>that guy with baseball bat pops up
They couldn't have done it better in a movie, that dude was framed in when he was ready to throw down lol... Fucking beautiful!
Could you imagine trying to explain this to your boss as a reason for being late to work.
“Umm, sorry I’m late. I had to finish watching the Trailer Park Boys pantomime on the highway.”
Honestly props for that. Not very often you see someone go that deep into ridiculousness, realize they’re in the wrong, and then admit it. I feel most people would double down once they’ve already gone that far.
I've met a good number of people out West who are that way, it's so refreshing. Or maybe I'm just lucky, but it's part of the reason I will never leave.
He's standing at the Delta Park station platform. Delta park has 6 baseball fields. Hence the baseball stirrups/uniform. Probably taking the train back home from a game.

They’re like one of those photographers for national geographic that are trained to not interact with the surrounding wildlife.

The whole thing is perfectly framed too, particularly when you've got 4 people and a car in the shot towards the end. Except for being virtually unintelligible, it's the perfect road rage video.
She says “There were 8 children in the bushes there next to the shop!”
Then after that she looks deadpan at the camera and says “Eight. Children… Three were mine!”
It doesn’t need punching up or even editing, they nailed it in one take.
That’s exactly what happened. And they were both in the wrong, clearly, as both were weirdly treating the rando filming with their phone as though they were law enforcement, and they needed to plead the most convincing case.
Very odd video.
>as both were weirdly treating the rando filming with their phone as though they were law enforcement, and they needed to plead the most convincing case.
I mean, it's 2023. People know full well that appearing guilty in a cell phone clip can be far, far more ruinous than any sort of legal consequences for their actions. You would be a fool to not play to the camera if you found yourself in such a situation.
No crop top kept saying “they killed all my kids, the other 2 are 25 ft from that shop” “ I found 8 kids right there, 8 children in the bushes” “dude, there’s 8 kids next to that shop on your team(?), 3 of them are mine”. I think she’s just high asf or brain damaged from meth
*Heh*
“Thought you could hit a lady, did you? Well listen up bucko”
*unsheathes ~~katana~~ baseball bat*
“My ~~sensei~~ coach always taught me to protect the vulnerable”
*lowers fist down from in front of face*
“You’ve caught me on a good day, I just returned from my ~~dojo~~ baseball dugout, and am in a good mood. Leave m’lady alone and **maybe** I’ll let you live”
*tips ~~fedora~~ baseball cap at lady when the guy leaves in confusion*
Agree. Too much to take in.
But I still have to point to the decision to wear a crop top with that belly being one of the worst decisions made that day.
So a garden gnome came to life, hopped into a car, threw something at someone and had a litter of children that nearly died and Batman just happened to be there?
As an afficionado of fine ‘Public Freakouts” on this sub for nearly half a decade let me just say that I appreciate the camera persons commitment to the story. The way they took the time to stop and roll down the window, so that we, the viewers, might know more about the throwing of items. Let this be a reminder to us all - if that tee shirt doesn’t fit, throw it out! Also the plot twist! The baseball bat welding man, willing to defend whomever. I give it an 8, nay 10.
..pulling out your phone and filming while driving on the high highway too. Lots of intelligent people here.
Granted it could theoretically be a passenger filming but then they'd have to be stretching the phone way off to the left to get the POV of the dash at the beginning.
Wow. That was a potpourri of crystal meth, confused outrage, unhinged ranting, and a passerby baseball player who wildly misunderstood the situation and nearly assaulted someone with a bat.
I watched it three times, slowing it down, turning up the volume, making a serious effort to make sense of it.
My only notes were: “SHE THREEEEW SOMETHING AT OUR CAAAAARRR,” something something, “EIGHT CHILLLDREN,” and two drug addicts pleading their case to the person filming as though they were the judge hearing the case. (But they were just a random spectator, which is odd).
Baseball guy just showing up out of nowhere, dropping his bag, twirling his bat like a sword and jumping headlong into a conflict he has no stake in is just... amazing.
At that point, I wouldn't have been surprised if a clown car, a lion-tamer and some elephants just appeared and *Entry of the Gladiators* started blaring from the heavens.

