It's not a prank it's an assault. He touched her in a deliberate manner.
they should both report him and lock him up after the beat him
You saved me from writing simular message,someone will try it on and it could turnout worse,if we relax on pranks then these pranksters might do it for real or someone else might try it for robbery then getaway with it.
100%
Jab to the face, prankster has a broken nose to think over when he plans his next prank.
It's strange that she didn't react when he was reaching from across the other escalator even when he was already touching her she seemed not to have noticed it⁉️
Guy in grey instinctively protecting his woman.
Hats off and a round of applause for him 👏
I would have did the same. He's protecting his partner.
Well done Mr grey .
Yes
It's only his woman if he's married, which he probably isn't
His woman? Really?
Touching women on an escalator is not a prank! this needs to STOP
Touching anyone
Unwanted touching is actually considered assault in the US.
She didn't even notice.....la-la land.
Everyone has lost their sense of humour, lighten up
Stop it with your sexist comments, touching ANYONE like this should stop, not just women. I fucking hate all these sexist feminist jerks.
"It is a prank", used to disguise sexual harrassment, to disguise physical harrassment, to disguise dead threats, those are not pranks.
Agreed and I just want to remind everybody that some "entertainers" have been using that role as a shield for their crimes for a long time. In my country take the pdf file Jimmy Savile, as a prime example. I'm not directly comparing the two here, but the point is, Jimmy got away with his disgusting acts, most of his life by using his status as an entertainer.
Filming yourself committing an assault doesn’t make it a “prank”. STOP these TikTok crimes.
Exactly. This guy isn't a prankster - he's a pred ator "testing the waters!"
"Its a prank bro, its a prank". No, its not a prank, its making people think there is a threat. Well done to the boyfriend.
The prank is on the viewer, not the staged "victim"
"It's a prank" is just an idiots way of saying "I knew exactly what I was doing!"
It's admission of malice aforethought
@KR15ING Do people actually believe this was a real victim? Very sad that people can't tell the difference isn't it.
Really strange "prank"
Just give him a couple of "slight touches" to give him his asked for black eyes, and say :"It's a prank !"
Justified. Not sure why anyone would think that "it's a prank" would diffuse the situation either.
With me it would likely make the situation worse, discovering that the persons motivation to cause me annoyance was purely to entertain them, would make me pretty angry.
In their eyes we are just objects that they think they can use as entertainment, in my world I only take the piss out of people I know well enough and care about.
"Like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death
is the man who deceives his neighbor
and says, 'I am only joking!' " - Proverbs 26:18-19.
It's not a new problem.
BBB is massively over thinking this. Everything the guy in grey did was 100% legal and justified. It doesn’t take a barrister to get it.
@@stubones though there are some people won't get it.
Prank me and see what happens. You can’t kid a kidder..but you can prank a prankster🖕🏻
It’s not a prank, it’s bad behavior and they need to be taken down. Saying it’s a prank, is a cop out, and BS!
I fully agree.
The fact that the guy in gray laughed it off afterwards just gives them the OK to continue these types of pranks.
Yes that was a very wrong part of his response.
His adrenaline was probably surging, and he was thinking about what he might have to do next. I'm sure he was just relieved. And it was smart of him to handle it the way he did.
He's probably on his way to do his own prank.
She must have felt so let down!
It's like, the moment he saw he was on camera?!
If you're not friends with, or is a family member of the person you're "pranking," then it's just assault.
Anyone could use the excuse "it's a prank" to touch any woman or child. Justice was served nicely there.
Good point, getting caught taking a purse...oh, it was just a prank, I was gonna give it back.
Even so, I would have preferred the guy defending the woman to have maintained the seriousness of things. Smiling and going along with it is not helping.
Assault person. Do so on camera. Get caught? Say it was all a prank, because that makes it OK (!) Not caught? Get out fast, erase footage.
STOP .
“people who create their own drama deserve their own karma”.
If you don’t know your history then your life is a mystery..
Only a wanker becomes an online pranker
Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes
Exactly. That's what happened in Manchester airport 🤣
I like that one
Bloke reacted in exactly the right way.
