The victim critically injured inside Dulles Town Center mall said he was recording a prank video for his TH-cam page when he was shot.

Tanner Cook, 21, remained in the intensive care unit the next day with his mother by his side after one bullet pierced through his stomach and liver.
The Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office did not publicly identify Tanner Cook, but court documents and a Loudoun County General District Court judge identified him during the arraignment for the suspect, Alan Colie, 31, of Leesburg.
Officials arrested and charged Colie on Sunday with aggravated malicious wounding, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony and discharging a firearm within a building.
Sheriff Mike Chapman said the shooting was a result of a fight that broke out in the food court between both men. The gunfire caused panic among mallgoers.
A video recorded by Instagram user @thisismyu5ername captured Colie being arrested on the ground.
As the investigation continues, Cook spoke exclusively to WUSA9 from his hospital bed after undergoing surgery. Cook, a content creator for the TH-cam page Classified Goons, said he was playing jokes with Colie for another video.
“I was playing a prank and a simple practical joke, and this guy didn't take it very well,” said Tanner Cook.
His friend was recording the video when Colie allegedly pulled out his gun. The family said the footage is now part of evidence.
“He didn’t say anything to me,” added Tanner Cook.
Despite what led up to the gunfire, Tanner Cook’s father said the shooting was shocking and unnecessary. Tanner Cook stressed his family is relying on God and their faith to show support for his son. He even said he has no ill will, anger, or bitterness towards Colie.
“We need restoration, we need healing, and we need to come together,” said Jeramy Cook. “I pray for this young man and pray that he finds God in this. I believe that God saved our son's life, and he could have easily died but that's not the outcome. God has plans for my son."
“It’s surreal,” said his grandfather Mike Cook. “It’s obviously been unnerving and some fear running in and out, but we live on faith and not fear.”
The mall reopened on Monday after being shut down for a whole day.
Loudoun County Board of Supervisors Chair Phyllis Randall said she fielded many calls from worried constituents. Her focus is not only the victim but the people who witnessed the shooting.
“I've heard from so many of my constituents and they're traumatized,” said Randall. “The victims are more than just people directly involved. People have secondary trauma from this and may never walk back into this mall again.”
Despite his injuries, Tanner Cook said it will not stop him from creating videos.
During his arraignment on Monday, Colie was assigned a public defender.
Anyone with additional information is asked to contact Detective K. Mitchell at 703-777-1021.

This isn't a prank gone wrong, this is a prank gone right.
imagine getting this angry over a joke u shoot someone. you and the shooter need serious mental help
Amen
Almost. If you get my drift...
People who carry firearms should train to be more potent with them
your son doesn't know when to stop.. he should've said that my son should've leave him alone when he said stop..
"This guy didn't want to have fun." Not everybody wants to be harassed as content.
Right? I understand and sympathize to a very small extent that his son was shot, but he’s a fool to think “key word” trickery is going to persuade me, and apparently most of the people in this comment section, to feel bad for his son.
Anyone ever tell you that you can ignore them they want reactions ignore them if you don’t wanna be content and if not just call security simple
@@kibi8311 Not my job to ignore them, someone wants to throw a bucket on your head or whatever these idiots want to do, it's not my responsibility to just ignore it.
@@kibi8311
Boy what are you talking about these clowns literary harass people for no reason and when the get hit they cry for help lol keep the same energy 😂🤡
@@anti-narc1343 who’s harassing most popular pranksters don’t do that it’s mostly if they engage they’ll be turned into content and most rational people will ignore them and call police or security im just saying that if you want to avoid death or a fight but I can obviously recognize that isn’t the case so if you got shot I don’t care it comes with doing it but at the same time people on the other end should just ignore them if they don’t want to be turned into content cause even if they get you on video you’ll probably just be a tiny minuscule part like a background person
What another example of a terrible father. Justifying and not condemning his sons actions.
Yeah, I immediately thought : so this is the idiot that raised that moron and OF COURSE he's defending his obnoxious behavior
I deeply apologize for the disparity of the incident itself but I must say that I'm not at 1 bit sympathetic to the guy pulling off the prank or his dad for not telling him to smarten up, and grow up. I've been saying every since pranking people on video started trending that someone was going to get hurt or it was going to cost them their lives behind this mess. And now that it happens everyone wants to throw a woe-is-me party for the person that's responsible for his own demise.
