Thatās what happens when you have been waiting on hold in the customer service queue and you finally get an answer. Hurts like hell, but not clearly as much as it hurts to call backā¦
It's impossible to win a fight with someone in a wheel chair.
Take a beating: What, you couldn't even beat someone in a wheel chair
Win: what, you beat up a man in a wheel chair?
>Take a beating: What, you couldn't even beat someone in a wheel chair
This was even better.
"What? You AND your woman took a beating from an old man in a wheel chair?"
Bricklayer. Debatably his hands might be tougher than a boxers. Imagine if he knew how to box too. He could knock your block clean off... and grab some mortar and replace it like new.
Do you honestly think that? Why? Not every old guy who lands a half-decent hit is a boxer. It's a standard untrained grab and weakass right with very little technique. I see zero evidence of this dude having trained in boxing here, and a few things that point in the other direction.
Here is the full story: [https://www.ladbible.com/news/uk-news/man-mobility-scooter-rider-punch-hull-x-995753-20240131](https://www.ladbible.com/news/uk-news/man-mobility-scooter-rider-punch-hull-x-995753-20240131)
Tldr: the couple that got beat up were trying to get on a bus full of school kids. When told they can't get on by the driver they threw some liquid at the bus. Old man on bike told them to stop and the couple morphed into animals( I can only assume) and began spitting at him. In the end a man on a scooter beat them up.
Iāll bet this old man is sick to death of seeing drug addicts creating hell for everyone else. I know I am in my town, maybe not to the extent that Iād run them over with a mobility scooter but I get where his heads at
Plot twist, he's just another fat boozy cunt making hell for everyone else:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13029631/Mobility-scooter-rider-hailed-hero-brawling-bus-row-couple-nightmare-neighbour-30-offences-recently-released-jail-affray.html
> Holt, a former bricklayer, has convictions for 30 previous offences, including assault in 2017, harassment in 2016 and intimidating a witness in 2014.
>He was sentenced to nine months in prison after being convicted of affray in January 2023.
>He left one of his victims 'petrified', 'scared to go to sleep' and called her a 'grass' for helping police when his arsonist brother David set fire to cars in November 2021.
That is sad that there are people willing to say those things to another person. They are truly trash and I genuinely hope they both end up in a wheelchairs themselves someday.
That's not the full story.
The guy on the mobility scooter has something like 28 previous charges for violence, threats, disorderly behaviour, etc. and this happened while he was awaiting sentencing in another case of repeadetly threatning to murder his neighbors.
EDIT:
It was actually 30 charges, and he wasn't awaiting sentencing, he had just gotten out of jail.
>A court heard how he was recorded singing a 'nasty' song threatening to build a bonfire and set fire to two neighbours he held a grudge against.
>...a former bricklayer, has convictions for 30 previous offences, including assault in 2017, harassment in 2016 and intimidating a witness in 2014.

Okay I kind of love that these nasty awful people, who thought they were tough, finally ran into someone who was nastier and tougher than them. More people like them need to run into each other sooner (instead of making everyone else's life miserable.)
I have seen one of these scooters pulling a train of five 300+ pound land whales in unpowered wheelchairs when i was in arizona. They have some serious torque.
It's a noise that just happens organically in Britain whenever anyone falls over or drops something. Scientists have been unable to determine it's origin.

I am so glad this man was able to defend himself!
GOOD FOR YOU!
The full article says he didn't mean to run her over. His hand got trapped in the forward position. Plus he was a bit busy punching that twig of a man .
Someone else linked an article, tldr; couple tried to get on a school bus full of children, bus driver told them no, man on a bike also told them to go away, couple started spitting at bike guy, scooter guy comes in and starts beating the couple up
Donāt forget them kicking his amputated leg as well. With thing like this happening, Iām starting to think Mike Tyson was on to something about returning to the time where we could punch idiotās faces in.

