@@agoddamnferret of they got away with it once they can can do it again. Beside most of them time bullies and think the and just continue to bullies others. Even more so if they find a privous victim.
@@agoddamnferret The insane logic of bullies - they believe that they can bully you in any way possible - if not with their fists, force you to do something that you would never consider doing - if a teacher or whatever catches them (they usually do it out of sight), the bully or bullies might get punishment that the school allows - then they have the chutzpah to blame their victim because the victim “got them punished” - if they had left the victim well alone, then they would have been fine - but they had to bully!
@@agoddamnferret I think its because op standing up here was the first time he had face something like that. How the bully operates makes me believe he has done that to countless others in jobs where they don't take that serioulsy until this one right here.
Story 1: Schools and parents that don’t take bullying seriously are setting up the bullies to have legal trouble as adults when they can’t use the excuse of being kids anymore. Good on OP for using the systems in place to deal with this stuff. Hopefully this will slap some sense into the bully before he ruins the rest of his life.
This is why I'm thankful my HS over 15yrs ago actually helped me take the girl who set my hair on fire to court. They technically for reasons couldn't just expel her.. there was circumstances which needed approval from the education department to have her expelled. They also as far as I am aware due to the court situation, noted the situation on her files so basically no public or private school would accept her, they tried to counter us over this. She had to go to a remediation school. My satisfaction level was high when she got a job under me in my workplace, then tried the bullying via rumours which basically alluded to I was statutory raped by foster parents. Never happened. Watching her have to clean out her desk and the screaming fit she had, was amazing.
This is also why school shootings have become so common. The bullied kid feels like no one supports them and they have no other choice. I was a bullied kid and as an adult when I heard about Columbine, I remember thinking, I understand why that happened. I had good parents that had my back but if I didn’t and I had access to a weapon I might have gone down that road.
I once saw comic that had two people chatting on a couch while some rugrats were running amok. One says to the other "We don't discipline them; we figure society will do that when they move out."
Dashcams for everything! I've got a brand new motorbike here, not going to ride it until the new camera system gets installed. First time I ever got a dashcam I managed to record a police car crashing into a safety barrier, distracted driver trying to operate all his electronics and drive at the same time.
That was pretty quick thinking of how to make do without one though. If I ever end up driving in the states I might have to get one though after seeing so many of theses sorts of stories on here.

Yeah atleast the employer took it seriously in the end. Had a similar incident afew years back and the employer did nothing. That is until after I went to the police instead of having lunch and they showed up before I even got back there demanding to talk to the guy regarding assault and wilful damage. At which point they fired both of us for fighting, so I then successfully did them for wrongful dismissal.
@@devonbotney2762 it's far to long to write up here. If you're really that interested I can probably find the case ruling on line still. It features in legal text books and is touched on in employment law lectures here.

They were very uncommon. The data storage tech wasn't advanced enough to keep much video, even at relatively low resolution. As @Alang says, the ones that did exist were super bulky and expensive
@@zigedelic3909 huh? Back then 6+h tapes were very common ... The cameras were bulky, the storage containers were not (well, they were compared to a micro SD card, but compared to hard disks providing enough digital storage for even give minutes of uncompressed video data they were tiny)
The first Disney movie on DVD was Mary Poppins. That was in 1998. A lot of the technology things we're used to nowadays (smart phones, light-weight laptops, 1080p monitors, fitness watches, etc.) are things from the past fifteen years. Things we have nowadays were largely unfathomable to most people back then. All the technological advancements we've made in 20 years really add up, and it takes a significant perspective shift to grasp that fact. Hell, 360-degree cameras didn't make it to the general consumer market until just a few years ago! I remember when a group at PAX West held a panel on the *theoretical* proposition of tetherless VR; and now it exists! Technology has advanced so rapidly that it's hard to fathom.
@@brag0001 SD cards were only invented in the late 2000s. During the 90s, we are still using floppy disks and VHS tapes. And the floppy disks cannot even store videos.
Story 1. The sad thing about bullys is that his glory days were 20 years ago and he was trying to get that feeling of "success" again. This does not condone that type of behavior. I hope he lost his job, benefits, wife, kids, pets etc etc over this. What a small person. Props to OP for not decking the creep
The guy called the days spent in highschool bullying OP "the good ol' days" and threatened to make OP's wife leave him by spreading false rumors. This man does not have a wife or kids, and if he does, I bet it wasn't because he genuinely found someone to love, he probably knocked up some chick he was fooling around with and had no choice but to marry her to take responsibility or else her parents would hunt him down and make him pay. But let's be real here, he definitely doesn't have a wife because what self respecting woman would lower her standards enough to date this pathetic man-child?
Story 2: Stuff like that is why I _own_ a dashcam. Two, in fact. Recently upgraded to ones with backup cameras, and put the backups on the roof pillars on the front of the car, looking out to the side. So even if I get side-swiped, I'll have it on film. lol
What surprises me is that these aren't standard options at this point. Even on low end model vehicles. Having watched a number of collision videos on TH-cam, the fast majority seem to be from Europe and Russia. Which is odd as you would expect more in the US because we have more vehicles on the roads. But when you see how badly people drive you begin to understand why they are so popular. I'll openly admit that I've considered getting them from my vehicles. It is only a matter of time before insurance companies offer rebates for dash cams in the vehicles.
@@superdave8248 Someone said in one of those video comments that Russians put dashcam on their cars because the level of frauds (such as in the story) that happen there is very high.
Story 2: I will not condone fabricating circumstances of an incident, but in this case I suppose the end did justify the means. You did put a wannabe scam artist in her place and made sure that you did not pay for her criminal misdeeds. Stories like this is why I am a big believer in traffic surveillance.
Yeah, better to fabricate circumstances than to get the full blame for an accident you didnt cause and have other things put on top of that too. And you're basically just outconning a con artist so there's that I guess
I had hoped that in the first story OP was gonna say "and then I pressed stop recording" cause that would've been a fantastic turn that they were recording the whole thing. Always record when you think you're in danger.