They call them 'pranks' but it's really just legitimized harassment and bullying.
Monetized harassment ...
I can understand a couple or friends playing jokes or pranks on each other. I don't understand bothering a stranger until they get mad...that's dumb and dangerous
Some are just straight up assault and some ppl still defend them
Most of these are assault
Lol he learned today!!
"we need healing, we need to come together"
sir your son was actively going around harassing strangers for clout lmao
Harassing people is correct.
He said he will not stop doing it so next time it will be permanent.
Everyone is not willing to be pranked especially those ones where you put a bucket on someone's head or run up on them with a mock barking dog.
Stupid.
@@nathanmerriman-dk9pf 🤡
Lol you sound like a immature Karen, your so pathetic
"There are two types of people in this world: those who want to be left alone, and those who won't leave them alone"
It's insane that prank channels are still a thing
Self depreciating(awkward) pranks are usually fine with me because its at the expense of the prankster.
His son was being a douche bag and got shot, "it's just a prank " doesn't mean you're free to harass people.
sonny boy got what was coming to him , just a punk
"You're annoying" doesn't mean I get to shoot you
Yeah and “This person is annoying me” doesn’t mean you’re free to shoot people. You people are weird as hell. Imagine living in a world where you can just shoot anyone that annoys you.
bro how is everyone so dumb?
Yes i hate prank content and yes filming someone is bad but can you FUC**ING SHOOT SOMEONE for it?
I can’t stand hearing those 4-words!
He isn't a victim, he went of his way to antagonize people for popularity. He got what deserved.... " it's just a prank"
With any luck he gets it again
Billy bob u get shot in the next day
@Shania Van der Halen or there's something wrong with you if the majority think he got his comeuppance. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.
He antagonized people? ok, tell us what he did in this particular instance.
.......what he did to deserve being shot.
Maybe tell the news agency too, because they haven't been told.....
...'cmon, tell us what went down.
Stupid people win stupid prizes.
It did not go wrong, it went right ! Hopeful that prank goes even better next time and the prankster gets to prank angels in heaven.
Or Satan and demons in hell
"He was trying to have fun with people" - his father is just as delusional. Getting pranked and recorded against your wishes is not fun to people.
You think THAT made him delusional? He said god saved his son. Don't bury the lead.
I said what I said - Strangers don’t think pranks are fun. Especially when someone is trying to humiliate them publicly and post it on the internet for everyone to see forever. Dad needs to redefine what he views as “fun”. I am sorry his annoying son got shot though.
The man is delusional, but asserting that based on the comment you quoted while ignoring his stated belief that the creator of the universe - whose existence is unproven - personally intervened to save his dumbass son (while ignoring, say, Ukraine) cites the arguable at the expense of the glaring.
Now he’s having fun in the hospital🎉
They aren't even pranks. There's harassment, bullying and many times defecation or theft.
It still amazes me that in these situations, the person who caused the issue is always the victim. Play stupid games. Win stupid prizes.
Only way shooting is justified is if the youtuber threatened his life, which he definitely didn't.
Well said.
Too bad he didn't win a bigger prize.
What amazes me is the assumptions people make, you haven't even seen the video; yet you assume he deserved to get shot.
You don’t even know what happened though.It could’ve been a lighthearted prank and the guy overreacted.At least wait until you know the facts.
God taught your son a lesson, people think they can harass anyone they want. They threaten, touch, sometimes assault innocent people. I’m truly surprised it doesn’t happen more.
God tried to. Unfortunately this is not even the wake up call Tanner needs. He was given a serious warning and a second chance, but he hasn't learned. It will take a lot more.
The dad straight up lied.
He got what he asked for.. these social media trolls are out of control messing with people.
Basically
I agree that some of these people who center their content around getting reactions out of innocent people just minding their business in public are annoying. But shooting people for it? Come damn on. Let's not act like that's okay. Or justifiable at all. He could've taken his life
Corrupt trash democrats!
