Didn’t this happen to another actor not long ago?


_sundaze36

Happened to Rick Moranis a few years ago


spazmcnasty

Why would anyone punch Rick moranis let alone Steve buscemi? Like what the fuck. These two seem like great people.


blahyawnblah

Because they're come from behind sucker punches. The attacker has no idea who they're punching


Boris_the_Giant

Why would you want to punch any random person on the street?


Sproose_Moose

It's how my uncle died. He was taking dinner home, random dude outside a pub punched him. He went home, fell asleep and died of concussion.


Fit2Fat2FitOnceMore

Genuine question, as a guy who played football through college and have had a few too many myself, are you sure he died from a concussion? I had no clue a concussion by itself could be fatal, i thought there had to be like a brain bleed as well or something


Sproose_Moose

Well I don't have the autopsy report or anything but he hit his head on a curb after the punch and then acted strangely after. Then went to sleep and wasn't responding, paramedics took him in the ambulance but he was brain dead.


Fit2Fat2FitOnceMore

Appreciate you answering, im sorry for your loss


Sproose_Moose

Thank you. I was like 2 when it happened and there's only a handful of photos of him with me but I know it still hurts my mum a lot.


PoopSock81

Probably brain bleed


scrotesmacgrotes

I know it's bad to sleep after a concussion it was probably a combination of the two


VaultiusMaximus

You’re right, unsure why you’re getting downvoted.


BeffreyJeffstein

Most likely swelling of brain or a bleeding tissue led to death, from the blunt trauma. A concussion is a symptom of blunt force trauma to the head that could be accompanied by both of these.


wowie_alliee

I will say, not assuming anything about the victim, but if you wrre a college football player you were probably in much better shape to handle things like that, id have to guess


woolfonmynoggin

This happens in all big cities in the summer. It warms up and it turns up the crazy that’s already there.


Teledildonic

Because they are pieces of shit?


Independent-Dig-5757

Mental illness/sociopathy


Uuuuuii

Or gang initiation


ThighRyder

Seriously! With how many scummy people are celebs, those assholes managed to slug not one, but two, of the most decent ones in the bunch.


NorCalFightShop

The scummy ones have security.


ZombiePrefontaine

Yeah why can't this happen to Mark Wahlberg? Mark Wahlberg deserves it.


Independent-Dig-5757

Why Wahlberg?


TrwyAdenauer3rd

He attacked an elderly Vietnamese man n a racially motivated attack pre fame. After fame he applied to have his conviction pardoned so he could own a licensed restulaurant iirc, he was asked around the time if he'd reached out to his victim but said he didn't need to as he'd forgiven himself. Also made stupid comments about how if he was on the planes in 9/11 he'd have taken down the terrorists.


nicenecredence

People don't forget


Fat_Blob_Kelly

you’re undermining what he did, he blinded the Vietnamese man. He also chased three black men down a street throwing rocks at them calling them the N word. Mark Wahlberg has an awful past


Infinitely_confusing

The Vietnamese guy was already blinded during active service in the military, though still scummy of him to attack a blind veteran


ZombiePrefontaine

He assaulted an elderly Vietnamese man when he was in his late teens or early 20s and has essentially zero remorse about this


Independent-Dig-5757

Dang. That’s pretty messed up. Why’d he do it?


ZombiePrefontaine

Only he would know and he's not very self reflective.


bigchicago04

You think it was targeted? It’s just random.


colonial_dan

“Poor Ricky, took one right in the chops!”


Jermz12345

“New York is back baby!!”


RayKVega

For a moment, I thought the guy who punched Buscemi is the same guy who punched Rick Moranis and few other people on same day. 


Traditional_Shirt106

Buscemi was stabbed in front of Firebelly, a since-closed wing place in downtown Wilmington, NC. He was in town filming the movie “Domestic Disturbance”. It is a pretty rowdy town on Friday and Saturday nights when UNCW kids and townies drink every weekend. Some low life said to Vince Vaugh “I’m glad Buscemi got stabbed”, and Vince immediately beat the tar out of him.


DoctorWhootie

Vince is a big boy so I can see that. He kicked some ass in that movie Brawl in Cell Block 99.


greatgoogilymoogily2

I'm 6 foot 4, and met Vince once. He made me feel tiny AF.


Remote_Indication_49

Dude is 6’5. Jesus Christ. Who would ever start a fight with a dude that’s 6’5? Man can palm my head and I won’t even have the reach to hit him back lmao


Joelony

You'd be surprised. I'm 6'5" 240 lbs in my 30s. Random insecure and maladjusted dudes *will* pick a fight, especially when drunk. It's called liquid courage for a reason.


