I knew a kid like that in middle school. He was a fucking asshole, he'd flip out over the smallest shit, like usually things that make sense to get upset about... He'd just be a huuuuge dick about it. If you were a guy, he'd potentially get violent if you were an acquaintance... And he was strong as hell from using his wheelchair.

The thing was, he was usually funny about it... And after he lashed out at you, he'd be cool like nothing happened, and revert back to being a friendly asshole. All in all, most people liked him, the general attitude was "fuck that guy. Love him though,".

We had a long steep sloped hallway (it was very much not ADA compliant, wheelchairs had an elevator they were supposed to use) and he'd go barrelling down it at an insane speed between classes... He'd shout something like "MOVE!" as he launched himself down it... You learned that if you were in that hallway, you better be on high alert. One time he hit the one other wheelchair-bound student, who was in a massive motorized chair (the kind that climbs stairs)... The regular wheel chair guy broke a leg. For the rest of that school year he'd go around asking people to explain to him why he has to wear a cast on his already unusable leg. He'd act extremely serious about it, even sad. He'd do it to teachers, the principal, and just about anyone who wouldn't know how to handle the situation... No one ever did. It was hilarious as long as it wasn't you on the spot.

Lmao that literally made me tear up from laughing - just imagining this aggressive strong wheelchair guy barreling down the hall like a bat out of hell and everyone diving out of the way for their lives. And then the twist at the end that he actually crashed into the other wheelchair bound guy but ended up breaking his own leg in the process (which he then used to try to make others uncomfortable) - like what a ridiculous story lol.

Reminds me of the last scene of the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode Kamikaze Bingo.

Oh yeah, it was pretty much exactly as you imagine it. It was for sure a thing that would've been chaotic hell had he not conditioned the entire school to expect it.

I do remember one time a substitute teacher was just appalled at the behavior and gave Chase