@starrynightreader harassment isn't cool either. Listening to the fathers statement, the guy didn't want to be bothered, and they kept bothering him
@starrynightreader maybe that will be a wake up call for these clout chasers. Not sorry.
No one is obligated to participate in your pranks. It’s not fair to be walking through a mall or store and being subject to harassment all while being filmed.
You are a joke
Yeah, accept nobody deserves to be shot either, clown
The judge could have and should have set a precedent by letting the shooter walk and placing the prankster in prison for severe harassment, inciting violence, and wasting taxpayers' money.
This is a classic example of f**k around and find out.
This dad is so obnoxious. His son got what was coming to him.
Stay mad bozo smoking on your grandma pack 💨
Yup
@Creative Ideas by Me nah hell is just fine for him
It depends on what the guy who got shot did- we need more information about this.
He sounds like he sees no fault in his son.
Stop messing with people!! These prank videos are getting out of hand!
I hope that he recovers quickly and realizes the importance of treating others with respect and kindness. Failing to do so will only lead to negative consequences in his life.
He isn't, he intends to continue.
@ something, well this guy is going to wind up dead if he continues.
Hope the other dude rots in jail all his life
Hope he don't recover.
@lovelypuppyteddy we're talking about a shooter of course... right?
"victim" is not the word I would use for this person. 😊
Actions have consequences. Now hopefully he learned his lesson and will grow tf up.
That excuse for a man they call his father is the real reason this happened and why it's probably going to happen again...
Behave
@@DonutTeaBagle Make me
Bro you really think a prank is worth blasting someone for?
@@OJsLeftGlove imagine this, my comment was annoying right? so imagine you just shot me. it doesnt make sense you are aloowing killers
@@kigen6400, it's only a prank for the prankster. For everyone else it's just real life.
I’m glad nobody is speaking up for the TH-camr. I hope the so-called pranksters all learn from this
Sadly, they lack the intelligence to know better.
Except for his jack@ss dad
The video calls them a victim so unfortunately not everyone gets it.
These entitled brat do prank channels.
@@StelznerGamingwell dude got shot so yeah hes a victim no matter how much of a douchebag he is
I think TH-cam should not allow "prank" videos. They are mean spirited and just a form of bullying and harassment and are getting people hurt and killed.
To go from being the victim of a dumb prank, to being the suspect and arrested is definitely a twist. They should stop doing these pranks. I'm surprised this is the first time it's happened. Everybody doesn’t feel like playing with people's kids.
"I pray for this young man, I pray that he finds God", says the father. You should pray your son finds a better way to make a livin´
So true
"I'm a man of faith, it can't possibly be me that's the problem" Every single time.
And I pray that stop defending a man that shot another over a prank.
true that. that father's mind is as twisted as his son's.
@@Leedaheemz where do you draw the line between a prank and harassment/assault? If someone walks up on me, gets in my face, and won’t leave me alone when I ask them to is probably not gonna like my reaction.
The father: "they were interviewing him or talking to him then he pulled a gun out and shot my son".
Yeah you know fully well that isn't what happened and you are trying to downplay it. Your horrible son was harassing people then uploading them to TH-cam without their consent.
Your son got what he deserved.
I hope the courts regognize the fact that the man who shot tanner was not responding unpredictably to the prank. In fact, the opposite. Tanner's whole objective with the pranks are to get people upset. If nobody gets antagonized, he has no content. So the shooter's getting upset was a predictable and anticipated reaction to Tanner's actions. The shooter shouldn't be charged.
And I pray that the father gets a clue. Has he not seen what his son does? It’s only a matter of time before you mess with the wrong person. these pranks are not worth it.
Agreed!!! Especially when dealing with strangers!! You don’t know their background, their state of mind, and what they’re capable of doing to you and others!!!!
Like father, like son - idiots
The father created the creature. He should know he's part of the problem.
I have reported some of these videos to TH-cam. As far as I know there's not been any removed..
I have said for a long time someone is going to get hurt or killed over filming for filming crap like this just to get a click. This needs to be taken seriously.
This is awful. I feel so bad for this kid. I hope the judge or jury is super lenient
Got acquitted!
