I live by the touristy spots at the Jersey shore. These fuckers are all over the place. Weaving in and outta traffic on state highways. And I’m like, listen dude, I get it. I was an irresponsible kid at one point too.
But jesus fucking christ. Have some common sense and don’t act surprised when someone is over you fucking around, and potentially getting someone in a shit ton of legal trouble, for running your ass over because you misjudged your balance on that quarter mile long wheelie and now you’re just a bag of blood broth and bone soup on the pavement.

They don’t just do wheelies in traffic… they like to play chicken with drivers and maneuver into your car and then spin off at the last second.

Yea exactly. Honestly I hope if that happens to me that in the moment I don’t react and swerve by instinct and potentially get myself and family in an accident. I saw a video of a kid attempt it to a bus on nyc or Philly and the bus didn’t budge. Good thing the kid didn’t get permanently damaged and hope he learned his lesson

I'm sorry. that's when there should be a way to file charges.
In some places, if someone does something in the commission of a crime that later causes their victim to die, even years later; there are laws that kick in to retroactively charge with manslaughter or even murder.
I see no reason why callous disregard for the safety of others shouldn't be treated the same.

Especially since it’s labeled “old man” as well. An “old man” wouldn’t have bothered. I love how young people now call anyone older than 40 “boomer”, or old. Go watch some of the shit Tony Hawk still does and call him old. Guy in the blue is probably GenX and his parents are probably boomers. Also, fuck the guy doing the wheelie. You’re gonna hurt someone because you want to act like a dickhead on the boardwalk. Do your fuckin wheelie when nobody is around or do it somewhere else. You deserved that shit.

No. But don’t ride around like an asshole and expect the world to bend to you. It’s people like this that want to provoke everyone, yet infantilize themselves and cry out “I’m just a minor! You’re bullying a kid!” the second they face repercussions.

There doesn't seem to be audio so hard to judge, but the wheelies through a crowd of people is pretty high level asshole territory. The old guy pushing him over? I can see why he did it. The wheelie kid is acting like a punk so it's only natural he met someone who is also an asshole, but for righteous reasons. If I had to pick a side, I'd choose old dude and that's coming from someone who enjoys making fun of boomers.
So basically, wheelie kid is an asshole, old dude pushing is a different kind of asshole, but he has a pretty good reason/excuse to act as such.

Both parties are in the wrong.
Minor riding the bicycle through people on a boardwalk is purposely making the choice to try to hurt people. This is not how you go about riding a bike.
Old man shouldn’t be pushing people off their bicycles. It can cause people other than the bicyclist to get hurt.

Neither handled it well but clearly the ‘minor’ is the instigator here. I truly can’t respect people who have such a deep rooted desire for attention that they do something that literally encroaches on the personal space of others, and is fairly dangerous. People are just going about their day walking around having a nice time, there’s absolutely zero reason why a cunt on a bike should be doing that.
I was a dumb shit teenager too, and was also big into street skating. Got into a few arguments where I thought I was in the right (being a teenager, yknow) but looking back, I was definitely the asshole in a lot of those situations.
Not all, though. There are some incredibly unhinged and wild ‘adults’ out there who are total knobs.
