Good for him, bet that kid won't even look at him ever again. It's one of those times where seeing someone get hurt isn't painful or disgusting, precisely because he completely deserved it.

I'm not sure if this is the same kid or not.

But anyway, yeah things can go too far, I've taken things too far before (Never that far though) and I have also been bullied in one way or another throughout my life. Weirdly I can't seem to go anywhere in my school without getting abuse from much younger students, especially if I'm on my own or with less than 2 friends with me.

That video reminds me of my childhood. Me and my brother. God, I beat the crap out of that little **** so many times, it wasn't until I turned 14 when I could really, really hurt him that he finally stopped attacking me.
To this day, we still can't stand each other. Most in part, he hasn't changed. He's still a obnoxious, weasel, a-hole who is still super jealous of me.
Oh, and I think the kid handled himself very well. When attacked, he fought back and only once. He wasn't cruel or malicious. He slammed the kid to get him to stop attacking, and that was all he needed.

I got bullied a few times when I was growing up, the first time was a non-issue I must have been 9-10 years old, I had been taking Karate lessons and I lashed back and found that I was strong, i got suspended for a few days, afterwards me and the guy got on fine.
Then again during lower comprehensive school (new school, new people and some guys hit puberty faster than others ^^), a group of guys (2 main guys) of which I had been friends with when I was younger for a short time, for some reason decided they were "after" me. They were older than me and it wasn't exactly a fun situation. I remember being punched in the face by one guy in school as he asked me if it hurt, and I would reply no, to which he would just punch me again. Then I remember it was 2 days before I was due to go to france, I was 12 years old and in the middle of town 3 of the guys were there and one punched me in the lip (Fat lip like a badboy) and I (My parents) went to the police about it, soon after it stopped, one of the guys then (quite sly to be honest) started acting nice towards me.
A few years later I was into skateboarding and I saw the guy that punched me and he had simply grown up, he was so ashamed of himself and appolagised often, infact if I see him now (some 13 years later) he is one of the nicest guys you could know and we get on great.
Another time during my age of 13-14 I got bullied by some guy, nothing too bad but it wasnt fun being punched or pushed around and I snapped and attacked him eventually, after that he was generally nice to me. In that case he was a much bigger guy, I genuinely had no chance of beating him in a fight but bullies often get put off by someone who shows confidence or courage, they prey on the weak.
About the guy in the video, he was right to do what he did. But I think his parents taught him wrong. Telling your child "not to hit" people is all well and good, but sticking up for yourself is something that everybody at some point in their lives will have to do, and I think that a child should know that self defense is ok. Bullies pray on the weak, and a kid who doesnt defend himself and will just allow someone to hit him is a prime target for a bully. I guess its not always that simple though.

You see, this stuff never happens in the Pacific northwest.
That said, the bullies around here are mainly mental attackers, which is something I've never had a problem dealing with.

First off, I'm genuinely surprised that a lot of people have gone through so many fights and whatnot during school. I've (at least so far) never seen or heard of any fights breaking out at any of the schools I've gone to. I'm not going to claim there's no bullying going on however, but I've never seen it go any further than verbal abuse (which is still bad however).
I think Casey did the right thing here; he's getting attacked, he defended himself. He didn't inflict any unnecessary harm at all, he put that kid to the ground, and took it no further. He did the right thing by not taking it any further, which shows that he was clearly defending himself. Blah blah "go and tell a teacher", they'll never do anything useful other than make the entire situation worse for everyone.

That surprises me mate but in a good way. Sadly when I went to school it was almost survival of the fittest if you like. On average you would probably see about three fights a week.
Just recently I had our 20 year reunion for school, it was actually a bit funny to some of the guys who used to belt the crap out of each other sharing a beer and having a good talk. I will say there was two guys that I know of that couldn't make it to the reunion because they were locked up. Honestly I wasn't surprised when I found out.
When I started this thread I honestly didn't think there would be that many people who would come forward and say they have been bullied. Kudos to you.👍
If you can garner the courage stand up for yourselves. Take care.
Cheers Shaun.

You are only surprised because you live in Melbourne and have gone to some of the better and currently the best school there. You don't get the stupid 'lad' runts walking around all high and mighty in their nikes and with their shaved legs in your average private school.
I dont have any in my school, although it is a public school it may as well be private with the way it is all done. However that doesn't mean there aren't fights, EVERY school I have ever been to has had fights, it is second nature. Not just in Queensland but when I lived in Adelaide it was common there too. I am just glad this kid stood up, fixed the problem and did nothing more, just walked off.
And yes, as someone pointed out above, the kid looks likes a lad in training. Here, fight this kid and become a mad kid, a lad

It's indead a bit shocking how many people have had problems with bullying at school... Luckily, I've never been the kind of guy who'd be targeted by bullies. I largely attribute that to the fact that I'm rather tall and always had a pretty muscular physique.
Either way, we had a lot of stuff at our school. And it wasn't like it would've been located in a bad area or anything. I really don't get what motivates people to do that kind of stuff...
Guess I can consider lucky. The only two times I got involved in a fight were because someone messed with my girlfriend and a close friend of mine, respectively

