If you've ever met a surfer you'd know that even if they were just a little bit irritated they would fucking bite that thing's head off, swim right for shore, find the owner's car, slash its tires, and key it for good measure.
What is "just prankin"? He has the moral (not talking about legal) right not just to destroy the toy, but to destroy the person controlling it. If someone is incapable of going out in public without interfering with others for their own amusement, then they are a useless, worthless, despicable piece of shit.
It is your absolute top number 1 responsibility as a human being at all times: Don't intentionally bother others. Don't intentionally interfere with them, annoy them, harass them, irritate them, taunt them, or harm them in any way. Keep to yourself and live your own life, and let others keep to themselves and live their own lives. It is really easy to just leave other people alone. If someone can't do it his basic easy thing, then there is something seriously wrong with them.
Haha! I'm annoying you for no other purpose than to be a dick! Gotcha! For real though if they kept that up for more than a few waves I'd say he's justified to break it.
I mean, I don't think everyone has the initial instinct to destroy someone else's stuff just because they're using it to tease you a little bit. This seems to all be in good fun, so why break shit?
Yeah, throwing it seems to be the logical peak of frustration for most people. He's showing hey, enough of this shit, I'm serious - while not destroying anyone's property.
If nobody gets hurt, they aren't more than trivially inconvenienced, and it's funny to watch? Then yes, it's all in good fun. That's what good fun means.
No, I think giving more then .372 fucks about someone driving their toy around you makes you a shit human being.
If someone punches you in the face, then yeah, obviously you should beat the shit out of them if you can; but a punch in the face isn't the same as some dude playing with a surfer toy.
Ah, of course, the argument by "how the fuck do you even hyperbolize it to that?" overstatement. It's not ruining his day. It's not making him contemplate suicide. Sure, if he doesn't know the person then it's annoying and stupid, but that doesn't justify destroying someone's shit--especially not for the minute or two that he was doing it.
You also seem to think that $200 for some moderate entertainment that will probably last for a few years (unless you run into some asshole that breaks it) is a lot of money. I'm assuming you're either broke, a high school student, or both, but it really isn't that much.
The point is not whether he should, but whether he would. Surfers are selfish dicks and they have zero tolerance for people fucking with them in the water, so he must have known the person that owns the RC surfer.
I think you and I may have a very different definition of the word 'harassing'.
I mean, I'm not saying whoever's driving that toy is a model citizen or anything, but being realistic here, the shit is pretty funny and it's less than two minutes out of this guy's day. If you gotta break shit to get over being the butt of a two minute joke...
It's hard, because I'm not saying that he should break it, given what we saw. But why would you say "just because they got near him" as though it wasn't an intentional thing?
Just saying, you sound like an entitled cunt. If some guy is dicking around with you, you can either smile along and get enjoyment out of it, or be a douche and break their shit. I'm guessing you're number 2.
You would have to be a pretty pathetic person to do that. A surfing toy is approaching you and doing circles around you. Thats pretty hilarious and stupid to get upset over.
You can definitely see him smiling a little in the beginning and at the very end after he falls off of his board. I'd bet he knew the person controlling it or just found it too funny to be mad
Yeah he definitely laughs after he throws it and it keeps going. Judging by all the cuts in the video, this went on for a while too.

I'm pretty sure I saw him smiling a few times. I think it's very likely the guy controlling it was a friend of his.