This reminds me of lesson my dad taught me as a kid. He reminded me that you have no idea what someone is going through at the time. They might have had a loss in their family, lost their job, had a breakup, are unstable mentally, etc. You never want to be the person that pushes someone to their limit, because you have no idea what that limit is or what will trigger (no pun intended) a disproportional reaction.
But harassing somebody DOES NOT mean they deserve to be shot. Otherwise you'd have dead
/insured sales staff littering the floors.
Yep
Wise counsel from your dad❤
@@ABC1701A Don't you think that depends on the harassment? Salesmen read people (better than this entitled kid) and know when to close it down. This kid was a jerk looking for a laugh and a paycheck and instead got lead. 2 wrongs do not make a right. Seems like this kid kept pushing the button.
@@ABC1701A no, harassment alone would not warrant someone getting shot but I think the point the OP is trying to make is that you gotta be careful when it comes to doing stuff like playing pranks on people. Chances are you’re gonna get that one person that overreacts and loses their temper. Yeah, the shooter is in trouble for this but it doesn’t leave that kid any less injured.
He is not a victim, but an antagonizer. He deserves what he got. His father: "having fun with people and the guy didn't like it...". 🙄
What’s wrong with you
It seems that his father had fun with him.😂
That's too bad.. I hope since this POS lived he can pay the lost salary of the victim he was harassing!
He was asked many times to stop….we don’t have all the details as to what he was doing to the poor door dash guy but if u make someone feel threatened for their life then u risk the lead. I hope he’s also charged and I hope the victim wins in court…(the shooter)
Damn that sucks. I feel bad for Allan (the shooter) for being sent to jail for something he didn’t provoke
What!!??
He shot someone because he was annoyed, he is clearly a threat to the public and likely deserves to be in jail.
It’s sick. Could happen to anyone! Going to jail because some nuts attacked you and say”it’s just a prank!” Low trust society is collapsing
@@cobanus2862 No it couldn’t “happen to anyone.” Hardly anyone is going to react to being annoyed by someone by shooting them point blank. If you could see that happening to you, then you need some serious help.
@@cobanus2862 what are you smoking brudda

He got what he deserved. Play stupid games win stupid prizes!
The dad is delusional. Privileged upbringing at its finest.
Doing a prank video on a stranger, what could go wrong?
Who would have thought?
@@deva190 Not this guy apparently.

I love that the aggressor is now the poor sad victim.
Viewers here have similar reactions. Why is the victim being charged?
Self defend is legally justified.
Watch classified goons n see for yourself if the shi he be doing is aggressive
@@zayybandoo Some of it looks aggressive and scary. Trying to steal people's groceries and he traumatized that woman. Who knows what the most recent prank was supposed to be? I'm waiting for the video footage release once the trial/ trials happen.
He is, he is a victim of attempted murder, not even close to the case of self defense
This is why I have no hope for humanity
Surprising that the perpetrator of this incident who is the prankster now plays victim
According to the father all his son was doing was interviewing this guy, and the guy just shoots him. Nah, something else was going on, we have all seen these prank videos that take things way too far.
probably physically assaulted him. Many of these are idiots throwing things at their victims.
I was thinking the same thing, these pranks are getting outta hand.
@@pokerzyngaa7695 yeah with titles like filming in peoples faces, taking tennis rackets from players, and fake vomiting on uber drivers hes wicked chill.
@@robertcool5216 None of which justify using deadly force.Losing a tooth or two?Sure.But definitely not getting shot and potentially dying over.
@@BrooklynBalla him getting shot and getting his teeth knocked out would have shared the same result. He's still obnoxious and learned nothing.
They think it's funny doing pranks😂😂😂, people don't think so .
That dad needs a wake up call, he still doesn't even seem to be taking it seriously
The victim is sitting in jail right now.
Had to happen as these jerk offs think they can do anything to anyone then say "It's just a prank' The gun shot was just a prank too.