@@Rhaenarys it would've been even cooler if he'd taken his phone out and shown the guy with a grin. I mean it would've made things worse, but it's be such a move. 😎
@@AmusementLabs He would have had to live-upload it to somewhere online in case the bully responded by stealing his phone, although given the security cameras, that would probably have led to more criminal charges for him.
Yep, another exNavy sailor here. Approaching main gate at NorVa one night, a car gets nearly to the gate, then reverses quickly nearly hitting me! I asked the gate guards if they saw that? They did.
Wow. 4 military men in the same comment thread Y'all should go grab a drink with one another and share crazy ass stories during your time serving sometimes (Despite I know that all of you good sirs are not in the same place, like at all)
I'm impressed the OP in that last story came up with such a clever plan so quickly, because there's not a lot you could do otherwise, the evidence is pretty heavily against you in such a situation.
Story One: some people keep living in their school days because that's where they 'peaked' and it's all a loss of facade and power when it's time to live in the 'real world'! Bravo OP.
It reminds me of this line from the Paramore song "Ain't it Fun?": Don't go crying to your mama, cause you're all alone in the real world. And that's how I think bullies like these end up self destructing. Back in their school days, they could pull this behavior with no fear because they'd just have mommy and daddy bail them out. But now that they're adults, they don't seem to understand until it's too late that their actions have consequences.
A friend of mine told me a little story that might make you laugh. Turns out he was driving home one night ( around 10.30 PM (ish ) and he'd witnessed an 'accident'.( Similar story to OP in the last story )...except...that the car at the back was an UNMARKED POLICE CAR! The whole thing had been caught on camera. My friend said he burst into laughter seconds after the collision...when the officers in the rear car flicked their blue lights on and then climbed out of the car putting their uniform hats on as they did so ! He did stop and offer to give a statement ( which the cops took) but Oh Karma...I do love you so !
I love watching clips of that kind of thing happening lol. Wish everyone who tries this would get cursed to always end up targetting a police vehicle no matter how random they try to go..
Story 1: two ways to deal with bullies who never grew up: 1- ignore the idiot, 2-go sociopath on them and destroy their lives. Choice 2 always is the most satisfying.
The bullying story reminds me of how I visited the town where I was born and met my primary school bully again. She used to toss me into these garbage dumpsters behind the school and say things like "trash belongs in the trash" and "stay in the trash where you belong" stuff like that. Surprisingly, she recognised me first and apologised about everything. Apparently her parents had divorced during that time and she had undiagnosed anger issues. I forgave her because she was so sincere with her apology and we are now still friends to this day
I remember a youtube video of dashcam footage, where a driver trying to run an Insurance fraud scam backed into a car and started yelling about police and how dare they drive right into their backend, that they would sue. Driver of the car that was hit pointed to his dashcam footage and the scammer stopped dead in his tracks and ran to his car to flee the scene. Some idiots. And I imagine if OP'd had a Dash Cam, then the girl in the red car would have been equally screwed and proven in the wrong. Why did she think the cops would cooperate with her scam with a sob story and screw someone else just because she gave them a hallmark movie script.
It happens.....the scammers count on people making snap judgments without knowing all the facts. And the fact that she claimed dude had a tire iron would have had the cops already against OP...... and you notice from the story the cop was.....the cop originally approached OP expecting OP to get up and do stuff even before he checked OP's eyelid and decided he was unconscious, and that was when the cop calmed down and started assessing the situation. The scammers count on that stuff. OP is lucky they got out of the car and heard her start to lie, because if he hadn't then he wouldn't have known to ditch the tire iron nor would he know to "play opposum" and then the cop wouldn't have believed that he was just standing there patiently waiting. So glad OP heard her
If I ever meet someone from my high school who was a jerk and they try to do stuff to me, I'll just pretend like I don't know them. I think some of the best revenges are success, and making it seem as they were so insignificant in your life that you don't even remember their name
My favorite revenge was karma. Bitch making fun of me for being a chubby kid now is the size of someone on my 600 pound life with a kid and a drug addict husband. Lmfao
Story 2: Since the tires squealed as she pulled the scam, there would be skid marks on the pavement indicating her quick reversal that would also give her away...marks in front of the tires and none behind them which would happen if she stopped suddenly from going forward.
@@kristhebrownie they didn't really need to because after dealing with the guy, their first priority, and then seeing his truck was in reverse, there was enough evidence already. But yea. If it was unclear still to the cops, that def should've been the next thing they looked for. I think at the time, the medical emergency was just top of their head, statements after, evidence last, and didn't need to get that far.
Story 2: GET A DASH CAM! Seriously, everyone should have a dash cam in their car. Hell, new cars have cameras as a factory OPTION. Cover your asses, people. Get a dash cam. Get two so you can one one in the back window as well.
Way too many crazies out there I've got a dash cam and another here at the house should the 1st fail. No way is anyone pulling a con on me. BTW, in the story here, the blond floored it in reverse, there was, according to OP a squeal of tires, that's going to leave a distinctive and oddly reverse shaped mark on the street.
With so many people having dash cams, and so many businesses having cameras, even intersections have traffic cameras, why are people still trying this crap? Good for him though, the ability to think on your feet is an ability not that many people have.
@@dinascharnhorst6590 Just when I thought that people could not possibly be any more stupid, I'm proven wrong yet again. I want to say surely they wouldn't do it to a police car, but I'm not sure anymore.
Even worse: Trying it with a vehicle that *will* kill you. Someone slammed the brakes in their little hatchback on a highway onramp, in front of my half-ton truck. If I hit at anywhere near the ~60mph that we were going at, my *engine* would be occupying his *driver seat.* Trucks tend to go up and over in a crash, even when slightly lowered. However... My truck has the towing package. Including oversized, beefed up disc brakes on all 4 wheels. They're meant to stop >16000 lbs without undue trouble, so my 7000 lb empty truck stopped almost as fast as the hatchback did. He seemed to be waiting for impact, and didn't seem to register what was happening until I squeezed past and pegged the throttle. I saw some rude gestures, and then he was gone, left in the dust. I didn't have a phone with me, and had no way to report the dude. He had one of those super-tinted license plate covers, so I didn't even have a plate number to send in. Honestly, in hindsight, that vehicle looked like it was purposely set up for fraud. There were basically no identifying features left on that car; even the paint looked generic, that dust-covered red that only hatchbacks regularly have.
