Start watching the video from the beginning, instead of jumping to the part where the Son puts his arm out to brush away a potential collision between the two groups, he's not even making eye contact with the Thai guy.

I have to laugh at the Anti British Sentiment here, I'm not even British.

As for calling me a liar, not half as much as the people who are saying the Brit was so drunk, he fell over, are you in possession of the blood alcohol count to confirm this, or are you also just seeing what you want to see? I do believe in most countries, proof of intoxication, especially with a DUI has to be proven by a medical examination, and not based on simple hearsay.

As for the comment made by another poster probably using a second TVF account, wading through 10's of thousand of people, without having to use your arm to make your way through, that's a complete and utter bullshit, it's simple human nature to put your arm out, as a soccer fan who attended many games, the only way to make your way through the crowd at games is by using your arms, it's a bit like swimming in people, nice and gentle gestures and most people don't take offence to it either, when you're in a full commuter train and you have to move through people, you do so using your arms, often gently moving people aside, most people in these circumstances don't bat an eyelid.

The way some posters here are going on, the tourist hit the Thai guy with the force of a sledgehammer!!

The son sticking his hand out and just happened to touch a drunk Thai guy.. Is it OK to say the Thai was drunk??

If the video is missing the push that caused sober son to fall, so be it..

At that point, if the mom would have attended to her son.. Just to at least to make sure he was not injured..

But she confronted the Thai man instead, which I believe was the turning point from the altercation being over to the family getting whooped senseless.

Anyway..

You say you stick your arm out to gently move people out of your way?

It's bad enough bumping shoulders and other body parts with people in a massive crowd..

When I see or feel that hand or arm trying to move me out of the way, when I'm going same direction... I first look to see who the <deleted> is, in such a hurry...

Then, if it's a female, they get a free pass..

If it's a male <deleted> in a hurry, they're just going to have to find another person to move out of the way..

I keep my arms to my sides, and go with the flow.. I never have to gently move anyone out of my way...

Anyway, back to the not so bright family..

So, the son stuck his arm out... It sure didn't look to be a hit, a shove, an attempt to gently move people out of his way or separate a group from colliding.

Also, since it appeared the son wasn't looking directly at the Thai when he stuck his arm out..

He may have seen the that particular Thai being obnoxious and thought it would be funny to screw with a drunk Thai without being notice, but he got caught..

AGAIN! Not apologizing for anything the Thai's did that night..

Not blaming anyone from the UK..

Not saying the old lady deserved being kicked in the face..

No one does in the position she was in!!

I will say, she would have never been kicked in the face if she never slapped the Thai.. My opinion!!

And she should also apologize to the guy she assaulted..