It’s bad enough that his pranks suck but to hear that he’s gonna live is the most depressing thing about this story
I was interested to hear about how the victim Alan Colie was dealing with everything. Strangely they only spoke to the perpetrator Tanner Cook's family & mistakenly called him the victim. The true victim Alan did not ask for anything that happened to him, he did not instigate it, only responded in self defence to the harassment when it was escalating & his plees for the perpetrator to stop were ignored. I hope the perpetrator can mature & find something more productive to do with his life.
Prank videos are victimizing events, and pranksters, especially here in the USA, have gotten a bit too comfy with doing crap to others without consequence. It was bound to happen sooner or later. And the dad justifying his son's crappy behavious is a testament to the level of respect he has for others. Making fun others does not equate to "having fun."
He just got lucky this time around.
PSA for news outlets: why not make an article/video on how pranksters victimize people, oftentimes without consequence?????
Keep in mind one of this guys most popular style of pranks, is attempting to rob people at stores. Hopefully this taught him a lesson, because it’s pretty obvious by how his dad was defending him, that his father has never held him accountable for anything in his life.
Too bad that his attempts to rob people "for a prank" did not lead to him being caught by security and charged with theft.
Right is you walk up to me and tell me I need to give you my possessions. If I think you're robbing me I'm not waiting for you to pull a weapon out. You can tell he just picks people who he doesn't think will fight him.
I carry a knife
Warning: I’m telling u know Tanner don’t fk wit me
You’ll arrive dead by knife woundS.
Preach it
@@gobot581 To be fair, I’ve seen some of his videos, he literally just asks employees if he can stuff things in suitcases and only pay for the suitcase. Have yet to see a video where they put someone in physical danger. You should be grown enough to understand that it’s the only situation in which you would need to defend yourself with a weapon. They play harmless dumb pranks on people, the best I’ve seen is one where he himself starts to question why the guy is recording and gets people to rally with him against the camera man while making funny facial expressions. The only prank I’ve seen that were disrespectful was one where they tried cutting in line at a fair.
I'm going to be honest...some of these pranksters deserve it. If you see the videos, they pull some of the most disrespectful things to people that may be dealing with their personal demons. Don't prank strangers!
hopefully someone in Gov/TH-cam/TicTok makes some serious changes of what kind of content is not allowed - they were being jerks and harassing strangers for "likes" and these platforms allowed and paid them for it. I blame Cook and his creepy cronies - but I equally blame these online platforms for doing NOTHING to cure it.
They’re not doing anything physical though. If someone is taking your time/disrespecting you, the normal adult thing is to walk away or tell whoever’s in charge to help you.
Crazy how y’all will fault the victim over someone who shot a kid for making TH-cam videos.
@@peterlongprong7521 you blame Cook? As in Tim Cook? The CEO of Apple, which is not a social media platform and has absolutely nothing to do with prank videos?
@@dylosama some of these “pranksters” do physically harass people though, I’ve seen videos where they put their hands on people, grab their phones or purses and run away, follow people to their car, chase them, etc. It may very well be that the shooter was the victim or something like that and he felt that his life was in danger
and he had to defend himself, more will come out I’m sure.
@@bebop2523 clearly bebop - you're NOT the brightest crayon in the box - the TH-cam Pranksters name is Tanner Cook - you would know that if you bothered to watch the video or news report - instead of making wild assumptions.
His yt channel “Classified Goons” one of their pranks was “Stealing peoples groceries” yea, i can see how someone would shoot the dummies.
calling him victim is like calling the 3 guys on the train in the joker movie victims.
Gee, you mean that some people don’t think being robbed is fun? Your idiot son tried stealing from someone with a gun. WTF do you think would happen? That guy that shot him should be free.
I would donate to a GoFundMe for the prank victim. Prank videos are nothing but cyber bullying. You should be able to defend yourself from any type of bullying.
Life is not a prank. Stop thinking the virtual world will makes you immune to reality. Not everyone is going to react just in time for you to say "It's a Prank!" before things get real. Prank your friends, family members and keep strangers out of it.
The father is in denial, his son is directly responsible for his actions. You play a stupid game, you win a stupid prize.
moral of the story: you play stupid games you win stupid prices
Leave people alone!