The last story reminds me of a short story called "The Unicorn in the Garden" by humorist James Thurber. In the story, a couple is in an unhappy marriage. The husband tells his wife that there is a unicorn in the garden, so she calls a mental hospital to come and get him. When the nice young men arrive in their clean white coats, the husband simply denies saying there was a unicorn in the garden, and the wife ends up being taken away to the mental hospital...
When I was 20 I went back to the town I was picked on. Had the luck of seeing one of my high school bullies. I tried to let sleeping dogs lie, but he decided to pull a stunt. I don't think he'll be having kids because I kicked them in his throat. Left him laying on the ground at the local pizza hut. Got on my bike and left. I was grinning all the way back to my house.
11:40 That's the exact reason I have a dashcam and have had one for years... Driving CMV's for years has taught me people will do stupid things and then blame it on the 40 ton truck that can't stop on a dime... The dashcam has saved my bacon multiple times over the years...
Point about dash cams. If you are prone to making mistakes you might not want to get one. Also never delete anything from the dashcam. If you are found to have one and delete anything from it the judge can either assume it proved you guilty or instruct a jury to assume it proved you guilty.
@@kitarrah1422 correct. Keep it just in case months later someone claims that you hit them during that trip to the grocery store....you need proof it was uneventful
@@kitarrah1422 my sisters coworker got accused for rear ending someone in the supermarket car park. He had been working for 6 hours already, the lady had tried to pull a scam and smashed into him but the cameras show that he hadn’t moved all day.
You can fight the "assume it proved you guilty" order if you've got a pattern of deleting *everything* that's, for example, over a week old (and doesn't show an accident/near accident, obviously). A valid habitual practice to have, especially if your camera can only store so much recorded footage before it overwrites the oldest stuff (so you don't even need to actively delete anything, it does it for you), or worse, just stops recording (my friend got dicked over by his dashcam hitting the 72-hours-of-footage limit and just shutting off a day or so before he got into a major wreck, and it shut off without any indication that it wasn't recording besides a single, very quiet, beep that he only knows about now that he's read the instruction manual's fine print). And this is assuming your case is "this whole series of events never happened, I don't know who this person is, I didn't get into any accidents or near-accidents that day". If it's "she reversed into me at a stoplight" then yeah, that's more of an issue. You'd be expected to have downloaded, saved, and saved backups of that footage ASAP.
Well, he did say OP would love to get some revenge, didn't he? It seems he wanted OP to try and get revenge, and in the end, he got exactly what he wanted.
That is really why I bought a dashcam. One time I was sitting in a streetside parking lot and a guy in a lifted F-350 backet straight over my hood. It was very difficult to get insurance to pay for that.
Honestly, the last schoolyard bully I had turned around and left without a word. I answered the front door with a shotgun in my hand. Some backstory: The church they went to had gotten a new preacher (not sure the denomination) who went on at length that non-religious people are an existential threat to the world. How anyone that isn't religious isn't human, so killing (us) is no different than destroying rabid animals. And so on. The congregation had him removed within a month (possibly with force, didn't ask for or get any details there), but his words stuck with a few of my classmates. As such, they hated my existence for not being religious. As well as looking down on my religious friends as 'tainted' for associating with an 'animal'. Years after graduation, when one of them showed up at my doorstep, my immediate suspicion was that they wanted to make good on their threats. As police response times are awful in the countryside, I knew that I was on my own here, and I reacted accordingly. I still don't know if he was there to cause trouble or to make amends. I really don't care, neither one is particularly welcome here. The closest he can come to making amends is to no longer exist in my life. And starting trouble is... *Ill-advised.*
I've been an insurance adjuster and I tell every single person I know to get dash cams for both the front and back. it's not just for things like this--accidents in which one person merges into another person's lane are often he said/she said and nobody gets paid or gets their damages taken care of except through their own company. Always always always have a dash cam.
As a former insurance agent I always recommend dash cams, I've bought everyone in my family one for that reason. I've also had it save me. I was at a red light when I was rear ended. You can actually see in the video that she was not looking at the road, she was looking at her passenger. When the police arrived she claimed she didn't really hit me and that I was exaggerating. I waited for her to finish then I pointed out the dash cam to the cop and showed him the video. the video clearly showed that I had been stopped for roughly 2 minutes at the light and that she wasn't looking and rear ended me hard. He took the video back, showed her, and asked if she wanted to change her statement. She glared at me big time but backed down. thankfully I wasn't badly injured but I was glad to have proof of what happened!!
I live in a small town in Ontario. This backing into people doesn't happen here! Mainly because there is a really good certainty the guy you are trying to scam will get out of his car, and beat the crap out of you first, before the police are even called.
Story 2: brilliant acting! 🏆👏 There are well-known Hollywood actors who might not have been able to pull that off convincingly, and OP managed to convince both the police officer and the paramedic! 👍
First story ending: "The county charged him" This means it came from the Sheriffs office. That can land the guy in county jail, under supervision of the deputies. For a felony like that he can easely get 60 days of community work, under supervision by deputies. Depending on the State that he did this. In Arizona he will be picking up trash next to a highway, supervised by armed deputies.
The bully of the first story opened a gigantic can of worms. It's called slander. All OP has to do is get solid proof the guy is telling those 'fairy' tales.
@@merlinathrawes746 Statute of limitations on slander is far, far longer than a couple of months (OP stated that this happened a couple of months ago at 0:36) and it being 20 years ago doesn't matter when one of the slanderous things is him getting expelled for sexual assault - that'd be a mark on his permanent record, and would probably also have resulted in a police report, so if neither exists, it's pretty easy to prove that that assault and subsequent expulsion didn't happen, ergo, slander.
@@merlinathrawes746 Okay, apparently you can't differentiate between the things lied about and the lies spread. It doesn't matter that the bully spread lies about things that supposedly happened 20 years ago. What matters is, that he slanders _now_ !
