The subway has been getting more chaotic lately. Summer brings many out, and I am noticing more large groups of youths. I keep my guard up esp at night.

There is nothing funny at all about a fight in a public place than can cause harm to innocent passengers, and women and children. A stray punch, kick or fall could hurt someone.

I bet the folks who enjoy watching people get beat up don't like it when they have to fight themselves in a public place. This is not funny, it's sadistic voyeurism. If that old guy had a heart attack WOULD IT STILL be funny?

No, it would not. But IMO what I can see happening in the video is slightly funny, as I said the whole situation with the silly woman knocking on the doors and everything.

The only thing funny about this vedio is what the black man is wearing, silly clown!

I really hope the Mayor investigates this and they catch this guy put him in Jail!

I can't believe pple actually intervened and tried to stop this, that women deserves recognition and respect!

I thought the lady knocking on the door was funny. The fight was a fight. Not particularly funny, but not shocking. I felt bad for the good samaritans though.

I wouldnt even call that a fight. Lol. A struggle at best. One guy was in a headlock the whole time barely resisting and the old man looked like he was giving a massage.

I wonder if this is recent? This past saturday a manhattan bound E train I was on was held up like 20 mins at Ely because there was a fight on the train ahead of it.

Yes, I have many times intervened on someone elses behalf. Just meant that this woman banging on the doors don't deserve to be lifted up to somekind of hero status level.
