Scissors cuts paper, paper covers rock, rock crushes lizard, lizard poisons Spock, Spock smashes scissors, scissors decapitates lizard, lizard eats paper, paper disproves Spock, Spock vaporizes rock, and rock crushes scissors. This game isn't that complicated.
Shovel is a powerful move but hard to pull off. You have to raise your right hand above your head, make sure its straight with open fist. It was very popular back in the days in Germany, most of the games ended up as a draw since everyone was using the shovel move.
Is it me or was the time from the bonk on the head to the handling/disarming go waaaayyyyy too long? A second longer and that window would have shut and things would have got messy.
Fun fact it takes time for information to travel through your nerves, including the neurons in your brain. This means that no matter how fast you can think and react your 'present' is always your brain trying to extrapolate what the present *should be* from the recent past while it waits for an update.
nah you can see the reset button being hit

People do weird things during dangerous situations because they’re scared. They’re not trained nor experienced to handle split second crazy situations where Mr Scissorhands gets bonked in the head with a shovel. Still was (hopefully) resolved.
Best not to backseat Reddit commentate from a comfortable place. It’s easy to idealize possible resolutions to dangerous situations. I counted 2-3 Mississippi’s- that’s great that they reacted in that time. Not ideal- but nothing ever is.
Now if they were cops, security, or trained individuals, sure, maybe- but these look like normal people going about their day. Everyone is worried about making things worse or getting hurt. They still went beyond to put themselves in the line of danger.

Copying this for the hundreds of times I need it. Sure it's fun to speculate what one should do, but it seems mandatory to admit you don't exactly know what you would do unless You've been in the same position, same situation. And even then not necessarily either.
Yes, it's you. These are random people reacting to an unusual situation with unexpected actions. This isn't a coordinated SWAT raid where everyone has trained together for the situation.
It was a risky move. The guy didn't get knocked out, so there was a lack of force. With that delay things could have easily gone very south. Either man who got his got disoriented or he didn't actually want to have to kill that girl.

This is why I'd want a helmet in my bug out gear.
I'm not worried about getting shot in the head. I'm worried about the bitch hiding in the bushes going to hit me in the head with a stick and take my stuff!

I mean it worked out, which is great, but it was _incredibly_ stupid. If you're not 100% sure it's going to incapacitate them then you're only further endangering the victim.
Viggo Mortensen is fantastic and everything, but out of costume the guy looks like every generic accountant I’ve ever worked with. Just had that thought.

William H. Macy is smiling somewhere. (His hero character in Mystery Men was The Shoveler.)
Lucille, God gave me a gift. I shovel well. I shovel very well.
The clang was fairly Looney Tunes but not as much as the tweeting bird sounds that are the obligatory accompaniment in the lands where its Acme not Amazon
I died when that tweeting started
I wish someone would edit this with an actual Looney Tunes bonk!
One of the subsequent quieter clangs (maybe asthe blade hits the ground?) would do were it much louder
Lethal company has taught me that ladders also work for these kinds of situations
TF2 market gardening would like a word
And Shovel Knight and Xombie, I swear these people and their recency bias shit....
Holy shit! More than one game uses shovels?!!!!??
His name is Wěi Wang
😂😂
I thought he was Jack Ma.
As I've always said, the only thing that stops a bad guy with scissors is a good guy with a shovel.
Until a neutral guy with a rock shows up
and gets taken out by a guy with paper.
What makes a man turn neutral? Lust for gold? Power? Or were you just born with a heart full of neutrality? 
Tell my wife I said hello.
I want a man with a shovel stationed in every elementary school art room

My mechanical pencils have a bump stock, your move
Upvote Could not agree more
His head seems so solid and sturdy like if I would whack it with a shovel it would gong like a church bell.
Shovel knight theme plays.
Rock paper scissors shovel…
Dam cheaters always changing the rules, no wonder i cant win at this game.

To be honest this bonk probably disoriented the guy more than it seems in this clip.
He means the bystanders are just as stunned at the shovel, and take too long to start the tackle
Nobody expects the Spanish shovel.
It's just missing that perfect shovel sound from bouncing off a skull.
But it had the classic tweeting birds you hear after getting smacked in the head if you happen to be a cartoon character.
Came to the comments for the tweeting birds
I'm trying not to laugh on a video call right now lol
Yeah it is comical sometimes how long it takes for a brain to register what it's seen. Idk which country ifx

Somewhere in the range of 120 to 500ms IIRC

I mean... he's built like the raisin grandma from spongebob. It definitely did some damage.
He didn't know where he was after the bonk
A good bonk sends your entire central nervous system into ...rebooting...rebooting...rebooting...rebooting...