I would have definitely gotten SB down for slander/defamation of character. I had an old coworker who tried to pull that stunt. But I am a firm believer that those who try to harm me shall receive karma. She fell down the stairs the day after. She was 60+. I was 28. Funny thing is she told customers that I was a drunk junkie who rather get wasted than take care of my own child. All false. But I did learn that the old man who would hang around my job during her shifts was actually one of her johns. This lady was a senior citizen escort. Bruh.
Story 2: OP outsmarted that scammer real good with that quick thinking of his and I do believe that this happened in the 90's so dash cams were probably expensive back then. Keep up the good work DarkFluff
I was also bullied at school, it is hard. I remember my grade 10 leaves picnic. And one of most bullies said she was going punch me in the face. And I said go ahead and stood my ground, she backed off.
Bullies in high school has been going on since Moses wore short pants however most of the bully stories I've heard of the bully usually grows up by the time they're an adult and turns over a new leaf. This one obviously didn't. That means definitely he's still a child in his mind.
OOHHH that last story.. The insurance adjustor in me made me so happy. Except intentional acts aren't covered under insurance policies, so I'm really skeptical about it.
Okay guys, just curious. Is Stevo like an aler ego of Fluff's? Are Fluffy and Stevo the same person i.e. different people trapped inside the same body? 😁
The scam story well the types of dashcams in the 1990's were really expensive and very inaccurate in the vision just the vehicle moving would cause the dashcam to move around so if he had one it would have been a no show for the accident lmao.
The first story reminds me of the scene in “Grosse Pointe Blank” where Cusack’s character lays it out for the school bully from HS (not that this is the same dynamic, just made me laugh) that it’s not HS anymore and “there IS no ‘US’” and dude needs to get a life because despite Mr. High School Bully Narcissist thinking his former enemies/victims still think about/fear him and his ignoble BS from 20 years ago, the truth follows a different path.
I do contractor work so from time to time I run into people I knew in high school. In one such occurance an old bully thought he could get me fired and sent to jail by spreading rumor and lies like he did in high school. Let us just say he lost his job, 401k, pention, union card, he lost everything and was stranded in france. ; All cars should have a dash and rear camera installed because those have save my family, me, and friends from being scammed and/or falsely accused of accidents.
I have heard the last story before, But I love hearing it every time, Pretty sure OP mentioned it happened in the 90s, not sure dash cams were a thing then
Also you also know it had to happen back in the day because he didn't talk about the airbag hitting him in the face. So you are correct that a dash cam was probably not an option for this situation
The fact that that guy was even able to smash his own face into the steering wheel is impressive. I don't think I would actually be physically capable of doing something to intentionally harm myself like that. I'm naturally pain avoidant.
The insurance scam sounds like the ‘80s or ‘90s type of situation. There were no air bags going off, which might have explained a bloody nose after airbags were a thing.
I completely disagree. A dashcam would have made the last story hella boring. OP was quick thinking and pulled off a REAL pro revenge with perfection. ::Chefs kiss::
Last story: EXCELLENT job OP...the Karen got what was coming to her. Guess she lost her license after that!!! Just recently installed dashcams in both our cars after seeing all the dashcam videos here on TH-cam.
They did but they were hella bulky, hella ugly, and rarely used. My dad had a company car and they had these big ugly cameras installed on the windshield.
Heard a story how a woman was waiting at a turn lane for a sucker to come up. Another care was sitting in a parking lot or something and was trying out their new phone. They were recording when the woman put her car in reverse and floored it into a car that had pulled in behind her. Three men jumped out of her car and went over to a sidewalk. The cops were called and the woman said he backed into her and her three friends lied and said, we were walking down the road and saw the whole ordeal officer. The man with the new phone walked over and told the cops that these four were lying through their teeth and he had recorded the whole accident on his cellphone. The look of horror on the four faces made the cop jump at the chance to see the evidence. He called for backup to come and help arrest four suspects in a insurance scam, making a false report to police, false reporting and reckless driving. It was insane and that guy with the video evidence said that poor guy from a insurance scam. During the trial it also came out that this woman had numerous rear end collisions with multiple cars and trucks and she had to admit it was all an insurance scam. Glad she is off the streets.
I used to work for car insurance and fraudulent claims is one of those things that make it harder for someone to get insured and that company should have cancelled her policy and made her pay for the damage to both cars and for the ambulance call out (if it's in a country where you pay for your own medical bills). Making fraudulent claims on an insurance policy is a crime and you could go to prison for it, and if not you will get a fine and have to tell all of your future insurance companies why you have had that policy cancelled and they can refuse to insure you on that basis.
Story 1: It’s as if the bully only watched the first half of Back to the Future and thought “man, Biff Tannen is so amazing and I’m gonna be just like him”, and doesn’t bother watching til the end when things don’t go his way.
He probably thought a time machine was the only way stop a bully from being successful, cuz before the time machine biff was doing better than Marty's dad.
Funny thing about most bullies is they travel in a pack, and they attack only when a person is on their own or is in a defenseless position. Between ages 5 and 8 I had a school bully that used to target me, or rather her and her little minions did. At that time I switched schools, and had no problems with bullies ever again, but it did effect me because I found myself getting between other bullies and their prey and facing them down. Not sure how I managed to keep from getting beat to a pulp, but I was told once when I would defend someone and would be angry because it was always a gang of other girls attacking the one girl and according to this other girl, I was a scariest thing she had ever seen because I would literally dare one of the mean ones to try and pick on me instead, and they always backed down. I got lucky... lol but I also managed to help a few other girls that got into a position that I had once been in and could not see it happen to someone else.
Story 1: OP asumed that both he and his’ Bully had grown up, but only OP had grown up

I once saw comic that had two people chatting on a couch while some rugrats were running amok. One says to the other "We don't discipline them; we figure society will do that when they move out."
In story 2 OP was willing to nearly break his own nose in order to avoid an insurance scam.
That is hardcore as all heck!
