Saw this edited video after viewing the actual footage of a 67 year old man being harassed on a city bus.Reminded me of a thread awhile ago about that poor guy in Oakland,CA whose clothes was set on fire while asleep on the bus.This man clearly wasn't asleep and wasn't tasking any crap!Liked the music put to the incident.

This is the video of the actual incident.

I remember that one from around when it happened. I thought it was funny that people began referring to him as "Epic Beard Man."

Hi Chris,
Well his beard is quite well taken care of and guess you can say... epic ;) LOL Cheers

Interestingly, both events occurred on AC Transit, the agency that serves the East Bay.

I also saw on the news they are having that problem with the so called "knock out" game on unsuspecting people.Just sucker punching people at random.Of course that seems to be a problem all over.

I remember some controversy that the old guy started the incident by making racist remarks. Not sure if that's true but at any rate neither of them came across as particularly pleasant individuals.

After doing more research I realized this wasn't a recent incident but still very intriguing.I saw more youtube videos where each of the men were interviewed and obviously their accounts didn't quite match.Still remarks are one thing but throwing the first punch is another so someone needed to take the chill pill ;) LOL. Cheers

Hi Damon,
Ha ha, just read that story and can't get over what a life this guy has led.Funny how you can become instantly famous out of the blue but then his personality had to match the situation.Oh well not the kind of life I'd like to lead but seems like he got his jollies until reality hit home.....

... "Bad Ass," starring Danny Trejo. It's worth a watch if you enjoy action-oriented "beat 'em ups."
NOTE: The movie is VERY loosely inspired by the events involving Epic Beard Guy on the AC transit bus; it's not meant to be a realistic depiction of actual events.
I especially liked the various references to some of the more memorable moments from the AC transit bus incident.
