Footage Shows Another Altercation Involving Folding Chair Following Viral Riverboat Fight
However, it wasn't immediately clear when the new footage was taken, or what exactly happened.
Footage of a fight drawing to an apparent close after a chair entered the situation has entered a state of virality in light of the extensive news coverage surrounding the previously viral riverboat brawl in Alabama.
The new clip, which appears to have originated from a Detroit-based Instagram account earlier this week, focuses on two men, one of them charging at the other. The man being charged at, meanwhile, proceeds to respond by hitting the other man with a folding chair.
“The era of the folding chair: Downtown Detroit yesterday,” the caption to the Instagram post reads.
In the clip, you can hear several warnings being shouted off camera, including apparent bystanders urging the charging man to “stop" or “you’re gonna get fucked up.”
At the time of this writing, it remains unclear when, exactly, the clip was recorded and what, exactly, transpired prior to the moments captured in the video. The footage has grown increasingly popular over the past 24 hours, particularly on Twitter. It has also been shared and discussed on the Detroit subreddit.