Bloke did the right thing (caveat - so long as after the vid stops he made sure his GF was safe, followed the prankster down a dark alley, and properly kicked s--t out of him.)
The grey hoodie guy stopped too early, he should have neutralised the threat.
@@brianscott5008he did. He clearly felt the one in white was no longer a threat by his body language: after he'd pulled him over the handrail onto the floor and was between white and his, grey's, girl friend.
STOP
Reaction spot on, prankster was lucky this time
fax he even stuck to the lines aswell
He defended his woman in a split second! She should be proud of him.
I’m not sure him yelling I’m doing it for money would get him off a sexual assault charge. In my book, I would hold him for the police.
It’s a crime here. Touching a person without consent.
STOP!
As the Americans say, Ef around and find out. I think the man in grey had every right to be a lot angrier than he was, not to mention his girlfriend.
Surprised that girl was his “girlfriend”
Exactly ! What the HELL goes through those fools minds thinking they can just assault a stranger "for fun" and if the target defends themselves, its ok to just say, "oh it was a prank, bro !". NO ! You assaulted someone ! FAFO !
It's just like that guy who was "pranking" a delivery driver, and wouldn't stop harassing the man, so the man shot him. One of these days, they will "prank" the wrong person, and either the "prankster," or someone close to the offender, will be eliminated.
Yes I agree. No one has a right to touch anyone.
As the woman, I would have been much angrier. It’s so disrespectful and harmful in the long run.
A prank used to be something you did with your mates to another of your mates. Doing stuff in public to unsuspecting members of the public is not a prank. Like the lead on the escalator, I would treat it as an imminent threat and deal with it accordingly.
Have you not heard of tge TV show Candid Camera? They did stuff like this all the time.
@@neiloflongbeck5705 Not like this, physical pranks yes but they never attempted to touch anyone that would cause a partner to be aggressive
@MrkBO8 I was meaning pranking the unsuspecting members of the public.
I agree. Pranking your mates is fine but not strangers. I was never a fan of the pranking programs really either too be honest, not really my thing.
Exactly. Especially in the climate today.
the only difference between a prankster and a criminal is a court case, this gentleman did the right thing standing up for his rights and protecting the lady he is with
The bloke in white should be arrested for touching a woman without permission.
Lol, don't be so dramatic lol
Legally, it's assault. No touch, ya sickos!
Well done buddy! A real man doesn't tolerate stupidity about his couple.
There was a prankster in the US who was shoving a camera in a guys face. The guy felt threatened and shot him.
Based
Brilliant ! .
And was acquitted
Exactly right.
Bull shit, I have lost count of the number of times people have said get that camera out of my face when the camera is clearly external to the subjects face, I have never seen anyone actually shove a camera in a persons face, that never happens.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. The prankster got lucky that the other guy didnt lay into him.
He dragged him over like it was nothing, top man!
Because the guy in white half hopped over. All three people were in on it. The girl doesn’t even react to someone reaching out and touching her face.
@@Aelious- Would not surprise me, I've seen many similar staged stunts.
@@Aelious-so I’m not the only one to spot that 🥴 she didn’t even react it’s almost like she knew it was going to happen 😂
@@JackMcLeodJrhence why he was so easy to drag over
@@Aelious-I don't see any point where he pushed off with his feet to help the guy pull him over.
I'm sick of pranks. No one should EVER touch another person without consent. Anyone who defends another person in this kind of situation should receive a standing ovation.
This was settled in law years ago when a guy filming his pranks handcuffed a briefcase to a guy and started acting like it was a bomb, the guy beat the shit out of the prankster who was later arrested and fined for false imprisonment, harassment and being a public nuisance. There are now statutes against this kind of behavior in most states.
They think that saying "its just a prank" makes it ok and ends the conflict... it does not!
If anything, that statement deserves a second punch 😅
I agree with the guy in grey because that other moron could have had a knife. Yes it's a prank but it's not that funny. 😔. Nowadays you have to be prepared for the worst. 😔
Or a needle.