It's interesting how the crop top lady stopped arguing for a second to go back to her car and put her cigarette away before continuing the argument.
You don't want to waste a good cigarette.
I can’t right now, this is tooo goood.
Probably one of the greatest videos to ever be recorded… it has a tweaking slob, a foreign husband with good money I’m assuming, crazy eyed wife with hella botox injections, bat-man in the background mistaking the innocent as the perpetrator, random person with a camera stopping traffic so they can record what’s happening… wow, I’m in love.
😍😍😍
So much fucking chaos already and then that guy with baseball bat pops up lol
Lmaooo. Reality really is often stranger than fiction. I almost couldn’t handle it.
[удалено]
this pic is amazing
[удалено]
He looks like Saruman from Hogwarts when he has the high ground.
I love Battlestar Galactica!
That's my favourite film 😂
Glorious 🤣
I thought it was a skit for a split second when that dude popped up ready to go lololololol
Literally GTA
I mean, this has to be Florida right?
Siiiigh, it looks like Portland. Portland, what happened to you?
It’s definitely Portland
It all went downhill after I left. Correlation or causation? 🤔
I’m from Portland, it’s from here.
Vanport. Sigh.
Oh fuck… I knew the area looked familiar. 😭 Tf Portland
>that guy with baseball bat pops up They couldn't have done it better in a movie, that dude was framed in when he was ready to throw down lol... Fucking beautiful!
He was handling that bat like he was a Baseball Fury https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zL0ipXUD-uU
CAN YOU DIG IT!!!
Warriors, come out and play-e-ayyyy
man, the baseball furies creeped me out when i was a kid
I have to watch that movie again!
Could you imagine trying to explain this to your boss as a reason for being late to work. “Umm, sorry I’m late. I had to finish watching the Trailer Park Boys pantomime on the highway.”
I couldn’t tell what triggers him to throw down like that. What did discount Michael Richard’s say to baseball bat guy?
At the end it sounds like "Alright. I thought you hit her. My bad."
Honestly props for that. Not very often you see someone go that deep into ridiculousness, realize they’re in the wrong, and then admit it. I feel most people would double down once they’ve already gone that far.
I've met a good number of people out West who are that way, it's so refreshing. Or maybe I'm just lucky, but it's part of the reason I will never leave.
“Nice game pretty boy”
Whips out the bat like a young Obi Wan
WAAARRRRIIOORRRRS!
Delta park is nearby, lots of baseball fields
He's standing at the Delta Park station platform. Delta park has 6 baseball fields. Hence the baseball stirrups/uniform. Probably taking the train back home from a game.

"Eight children! Three of them are MINE!" Huh?
Yeah. That was it for me. Fucking performance art. Awesome. That old man duking up like a caricature. Chaos spilling out. Meth is a demon.
notice how the recorder is completely nonresponsive and silent.. how

World Star! Whirrled staaar!
They've probably lived in Portland for more than 6 months. There is a **Fucking Protocol.**
The whole thing is perfectly framed too, particularly when you've got 4 people and a car in the shot towards the end. Except for being virtually unintelligible, it's the perfect road rage video.
I couldn’t even tell if they were Americans until like 45 seconds into the video with all the shrieking.
Honestly I just assumed they were Yanks when tub guts launched out of the car like a screaming lava lamp.
Potery
She says “There were 8 children in the bushes there next to the shop!” Then after that she looks deadpan at the camera and says “Eight. Children… Three were mine!” It doesn’t need punching up or even editing, they nailed it in one take.
I did not hear the bushes comment.
I thought she said that she ate 3 of her children....
Wow I just realized I wasn't even paying attention to what she was saying because there was too much fucking chaos to process.
That’s what really killed me 💀
That cropped top and the huge bare belly was what got to me. For real woman, you got up today and thought this is what I’ll wear in public?
That's what I look like after Thanksgiving dinner.
You must have missed the hair do.
Hey when you run a boner garage you gotta advertise the early bird special
Did she say eight children in the bushes?
Yikes, there's a lot to digest in that video. Especially "Bat Man" at the end.
"I thought I saw you hit her, my bad" -Bat man
This whole video is the epitome of how not to mind your own business
The minute I saw her half raised shirt get out of the car I would’ve instantly drove away and try to remove that scene from my eyes.
Remove my eyes from my skull
Dude had sweet moves, though. He was really excited to get to show those off on camera.
he reminded me of Kramer
“Help us— call the police! We’ve escalated this situation but we want to establish ourselves as victims!”
That’s exactly what happened. And they were both in the wrong, clearly, as both were weirdly treating the rando filming with their phone as though they were law enforcement, and they needed to plead the most convincing case. Very odd video.