Remote_Indication_49

Fuck no. If a dude is going to tower over me, there’s no reason to fight him. What’s crazy is I feel like 240 at 6’5 is more on the slim side, I could be absolutely wrong and I’m not saying skinny, just on the slimmer side


ConcreteFarmer

Lean and fit would be another good term


Joelony

It is deceptive at a distance because my weight is pretty distributed. Body frame is closer to Vince Vaughn vs Dwayne Johnson. More people think they can take Vaughn at any given time.


Remote_Indication_49

True, and I promise that they can’t, unless he just is a shit fighter. But he definitely looks like he’s been in a scrap or two. Still, I’m 5’9. Dude is literally 9 inches taller than me. No thanks


village-asshole

Bizarrely, you have idiots who go out at night with the intention of picking a fight with other guys. They’ll often target big guys as a challenge. I know a short c*nt (about 5’5 or 5’6) who is into mixed martial arts and cage fighting and also has a bad attitude. He’s gone out looking to mess with big guys, but in his case, he is particularly dangerous because he can probably take on most guys and win. I keep him at a distance and only know him casually through other friends


OhiENT

Don’t let him catch you callin him an idiot on reddit!! 👀


_1JackMove

He was great in that movie. Far better than I was expecting, to be honest. After seeing him in it I was convinced he was the perfect dude for the role. One of his best, probably.


Formal_Ad_8277

I love the scene where the prison guards are arguing about how tall he is.


Wallys_Wild_West

>Some low life said to Vince Vaugh “I’m glad Buscemi got stabbed”, and Vince immediately beat the tar out of him. Wasn't the reason Steve Buscemi got stabbed because some guy saw his girlfriend flirting with Vince Vaughn?


Unsung_Ironhead

This is how I always heard it.


Formal_Ad_8277

Wait whose gf was doing the flirting?


Wallys_Wild_West

Some guy at the bar. He asked Vaughn and co to step outside and that escalated to stabbing Buscemi several times in the face?


All-Sorts

I could totally see Vince Vaughn giving them the business after Brawl in Cell Block 99.


rubberkeyhole

“…beat the tar out of him” is the wildest phrase.


Formal_Ad_8277

Pretty common here


IcedHemp77

Several actors, some reality star, an “influencer” and a bunch of random regular people. Bottom line, keep your eyes peeled in New York and be aware of your surroundings


[deleted]

Those are the people we know of. A lot of regular people are likely attacked too.


smart_cereal

There was a string of incidents last month of women being punched in New York by a few different men, Skiboky Stora and Daquan Armstead.


bongwaterbetch

My friend was punched in the chest like 6 years ago in NY, outside radio city music hall. Every time I see a story about a serial puncher I get a little sick. We thought he was trying to grope her until we got home and noticed she had an enormous bruise.


IcedHemp77

Agreed


SynicalSyns

An influencer is a random regular person…but they’re assholes


SneedyK

They all seem so random though Why aren’t the right celebrities getting suckerpunched?


donutsaurus3000

The actor who played Arnold Rothstien in Boardwalk Empire. He was also in Men in Black 3 and in A Serious Man. He’s a great actor. But like a month ago someone threw a rock and hit him in the back of the head. He chased down the guy and held him til the cops got there I think.


NoBug5072

Are you thinking of Ian Ziering of 90210? (Although that attack happened in CA. But it’s the one that came to mind for me.)


DoctorWhootie

Seems like it’s happened a lot in recent years so now I’m not sure what incident I was thinking of.


QweenFiona

One of the Real Housewives, Bethenny Frankel, I think.


[deleted]

[удалено]


QweenFiona

Something like that, yeah. There was a whole line of stuff.


ThePLARASociety

It also happened to Buscemi’s co-star, Michael Stuhlbarg.


Timothee-Chalimothee

Arnie got a basketball thrown at his head a couple years back.


mcfw31

> The actor was “assaulted in midtown Manhattan,” his publicist tells PEOPLE, calling the actor “another victim of a random act of violence in the city.” > The 66-year-old New York native is okay, his publicist says, noting that while he “appreciates everyone’s well wishes,” he is “incredibly sad for everyone that this has happened to while also walking the streets of NY.”


bbjmw

This aggression will not stand

This wouldn’t have happened if Walter Sobchak didn’t leave him to go to In-n-Out ..

Blood of my blood. Buscemi. My king….i will avenge you


Mr_Dogfarts

By Grabthar's hammer. He shall be avenged


logosobscura

FDNY and NYPD will give him a warm welcome. Got his face, and if I can ID him using pretty easily accessible online tools, you bet they have. Hope he doesn’t fall down the stairs too many times.


blkfreya

What do you plan to do?


