Moment woman is punched and sent crashing to the ground as drinkers in their underwear brawl outside London pub
DRAMATIC footage shows the moment a woman is punched and sent crashing to the ground as drinkers in their underwear brawl outside a pub.
The shirtless scrap happened in Canning Town, east London, on Sunday night after the first weekend of lockdown restrictions easing.
The bizarre footage, taken outside The Princess Alexandra, was shared on social media – with a woman even sent sprawling to the floor.
In the clip, things got rowdy as three people – two of whom were shirtless and one in his pants – got into an apparent argument.
One woman, dressed in a grey top and black trousers, appears to swing at one of the shirtless men who shoves her to the ground.
Another man wearing a dark hoodie then runs over and jumps on one of the shirtless men, grabbing him by the neck and slamming him to the ground.
The shirtless man stands up and the same man shoves him again while shouting.
The original unclothed man joins back in and lands a punch.
Throughout the mayhem, a car can be seen driving slowly trying to get through the road while passers-by look on in horror.
The video then cuts to the same group standing by a bus stop where the two shirtless men are continuing their shenanigans, with the woman in the grey top and the man in the dark hoodie also present.
The shirtless duo square up to each other before the same woman appears to try to intervene.
She tries to grab hold of one of the men but loses her balance and topples to the ground once again.
A police car can be seen approaching before the video cuts out. It is unclear what happened afterwards.
The footage was later shared on Twitter, where viewers called the group “embarrassing”.
One person joked: “Now we can say that UK is back to normality.”
Another wondered if the fight was the result of a “threesome gone wrong” due to the unclothed state of the participants.
