Being reminded that crap like this happens in Lan Kwai Fong makes us feel much better about being hermits and staying in bed on a Friday night.
In a
posted twice by Bunny Ching and Jam Kwok to pro-establishment Facebook group “ , a group of men appear to get into a massive fight as dawn broke in Lan Kwai Fong.
Too much testosterone, alcohol and douchebaggery are probably to blame. Highlights include a shirtless man throwing a glass bottle onto the ground for no apparent reason, another taking a running start and pouncing on the shirtless man from behind, and one man, with more bravado than athletic prowess, attempting to join the fight and slipping on the slick ground. And that’s all in the first 40 seconds of the video!
According to this
, the fight occurred in the early hours of Saturday.
Though it is unclear where the people shown in the video are from, Ching complained in his caption about how foreigners are allowed to get away with "performance art", while mainlanders are chastised for simply rolling their suitcases on the street. He said he supported the “stern enforcement” of the law by the Hong Kong police.
The most-liked Facebook comment on the video said: "Foreigners are 100 times more annoying than mainlanders."
In the second most popular comment, a user sarcastically wrote: "They are speaking English! English-speakers are always more noble in whatever they do!"
Throughout all the video’s commotion, young (English-speaking) women are heard talking, possibly discussing how to deal with their inebriated friends: “No, you hold her!”, and in response, “Ok, ok, I’ll hold her”.
In short, shit hit the fan, and none involved contributed anything to humanity that day.
At the end of the video, a wise kid says: “I think everybody should go home now.”
“You like Hong Kong?” the same kid asks a foreign woman, presumably a tourist.
“No,” she replies.
If that was her most memorable experience in the city, then we can't really blame her.