Calling it a prank isn't an excuse for unacceptable behaviour.
@@Brookspirit
Agreed.
If the guy in grey said "Yeah? Well so is this.
It's just a prank.
Do you find it funny?"
while giving him the beating of his life,
would the "prankster" be OK with that?
Social media should be prosecuted for monetising these videos. It is an incitement to further harrassment and intimidation.
Don't get me started. The things facebook should be prosecuted for... I get banned for the following sentence "because he has charisma" (in response to someone asking why everyone loves pedro pascal) - straight up banned for a week. Meanwhile you've got literally bricks of Class A drugs being advertised in videos, forged money, cloned credit cards, fake documents, driving license... the list goes on.
They NEVER remove this stuff. The fact is it's cheaper for them to pay a couple of million in fines when they get caught than employ actual humans to review content. It's a scandal.
What you say it's all OK. Unfortunately we have problem with your prof pic. Remove it or I will see you as a supporter of country of terrorism
It’s entertainment 🤦🏻♂️
@@iainburns4493 you'd have to be one sad bastard to be entertained by this low IQ bs.
@iainburns4493
>It’s entertainment 🤦🏻♂️
No. It’s criminal behavior.
"It's a prank" does NOT justify touching someone without their knowledge/consent. Hope it was worth his 72 clicks.
The "guy in gray" did not over react and did not panic. He used the power necessary to neutralize the threat! A classic case of "mess around and find out"! Well done "guy in gray!"
"Hey bro me knocking your teeth out was a prank. Chill out"
That's what l said!! Dude in white is lucky he's not missing teeth.
He wanted a reaction, HE GOT ONE!.😂
Moral of the story is...don't try to feel up women, whether prank or not. I'd give hoodie guy a medal for protecting the woman who he thought was being assaulted.
She was being assaulted.
Guy in grey did the right thing. Thank God for protective masculinity !
"Influencer" logic
Commit a crime
Face consequences
"Yo it's just a prank"
Expect to get away with anything
These pranksters should not be getting money for violating others!
And the way to stop that is to sue tik tok, youtube, etc, anybody who pays these people. They're contributing to the delinquency of minors, and filing criminal charges means they'll just pay a fine. Sue the hell out of them, and it becomes "financially unfeasible to promote pranks on strangers.
The RUclips gestapo are more concerned about hurty words!
If this is the behaviour encouraged by TikTok, then it should be shut down. If an assault is made for monetary reward, then that is an even bigger reason for shutting it down and prosecution. Well done, the guy in grey- brilliant and totally justified response.
Oddly enough it's not ,certainly in the past it was allowed to stay but TikTok has being banning accounts that repeatably offend recently. Instagram on the other hand has gone the other way and seemingly lost all interest in moderating , people have reported having game overs in their feeds.
This behaviour is totally been encouraged by tik tok. Just like the twats that go into supermarkets and pretend to slip and smash milk everywhere. Twats.
RUclips did it way before tiktok even existed. In that case you need to ban all video sharing platform.
Should have been shut down years ago. A weapon of mass destruction. Millions of brain deaths.
Regrettably, we are living in a society where the prevalence of narcissistic behavior is increasing. Social media platforms are continually fostering individuals who crave more and more attention, often leading them to label themselves as ‘influencers’ due to the shallow and often inappropriate content they create. It is disheartening to see humility and normalcy becoming scarce qualities among the newer generations. 🎉
Yes, social media has a lot to answer for.
He should be pranked to jail for assault. How dare he potentially traumatise anyone and say it was only fun. Disgusting behaviour.
The guy in white should have been treated in such a way that his revenue from the video would be needed to pay his hospital bills.
Serves the prankster right
He should have received a few knuckle butty's from the guy defending his lady friend and then said to him it was just a prank as he was being put in the ambulance, allegedly
They shouldn't be called pranksters. A prankster is a 7 year old putting a whoope cushion on someone's chair. Harrassing people isn't a prank.
They are not a prankster. They are a criminal.
