    About 5 years ago. A former Australian cricketer David Hookes got punched by a bouncer and he fell back, hit his head on the gutter and died.

    These drunken idiots just don't know the damage that just one punch can do. Fuck yours and your family, along with the victims and their family.

    a while ago, also, someone i sort of knew, was in a local bar, and hit another guy in the head with a pool cue. the dude died like the next day, brain hemorrhage. dude! bad news. one young man dead, another young man spending his life, or a good portion of it in prison, for one too many drinks.

    sad..the things we humans do to one another :(

    sure wish the best for this dude.
    peace,

    That's sickening.

    It looks like he was out cold before he hit the ground _ the way his head struck the pavement he must have a skull fracture. He dropped like a rock, the poor guy.

    Never even had a second to defend himself.

    Similar thing happened to Jaco Pastorius, one of the greatest bass players ever, was drunk and being stupid, a bouncer hit him then repeatedly smashed his head on a curb. He was in a coma for over a week before his parents pulled the plug. In his biography his dad said that Jaco's was heart was beating for three hours after life support was removed and said, "I knew he had rhythm but that's ridiculous."

    Ahhhh where else but in my lovely crime ridden city of Melbourne.
    King Street = the seediest thug infested street in the city, enter at your own peril.
    They released more footage from another angle which was shown on the news tonight.
    The victim surprisingly got up and walked into the ambulance.
    He isn't an angel in this, apparently he was trying to fight the other guy that elbowed him.

    What a sucker punch/elbow. Even if the other guy was trying to start something. Atleast square off and go at it, no need to throw a sucker punch. That was pretty visciuos

    That's just horrible.

    Another example of idiotic behavior that results in a death is a few years back - a restaurant owner tried to break up a fight in his parking lot between two guests at a holiday party (no less) and the man was pushed or struck and fell back and hit his head and was killed.

    What a senseless waste.

    so he was fighting in the streets and now he is fighting for his life... this guy likes fighting. :thumbup:
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    Sadly this sort of shit happens way too much. It seems to be an almost regular occurrence here in brisso. On time a 15 or 16 year old boy was at a party and was king hit, fell back busted his head on a gutter and died. I don't know why people would go out any more, king hits, glassings, fights with 4 or 5 guys against one. It's bullshit an disgusting. Back in my day if you got in a fight it was you know a couple of swings at each other, fight gets broken up you walk away. Today it's like an ultimate fighting championship, even if you do get not to the ground that ain't the head of it, you get kicked, have your head stomped on and what not. It's fucking unnecessary.
    condescending and sarcastic since 1980