The youtuber wasn’t interviewing the dude. He was just straight up putting his phone in the guy’s face. Dude told him to stop, pushing this dudes phone out of his face. Idiot kept coming at him. Is he lucky he survived, definitely. And hopefully he uses this as a proper learning experience to not prank everyone he sees. Hopefully he stops pranking all together.
This is a great analogy for modern life: annoying parasites will push you, push you, and push you until you react...then you're the bad guy.
Prankster got exactly what he deserved, I hope defendant receives the lightest sentence. I think when the pranksters channel is classified goons it goes to show they’re hoodlums.
First check out his channel then call him a hoodlum you absolute waste of space.
Idk if that dude has a gofundme but I’m down to send him twenty. Let this kid be a lesson.
This is why you should leave people alone. I'm surprised this isn't happening more. These so called pranks have become old and have never been funny.
Stories like these make my day. People are stressed and you dont know what is going on in their life. Pranks like Calvin are cool, but these "hood" pranks need to stop.
The person who gets shot isn't always the "victim". Seems the "victim" was the aggressor and just ruined someone else's life for a "joke".
Recently I saw a video of people pranking strangers in public. I commented it won't be funny when someone gets shot. And here we are.
While some call it a prank others call it disrespect! Stop playing with people you don’t know!!! By the way,free that man!
Free him for shooting him? Dude didn’t even do anything bad harmless prank the crackhead freaked out hope u get fucked up man
There is law. No matter what happens, you don't have the right to shoot someone. What the hell are we? Animals? Imagine making small talk with a stranger and getting shot because said stranger didn't like it, not to mention the emotional damage and distress that people in the mall experienced.
Some of these so called pranks are assault.
@@Alharbi-lf3ss i HIGHLY doubt we are being told the entire truth from the biased father of the eejit who got what was coming to him

I'd like to see the full context of the situation. X to doubt he would shoot this kid for no reason.
Dad you should have taught your son better. They are not “having fun” they are HARRASSING people. Talk to him to prank his friends and stop harassing people.
No accountability from the prankster? Not everyone is playing your game. The prankster is responsible.
depends on the prank, thats f'ed up just to shoot someone bro

"Victims" family. Lol yeah, he's the victim of a low IQ. Probably runs in the family. The only thing that could have made this better is if after he's arraigned, in court, when cook is talking about the pain he had to endure, and the thought of dying, and possibly having ptsd, and the fact he's gonna have to change to a low fat diet his whole life now that he has no gallbladder, the guy turns to him, smiles and says, It was just a prank bro.
You never know what someone might be going through when you decide to prank them. Imagine your marriage falling apart or losing a child or a parent and then having someone trying to prank you for "views."
you have no right to shoot someone harmless 😂
@Elrique Dolf I completely agree but do you understand the difference between what someone "doesn't have the right to do" and what someone "is willing to do"? Those are two very different things and while you're laying on the ground with a bullet wound in your chest screaming at someone "you had no right to do that", I'm going to be elsewhere, minding my own business and NOT laying on the ground with a bullet wound in my chest screaming "you had no right". Food for thought.
ABSOLUTELY. This kid made a mistake with a stranger and he got one in the stomach, in this case a bullet
@@elriquedolf fine line between harmless and harmful. The real victims here are the ones being pranked, they don’t know if it’s a real fight or flight situation and the pranksters are the ones putting them in those situations.
I would go even further and say when I'm out in public, I'm not there for the amusement of some punk ass kid or so some punk ass kid can use me to make money on TH-cam. I don't mess with people when I'm out in public and I really don't want to be messed with... I'm guess everyone who has very little sympathy for the guy that got shot feels the exact same way. Honestly, I'm surprised there are not more youtubers laying up in the hospital ot buried based on some of the things I seen on the internet. I had assumed the pranks had to be staged since the pranksters were not beat to a pulp shot... now I'm not so sure.
I’m surprised TH-camrs haven’t been shot before with all those pranks

It’s crazy how they put the guy defending himself in such a bad light. Then the video of what actually happened gets released.
Social media is the downfall of humanity! These people out shooting videos and pulling pranks…people are on edge already….you need to stop! What YOU think is all fun and games….others do not.