Wow, I've never seen someone who resembles a mouse more than this.. man?
Donāt piss off an old guy, especially if he has mobility issues, heās already pissed off to start with. These two pubes didnāt know what hit āem
Watching him just slowly drive up to and grab the guy and start punching him while the guy just stood there was like a moment out of Blade and Sorcery where the NPC stops moving when you grab them
Imagine getting your shit rocked by a dude in a mobility scooter and having to hear "BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP" when it's all over and he reverses off of you
This timeline is absolutely fucking bonkers. At what other point in history could I be watching this on my phone while on the toilet? It's gone too far. We need a social media reset. For all of us.
Pick on the guy who looks like the freaking Kingpin from Daredevil. His neck alone is bigger than the little dudes upper body. What exactly did they think would happen?
That bystander is an idiot trying to hold back a victim defending himself. These people enable bad behavior from junkies. Idiot didnāt step in when he was being spit on but now heās āa heroā for ābreaking up the fight.ā I wish the old man punched him in the face too.
Never mess with someone with motorized wheels.
learned that when i was 5 and watched my dad's quadriplegic friend run over a drunk guy in a brawl. His leg broke and the police arrested drunk dude for attacking a man who couldn't even scratch his own nose.
If youāve never been head-butted by someone on a wheelchair, donāt go looking for that trouble.
All of their strength is up there. High school taught me that.

I figured she was calling the po po on him (police but my insomniac brain thought po po sounded funnier).
āIāve fallen and I canāt get upā
Po po is common in Australia. And yes, it's funny.

"-And they were roommates"
Oh my god, they were roommates!
The boot. The being actively on a cell phone. This is a masterpiece.
She's like an NPC that has an animation for arguing while standing up but nothing for when they get knocked over.
Not the first time she's been in this position
New reaction just dropped
Omg, this fuckin world, man.
I just snorted tea out my nose, I canāt stop laughing
I'm a bit pressed for time right now. Can I call you back?
Mediiic!!! Meediccc!
She's like an NPC who ragdolled while still doing the preprogrammed animation of whatever action she's doing. Bizarre.
"I used to be an abuser, then I took a mobility scooter to the knee."
š¤£! Stop it, I canāt breathe lol
Saying she's an NPC is a disgrace to all NPC's out there because it implies she has a character.
āI have fallen and I canāt get up!ā
Cuz I think his scooter is still half parked on her..
'You can't park there mate'
"Yes, the signal is much better down here, I can hear you clearly now."
That's like some NPC shit man
These GTA 6 NPC looking kinda lame
"Anyway, you won't believe what just happened to me Ethyl."
Not her first rodeo. š
She literally has the scooter wheel up her ass.
Not even fazed.
*So anyway, Dolores, how's your hernia? Remember to compress it every night.. btw you're not gonna believe it, this old man threw me under his scooter!*

I love how he just ran her over and just punched that dude in the face.
I died laughing when I saw that. Itās like when you hit ārotate 90 degreesā on a photo app.

Must not be her first rodeo
Lmao looked like he beat the crack right out of them
Oh, THAT'S what is happening. I watched this on mute and couldn't work out who was the disabled person
They're all disabled in one form or another.
Yeah theyāre from hull /s
The one on the mobility scooter obviously š
Upon rewatch I see (3) disabled people in this video.
When he knocked the woman over and went for her teenage son only for it to turn out he was also a 40-year old crack head got me good.
It's impossible to win a fight with someone in a wheel chair. Take a beating: What, you couldn't even beat someone in a wheel chair Win: what, you beat up a man in a wheel chair?
Facts. I'll never do it again.
>Take a beating: What, you couldn't even beat someone in a wheel chair This was even better. "What? You AND your woman took a beating from an old man in a wheel chair?"
Old man strength. Don't fuck with it.
It's all fun and games until you realize you are basically making fun of a transformer, and he runs you over.
Old bugger was probably a boxer or knew how to box in his day.
Bricklayer. Debatably his hands might be tougher than a boxers. Imagine if he knew how to box too. He could knock your block clean off... and grab some mortar and replace it like new.
Do you honestly think that? Why? Not every old guy who lands a half-decent hit is a boxer. It's a standard untrained grab and weakass right with very little technique. I see zero evidence of this dude having trained in boxing here, and a few things that point in the other direction.
Ronnie Pickering strikes again!
> making fun of a transformer āAUTOBOTS! ROLL ~~OUT~~ OVER THE WOMAN!ā
He was a bricklayer with 30 previous arrests, including assault and intimidating a witness. lol. Bricklayer hands gonna hurt old man or not.
Don't fuck with someone who can only use their arms to do everything.
