A role model-free fracas as big as a melee.
Choreographed Out of control late night dining.

Well, this is nuts and going to get a lot of comments!!
Fill yer boots while you can…I can’t see it staying up long…
But I paid 20 euros for this p…oh I see what you mean.
“…p…”?
-Penis pump?
-Pill?
-Plastic bag full of monkey glands?
-Pornographic one-man play starring, written and directed by Tom McGuirk?
I keep my monkey glands in Tupperware. Not a plastic bag.
Hang on, though, these are actors, right? Ms Pigtails and the guy beside her already seem to have “bloodied” faces as she strolls in at the beginning of the video.
Denis O’Brien no doubt
They’re clearly in some form of zombie costume.
They do seem like actors from the quality of the camera work, the fact that most people seem sober and the boyfriend at the end quickly knowing exactly who to go for even though he evidently didn’t see the events. if it was real then it is actually an invasion of privacy to film a victim like this even in a public place as people in this situation are considered by law to have an “expectation of privacy”.
Beam me up.
all aboard, viral train departing!
Look after your unconscious girlfriend first you complete cretin
I know…He heads out for a fight instead
#friendzone
Pure scum on tour.
Meanwhile, around the corner in DiFontaine’s, everyone’s dancing the Macarena while yer man behind the counter flicks the lights on and off.
disgusting stuff, as is the norm in Dublin. shame on yer man trying to stand on someone’s head, thats just not on and shame on yer man who did nothing but film and then send it in here. grow some backbone’s.
SHAME SHAME SHAME ON YOU
On who exactly? There are a few contenders here…
well as he said … yer man…
In fairness, it is disgusting stuff but I wouldn’t say it’s the norm in Dublin. Sure Ray’s is around the corner, as is Skinflint, and they both do nice pizza. I’ve heard DiFontaine’s is good too. Don’t tar all Dublin pizzerias with your comments.
The kind of people who eat pizza from Apache don’t consider the fare from skinflint pizza.
Hungry people?
the norm in Dublin Timmy? not the sort of thing you’d see in your village?
I think it’s great to put this stuff up on YouTube. Guards and senior guards and people in government might watch it and put more resources into the area. I don’t think there’s many capital cities in Europe that have such a weak police presence on such a busy night. If that was in Paris or London or Madrid there would be a flurry of police all over that immediately. Not in Dublin where “sorry, we have no cars available” is the norm from the Gardai.
Ethical and righteous Broadsheet is ethical and righteous.
Amazing what quality of video can be captured by mobile phones these days. Its almost like watching an episode of love/hate in high definition. Is this staged by any chance?
That’s my reaction too! Not that it’s staged but that it’s like watching a TV show.
I think the proper camera orientation, inbuilt shake reduction, very well lit scene and a sober camerman who may be a proponent of Dogme 95 really leant to this…
Yeah me too. Feckin Marvellous.
How lovely it would be to be knocked unconscious and wake up to see a video of you all over the place. Not good fellas.
Bleedin’ fordiners!
That’s actually really well filmed.
That’s what I thought…. Really well shot!!
Total keeper.
Cretan. I meant total cretan.
I’m not sure apart from the obvious similarities to minotaurs.
I’m in too deep now so I’m sticking with it.
They had halloumi rather than mozzarella?
Fairly well recorded in fairness, good job OP
Lingering shot of girl unconscious on the floor, camera panning across her exposed upper thighs… camera work was actually pretty creepy.
This is real life, not a movie. It wasn’t the cameraman’s fault that she was unconscious or her skirt rose up as she collapsed on the floor.
Missed + point.
Since your claim that the cameraman is some kind of pervert is complete bollocks, because all the creepy stuff you allege is due to complete inadvertentence on their part, I don’t think I have.
Didn’t see much of this carry on when yokes were legal.
A sliver of light between slabs of infinite darkness. Best 12 hours of this nation’s life.
Was it for this?
I’m sure they sell pizza in the shape of Ireland
Broadsheet – wtf.
Pizza in our time
give pizza a chance
The way things are going they’re going to crucify the pair of Ye
*crustify
Breathtaking!
My last comment being scathingly critical about broadsheet’s decision to post this video, and the privacy of an innocent women knocked unconscious and left on the ground with her panties showing, must have been a bit close to the bone of the editorial who removed it. Classless and classless… But at least we can all toff our noses at the rif raff..
What privacy are you referring to? She’s in a public place. Unless you’re inferring your preference is that she wouldn’t be wearing any panties? You sick fupp!!!
I’m refering to common decency, or does that go out the window in a public space?
Why does that mean?
What
This is why you should always heed your mammy and change jocks daily.
I think they were English rather than Scottish
Anybody else think she looked like she was acting?
if she was acting she must be a Hollywood stunt double too. you can clearly she her lose balance and hit the back of her head on floor at speed, without getting a change to break her fall. but enough of that, look at those toe rags fighting.. tut tut
This made me feel sick, what a bunch of scammers. After I pulled my head out of the loo I checked out the YouTube channel it was uploaded to and his profile pic is that of Jake G in Nightcrawler. The guy who makes money turning up to scenes of carnage first (no spoilers). Suitable, considering this guy obviously has a knack for steady camera work.
Inner city Dubs, culchies, and an Englisher… yep, I’m definitely better than all of them! Yeah goys??
culchies?
Walked home sober down Camden St recently. It’s mad the things that go on that I’d normally be oblivious to after a few pints. One girl in heels was like bambi on ice, fell and cracked both knees off the kerb / a guy trying to put a messy kebab in his mouth but kept hitting it off his nose and cheek/ some fella outside the palace couldn’t stand and was using the bike stands as crutches.