Imagine some stranger bumping into you on the street then reaching for a gun and making you believe you were about to be shot and killed. Surprise! That trauma forced upon your mind is okay, because it’s just a prank! Actually, it’s called Menacing and it’s a crime not a prank.

Those advocating for the shooter ... educate yourself about Michael Drejka - who's serving a 20 year prison sentence for manslaughter. The self-appointed "handicapped parking space monitor" harassed a mom parked illegally. Her bf exited the nearby convenience store and intervened, forcefully shoving Drejka to the ground. Drejka, who was licensed to carry, then shot her bf dead. He claimed immunity under FL's "stand your ground" law, which was rejected - as it was unreasonable for him to feel his life was in danger
I had a family member in the mall during the event and to think that this idiot is being called a “victim”, the victims were the people who were there and their families who are still traumatized. He needs to be charged
I love that they put an innocent picture of the prankster 😂
“My baby don’t do nuttin”😂 😂
Or he just had a bad day and also suffers from affluenza, your honor 🤣
@@willgruwellStop trolling loser 😂
The yt version. 😂
@Black Brains Flunk Racist Maff. Affluenza is something you dimwitted black dolts will never suffer from.
Lmao i was like lmao
Have fun? Bro, your son is harassing random people .
Aggravated malicious wounding is charged as a Class 2 felony, which carries a potential life sentence or a term sentence of not less than 20 years, plus a potential fine of up to $100,000.
That other woman who said other people will also have trauma from this. How do you think the stressed people the "prankster" picks on feel after they get harassed, filmed or get their groceries stolen after hard days at work? Got what he deserved.
Seeing someone get shot, deserving or not can be traumatizing for onlookers. Also, imagine you're at the mall and you hear gunshots. You're probably gonna assume that there's a mass shooting. That time of panic and fear can be traumatizing for people. The "prankster" is the cause and I think he deserved the lambasting and I even think he deserves demonetization, but I don't think he deserved to be shot. The shooter has to shoulder some responsibility. You can't shoot someone for making you mad. I have a gun myself and I have had people cuss me and insult me and I've never drawn it. I wouldn't ever draw it cause someone said something I disliked. I have my pistol as a last resort in a life and death situation. That's what it's for.
@@KairhanosGaming So a mentally disturbed person who resorts to guns has to consider the feeliings of bystanders, but Tanner never has to consider anyone else's feelings?
@@KairhanosGaming depends on what the prank was. I heard he tried to pretend rob the guy
Assaulting a stranger is not a prank it's a crime
They say they dont hold anger or bitterness towards the shooter but will still press charges 😂
Well done. People are tired of putting up with these clowns.
1:54 he means harassing the public.
having fun with people is not the same as messing with people. smh
It's not your intention, but others' reactions. It might be fun to the doer but not fun to the receiver.
E.g: Someone pull your pants down, fun for the person pulling but not fun for the person whose pants are being pulled down..
Shooting a prankster who is a complete stranger to you should be treated the same as self-defense. Mess with the wrong person you get what you deserve. If you die, you die. You sealed your fate.
Jesus Christ so many of you have lost your minds. It's literally ridiculous that you think a prankster deserved to get shot or got what's coming to him. If the prankster did not physically harm the other person, they should not be shot. It's basically a kid, he's 21 years old, still responsible for his own actions and I'm not trying to excuse them but there's no way that he deserved to get shot. You guys are actually insane.
Leave people alone or you will get hurt. You don't have a right to prank anyone and record it. Stay out of the malls, Walmart, and Target etc. There was a young woman who passed out and ended up in the hospital after someone at Target put a bucket on her head to record it. Doing your pranks is hazardous to your health. The pranksters have too much time on their hands. They need to spend some time locked up in jail or prison while they reflect on their poor life choices.
Darwin certificate issued, award comes next kid! You are Pre- certified!
So kid was harassing people to make video. Someone being harried didn't like it , but entitled kids surrounded him and continued video'ing and pulling crap on him...
What did they expect? Flowers and candy ? Why is it ok to F^&k with people and then act surprised at a violent outcome?
Mixed feelings on this issue, sad for kid but HE, created the situation that almost killed himself! Darwin award next time.
Sympathy is misplaced, it should go to the victim of the prank.