Dashcams for everything! I've got a brand new motorbike here, not going to ride it until the new camera system gets installed. First time I ever got a dashcam I managed to record a police car crashing into a safety barrier, distracted driver trying to operate all his electronics and drive at the same time.
Yep!
GoPros have enough storage nowadays I can record for like 4 days before I have to delete it
That was pretty quick thinking of how to make do without one though. If I ever end up driving in the states I might have to get one though after seeing so many of theses sorts of stories on here.
@@benmac940 Honestly, insurance frauds are everywhere. Half of the ones I see online are in china and stuff so just get them no matter where you live or are.
@@devonbotney2762 hate to ruin your little know it all trip but I have never once heard of a case where they've involved another vehicle where I am. So I think I can safely say no it doesn't happen where I am yet.
Story 1: No matter what the rumors are that someone is trying to spread you need to squash them ASAP. Especially ones that involve sexual assault. Once they get planted they never go away and with social media now they will follow you for life.
Yeah atleast the employer took it seriously in the end. Had a similar incident afew years back and the employer did nothing. That is until after I went to the police instead of having lunch and they showed up before I even got back there demanding to talk to the guy regarding assault and wilful damage. At which point they fired both of us for fighting, so I then successfully did them for wrongful dismissal.
So true

I believe dashcams weren't exactly common back in the 90's, props to OP for the quick thinking
My dad had one because he drove a company car back in the 90’s and damn they were REALLY expensive and his was super bulky and ugly. Typical 90’s tech lol
They were very uncommon. The data storage tech wasn't advanced enough to keep much video, even at relatively low resolution. As @Alang says, the ones that did exist were super bulky and expensive
@@zigedelic3909 huh? Back then 6+h tapes were very common ...
The cameras were bulky, the storage containers were not (well, they were compared to a micro SD card, but compared to hard disks providing enough digital storage for even give minutes of uncompressed video data they were tiny)
The first Disney movie on DVD was Mary Poppins. That was in 1998. A lot of the technology things we're used to nowadays (smart phones, light-weight laptops, 1080p monitors, fitness watches, etc.) are things from the past fifteen years. Things we have nowadays were largely unfathomable to most people back then. All the technological advancements we've made in 20 years really add up, and it takes a significant perspective shift to grasp that fact. Hell, 360-degree cameras didn't make it to the general consumer market until just a few years ago! I remember when a group at PAX West held a panel on the *theoretical* proposition of tetherless VR; and now it exists! Technology has advanced so rapidly that it's hard to fathom.
@@brag0001 SD cards were only invented in the late 2000s. During the 90s, we are still using floppy disks and VHS tapes. And the floppy disks cannot even store videos.

Story 1. The sad thing about bullys is that his glory days were 20 years ago and he was trying to get that feeling of "success" again. This does not condone that type of behavior. I hope he lost his job, benefits, wife, kids, pets etc etc over this. What a small person. Props to OP for not decking the creep
There's a term for this. It's called "Peaked in High School"
The guy called the days spent in highschool bullying OP "the good ol' days" and threatened to make OP's wife leave him by spreading false rumors.
This man does not have a wife or kids, and if he does, I bet it wasn't because he genuinely found someone to love, he probably knocked up some chick he was fooling around with and had no choice but to marry her to take responsibility or else her parents would hunt him down and make him pay.
But let's be real here, he definitely doesn't have a wife because what self respecting woman would lower her standards enough to date this pathetic man-child?
Story 2: Stuff like that is why I _own_ a dashcam. Two, in fact. Recently upgraded to ones with backup cameras, and put the backups on the roof pillars on the front of the car, looking out to the side. So even if I get side-swiped, I'll have it on film. lol
As someone else already pointed out, it happened in the 1990s. There were no dashcam back then, at least not as common and cheap like we have today.
What surprises me is that these aren't standard options at this point. Even on low end model vehicles. Having watched a number of collision videos on TH-cam, the fast majority seem to be from Europe and Russia. Which is odd as you would expect more in the US because we have more vehicles on the roads. But when you see how badly people drive you begin to understand why they are so popular. I'll openly admit that I've considered getting them from my vehicles. It is only a matter of time before insurance companies offer rebates for dash cams in the vehicles.
@@superdave8248 Someone said in one of those video comments that Russians put dashcam on their cars because the level of frauds (such as in the story) that happen there is very high.
Story 1: As they say, "Old habits die hard", so you better ditch old *malicious* habits before they nuke you in the stomach 10+ years in the future.
Story 2: I will not condone fabricating circumstances of an incident, but in this case I suppose the end did justify the means. You did put a wannabe scam artist in her place and made sure that you did not pay for her criminal misdeeds.
Stories like this is why I am a big believer in traffic surveillance.
Fight fire with fire.
Yeah, better to fabricate circumstances than to get the full blame for an accident you didnt cause and have other things put on top of that too. And you're basically just outconning a con artist so there's that I guess
both can be useful.
I had hoped that in the first story OP was gonna say "and then I pressed stop recording" cause that would've been a fantastic turn that they were recording the whole thing. Always record when you think you're in danger.
Glad I'm not the only one who was hoping for that.

2: So nice that dashcams came to be. Evidence is king.

I'm impressed the OP in that last story came up with such a clever plan so quickly, because there's not a lot you could do otherwise, the evidence is pretty heavily against you in such a situation.
Story One: some people keep living in their school days because that's where they 'peaked' and it's all a loss of facade and power when it's time to live in the 'real world'! Bravo OP.
It reminds me of this line from the Paramore song "Ain't it Fun?": Don't go crying to your mama, cause you're all alone in the real world.
And that's how I think bullies like these end up self destructing. Back in their school days, they could pull this behavior with no fear because they'd just have mommy and daddy bail them out.
But now that they're adults, they don't seem to understand until it's too late that their actions have consequences.

A friend of mine told me a little story that might make you laugh. Turns out he was driving home one night ( around 10.30 PM (ish ) and he'd witnessed an 'accident'.( Similar story to OP in the last story )...except...that the car at the back was an UNMARKED POLICE CAR! The whole thing had been caught on camera. My friend said he burst into laughter seconds after the collision...when the officers in the rear car flicked their blue lights on and then climbed out of the car putting their uniform hats on as they did so !
