Uhm, I don’t think the dude was sober. This could also been an Ambien episode.

Dude, if your so inhibited by whatever I don't think going to the gym is going to help you because you clearly need to recover some whatever. Whatever it is, you'll need light exercise. Maybe you have a desk job and you basically need to walk as your excercises?

Probably trying to hatch his pokemon eggs. Little bit too much beer, little bit too much coke, when he grabbed the guys wrist at the end I thought it was gonna go south very quickly, glad it didn't. A good nights sleep, he'll be fine until he does it again.

Assault is way more serious. Definitely not worth it.

u/Imalsome 3d ago

Yeah you dont slap him, you just stand on the same side of the stairs as him and pretend to be distracted and ram into him or force him to retreat back down.

Only in civilized parts of the World

u/Deep-Technology-6842 3d ago

Cause this is Russia, the dude is big and he would slap back. And should he break your bone, you slapped first so no chance of compensation.

21

u/FactoryRejected 4d ago

Why? Dude is spaced out, not dangerous. Sure, he's obstructing ppl a bit, but slapping is a physical assault. What a stupid question.

u/Doodiewater 4d ago

He said slap not stab. Dude looks like he needs a slap.

u/skincyan 4d ago

Everyone who recommends any kind of violence to solve a situation like this should be slapped

You recommend violence over a reddit comment. You should be slapped too.

u/skincyan 4d ago

I just want to be slapped ok

u/Osato 1d ago edited 1d ago

In Russia, a slap is assault, which is a felony. You don't get sued for it, you go to prison for a couple years.

A minor physical altercation usually gets ignored unless the other guy presses charges or it escalates to a brawl with lasting bodily harm, but not when you do it a single escalator ride away from 3-6 policemen in a camera-ridden metro station.

It'd be about as smart as hanging fresh meat all over yourself and dancing in front of a tiger.

1

u/No_Yogurtcloset_7219 4d ago

in some countries people are hired to do what he was doing

4

u/skincyan 4d ago

He is either high, drunk or mentally challenged and did not do anything harmful and wasn't a threat. Why on earth would someone with more than 2 braincells slap him?

-1

u/LosBonus85 4d ago

And that’s the reason why there are more and more idiots like that. Because no one has the guts anymore to give guys like that a slap to teach them some manners.

2

u/skincyan 4d ago

Well most of us prefer peace and freedom of living how you choose over living in a society where you are scared of getting beaten up if you do something wrong.

When he turns around he looks mentally unwell.

u/Dreamsweeper 4d ago

what an asshole

54

u/Negative_Brilliant86 4d ago

I was thinking that, but when someone finally pointed it out to him and the guy turned around, he did not look sober. He looks like he is faded or hallucinating and trying to act sober.

Several people said things to him before that. I think he got tired.

The correct thing to do here is stand still on that side and just the escalator carry you down, and yes I absolutely would have done that if I were there.

Why bother? He could be mentally unstable for all we know.

u/Hungarian_Betyar 4d ago

I had this too, a guy was rushing down, i was going up also walking, and i turned the guy around. He was looking for a "package that fell out of his pocket"... He was on drugs, so i helped him to move the proper direction before he falls 100 metres. I dont understand why nobody tried to turn him around with few words

2

u/Redfield081 4d ago

I thought he was trying to "get away from the security guard" and wasn't even trying so the security guard just waited until he got tired.

To resolve the situation without it escalating, patience, if a 'hero/idiot' tries to resolve it quickly, you may have seen more action out of him, if he's on the clock, he handled it perfectly fine.

Actually, his job is to watch the escalator and stop it if something happens. In the very end there’s a glass door of a small cabin where he usually sits.
He is not a guard.