About time too, the prankster had an immediate Code Brown moment
And count himself lucky it's not a Code Red one.
Exactly!
I believe that this particular prankster is prepared to be injured for his stupid job as that would get him exponentially more revenue. He is fairly confident because there are people in his team nearby to rescue him should things get too leary.
These ‘pranks” definitely need to STOP.
Only friends prank each other. Friends know and trust each other not to go too far with a prank.
Friends get to know and expect pranks to be done.
Doing this to random strangers isn’t a “prank”. It might well seem like a prank to the prankster but it’s(as demonstrated here) an attack on someone designed, in some way, at some level, to intimidate/humiliate them.
I’d say a proportional response from the guy defending his girlfriend from a perceived threat.
Even if he had punched him a couple of times I would still be on his side.
Where are the parents to teach some of these kids these things?
💯%
For decades / centuries - bullies have been "pranking" people for their own amusement but we've called it out for what it is, bullying / being an @rsehole, and more recently we've introduced various "Anti-Social Behaviour Orders" so that this type of behaviour can legally be punished.
Bullying is using someone else as a subject for your own amusement at their expense and causing them unhappiness. And it is even worse when it is for an audience, especially so if that audience is "The Entire Internet for the Rest of Time".
The behaviour is exactly the same. Trying to call it a "prank" now, doesn't change anything. They are negatively targeting an innocent member of the public and causing them distress.
@@bugnazbinnyking1198 well put
so much respect to the guy for holding back, keeping his emotions in check, staying calm, excellent inner strength
That fellow, after he was told it was a prank, took it much better than I would have.
The fact people are even entertaining the idea an assault can be a prank, is worrying.
We can thank the TikTok algorithm for egging it on and rewarding criminals.
TikTok and RUclips "pranksters" have zero comic ability/timing let alone know how to prank. Take a look at any iold Candid Camera stunts and you get the enormous idea of how talentless these idiots are.
In America thugs are randomly snatching phones, watches, hand bags and jewelry from unsuspecting people on the street. If i was the man in grey I would have thought the pimp was trying to steal a necklace. Good for him.
We used to call that mugging people.
It's not just America.....these idiots are everywhere.
I don't think you know what pimp means, there's nothing about that guy to imply he is one.
@@Vincent_Beers I was using it as a derogatory not to be literal.
Touching someone else without permission is assault, is it not?
Yes, it is.
It's pretty much the definition of assault.
I thought that was battery. You don’t even have to touch someone for it be an assault. Even a verbal threat of violence is assault.
Ofc it’s an assault
@infinitedissentno that’s not true. So stop misleading people.
@infinitedissent Assault is any action reasonably assessed to be designed to cause fear. Touching them is Battery, or physical assault.
Unfortunately, you’ve picked the wrong case to weigh in on, because there’s no going to be a context where a jury doesn’t view touching a stranger’s neck as a direct threat.
Somehow the phrase “it’s a prank” protects you from the consequences of harassing other people
In the US the prankster would be guilty of battery. If cops called the guy protecting his girl would not be pronounced guilty in any court.
Depends where in the US. In a commie state the guy in gray would be in jail and the prankster would sue him. In Texas (minus Austin) the guy in gray would be fine and the prankster in jail.
😂That’s funny, ypu must not be American (or just stupid), in many areas across the country the grey hoodie would 100% be locked up and charged.
He did the correct thing and neutralised the perceived threat. He remained a lot calmer than I would have. In this world we now live in, this needs to STOP.
Doesn't matter if the guy says its a prank, its not funny, its a borderline criminal offence and its sole purpose is for shock content to profit from
Did exactly what any decent guy would do.
So if he slapped the prankster across the face that would make the guy in grey not decent? These people need to be shown what consequence is.
Damn RIGHT!!
What any decent guy SHOULD do (most would wimp out and do nothing) 😢
Landing on escalator stairs after a fall has ALWAYS been a fear of mine.
Those are the hardest stairs you'll find.
😂😂😂
Prank guy wants to go hands on.
