I've watched this video all morning and it still puts a smile on my face...

Background: The two bullies are practicing the fine art of 'happy slapping' in which they randomly slap a passerby, usually one weaker than them, and have another person video tape it. See what happens next....

Not that they didn't deserve it, but the "boxer" overstepped it quite a bit...one good shot to the slapper would have been enough.

This guy was much more restrained but quite effective...

I don't know for fact, but I am calling staged on that first vid...Even in high speed it looked weird. Then slow mo and the hits that sent the guys flying, didn't even connect......

If true then awsome, but I call shinanagins.

Hey, Farva! What's that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit and the walls, and the, uh, mozzarella sticks?

Huh? They kept on getting up and approaching him. Notice when the guy stayed down he just walked right past him.

Picked the wrong guy to mess with. The two 'bullies' didn't even look like they knew how to fight.

As they say, "Know your opponent". Never know what you're getting yourself into.

Good points...but why go after both of them?

In any case, now that I have looked at this a few more times, I think it was staged as well. If even a few of those punches had really connected, the "slappers" would not have been able to get up so easily.

I still like the other video better...one shot and the bad guy's left staggering...