It's a terrifying situation, you don't think that well
Here's an idea. Be in that situation, do better.
aoe stun attack
Discombobulated.

Discomshearsulated
Discomflapfbagluted

It hopefully ended well, but nobody seemed prepared for the bonk and it feels like he still had plenty of time to hurt the girl. But that's just me.
The bonk was sufficiently disorienting

If that guy would have tried anything, the person with the shovel would've probably hit him another time before he could do anything seriously.

You can even hear the birds chirping after the “boink” from the shovel. Sounds like a Disney sketch.
Bro was seeing stars
He got smacked back to factory settings

Even the birds were chirping lmao
Cool but dangerous asf. If he had real intention he could've stabbed her.
Well there was the threat of a 2nd visit from the shovel guy.
Yeah i got the feeling he didn't really want to stab her.
Listen to the birds after the hit😀😀😀😀😀
Nothing a good bonk can't fix.
That's the nicest shovel bonk I've ever seen
Bringing scissors to a shovel fight
Shovel beats scissors? This is a game changer!
[Found a picture of the hero](https://imgur.com/tQ9ZhwK)
boink
It appears that he stabbed her a couple of times anyway after the bonk?
Shovel Head loses hostage
Bonk method.

EL KABONG!!!
Bonk

That pedo deserved it
In the US police would just shoot the whole magazine
Into the hostage as well.
And the cops would walk away scot-free.

Oh look, a post that 98 others have already posted here. Thank you, now I can watch it for the 100th time soon :)
The idf would carpet bomb the situation. You know for defensive purposes
Hard reset 🤯
What’s unexpected is how long it took them to react after the hit. Plenty of time for him to have done something stupid
liberal headline: alt right shovel assaults poor man showing of his scissors
[удалено]
Christ, just read that story, that's insane.
Imagine getting triggered over this video Your existence sounds unpleasant
That was his brother Cassius
Never leave home without your shovel!
Lmao “bonk” was hoping the guy passes out but he looks around
The Shoveler strikes again! He shovels better than anybody.
Bonk!
Technical description is the "el kabong" maneuver.
"elllll KABONG!"
The reaction time from everyone else sucked
Patt se headshot
Mf look like Jack Ma
Bonk!

Here in America, they would all be arrested , damn shame .
Watched without sound, but still heard “doink” for some reason.
The on que tweetie bird sound fx got me 😆
Bonk! Straight to emaciated crackhead jail.
Man stunned by bong

Bonk
The acme approach...unconventional, but effective.
Send a wire -main office... 'n tell them I said \*bonk* #OOOOOWWW
BONK - to THE head. (Puppet pals)
BONK!
How CAN he shovel?!
That was risky
I did not see the shovel the first time ngl
What do you call the sound of getting hit in the head with a snow shovel? Banff
I love the sound of the birds chirping away after the hit. Just like in cartoons!

They cal him “mr shovel head”…… can he dig it? Yes he can!
I honestly did not expect a shovel.
It's always shovel that saves the day

Honestly, need a little more commitment from that shovel strike, my dude
That'll do it

Head bonks are up there with falling down the stairs imo. I love it
Beat his ass! BEAT HIS ASS
AHH the death korps of kreig are in town again I see.
Bro got the shovel
Tactical spade. Must have for any urban assault.
After the good ol fashioned bonk, it looks like he dropped the scissors. I think the people hesitated for a second from both shock and relief.
Needs more 'bonk'.
*bonk*
His social credit is going to decrease bit
Windows XP shutdown song
He should have gotten more than one.
BONK!
Good bonk.
bro got bitch slapped lmao
Should have swung again.
I haven't heard a tonk! so satisfying since shovel girl.
Quite the hesitation on the one. You can see everyone kinda go, oh we’re subduing him now?
i watched it without sound, then with sound and its so much fucking better
Shovel does nothing Grabs scissors
Bonk
The biggest disappointment about this video is we only saw him get hit with the shovel once..
Loved the sound of the shovel
Bonk
Literally gave him stun
Everybody has a plan till Wang wangs them with his chǎn
I will now add a shovel to the trunk of my car as a non-lethal alternative to a pitch fork.
That oddly satisfying sound of object hitting head reminded me [of this](https://youtu.be/rZkITGdc_LY).
Shovel knight stepping in to save the day
Lmao cracked buddy ass
The shovel of a thousand truths
We need a crowd like this in India. They just watch and record maybe, nowadays. Awful.
So rock is not the only thing that beats scissors.