Guy in grey gives him all the hands 😂😂😂😂😂😂
" Love it when a Plan doesn't come together " - The F team 😂😂

What I don't understand is how this "prank" behaviour is monetised on TikTok. You can be banned for the slightest non orthodoxy comments, yet minor assault and other forms of interference is not just allowed but can earn money. It's perverse.
There's something very sinister behind it, like talking is worse than actions, ideology trumps actual harm.
Good on the guy in grey.
An admirable reaction.
The other one... obviously an immature childman.
I'm impressed the gentleman in grey was so restrained in his approach. He managed to neutralise the immediate threat and ensure the lady was safe and the other gentleman immobilised so everyone was safe without resorting to excessive force such as applying further blows whilst the man in white was on the ground. I think he acted appropriately and the man in white doing the prank was very lucky the gentleman in grey acted with such reasonable force.
Saying it’s a “prank” don’t make it ok. Just because you don’t intend to do lots of physical harm, and you “only” want to do something “small” for your own amusement does not mean the victim feels anything less than fearing the worst.
We shouldn’t even be debating this. Anyone going around with the deliberate intention of harassing and interfering with strangers and filming it for entertainment deserves whatever they get!
most kids would be in jail though if we followed this rule
@@coolrazer91 Then we need to build more jails
@@coolrazer91 That's a pretty low opinion of kids, not all kids are going around acting like complete twats!
Anyone who has seen that guy's videos has been waiting for that reaction for a LONG time
lucky he pranked someone who was reasonable. if this was anyone else he would have had a broken nose!
To touch someone like that is assault. Just calling it a prank doesn't make that go away.
If that prick touched my wife he would get a worse hiding than that and I'm over 60.
Even once he said it was a prank I wouldn't have stopped. That would have just caught me more fired up
One day that prankster could run into the wrong guy and it won’t end well
Yeah, of a different race
"Its a prank!"
"Oh, haha!" **the punching begins**
STOP - It's an invasion of privacy and ones personal space, surely?
No privacy in a public space.
@@longrolstral To look at but not to touch someone!
@@TheGazzadj That would be the personal space you mentioned, and intentional touching.
I think the whole thing was staged. Conveniently stopped escalator, with nobody else on their side of it. The woman not reacting with any sort of surprise nor shock, and just walked out of the camera view.
It wasn't "Panic Mode", it was DEFENSE MODE. Good on him, he did what he needed to do in the situation to protect the girl from a potentially situation.
Saying "It's a prank" after you did sexual assault is an online user's way of saying "I don't want to receive consequences for my actions!"
Reacts like a real man. Kudos to him! STOP these pranks. they are affecting the way we react to attacks!
The woman did not react at all so that suggests to me this was a complete set up. Why has no-one noticed this and only focussed on the two men?
Agree.
Trust me I noticed too. She didn’t even flinch. And looked like she even leaned over to make sure contact was made? Staged? I’m thinking maybe.
Exactly, I reckon the whole thing was a set up and it's us whose pranked
Or, she couldn't see who touched her and assumed it was the boyfriend from behind.
Not everyone flinches just from being touched, at least if you are with someone you trust.
Exactly. Watch all the other public ready watching for the incident before anything happens. Set up. Fake.
its not a prank he did it... 10 /10 to that guy for situational awareness and reaction time.. this sort of exposure will just encourage these pranks unless tiktok ban the videos
This is why stuff like this keep happening because after the prankster say its just a prank the person start laughing and what not its already ending up getting someone shot im all in favor of banning these types or taking away their money
Unwanted touching goes beyond pranking.
Looks fake, the girl herself doesn't react at all to it, if that was a stranger you would expect her to flinch away from such contact, but the only thing she does is move forward when he's being pulled over (& then turned back).
You may have a point...she doesn't react at all
My comment agreeing with you got deleted by RUclips for some reason and considered "hate speech" for literally just pointing out it's clearly staged. Weird.
@@fookoff9220
Yes I was going to say what is that w girl doing with those two but thought better of it ! OH NO I JUST DID ! .
@@pedanticperson1149 I had a similar thought.