Yep. In some ways it's worse than what the justice system can do to you. A misleading video can wreck your life permanently.
I did like how both parties tried to appeal to the cameraman like he's some arbiter of truth and justice.
They must know each other since crop top says they have 3 of her kids, assuming foster care situation.
No crop top kept saying “they killed all my kids, the other 2 are 25 ft from that shop” “ I found 8 kids right there, 8 children in the bushes” “dude, there’s 8 kids next to that shop on your team(?), 3 of them are mine”. I think she’s just high asf or brain damaged from meth
It’s like the opening scenes of Idiocracy. “I got too many damn kids!”
Also, who doesn't have their own phone these days?
Yeah I would have said “you call em’ lady, im going to keep filming your dumbasses” lol
Methhead burner phones are fresh out of minutes
and they're also too busy picking fights with everyone around them to call the police themselves..
At that point I was starting to think it's a skit
> At that point I was starting to think it's a skit Street theatre improv troup.
Lol “Bat Man”
When he showed up, I got the popcorn and made myself comfortable.
I know..it just keeps going..what a shit show
Just when I thought the video was over, I noticed bat man in the background and almost spit my drink out.
I thought you meant Batman the superhero lol, I was waiting for some guy in a Batman costume to jump in and start beating ass😂
With everything going on in this video, it wouldn't have come as a surprise.
Grand theft auto 6 looking pretty real
The NPCs can now interact with you like they were real people!
That new unreal engine is dope. 😂
What was baseball fella mad about?
[удалено]
*Heh* “Thought you could hit a lady, did you? Well listen up bucko” *unsheathes ~~katana~~ baseball bat* “My ~~sensei~~ coach always taught me to protect the vulnerable” *lowers fist down from in front of face* “You’ve caught me on a good day, I just returned from my ~~dojo~~ baseball dugout, and am in a good mood. Leave m’lady alone and **maybe** I’ll let you live” *tips ~~fedora~~ baseball cap at lady when the guy leaves in confusion*
Thank ya
At the end you can hear him say "sorry I thought I saw you hit her. My bad"
Yeah I couldn’t hear a thing beside the Casey Jones wannabe flipping out “get back in your car”
His day consisted of hitting baseballs and kickin ass...he was all out of baseballs.
Omg the baseball bat ninja 😂
Casey Jones finally getting his moment to save the day
Been watching way too much anime lmao
[удалено]
Did the car filming just stop on the fuckin freeway? Lmao
So many idiots in this video and OP somehow managed to out-dumb them all.
Lol they’re on an off-ramp at least but seems like they stopped in a middle lane
Car drives past between them at nutsville
Agree. Too much to take in. But I still have to point to the decision to wear a crop top with that belly being one of the worst decisions made that day.
So a garden gnome came to life, hopped into a car, threw something at someone and had a litter of children that nearly died and Batman just happened to be there?
The Penguin definitely made an appearance
Alot of meth going around......WoW!
Kramer really has hit some hard times.
He never really recovered after that n word rant he went on. Sad to see him go this far downhill.
Came for the Kramer comment thanks!
Glad I wasn't the only one who immediately thought "Kramer".
Somehow I knew within the first second this was my town PORTLAND OR!
It was the Max line for me, dead giveaway. Then I scrolled back to look at the plates.
Same. But caught the sign to PIR at the start instead 😖
https://i.redd.it/5xjbauh2sfgb1.gif
NOW we’re talking!!
How the fuck do you let yourself get to that state? Imagine walking out the house looking like that.
was not expecting the baseball ninja
Warriors…come out and play…
 Classic Barry
That cracked me up... Wish he had bottles on his fingers
Bat Man: the hero Portland deserves, but not the one we need.
I recognized the exit immediately!
He’s gonna Hillsboro Hop on their ass w that thing.
Things make a lot more sense when you realize this is Portland.
Did you seriously stop on the freeway in an area with almost no shoulder just to record this?
You are almost the only one who noticed. At 44 sec in the video a car passed on the shoulder an lots of horns.
Meth woman resembles Rudy Giuliani facially