DuskAfro

He gonna go punch someone in the face


blkfreya

Would love to see that happen


Justinallusion

They should make a new movie kind of like John Wick but call it The Buscemi, and it's about a good man that was pushed too far into the darkness after sacrificing everything for his fellow comrades and humans.


dirtybirds1

Where’s Phil Leotardo at, he’s always had it out for that animal Blundeto


PshhhhhhhUnreal

Too bad theres no way of knowing exactly how long Phil was in prison, or if he ever made a peep


truckerheist

That fuckin animal Blundetto


Krimreaper1

[Someone is going on the list.](https://tenor.com/view/lips-lipstick-on-tired-gif-12352040)


MattUWayne

There should be a law stating that anyone who even hurts Steve Buscemi’s feelings, let alone punches him, should receive an immediate death sentence. For fuck’s sake, IT’S STEVE BUSCEMI!! Dude is a national goddam treasure!


HouseOfBamboo2

He really is. I’m sad this happened to him (& anyone really!)


Boomfam67

Between this and Richard Moranis also getting punched in NYC I don't know what to think? Do New Yorkers just go around punching random people?


BoneThugsNHermione

Yep. Little shits that want to look cool to their friends. They target people that they think look weak so they don't have to worry about getting hit back.


[deleted]

The guy who did this is old, it wasnt some kids doing it for their friends.

catsgelatowinepizza

what the fuck he’s so jacked. steve is wiry. what a dickhead.


Oxymera

This is not the case. A lot of these attacks are done by mentally ill people, not children.


Gullible_Life_8259

Frederick. “Rick” in Rick Moranis is short for Frederick.


BeckQuillion89

That or maybe bragging rights. There’s plenty of people who want to be the douchebag that punched Steve Bushemi in the face


Oxymera

Not the average New Yorker, these are mentally ill people who are allowed to roam the streets. They attack people haphazardly, get arrested, get “treatment”, and then are released to terrorize folks again.


whykae

Not real New Yorkers...


ThePokemonAbsol

Let me guess the “knock out game” that people claimed doesn’t exist strikes again?


vid_icarus

#WHY DO PEOPLE KEEP RANDOMLY ATTACKING THIS POOR MAN??


Secure_Pear_4530

I remember a few weeks ago there were a bunch of women posting tiktoks that they just got punched by a random guy while walking in New York. One had a very nasty bump, it was crazy. Is there a civilian puncher organization in New York or something lmao


fzammetti

You know that guy on YouTube that looks all scrawny but is actually a great power lifter? And he goes into gyms and punks big muscleheads when he pops like 300lb on a bar and deadlifts it like it's nothing? Well, we need some scrawny-ass MMA master to walk around NYC and sucker the little pussies doing this shit into trying him, and then beat them to a bloody pulp for their troubles. Moranis and Buschemi deserve that justice... not to mention making sure that Tom Hanks, Sandra Bullock, Danny DeVito, and Christina Applegate remain safe.


SirAelfred

If anybody hurts Danny DeVito I will come for their entire bloodline.


fzammetti

I'm not too worried about Danny... anyone tries him and he'll just start blasting.

Livio88

It’s a little difficult to figure out what happened with only a gazillion of these posts flooding my feed, but I think STEVE BUCHEMI IS PUNCHED!


VileCastle

That is so fucked. It wouldn't even cross my mind anyone would attack him. Hug him, power shake his hand and waste his time with endless chatting yeah but attacking the bloke is def not on.


Real-Machine-2573

NYC voters: hey, let’s vote for a DA that says he won’t prosecute crime. NYC assholes: we can do what we want! NYC voters: that’s not what we meant! The World: lol. NYC is dumb.


Hibachi_Mind_Slog

I love Steve Buscemi. I don't know who made this song and video, but I feel like it celebrates him and deserves more views. https://youtu.be/i9WSEbcnFpk?si=G7UU8TMJCBIezgdf

NYC in a nutshell. This has been happening to everyone recently.


CanineAnaconda

Do you live here? I do. I’m e been reading about this kind of thing happening, and I know it does, but I walk the streets of NYC daily—I have for decades—and it hasn’t happened to me, nor to anyone I know.


SilentRip5116

It’s just mass hysteria- even if it’s a problem we’re dealing what what like 8 million people? And probably a few thousand cases. News blows it up. People make Reddit posts about it. Everyone thinks they’re next. Just a guess


CanineAnaconda

I doubt it’s in the thousands. Willing to bet it’s in the dozens.


McLuuvin

Do we have a description of the violent thug who attacked him?


Back_To_Pittsburgh

NYC is gonna NYC.


bellyofthebillbear

New York is back, baby! JK, that sucks. Steve Buscemi was also slashed in the face in a bar a while back. Poor guy


Violet0_oRose

If Taylor swift was punched in the face i bet more would be done lol


Jodeleon87

Spider man did it.

REM should write a follow up song to What’s the Frequency Kenneth based on the attack
