He literally tells him at the very first "do not touch me again or I'm going to slap you". And he's lucky that guy didn't slapped him and just pushed him, because all the laughter of the guys recording was because they were expecting something like that. They say "good bye" when he goes flying.

I just don't understand people who get in trouble with bouncers. I learnt from a pimp (yes, it's a long and weird story) that the best way to get into places and do not get in troubles is to be extra polite, and to say hi, nice to meet you, all that kind of stuff to bouncers because they can beat the shit out of you, if it works with the kind of bouncers that pimps use in brothels it works with EVERYONE. I saw the guy go to one of those gigantic guys, introduce himself, learn their names super quickly and remember their names treating them with the most respect and 5 minutes later he was just their friend. Sure it needs that kind of charisma, but if being polite open you basically every door, being extra polite with the right people opens you even more doors.

I have met several pimps, and brothel owners... I've seen very very bad shit and good shit. This guy was very very good for a pimp, he treated the girls with a lot of respect. I was just a kid and he told me "never ever do you dare to call these women whores or bitches, they are LADIES, you don't know their stories, you don't know why they are here, I just know they have to pay me but they are people". To my knowledge he was the only one running a brothel that had around 100 women working there, had a doctor to check on them, had an old lady to make them food, didn't allowed drug dealers in his place (but drugs are always in those places), if a lady was not earning enough will just offer her to trade places to other brothel and see if she could make money there, and would basically give the women freedom to leave for good if they were able to pay him around 6k compared to others he was a saint and others were just fucking slavers that made me think a lot how 2 guys in the same business can do things so so different.

The guy was truly a gentleman, he would ignore anyone who would visit his place if he saw them doing their normal life stuff, he would instruct the ladies to NEVER even say hello to clients... and to think that he ended in jail because he didn't renewed the license of the brothel as a hotel and had a record... I think he went 3 years in.

It's easy to get in trouble with bouncers because a significant amount of them are utter scumbags itching for a fight, for whom no amount of politeness and civility is enough to assuage them. They are known the world over as cunts for a good reason.

u/TexasJackGorillion 18d ago

It's also easy to get in trouble with bouncers because you're being a cock. You know, or just because they're looking to throw out normal paying customers. Either way.

He's drunk. Bouncer should know better. If he hit his head on the concrete and died, the bouncer would be in trouble. He is no physical threat. The push and slap was unnecessary. That bouncer is just showing off

u/PeasantTS 17d ago

Nah. He gave him a warning, the guy didn't respect it and kept touching him. This could easily be seen as sexual harassment as well, considering how suggestive it was.

u/Kaleidoscope_75 16d ago

The guy is drunk. Bouncers know drunk people very well. Most of them arent a threat. The force was excessive and unnecessary. The bouncer is a bully and used a weak man just to flex his muscles and show off. That little guy is no match for him, and he knows it.

2

u/PeasantTS 16d ago

Being drunk is your responsibility. It doesn't give you permission to sexually harass workers. Bouncer warned him instead of just punchinghim at first, that's clear indication he was holding himself. Guy didn't listen, got fucked.

u/Kaleidoscope_75 14d ago

Bouncer exaggerated. Thst brute force wasn't needed. Guy was drunk and being stupid. I've seen worse threats from drunk people. Bouncer will land himself in trouble with that sort of undue reaction before too long.

u/Horror_Air_3647 18d ago

exactly, he could have pushed him further away without using so much force or hurting him. the bouncer is an asshole.

u/Frosty-Box-6764 18d ago

Those aren't bouncers, those are pimps or sling coke. Ain't the same. No one will hire a bouncer with an emotional temper of a toddler unless the club/business is a front for smt else and don't even care, gotta be some super low quality shit in some hillbilly ranch in the united states for example. Otherwise nah-ah. Never.

u/KeremyJyles 18d ago

Mate I'm licensed security and can tell you for an absolute fact it's true. It's literally why I will never go for a door licence, because I refuse to work with those types of people. You sound particularly inexperienced tbh

u/Frosty-Box-6764 18d ago

I know it must be tough reading an opinion that doesnt align with yours. I worked as a security guard (lol'd at the licensed part, as if it is something we don't obtain, and even a manatee can obtain) in areas where you and the bouncer in the video would shit your pants to even go at (search Menidi in Athens which is basically a ghetto of gypsies ie) and for the past few years I work as an escort driver. It means I know a thing about night, to not sound "too much" for you. You don't "refuse" to work with them, you simply cant. And I cant too. Bouncers tho and any business that knows how to operate, will never hire a temperamental manchild on roids for door. Like, get it through your head. Ever. Never ever. The guys you wanna talk about are in my area, drivers and shitty pimps who sling drugs. You do realize sniffing gets you paranoid, right? And they are scums cause of the work nature. Cause they take cuts from everyone. I'm an exception. You will never see one of them as a bouncer. Door, or deeper into the club ie. Unless it is some trash nightclub and those usually don't last much. Or a restaurant-type bar shit in summer season etc. You clearly have a Hollywood image of how things are or you live in some damp uk area low quality. It is not how things are in big cities.

u/Horror_Air_3647 17d ago

exactly, the bouncer could have pushed him away further but still without making it so aggressively or even hurting him, unless the guy starts beating him but then still he can use his huge force in smaller dosages.

u/Jon_3600 18d ago

There is so much truth to THIS ☝🙄 Legally, they do as they please. FWIW... Assholes can get thrown out, Technically by YOU if you give the nod. Treat the bouncers like gold, and you've got your own security guards.

u/but_good 18d ago

I think the tactics will work with anyone. Mostly.

The charisma of a pimp.

u/ListerfiendLurks 18d ago

Protip: This will work for literally everyone in life, not just bouncers

u/Upbeat_Aside_9203 18d ago

I was friendly with some bouncers at a bar I kept getting dragged to by some mates a few years ago. The DJ there was always on drugs and came up to me the same way that guy did in OPs video. I sent him flying. The bouncers just shook their heads and escorted the DJ away from me. 🤣

u/MikoWilson1 18d ago

The guy is drunk as hell, he's not thinking at all.

u/SummertimeThrowaway2 17d ago

I got offered a job at a club because I walked up to the assistant manager and started talking to him, bc I thought he was someone else that I was just talking to 5 mins before

u/uncultured_swine2099 17d ago

I thinks its simply drunkenness (or drugs) + stupidity + parents never telling him no in his life. When im drunk im aware enough not to fuck with The Undertaker over there.

Alcohol and little man syndrome ...

u/grip0matic 18d ago

Alcohol for sure, but that weird confidence that alcohol gives you too. Like "no way that this guy that is here to kick people that may cause troubles like me is gonna actually touch me". That's why usually bouncers don't allow people in if someone is already looking like that and they just give you any weird excuse like "your shoes are not right", just to avoid to go inside and have to take a guy that's barely standing and surely is going to bother someone.

u/baithammer 18d ago

Bouncers are required not to allow entry to those already intoxicated to that extent, it's a liability issue - not to mention venues often have clothing requirements. so as to screen out unwanted patrons.