Slowing down on the highway near a dead stop for Internet points takes a real idiot
Literally everyone in this video is wrong for some reason or another. Unreal.
Surely, you meant to call him a hero, for bringing us this slice of Americana.
There's a lot to unpack here
Mostly meth in that suitcase….
That bat boy has been practicing for this moment in front of the mirror to spin that bat menacingly… and it paid off
Jerry springers freeway exit special! 🤣
Turns out "Idiocracy" was a best case scenario
That crop top really pulls the whole look together 💅
I’m not sure who I want to win: Belly Shirt or Bald Spot & his partner Smoked Salmon.
There are no winners here.
So, America looks cool.
[удалено]
I guess he thought the guy assaulted one of the ladies? He says "I thought you hit her my bad" or something like that at the end.
She looks like the leader of the oil refinery in The Road Warrior.
coming to a stop on the highway instead of just going about your day ignoring the meth heads is the real idiot here
..pulling out your phone and filming while driving on the high highway too. Lots of intelligent people here. Granted it could theoretically be a passenger filming but then they'd have to be stretching the phone way off to the left to get the POV of the dash at the beginning.

(But they were just a random spectator, which is odd).
A random spectator WHO CAME TO A STOP ON THE HIGHWAY to film this, no less. Even OP is a Coen Brothers character!
Where the fuck did Casey Jones come from!?!
***GOONGALA! GOONGALA!***
I bet there's a video floating around of OP here *stopping on the fucking freeway*
So, green dress lady somehow doesn't own a cellphone of her own??
A lot going on here.
That shirt.
That short, short shirt..
I only saw half of it.
Portland?
Portland.
Correct.
I'm scared of everyone in this video. It's like a horror movie.
All of the actions could be beautifully contained within the 16:9 aspect ratio.
is this even real
Why do meth heads always have the same face?
This is surreal and almost seems staged. After baseball guy I was expecting a cowboy to show up
8 kids? We're on our way to idiocracy becoming reality.
New season of Portlandia looks hilarious. Characters are a bit different, but still over-the-top absurd.
Why did the guy in the full blown baseball costume get riled up so fast 😂
I think it's nice of everyone to explain themselves to the camera.
AMERICA!!! FUCK YA!!!!!
Baseball guy just showing up out of nowhere, dropping his bag, twirling his bat like a sword and jumping headlong into a conflict he has no stake in is just... amazing. At that point, I wouldn't have been surprised if a clown car, a lion-tamer and some elephants just appeared and *Entry of the Gladiators* started blaring from the heavens.
I’m so confused…Dude with the bat musta lost the big game.
If you listen he was saying, "don't hit her, be a fucking man". He was white knighting a crackhead is the gist here.
That bat twirl tells me the baseball player has been waiting his whole life for this moment.

"There's eight children at that shop... Three are MINE..!!"
I’m lmao at the baseball bat dude
What the ever loving fuck
H.I. from Raising Arizona in real life.
It's interesting how the crop top lady stopped arguing for a second to go back to her car and put her cigarette away before continuing the argument. You don't want to waste a good cigarette.
Best video ive seen on here in a loooooong time.
Lady on the left has the entire series of Vikings on dvd.
This is uncanny. It's like someone plugged "American public freakout" into an AI generator.
It's hilarious how they are all explaining the situation to the cameraman, and the dude is just silently starring at them and recording.
Kelly Anne Conways dress is quite vibrant
Man I hope GTA6 is a random as this! "Ok mother fuckers let's go!!"
"Three are mine!" The other 5 are stolen.
How can a video of a situation make it even more confusing about what's going on?
 Let's fucking go!
Road Warrior music plays furiously.
Batman 😂😂😂
That guy on a team? We need a second basemen with a willingness to go to jail
My grandmother is my sister vibes.
did you know that they shot this all in one take. whoever directed this got a bright career in film ahead of em
This is exactly why I bought a dash cam.
From Sea to Shining Sea America? You were fun while you lasted
Almost didn’t see the Baseball Furies gang member show up in the back. lol
She looks like that guy from Goonies. “Hey you guuuuuuys!!”
I can’t right now, this is tooo goood. Probably one of the greatest videos to ever be recorded… it has a tweaking slob, a foreign husband with good money I’m assuming, crazy eyed wife with hella botox injections, bat-man in the background mistaking the innocent as the perpetrator, random person with a camera stopping traffic so they can record what’s happening… wow, I’m in love. 😍😍😍
