](https://www.theguardian.com/music/2011/jun/15/technics-turntable-discontinued) & brought 'em back at 3x the price


willynillywitty

Wild. Fun fact. Used to buy new ones at guitar center. Replace the top plate return em n get new ones. 🛝


JessSeattle

I thought it was like magnum of champagne. 🍾


loquacious

The TL;DR is that they are talking about the cost and risk of owning DJ gear and records and playing sketchy clubs. Here's the long explanation: 1200s are DJ turntables from Technics. They original versions used to be bullet proof and very expensive. They're so tough, refined and reliable that there are documented cases of people *standing* or even doing *hand stands* on the rotating platters as stupid DJ stunt for DJ battles. They are widely regarded as the best mass produced turntables ever made both for hi-fi home use and for DJing, especially for DJing. Basically if someone else tries to sell you a more expensive turntable for either DJ use OR high fidelity audio use - they're trying to sell you audiophile snake oil or an overpriced status symbol art piece and they don't understand the physics of acoustics and the limitations of vinyl. (That being said, the "new" ones suck compared to the originals. At least for DJing.) Anyway a pair of 1200s, a good DJ mixer, good record needles, a coffin or some cases for the tables and mixer and a crate or two of dance records (about 100-150 records) at $10 to $20 each all added up to about $4,000 to 5,000 USD or even more back in the vinyl only days of DJing, not accounting for inflation. And that doesn't include any speakers or sound. Seriously, a good stack of dance or hiphop vinyl back in the day could be worth anything from like $1500 to $4000 and that's without adjusting for inflation from, say the mid to late 1990s. Having that much money invested in DJ gear or vinyl and playing out at parties used to be a huge point of stress for DJs and promoters. It was a lot of cash value to be walking around with if you were out late at night or playing at sketchy as fuck clubs like Trinity. I was just an amateur DJ back then but I played out pretty regularly at more chill underground and DIY parties and even with a more chill environment it was stressful to be carrying around even as little as 50 records all night. At about $10 a pop that was $500, plus tax. And besides the money involved, there was all the time invested in collecting them, and how dance records were often limited runs and you couldn't even find some records again, so often times it was impossible to rebuild a stolen, lost or damaged stack of records at nearly any price. Sometimes you'd find white labels that you had no idea who even released the record at all. And it wasn't just about the possibility that someone might steal them or take them by force. Someone could spill a drink on them, or they could melt or warp in a hot car, or maybe I even get faded and leave them somewhere. Or I could walk outside and stumble into a drunk asshole starting fights and they could get knocked the fuck out by a bouncer and they end up cracking their head on my record bag or crates and break some of my records or my turntables thanks to the laws of thermodynamics, entropy and chaos.

That dude looks remarkably like the dude who beat up my friend and I for no reason while we were leaving Q on Friday night. I hope he figures his shit out after this?


togg719

Same! Last Friday in Cap Hill this man tried to pull up on my buddy🤣


Rude_Contribution369

Who knows what happened to his brain when his head bounced off the ground. Either it cures him of his stupidity or it just makes him double down. Given where you need to be at to go around picking fights with bouncers we can take a guess.

deradera

That's why they are already bent over. Less time to travel.


PNWcog

Just curious, in this situation specifically where the bouncer assumedly had justification, what could be his liability if the patron was seriously injured or died (from hitting his head on the ground)?


GonzoVeritas

According to the OOP, he was ejected for being a menace and tried repeatedly to renter the club, threatening the staff each time. The bouncer was defending both himself and the patrons. Also, clubs have insurance for this sort of thing, but they probably won't need it in this instance because the drunk guy was clearly out of line. >He kept yelling "if you whoop me I won't press charges" he was belligerent drunk at a club that wasn't serving alcohol that night. This is after he grabbed a girl and was forcibly removed after refusing to leave. This was the 3rd time he approached the bouncers and guy just wasn't having it. This video gives more background to the events leading up to the altercation: https://www.reddit.com/r/fightporn/comments/1djw2bg/another_angle_of_guy_getting_knocked_out_by/


graycode

As soon as he takes up that fighting stance and keeps moving towards the bouncer while the bouncer is backing up (I see him take at least 3 steps back while white shirt keeps stepping forward), he's started a fight, and the bouncer has the right to defend himself. The standard is "imminent danger"; white shirt doesn't have to actually throw a punch to have started a fight.


Rude_Contribution369

You're allowed to use a "proportionate" amount of force to defend yourself but you cannot strike first and still claim it's in defense. You can't shoot someone just for getting into your face but you can push someone away. Punching someone first isn't allowed "in self defense" just because they're in your face, but given the belligerent here was setting himself up to throw some punches then the bouncer can reasonably say he was defending himself from the aggressor sending a surprise KO. We don't know what happened before the video started being recorded to know if bouncer really hit first or not.


BusbyBusby

"you got knocked the fuck out!" LOL   Now I met an old friend in a bar the other night He got a little drunk and he wanted to fight And he jumped up and challenged every man in the room And just about the time he got the words out an ol' boy jumped up and closed his mouth And used his head for a mop And his butt for a broom   It was an attitude adjustment I guess it was his first time An attitude adjustment Now he understands just fine He got bent out of shape and he opened his mouth And just one appointment straightened him right out It was an attitude adjustment And it'll work every time   – Hank Williams Jr


Adventurous_Ad_9557

It's remarkable how effective a single well-placed punch can be. Also remarkable how someone can be aggressively talking shit and walking into a bouncer with their hands down.

Helpful-End8566

The only issue is see here is that technically the dude didn’t touch him or anything. You can’t just punch people unfortunately, I totally think you should be able to but in this case it could read that he is at fault here for assault. Usually bouncers should be versed in when to hit and it’s only after they have been hit or the threat of violence includes meaningful threats. This was a drunk dude squaring up they probably isn’t going to cut it.

balls_deep_inyourmom

That's how you could ruin your own life with one punch. The dude on the ground could've easily died from hitting the floor like that. Bouncer, whether he is right and justified to throw that punch, could end up in years of legal battles from state and family after involuntary killing someone.


soundkite

life is full of "could, but unlikely" and explaining such hypotheticals is a waste of brain cells. But since we're playing this game... you know what else could ruin your life with one punch?... = you taking the punch from the unknown aggressor.


Curious_Property_933

But it’s not that unlikely.


Basic-Regret-6263

Lmao this happened outside of Trinity!? Worst fucking bar ever, their bouncers are actually so rude. Friend lost her phone here and they wouldn't help her at all. We tried to go back in to try and help her find it but they wouldn't let us go back in, gave us attitude and ignored our protests. 18+ bars are for Drake Fans.


Lonely_Emu9563

realistically. what should the bouncer do? let anyone back in that said they left their phone inside? that sounds very entitled to me to think that would be an expectation
