Xinhua reports that 11 Foxconn employees in a plant in Yantai, Shandong province were injured after a drunken brawl on Thursday as part of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations. More than 300 people reportedly gathered to watch the fight.
What always unsettles me about these beatdowns is the moment the person with the upper hand sticks out a finger as if it's the long appendage of Death and holds it above the face of the fallen. How humiliating. How unbefitting a street champion. As if the slaps didn't already acutely communicate all that was necessary.
According to the video description, as brought to us by chinaSMACK, urban management officers in Qingdao, Shandong province attempted to demolish the guard room of a "military compound" on the afternoon of September 4. They were met with resistance, as guards and -- reportedly, though this is disputed -- actual soldiers came out looking for -- and getting; this part is not disputed -- a fight.
There's no info on this video except that this happened outside a Sina office and the combatants are chauffeurs, but it's a fight and we like it. There are some real sloppy overhead rights thrown by the man in the darker shirt though. What is he even thinking?
A furious woman delivered a bona fide whopping to a younger girl on the streets of Wuxi, Jiangsu province on August 29 around 8 pm. Hug China has this story via China Daily:
If you're not ready for a fight, don't start one. Don't, for instance, punch the guy sitting next to you on the subway, who happens to be younger, fitter, and more inspired, since he has a girl. The older man in this video, after sucker-punching the younger dude, eats about two dozen fists of rage. All the while, someone behind the camera implores, "Stop fighting, stop fighting."
There's no description to this QQ video titled "Candid: Everyone Beats On Each Other in Street Gutter," but it appears to be shot in China, and yeah, these guys are definitely fighting in the sewers. Who needs dignity, eh?
Shanghai subway, Line 8. These women's Shanghainese accents are much too thick for me to understand, but the younger lady, who appears to be the daughter of the woman in red, seems to accuse the woman in black of trying to squeeze into her mom's seat. A loud argument ensues, during which the woman in black shakes a wallet.
Human beings. We are capable of appreciating art and music, and splitting food bills between multiple people, and maybe even someday flying to Mars.
We are also fully capable of acting as stupid as a lizard, like this woman here.