He did stop and offer to give a statement ( which the cops took) but Oh Karma...I do love you so !
I love watching clips of that kind of thing happening lol. Wish everyone who tries this would get cursed to always end up targetting a police vehicle no matter how random they try to go..
Too bad karma only works half the time ay?
Story 1: two ways to deal with bullies who never grew up: 1- ignore the idiot, 2-go sociopath on them and destroy their lives.
Choice 2 always is the most satisfying.
The bullying story reminds me of how I visited the town where I was born and met my primary school bully again. She used to toss me into these garbage dumpsters behind the school and say things like "trash belongs in the trash" and "stay in the trash where you belong" stuff like that.
Surprisingly, she recognised me first and apologised about everything. Apparently her parents had divorced during that time and she had undiagnosed anger issues. I forgave her because she was so sincere with her apology and we are now still friends to this day
I remember a youtube video of dashcam footage, where a driver trying to run an Insurance fraud scam backed into a car and started yelling about police and how dare they drive right into their backend, that they would sue. Driver of the car that was hit pointed to his dashcam footage and the scammer stopped dead in his tracks and ran to his car to flee the scene. Some idiots. And I imagine if OP'd had a Dash Cam, then the girl in the red car would have been equally screwed and proven in the wrong. Why did she think the cops would cooperate with her scam with a sob story and screw someone else just because she gave them a hallmark movie script.
It happens.....the scammers count on people making snap judgments without knowing all the facts. And the fact that she claimed dude had a tire iron would have had the cops already against OP...... and you notice from the story the cop was.....the cop originally approached OP expecting OP to get up and do stuff even before he checked OP's eyelid and decided he was unconscious, and that was when the cop calmed down and started assessing the situation. The scammers count on that stuff. OP is lucky they got out of the car and heard her start to lie, because if he hadn't then he wouldn't have known to ditch the tire iron nor would he know to "play opposum" and then the cop wouldn't have believed that he was just standing there patiently waiting. So glad OP heard her
As someone else already pointed out, it happened in the 1990s. There were no dashcam back then, at least not as common and cheap like we have today.
If I ever meet someone from my high school who was a jerk and they try to do stuff to me, I'll just pretend like I don't know them. I think some of the best revenges are success, and making it seem as they were so insignificant in your life that you don't even remember their name

Story 2: Since the tires squealed as she pulled the scam, there would be skid marks on the pavement indicating her quick reversal that would also give her away...marks in front of the tires and none behind them which would happen if she stopped suddenly from going forward.
Thats assuming the cops did their job and checked them.
@@kristhebrownie they didn't really need to because after dealing with the guy, their first priority, and then seeing his truck was in reverse, there was enough evidence already.

That last story is... Cripes, what a monster. Great acting chops on OP
Story 2: That is why I have a dashcam, which also has a reverse camera... so if I am rear-ended again, I have video of it.
Just got done watching an old pro revenge. Thanks Fluff and Steveo.
Way too many crazies out there I've got a dash cam and another here at the house should the 1st fail. No way is anyone pulling a con on me. BTW, in the story here, the blond floored it in reverse, there was, according to OP a squeal of tires, that's going to leave a distinctive and oddly reverse shaped mark on the street.
With so many people having dash cams, and so many businesses having cameras, even intersections have traffic cameras, why are people still trying this crap?
Good for him though, the ability to think on your feet is an ability not that many people have.
This story happened in the 90s, that's why. But yes, people do still try this crap.
Yes; especially if the vehicle being backed into is an ambulance for a private service (it happens to my company several times a year).
@@dinascharnhorst6590 Just when I thought that people could not possibly be any more stupid, I'm proven wrong yet again.
I want to say surely they wouldn't do it to a police car, but I'm not sure anymore.
I've been watching a lot of YT dash cam videos lately. Stupidity is so common! I have a dash cam in my van, just in case.
Even worse: Trying it with a vehicle that *will* kill you.
Someone slammed the brakes in their little hatchback on a highway onramp, in front of my half-ton truck. If I hit at anywhere near the ~60mph that we were going at, my *engine* would be occupying his *driver seat.* Trucks tend to go up and over in a crash, even when slightly lowered.
However... My truck has the towing package. Including oversized, beefed up disc brakes on all 4 wheels. They're meant to stop >16000 lbs without undue trouble, so my 7000 lb empty truck stopped almost as fast as the hatchback did. He seemed to be waiting for impact, and didn't seem to register what was happening until I squeezed past and pegged the throttle. I saw some rude gestures, and then he was gone, left in the dust.
I didn't have a phone with me, and had no way to report the dude. He had one of those super-tinted license plate covers, so I didn't even have a plate number to send in. Honestly, in hindsight, that vehicle looked like it was purposely set up for fraud. There were basically no identifying features left on that car; even the paint looked generic, that dust-covered red that only hatchbacks regularly have.
The last story reminds me of a short story called "The Unicorn in the Garden" by humorist James Thurber. In the story, a couple is in an unhappy marriage. The husband tells his wife that there is a unicorn in the garden, so she calls a mental hospital to come and get him. When the nice young men arrive in their clean white coats, the husband simply denies saying there was a unicorn in the garden, and the wife ends up being taken away to the mental hospital...
When I was 20 I went back to the town I was picked on. Had the luck of seeing one of my high school bullies. I tried to let sleeping dogs lie, but he decided to pull a stunt. I don't think he'll be having kids because I kicked them in his throat. Left him laying on the ground at the local pizza hut. Got on my bike and left. I was grinning all the way back to my house.
I have heard the last story at least 5 times before, on other channels, and it never gets old!

11:40 That's the exact reason I have a dashcam and have had one for years... Driving CMV's for years has taught me people will do stupid things and then blame it on the 40 ton truck that can't stop on a dime... The dashcam has saved my bacon multiple times over the years...
