New Year's Eve from a bouncer's perspective

A bouncer in Ontario dons a GoPro camera to document new year's eve from his perspective.
Shepppardsays...

Filmed in London, Ontario. Home to some of the worst people you'll meet to begin with. The town is basically divided by a single street, Adelade. Can't remember which is the worse of the two, but I'm pretty sure there's songs written about "east of Adelade", so that'd be my guess.

hmmm..i don't know.
this seems awfully tame.
where is the guy getting in the bouncers face chest thumping and questioning his sexual orientation?
or pleading his case after you caught him throwing up over the railing onto a toyota celica?
or being busted for passing out on the concrete,curled up into a cute little ball and begging "i just need a few minutes".
or the guy that loses his shit for being asked to leave,runs out into the middle of the parking lot,tears off his shirt and declares "i am from new york you fuck,i will bench you!"

for new years eve this is pretty damn tame.
where is the river of vomit?
the never ending male posturing and attempted fights with alcohol levels that would drop a horse?
where are the threats?
name calling?
constant bargaining?
tears?
and where the hell is the paddywagon parked just to the side for easy transportation to the drunk tank?

i think they edited the real juicy stuff out of this video.i feel cheated!

London, Ontario residents are great for the most part. What your seeing is Western University students, as usual, tanked out of their skulls on their best drunken behaviour. Mostly douchebags from Toronto with a Frat complex.

Funny enough, I remember this place (The Gatsby) as a ripper joint when I lived there 25 years ago.

Yeah, I'm trying to tote this with my memories of working as a bouncer and honestly, if this is the worst I had to deal with all night, I'd be pretty happy (particularly on the biggest night of the year).

Insistent drunks that won't leave >>>> people leaving and coming back with tire irons...

I'd like to enter this video into evidence to support my extreme introvert lifestyle. Frequently, people in the meaty center or extreme extrovert side of the bell curve question how I can possibly be happy and fulfilled staying home all the time.

Why don't I get out more? THIS is why.

Because you don't like the cold?!?

As a fellow introvert, I took a job as a bouncer when I was in college specifically because it's exactly the opposite of the kind of person I am. It was worth it.
I was in a major urban center though, so most slow nights were about like this in the video. The only really big difference being the density of people (and thus, about 100x more exchanges with drunk idiots like those shown above).
Very interesting experience.

I worked as a bouncer for a Medicinal Marijuana club for a few years. I never had to touch anyone, and only had to ask about 10 people to leave the entire time. Now I see how lucky I am, due at least in part to the fact that we didn't have drunks to deal with.
