Video Shows Drunk Texas Man Tased At The Airport
A video is going viral online showing a drunk Texas man who was tased at the airport. Not the best way to start a trip.
If you go to the airport and don’t encounter any problems or issues, you should consider yourself lucky. These days it seems like something goes wrong every day at seemingly every airport! It might be the door falling off the plane, a missing wheel, a rude clerk, or it could be a drunk passenger. That’s what happened in this story.
Why Was A Drunk Texas Man Tased At The Airport?
The incident happened at Dallas Love Field Airport after the man was denied boarding. Reports say it happened around 6:25pm near the Whataburger close to Gate 12. People were able to capture the craziness on their cell phones. In the now viral video, a man shouts at 3 officers causing one of them to pull out a Taser. That seems to have agitated him even further.
The cell phone footage shows officers putting the man’s hands behind his back but he pulls them away before stumbling to the ground. That’s when the officer aims and fires the Taser directly into the man’s back. Then, they were able to safely handcuff him before the video concludes. According to WFAA, the Dallas Police Department says they were called to the airport because the man was causing a disturbance after being denied boarding. He was eventually arrested and charged with public intoxication.
You can see the viral video shared on YouTube below.
Dave brought up a good point on the show while talking about the video. You know how sometimes when people get tased they seem to end up with super-human strength and keep fighting through it? This guy is not one of those. He screams and gets dropped immediately. It actually sounds like it could be Chuck doing a fake scream, but it’s all too real.
Forget “what’s the deal with airplane food?” what’s the deal with airports? It seems like there’s a new story coming out every day of something wild happening at an airport. It’s starting to become very difficult to keep track of all of them! It’s understandable. People are often stressed at airports and that can lead to some ugly situations. Maybe they had one too many drinks to try to relax before the flight, maybe they’ve been dealing with many cancelations or delays and are fed up, or maybe they’re just jerks. Anything is possible.
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn’t), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it’s the crime itself that’s wild, other times, it’s the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.
Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America’s Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I’m not sure if those shows are around…and I’m certain Spike TV isn’t around anymore. That’s a story for another time.

Craziest Crimes
Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren’t a matter of life or death. There’s no ethics quiz here, or any matters of ‘would you steal bread to support your family?’ These crimes, and criminals, aren’t straight up cringeworthy.
While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That’s why I’ve gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let’s be honest…what’s better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I’m going with the funny storytellers.
They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but…you get it. Let’s not delay! Here’s the list!
