Original video here.
67 year old man (now known as "Epic Beard Guy") throws an world class beat-down on transit thug who hits him first.
Absolute MUST SEE TV. Note the hillarious inscription on the old guys shirt.
I ran into this via AR15.com last night when it only had a few hundred views, now it's gone TOTALLY viral and is sure to become internet lore. If you want to see how viral, just Google Epic Beard Guy.
If you want a few hours of laughs, the AR15 thread is HILLARIOUS

The video appears to be from the black female friend of the black guy. I’m guessing she started recording expecting to get a beat down of the white guy, and they had a surprise. I’m wondering if the black guy was supposed to instigate something as part of an initiation?

His initiation into the ‘Short Bus Club’?

Never pick a fight with an old man. If he's old to....uhhhhhhhh....never mind, he'll kick your ass.

That is an outstanding result.
Hopefully people recognize Epic Beard Guy on future trips and thank him for resisting thugs when others simply wouldn't or cowered away.
He might have been a Vietnam vet who knows how to dish out some pain.

OK - who’s gonna call the WAAAmbulance?
PS LoserBoy probably wanted an ambulance because he didn’t wouldn’t have to pay anything for it.