Point about dash cams. If you are prone to making mistakes you might not want to get one. Also never delete anything from the dashcam. If you are found to have one and delete anything from it the judge can either assume it proved you guilty or instruct a jury to assume it proved you guilty.
😲 So, don't delete any driving time video ever? Even if nothing happened? Like a uneventful trip to the grocery store.
@@kitarrah1422 correct. Keep it just in case months later someone claims that you hit them during that trip to the grocery store....you need proof it was uneventful
@@SoManyRandomRamblings wow! Thanks for the tip!
@@kitarrah1422 my sisters coworker got accused for rear ending someone in the supermarket car park. He had been working for 6 hours already, the lady had tried to pull a scam and smashed into him but the cameras show that he hadn’t moved all day.
You can fight the "assume it proved you guilty" order if you've got a pattern of deleting *everything* that's, for example, over a week old (and doesn't show an accident/near accident, obviously). A valid habitual practice to have, especially if your camera can only store so much recorded footage before it overwrites the oldest stuff (so you don't even need to actively delete anything, it does it for you), or worse, just stops recording (my friend got dicked over by his dashcam hitting the 72-hours-of-footage limit and just shutting off a day or so before he got into a major wreck, and it shut off without any indication that it wasn't recording besides a single, very quiet, beep that he only knows about now that he's read the instruction manual's fine print).
And this is assuming your case is "this whole series of events never happened, I don't know who this person is, I didn't get into any accidents or near-accidents that day". If it's "she reversed into me at a stoplight" then yeah, that's more of an issue. You'd be expected to have downloaded, saved, and saved backups of that footage ASAP.
Well, he did say OP would love to get some revenge, didn't he? It seems he wanted OP to try and get revenge, and in the end, he got exactly what he wanted.

@@SonsOfLorgar He got what he wished for but he didn't like it. He ended up losing his job.
Oh goodness, story 2's OP is a true boss.
Situational awareness is key, no matter when, what, or where.
That is really why I bought a dashcam. One time I was sitting in a streetside parking lot and a guy in a lifted F-350 backet straight over my hood. It was very difficult to get insurance to pay for that.
Honestly, the last schoolyard bully I had turned around and left without a word. I answered the front door with a shotgun in my hand.
Some backstory: The church they went to had gotten a new preacher (not sure the denomination) who went on at length that non-religious people are an existential threat to the world. How anyone that isn't religious isn't human, so killing (us) is no different than destroying rabid animals. And so on. The congregation had him removed within a month (possibly with force, didn't ask for or get any details there), but his words stuck with a few of my classmates.
As such, they hated my existence for not being religious. As well as looking down on my religious friends as 'tainted' for associating with an 'animal'. Years after graduation, when one of them showed up at my doorstep, my immediate suspicion was that they wanted to make good on their threats. As police response times are awful in the countryside, I knew that I was on my own here, and I reacted accordingly.
I still don't know if he was there to cause trouble or to make amends. I really don't care, neither one is particularly welcome here. The closest he can come to making amends is to no longer exist in my life. And starting trouble is... *Ill-advised.*
I've been an insurance adjuster and I tell every single person I know to get dash cams for both the front and back. it's not just for things like this--accidents in which one person merges into another person's lane are often he said/she said and nobody gets paid or gets their damages taken care of except through their own company. Always always always have a dash cam.
Story 2: That lady seemed very desperate to try and pull a stunt like that, but props to OP for his performance as an unconscious guy.
As a former insurance agent I always recommend dash cams, I've bought everyone in my family one for that reason. I've also had it save me. I was at a red light when I was rear ended. You can actually see in the video that she was not looking at the road, she was looking at her passenger. When the police arrived she claimed she didn't really hit me and that I was exaggerating. I waited for her to finish then I pointed out the dash cam to the cop and showed him the video. the video clearly showed that I had been stopped for roughly 2 minutes at the light and that she wasn't looking and rear ended me hard. He took the video back, showed her, and asked if she wanted to change her statement. She glared at me big time but backed down. thankfully I wasn't badly injured but I was glad to have proof of what happened!!
Story 1 op is the real man in this situation, I could only hope that I could keep as calm as he did. A real man.
I live in a small town in Ontario. This backing into people doesn't happen here! Mainly because there is a really good certainty the guy you are trying to scam will get out of his car, and beat the crap out of you first, before the police are even called.
Story 2: brilliant acting! 🏆👏 There are well-known Hollywood actors who might not have been able to pull that off convincingly, and OP managed to convince both the police officer and the paramedic! 👍
That was a great on the spot improv by story 2 op, which is to say the least, most believable. Props to the guy for quick thinking.
First story ending: "The county charged him" This means it came from the Sheriffs office. That can land the guy in county jail, under supervision of the deputies. For a felony like that he can easely get 60 days of community work, under supervision by deputies. Depending on the State that he did this. In Arizona he will be picking up trash next to a highway, supervised by armed deputies.
The bully of the first story opened a gigantic can of worms. It's called slander. All OP has to do is get solid proof the guy is telling those 'fairy' tales.
Easier said than done, especially after 20 years. There's also a thing called the statute of limitations.
He would have to prove damages though for it
@@merlinathrawes746 Statute of limitations on slander is far, far longer than a couple of months (OP stated that this happened a couple of months ago at 0:36) and it being 20 years ago doesn't matter when one of the slanderous things is him getting expelled for sexual assault - that'd be a mark on his permanent record, and would probably also have resulted in a police report, so if neither exists, it's pretty easy to prove that that assault and subsequent expulsion didn't happen, ergo, slander.
@@merlinathrawes746 Okay, apparently you can't differentiate between the things lied about and the lies spread.
It doesn't matter that the bully spread lies about things that supposedly happened 20 years ago. What matters is, that he slanders _now_ !
Bully story: Even though outside of the security video there was very little IT the bully learned a hard lesson: Don't mess with the IT guy!
He is a rock star!! Excellent move to think of all that in just a moment.