It’s so hard these days to tell what is real and what is fake. Either way it’s still a good demonstration of self control and proportional response in self defence. To stop when there is no longer a threat.
If that's real I'm Santa 🧑🎄
the definition of fuck around and find out
My thoughts immediately.
I would ban Tik Tok and make them relive their pranks every hour of every day for life.
It's not just about threat, being disrespected alone, deserves worse than that
Guy in the grey should have slapped the prankster and said afterwards: "Hey, don't cry! it's just a prank!"
Prankster is lucky not to have a broken arm at least. Surely reaching over and intentionally touching someone's neck without any kind of prior consent as a premeditated way of getting a potentially violent reaction from the person's partner for clicks and revenue is still a form of common assault if it was in the Uk?
Fair play to the guy in grey. Protecting he’s girl. Well done young man.
I look forward to being pranked….and metering out the appropriate response..😆
The general rule of thumb in the States is that we are allowed to use enough force, including deadly force, to neutralize a threat. If the courts find that you used more force than was necessary, you can be held criminally liable. Also, the intent of the perpetrator is immaterial. The controlling factor is what the perception is of the person defending themselves or another person.
Two years ago at a big box store prankster doing "scare pranks.
Got an attitude adjustment after lunging at a woman with his hands raised.
Her husband made sure he was unconscious before he hit the floor.
I call BS. The girl didn't react at all to being touched or to the guy reacting with force behind her. I suspect they were all in the prank.
I agree. The guy in white had his leg up and over to aid being pulled over too
Probably right. Would explain why he the guy in grey “took it well” and why she didn’t react at all to any of it
I'm really surprised other people are thinking it's real, surely they see her non reaction, she isn't freaked out , she doesn't even react to him pulling him over the barrier.
It's fake
This was my first thought. Why didn’t the sharp eyed barrister consider this?
Agreed the initial response is to push away.....not to pull closer....so it was all choreograph....they are all in on it !!!
And what if a total setup with all three involved? Millions of views, a nice little earner? But point taken on legalities
Looks like a setup to me...she didn't react at all
If it was a setup then they are even more idiotic than I thought, it can be pretty dangerous to do that on an escalator.
Get something tangled up in it like the string from a hoodie, next thing you know your head will be making its way down the escalator without the rest of you.
Idiots if fake, idiots if not.. therefor, idiots.
That was my first thought. Nothing is real anymore.
💯%
Clearly. He gets pulled over the escalator way too easy.
The girl in the red coat's reaction wasn't normal for someone being attacked or assaulted - the whole things a set up in my view, purely for views.....
💯
My thoughts too 🤔
Exactly
It's a set up for more views.
The way she reacted was not normal , its like she was told to just stand there so they could set up the next bit.
100% set up and doesn't need to be spoken about , all it's done is created 18 million views for money.
I admire the guy protecting his girl. She will always feel safe.
Yeah the assaulter got off way too easy here. I have zero time for their BS.
plot twist, all three are in on the 'prank'
That's what I thought. That was not a natural reaction from the girl when the 'stranger' touches her neck. He was also pulled over that escalator hand rail too easily like it was planned and helped it happen. And to suddenly say "ah its a prank, that's ok then" then laugh about it again isn't normal behaviour if it genuinely was a prank on the couple by a stranger.
Great interpretation of how an irritating trend can escalate to violence I wish it would STOP.
Assault is still assault, even if you say it's a prank. Try doing that to a police officer
Not in Manchester
When dealing with TikTok "pranksters," NO amount of force is unreasonable.
If the guy in grey got charged with ANYTHING it's far more telling that our justice system has failed ALL OF US than it is of the guy in grey doing anything wrong!
That might be a Darwin Award application in a carry State.
Good reaction
He's very lucky he didn't get duffed up 😂
What this prankster did could be construed as assault. The BF had every right to protect her.
I LOVE the gentleman in grey, everyone who thinks this is funny is sad. These people need to be arrested for assault.
It's not funny, but the only assault according to the law was the fake reactor in grey