I have been bullied and I have bullied. My biggest defeat was in 6th grade of elementary school were we were fighting in the public. At some point he sends me down and blocks me buy sitting in my chest. I couldn't stand up and we were fighting with our arms. I was at his mercy and lucky to come out without blood.
My biggest victory was when I was fighting in the backyard of our elementary school with a bunch of loosers and I was able to withstand them all. In an instance I grab the puniest of them from the arms and in an intuitive moment I start spinning around my self until he took off. I was spinning the fastest I could until I decided too let him go. He flew over a tree's trunk and got up crying like a sissy.
Gregor was a good boy, consequent student and a fair personality. I with a friend of mine however were constantly picking on him by calling him names and running away. He didn't run fast so we enjoyed this practise until we drove him crazy and his parents sent him to another school.

WTF?? Shaved legs??
Wow, if you wanted to be bullied in the UK shaving your legs would be a good place to start. I'd be too busy laughing to be upset by these guys!
Just to add my two-pennies, I was bullied a lot at school, brought up as a christian and that doesn't tend to go down well with "hard" kids, apparently it means you are gay. It's always the little mouthy ones that hang around with the cool kids that are the worst IMO. Anyway, I had one of these mouthy kids that used to give me grief, had a short fight that ended in his confusion at me blocking punches but grief continued both in and out of school. One day in gym we randomly were doing wrestling. Never happened before or since. The whole class were in two lines, took it in turns to "fight" one on one. As fate would have it, I was paired with the mouthy kid, who didn't know that I'd taken up Judo for the last year or so. As our bout started I grabbed him, turned around and flipped him over my shoulder so he hit the ground hard and pinned him while he was winded. Man I'll never forget that, one of my happiest school memories! No more trouble from him..
Epilogue: turns out he is gay and now works in a hairdressers! I guess that's why he had such an interest in the subject as a young man..

People must learn to live after the 50/50 rule, and that is, if you dont do anything to me, i dont do anything to you. If you implement this, you can live along and just chill, because you know if you do anything, you will get 🤬 Unfortiunatly people are cowards and fight like 10 vs 1. Specialy in sweden, many "elite" people runs the school, and that is rich parents that have spoiled kids. Parents are stupid, instead of beating their kid that has bullied some one, the parents just deny it. Violence is wrong if you use it to opress innocent people, but if you gotta defend your self, then i think you can use all violence you need.

I enjoyed watching that video, was a pretty good slam and watching the kid hobble around after was satisfying.
On a serious note, I saw quite a lot of bullying at school but unfortunately I never did anything about it. I actually regret it now and wish I could have helped some of those people. Seeing anyone being bullied for whatever reason really hits home with me. Something I definitely wouldn't stand for now.

I happy for Casey, personally having watched wrestling religiously some years ago I would have done ALOT more damage to that piece of so and so on the sole of your shoe.
I am really surprised that Casey didn't do more damage than he did. Something like only caused a graze or a cut on the wee dudes leg? He could easily have broken his nose or collarbone or something serious. But then you sort of have to think, it looks like he knew his own strength becasue that kid looks like he's the weight of a bag of sugar and that boy Casey is proporationally built for lifting things with ease.
I'd say he takes his anger out in some shape or way becasue I seriously think he could have done the same, if not better to the other dude that was about to stand up to him.
EDIT: I can thank whatever or whoever is watching over that I was never bullyied badly in school. There was like 1 or 2 years in primary school where I was picked on, but I ended up in the same secondary school as the dude and he was sound then. It kills me inside knowing that my cousin is being bullyied in school though for his weight. He enjoys his sport but he just cannot seem to lose weight. He'd play football until his lungs collapse and nothing. God help anyone I catch laying a finger or saying something to him though. Its been a very long time since I've been in a fight, and I think it would be a one way battle....

I'd highly advise you to not do that. I can guarantee you, anything you do to the bullies will be paid back tenfold - to your cousin, when you're not around.

Part of growing up is learning to deal with your problems, and learning that there are consequences for your actions. Kids do not get the chance to do that much anymore, as they are protected far too much.
When the schoolyard bully keeps chasing you, and you stop, turn around and punch him hard somewhere it really hurts, he will think twice about chasing again.

The kid who got body-slammed claims he was provoked. People have a funny way of remembering things like this in such a way that they are the victims, but based on what I saw in the video, the kid had it coming. The older guy simply didn't react at the first punch - or the second. He just stood there. It wasn't until the third punch that he actually started resisting, and the would-be bully kept going. This kid's first few punches were clearly intended to taunt the older guy, probing for a reaction. It's cold. Measured. Deliberate. Not the actions of someone reacting to emotion the way this kid says he was.

Ouch, that's some hardcore verbal abuse right there. I so agree with the bully, if anyone told me to get to class I'd so go and punch them 5 or 6 times in the face.
