Child finally snaps after being bullied (Video)

The kid probably went home and told his parents about his ankle. Who probably told the school. Which got the kid suspended.
 
All of this is bad. The bullying is bad, the response is bad. I feel bad for the big kid who probably just didn't know what to do, but that response is unacceptable. I'm not about to glorify this type of response. Self defense is one thing, but walking away absolutely needs to be the first option. I don't want this kid to go through life thinking this is the way he can solve his problems.

Haven't been to school for a while I see, haven't you?

Walking away will only make him do it again and again, and will prolly get his fanboys doing it again and again as well. The only way you're gonna get people off you is to be aggressive.

Unless you want to wait around a couple of years until they grow up and stop harrassing you. They seemed around what, 11-12 in there? Yeah, people usually grow out of this **** at around 15 - 16. That's a lot of hits to take by just walking away.

On the news tonight there was an interview with his mum. If I recall correctly she said her son "got what he deserved." And she wants him to apologize.

Good to see a parent that doesn't believe their child is a pure little angel who would never do anything wrong.
 
I think it's obvious that the walking away option was tried well enough. The larger guy stood there and the small guy hit him. He didn't fight back until the smaller guy had thrown multiple punches. As it was to start off with, the larger guy was backed up against a wall.

Personally, getting your parents, teachers, police,etc. involved will only make matters worse for you (especially in the short run). When any of those parties get involved, you end up being marked as a snitch, wimp, and get picked on more. Usually with teachers' involvement, much doesn't happen (at first, if ever at all). Usually when parents get involved, nothing happens at all (because they can't stop this from happening at school, and chances are the bully is just as defiant to his parents). When the police get involved, they don't do anything until there is some sort of visible damage, and (at least around here) they just talk to the parents first. So throughout this whole process, the kid gets picked on a lot more than if he just ignored it the whole time. In my opinion, none of those are good options.

In my opinion, the only way this could have been handled better was picking this kid up after the first hit, not waiting until 4 or 5 have been thrown.
 
Where do 12 year olds and 16 year olds NOT attent the same school? o.O

We have 1st grade all the way to 12th grade in the same school here in Estonia.
 
I've watched this video more times than I can count now and shown it to a ton of people at school and swim practice. You can always tell what part of the video they're at based purely on reaction.

*first punch* omg
*little kid dances around* lol
*big kid goes to grab him* atta boy! (one girl even said "yay fatty wins")
*epic throw* LMAO or OMG!!

I've laughed every time I've seen it.
 
There's facebook fanpage with 80k fans in honor of Casey Heynes. Seems like he really inspired lots of people. Too bad youtube keep removing the videos for "violence and repulsive content".