That insurance scam story: I’m so impressed with OPs quick thinking! That was amazing! Great story
I would have definitely gotten SB down for slander/defamation of character. I had an old coworker who tried to pull that stunt. But I am a firm believer that those who try to harm me shall receive karma. She fell down the stairs the day after. She was 60+. I was 28. Funny thing is she told customers that I was a drunk junkie who rather get wasted than take care of my own child. All false. But I did learn that the old man who would hang around my job during her shifts was actually one of her johns. This lady was a senior citizen escort. Bruh.
Story 2: OP outsmarted that scammer real good with that quick thinking of his and I do believe that this happened in the 90's so dash cams were probably expensive back then. Keep up the good work DarkFluff
I was also bullied at school, it is hard. I remember my grade 10 leaves picnic. And one of most bullies said she was going punch me in the face. And I said go ahead and stood my ground, she backed off.
Love the OP blond car story. His quick thinking saved him😅😂

This is exactly why I have a dash cam. I have had way to many close calls because of idiot drivers.
Bro. Military man went Xgames mode and did all that shit to himself after he realized what was going on. Fucking OG
The accident story is absolutely brilliant 👏👏🤣🤣🤣
The first story reminds me of the scene in “Grosse Pointe Blank” where Cusack’s character lays it out for the school bully from HS (not that this is the same dynamic, just made me laugh) that it’s not HS anymore and “there IS no ‘US’” and dude needs to get a life because despite Mr. High School Bully Narcissist thinking his former enemies/victims still think about/fear him and his ignoble BS from 20 years ago, the truth follows a different path.
I do contractor work so from time to time I run into people I knew in high school. In one such occurance an old bully thought he could get me fired and sent to jail by spreading rumor and lies like he did in high school. Let us just say he lost his job, 401k, pention, union card, he lost everything and was stranded in france. ; All cars should have a dash and rear camera installed because those have save my family, me, and friends from being scammed and/or falsely accused of accidents.
Dashcam 100%! Best money I've ever spent, saved me $2k in car repairs when some university students rammed my car and tried to blame me.
I have heard the last story before, But I love hearing it every time, Pretty sure OP mentioned it happened in the 90s, not sure dash cams were a thing then
Also you also know it had to happen back in the day because he didn't talk about the airbag hitting him in the face. So you are correct that a dash cam was probably not an option for this situation
Hearts from DarkFluff are worth more than reddit karma. 🥰 correction, more than reddit awards.
The fact that that guy was even able to smash his own face into the steering wheel is impressive. I don't think I would actually be physically capable of doing something to intentionally harm myself like that. I'm naturally pain avoidant.
So basically, the best way to be featured at the start of an episode is to mention Stevo ?
I guess so.
So now I know how to ever have my anti-social ass mentioned!
The insurance scam sounds like the ‘80s or ‘90s type of situation. There were no air bags going off, which might have explained a bloody nose after airbags were a thing.
Good noticing that cuz that kind of impact would have most definitely activated an airbag.

Yep. It's stories of car accidents that make me really want a dash cam. I'm looking into them now cause the video can't lie. LoL.
Enjoy paying for bail and a lawyer to fight felony fraud charges.
OP did that in an absolutely PERFECT way in the last story!
Heard a story how a woman was waiting at a turn lane for a sucker to come up. Another care was sitting in a parking lot or something and was trying out their new phone. They were recording when the woman put her car in reverse and floored it into a car that had pulled in behind her. Three men jumped out of her car and went over to a sidewalk. The cops were called and the woman said he backed into her and her three friends lied and said, we were walking down the road and saw the whole ordeal officer. The man with the new phone walked over and told the cops that these four were lying through their teeth and he had recorded the whole accident on his cellphone. The look of horror on the four faces made the cop jump at the chance to see the evidence. He called for backup to come and help arrest four suspects in a insurance scam, making a false report to police, false reporting and reckless driving. It was insane and that guy with the video evidence said that poor guy from a insurance scam. During the trial it also came out that this woman had numerous rear end collisions with multiple cars and trucks and she had to admit it was all an insurance scam. Glad she is off the streets.
See, that last story is exactly why I DO have dashcams. On the front and rear of my car. Good luck pulling anything on me when I got it all on camera
Story 2 is exactly why I already have a dashcam! I'm not gonna be a fraud victim!
I used to work for car insurance and fraudulent claims is one of those things that make it harder for someone to get insured and that company should have cancelled her policy and made her pay for the damage to both cars and for the ambulance call out (if it's in a country where you pay for your own medical bills). Making fraudulent claims on an insurance policy is a crime and you could go to prison for it, and if not you will get a fine and have to tell all of your future insurance companies why you have had that policy cancelled and they can refuse to insure you on that basis.
The second story is like an advertisement for dashcams
Stevo... if you can hear me and you're in danger... blink twice 👀
Ah Darkfluff. The only person who says they love me
I love you 💕 have a wonderful, beautiful day
@@arrowacethealien1935 Thank you
A lot of youtubers say it lol least the ones i watch
Story 1: It’s as if the bully only watched the first half of Back to the Future and thought “man, Biff Tannen is so amazing and I’m gonna be just like him”, and doesn’t bother watching til the end when things don’t go his way.
He probably thought a time machine was the only way stop a bully from being successful, cuz before the time machine biff was doing better than Marty's dad.
Tbf that movie would be too complicated for the bully, he might not struggle with peppy pig, then again the plot might also be too complex for him
I love to listen to Fluff and his /r stories while I get ready for my day.
Feed poor Steveo! He’s a growing lad!
Funny thing about most bullies is they travel in a pack, and they attack only when a person is on their own or is in a defenseless position. Between ages 5 and 8 I had a school bully that used to target me, or rather her and her little minions did. At that time I switched schools, and had no problems with bullies ever again, but it did effect me because I found myself getting between other bullies and their prey and facing them down. Not sure how I managed to keep from getting beat to a pulp, but I was told once when I would defend someone and would be angry because it was always a gang of other girls attacking the one girl and according to this other girl, I was a scariest thing she had ever seen because I would literally dare one of the mean ones to try and pick on me instead, and they always backed down. I got lucky... lol but I also managed to help a few other girls that got into a position that I had once been in and could not see it happen to someone else.
Pro revenge is the best.
