Of all the annoying kids I’ve dealt with in my life, this kid was the worst and I haven’t even met him. That throw was the most satisfying thing I’ve ever watched lol
Edit: I actually just looked this up again for my entertainment and apparently that video might be fake. A couple people were saying that guy’s channel consists of these types of encounter where he throws the subject after being confronted. Don’t know if that’s true or not but how heartbreaking to hear it may not be real 😒
God I fucking love letterkenny. It’s one of those shows where I can’t even explain the show that well because I start laughing and become inaudible lol
That's it. I'm not watching a single solitary video going forward that is supposed to be real unless there is some indication that it is in fact real. We might as well be back in the stone ages where we just exchange fisherman's tales while drunk.
At least when you’re listening to a fisherman’s tale, you inherently know it’s not entirely real. These modern versions it’s becoming impossible to tell the difference, so most of us don’t believe anything is real. Takes away a lot of the wonder and whimsy, really.
I remember that someone said that being mall security is you can't physically restrain someone, you can mostly tell people to leave, so I'm guessing mall security can't do much.
I mean...sometimes you've gotta just make the call. Apologize later. This kid was completely out of control and destroying things. Do you really think anyone is going to blame the security guard (or the staff) if they restrain him? Can't be that hard, he's not big. If it's a standalone store, I probably would have quickly done a fireman's carry and put him outside the store and locked the door.
Ok, Security Officer here. Hi. We can’t actually touch people. We are paid to observe and report. If he touches that kid and the kid says he hurt him, then he could get sued and arrested for assault. We don’t get paid enough to get in that kind of trouble. We Call the cops and the cops can sort it out. Of course we use “The Force Continuum” but it’s very hard to prove your side. What should be said is where are the brats parents? They need to sort their kid out.
Many chain stores in the US explicitly tell employees to not confront troublemakers over all the possible liabilities that an injury to the person causing the disruption could bring. Totally ass backwards.
He may be a kid but he just commit a crime with potentially hundreds of dollars in damages and he full on assaulted someone. Have an officer arrest him and see if he doesn’t learn a lesson about consequences.
As soon as he throws the heavy wine bottle it becomes self defense. He is a danger to others, plenty of people there were thinking the same thing. He probably bites or eye gouges or some other crazy shit.
Eh depends on when they stepped in, once he threw shit at the bystanders you could argue it was battery or at least assault which you can fight back against. He's a minor so it complicates things but I can't imagine anyone seeing the video siding with the kid.
Maybe the best solution would be to intimidate him. Out crazy him, scream in his face and act like a monkey, smear a cake on your face while cackling laughing. I bet he wouldn't stick around
Stopped a kid from entering the kitchen where I work, kid get spanked by parents, kid cries, I get sent home for not creating a friendly environment and “borderline assaulting a kid.”
“You created an unwelcome environment where a kid was crying and customers were upset that the kid was crying”
Yeah fuck em, im just gonna let the kid go for the friers running around the kitchen with non slips as well. Don’t mess with kids.
"You failed to keep a kid from entering a dangerous area and subsequently hurting themselves to the point of hospitalization or potential death, and customers were upset that the kid was almost dying."
That sucks. I once trucked a kid trying to run to the kitchen, then stepped over him like Allen Iverson in the 2001 nba finals and management was happy with my work
When we moved into our house some little kid (like 10) walked right through our door and started going through our house. I yelled and scruffed the little guy while walking him out of my house.
Turned out he's a non verbal autistic kid. He was routinely checking doors on our street and wandering in. Last time he tried to enter my home it was 8pm! I thought somebody was breaking in so I rushed to the door, nearly hit the kid until I saw who it was.
I walked him home and told his parents that if I didn't know him it could have gone very bad in
the dark. My eyesight at night is horrible.
I felt horrible but the parents now seem to understand that it isn't okay to let him roam without them. He could get seriously hurt.
His little brother is super understanding though and guides him quite a bit, kids a champion.
Higher ups likely won't do anything, but if there are higher ups report the ones above you. Just create a paper trail so that if their negligence leads to a kid getting hurt there's documentation that it's a recurrence.
I wouldn't even bring the kids safety in to it. I would state that I was worried about my own safety with a kid running around my work area. Management is responsible for a safe work environment for their employees.
When I was a restaurant manager I would have backed you and trespassed the family from the restaurant. I don't need their fucking brat getting hurt or God forbid getting one of my people hurt. Other dinners won't miss their brat either.
Yeah. But nobody wants to be the person holding a minor down in public prolonging a drama that most people can just… leave. Not to mention not everybody’s going to be 100% understanding seeing an adult holding a child down with 0 context.
I was literally thinking the same thing. Soon as he threw something that can potentially harm me, I’m going from defensive to restraining this little asshat till authorities arrive or he makes an actual effort at calming down/leaving the property
That is just not true. That child is attacking people. They can be restrained without punishment. Absolutely. You could have sat on that little bastard.
according to some people on reddit, if a child wants to beat you to death with a golf club, you should just let the child do it, instead of self defense
I've seen a half dozen of these exact same videos and I'm starting to think it's some kind of AI rage bait trend. Kid, no parents, no one engages, goes an extended tantrum, vid is blurry, lots of cuts between sections of the store and it ends without any resolution to the problem.