Have an office on Camden Street. The guards are in every other Monday looking for my cctv footage from the front of my property of the various comings and goings on the street. It’s fairly savage and you can imagine. It’s a street i’m rarely on after 8pm.
Why did the girl who ended up unconscious get involved in the brawl in the first place? She had walked away but then came back and got into the middle of the fracas. No one involved in this is blameless it comes a lot of small mickey waving going on, maybe they should stop drinking is this is the state they get into.
How do you know they’re drinking?
It’s pretty obvious. Unless you are blind, deaf or a moron.
I’m all three. You’re going to have to give me notes
I’ll transcribe it after the rugby and add in the slurred words.
Her pizza was probably ready.
macho fun times, these lads need to keep their egos on a leash
Well, that escalated quickly
Next time I’m going to have the Sicilian
She smashed her head twice on the ground. That’s not acting. Good boxing movements from the dublin gurrier in fairness
Stamping on the other fellas head is a classy move as well.
Ye I was kinda hoping he would be under the wheel of a taxi when the cameraman ran out after I saw the head stamp
The Queen would be proud.
It was the English guy that started it that dragged down the girl a-haaa HahaHAAA
Apache by name and apache by nature.
Happy Days
A hawaiian without the pineapple is just a ham and cheese.
Anyone else find it odd the sponsored ad on this page is where to find the five best pints of Guinness in Dublin. These idiots are the reason Leo Vradkar is trying to double the price of booze. Stay classy.
If you want to win the lottery, you have to make the money to buy a ticket.
hahahaha
Nasty crack on the back of the head on a tiled floor, followed by some moron dropping her head onto the tiles again. Hope she’s OK, potential for very serious injury there. What a depressing video.
Poor staff having to risk their lives serving drunken socially retarded apes every night, no class.
What problem was going to be resolved by repeatedly challenging the staff member to fight outside? Fighty McTardo needed a slap.
Would there not be data protection laws coming into play here? These people didn’t consent to being filmed I’m sure.
Do they live in Apache yeah?
G’man
I’m not sure what that’s got to do with it. G’man yourself.
Usually you don’t have copyright over your image in a public place.
Look, you’re both good men, but Jungledude is right, he is making the point that they’re not in their gafs, they’re in a public place- so no privacy issues are compromised. Anyway, it’s not like they were kissing in a public place, they were fighting, and deserve to be shamed.
Standard consent forms were passed around prior to kick off.

Th cynic in me says this is something to do with that new campaign out-of-control drinking. It’s all just too…perfect.
Does look a bit staged…
Nice bit of authenticity to make the protagonists a bunch of little Englanders if that’s the case.
ERMERGAHD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Not ermergahd?
This incident happen on Halloween night two years ago
Was wondering about the fancy dress on a Friday night!
Not role model free at all. Two great guys. Red bearded fella trying to stop it and calling an ambulance. And clever legend putting her in the recovery position.
Hi folks my cousin Matt the ginger hair guy with beard on phone in the apache pizza fight says the incident happens two years ago but was only uploaded to YouTube yesterday.
He needs to get a faster connection then.
They mean the ginger on the phone to the emergency services. He wasn’t the one recording it.
The people claiming fake are not far off the mark. The violence is probably real but it is far from spontaneous.
IMHO ( based on 20 years working in nighclubs) the contingent were out for a fight. they want as many people involved as possible. They manipulate a situation to start fighting then hit out at everyone who tries to intervene.
It’s a technique used by football crews for years, I once saw 8 blokes with synchronised watches all just hit the nearest woman to them in a nightclub at the same time knowing that the resulting melee would be beyond the doormans control, it was, the police had to come in on horses to sort it out.
It’s nothing to do with drink, it’s just fupptards who like fighting and showing how hard they are. It’s not representative of the English, just a subculture of yobs who are brain dead.
Using synchronised watches to start a brawl – that is a nice touch. I do like the image of a few mounted bobbies galloping about inside a nightclub during a riot.
Burst out laughing at the bit about the horses!
The Connemara Ponies that the shades would be on wouldn’t fit through the door.
Mind you, I reckon the shades wouldn’t fit through the door themselves.
Brits Out!
The Fightin’ Irish.
Spare a thought for the emergency service workers who no doubt had to deal with these flutes.
It’s thanks to these flutes that the emergency service workers have jobs
‘ save me form watching it again
The little ücker at the start?
who was arguing and being a prick to the staff
Where did he end up?
Did the lad with the MMA gatch give ‘im any daycent belts?
‘Cause tbf, he was looking for one
I don’t know about this being role model free. Several people tried to stop a fight in an enclosed space, at least three people came to attend the girl. Sounds like two different people were calling an ambulance. Someone had sense enough to put her in the recovery position and when the fight broke out again and people knew the girl was unconscious the fighters were ejected fairly sharpish.
While there’s definitely plenty to be ashamed of there, some people did do the right thing.
three rights don’t Wright a song
Two people trying to ring for the same ambulance at the same time – clogging up the emergency line, or worse, calling two ambulances – aren’t good role models.
They are the real villains here. SHAME ON THEM!
Looks like the #lp15 conference.
Fupp the Notorious and the MMA, I want to see Clarkson v the gurrier.
I call BS on this one. pure fake.
what would be the purpose of that?
So, was she okay in the end?
They’re engaged! Guess who’s the best man…Go on.
belly laugh from me. Well done. Had to scroll through 100+ comments to get to it though. 4.5 stars
Where is Fergus Finlay and his Diageo friends when they’re needed?
Well, as Dumphy once said, this country is a Dump, always was and always will be.