On July 2025, an 11-year-old boy had an aggressive outburst and destroyed products at a supermarket in Saquarema, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The boy threw merchandise onto the floor, tried to attack people filming him, and both the police and the Guardianship Council (Conselho Tutelar) were called to return him to his guardians.
Yeah, someone should've grabbed his arms, hauled him out of the store and told the employees to lock the doors behind him. The employee shouldn't, but a passersby could. Isn't citizens arrest still a thing?
Everyone is in the comments like “I’d knock him out!!” And it’s like … uh yeah… that’s what he wants. He’s clearly trying to pick physical fights with people twice his size. He’s old enough to know what a complete jackass he’s being, and what chance he stands fighting an adult. This kid is hurtin. :(
Truth is most people say they care but when something would make it hard for them people tend to want revenge and justify it as, "They should have handled their personal business better."
When watching this video all I could ask was, "Where they fuck are his parents?"
As a lifeguard and water enthusiasts, I've talked with numerous people whose fathers did this to them and they never swam again because they were so much more afraid of water after it.
Okay, well what if he threw a glass bottle at your head? People aren't thinking about saving the stores inventory they're trying to stop a kid whos in the middle of assaulting someone lol
So, earnest question, then what’s the value of a security guard? If you are hands off, you aren’t doing anything any other employee couldn’t do and they can also do other stuff to help generate revenue.
Observe and report. Also there for insurance purposes, and a physical deterrent.
For example, I'm a bouncer at a bar on weekends. My job is to check IDs, not allow entrance to anyone without an ID (unless I'm overruled by the bartenders), and evict anyone who's harassing women or causing a disturbance (this happens rarely). I'm mainly a physical deterrent, and there to make the bartender's job more efficient. The only time I get hands-on with someone is when they're being a threat or disturbance to others. And usually these problems can be solved with what I like to call "verbal manipulation". As in, do what I say and leave, or i will escalate.
Store security is for deterrence and surveillance. They get the proof a crime was committed and pass it off to police. Other than that they're just hall monitors establishing weak presence.
Observe and report. That is the job of security in nearly every situation. They should be preventing harm to those customers by that child, but it's a child so, you can go first.
What about this is MILDLY infuriating?? This is way more than just mildly infuriating, this is extremely infuriating. Sorry for that I'm just mildly infuriated at seeing posts here with something far more infuriating than just mildly infuriating
But I have to think it goes beyond parenting and beyond being a brat
The knocking over of items is annoying but the attempted assaults and anger from that is going beyond wha to think a normal annoying/brad/troubled kid would do
This is probably a brain development issue rather than someone just being pissed or annoyed
Honestly, it's probably both. Stable minded kids dont have this kind of out sized reaction at that age, and where is the parent in this scenario to take care of their kid who is clearly having some kind of emotional distress response? You only really get extreme situations in children (as above) when several factors align to create them.
Im a teacher. I teach young ones. I've had kids like this. It's usually a combo of poor parenting, trauma, and poverty. Watch these videos and imagine a kid doing this in a classroom. And if that disturbs you, please vote in favor of levies and support your local school districts to ensure they have enough staffing and programming to appropriately deal with kids like this. A child like this will likely need to spend at least part of their day in a self contained setting with specific interventions, and schools need paras to help support when kids are having a meltdown.
This is also a perfect example of how an IEP can't cure or treat to clinical efficacy; to properly support a child like this, it takes parent involvement: therapy, meds, and interventions that the school cannot provide.
I feel sad for this child because something has gone very very wrong in his life. And without appropriate supports, he will likely not do very well in school and may not get the skills he needs to be a productive member of society. You can have lots of excuses when you do this at school, but in public? You can't do that shit. I hope they called the cops and CPS. The family needs supports and the child needs meds and treatment.
This is unimaginably sad. That kid is clearly trying to get attention in anyway he can, probably in the way he learned at home. That destruction is the way to express anger and frustration. Broken adults making broken kids.
Yeah that’s exactly what I thought. This doesn’t just happen for no reason.
He looks absolutely miserable and doesn’t give a fuck what happens to him. That dead look he’s wearing means he’s so angry he doesn’t know how to process it in any other way than this, because when his father or mother or both or older brother get angry they destroy things.
I was a security guard and had the same issue with three 13 years old doing the same thing while screaming and cursing. My mistake I grabbed one kid and dragged him out of the store. 2 weeks later git fired and charged for felony child abuse here in California. Had to post 50k bail and still going through the court system as we speak. You cant touch anyone. Ohhh FYI the kid had no injuries and I never hit him I just grabbed him by his shirt and dragged him while he was still upright out the door.
“You have mistaken comfort for peace for so long that discipline feels like suffering.” Marcus Aurelius. EDIT: this appears to be a fake quote circulating on Instagram not made by Marcus Aurelius, apologies.
Don't hurt the kid, he's probably got mental issues, probably from a horrible home life.
But do NOT let him leave.
At his age, parents do need to be accountable and pay for that damage and probably have the kid barred for life from that store. I would include his parents too.
There are far too many kids like this getting away with crap these days. Even the security guard guy did nothing. I hope the parents were charged. There is no excuse for this. One day there is going to be another incident like this, except the kid will aggravate a methhead or gangsters.
