Lad knocked out by mate’s flying chair in wild brawl outstide strip membership

Shocking CCTV and street footage has captured the moment a wild brawl erupted outside a Melbourne strip club, ending with a man being knocked out cold by a flying chair

A wild brawl erupted outside a strip club when a man was knocked out cold by his own mate. Shocking CCTV and street footage showed the mad scene unfolding.

Footage has surfaced capturing the chaotic moment a man was walloped by a flying chair hurled by a possible ex-mate outside a Melbourne, Australia, strip club on Friday night (January 30). The dramatic scenes, first aired by Australian news outlet 7News Melbourne on Saturday (January 31), were caught on CCTV outside Bar 20 on King Street in the heart of the city.

Additional video, filmed from across the road and shared on X (formerly known as Twitter), offers a wider view of the mayhem.

The two men had reportedly been inside the club just before 9am before being booted out by bouncers.

Outside, scuffles erupted, with security seen shoving one of the men to the pavement.

The violence quickly spilled onto King Street, as one of the ejected men grabbed a chair and lobbed it, seemingly at security, but ended up smacking his own friend instead, News.com.au reported.

In separate footage, another man is spotted nipping next door to a restaurant, where he tries to nab a wooden chair as a staff member desperately intervenes.

A staffer told 7News: “He just suddenly asked, can I borrow a chair? I tried to stop him, saying it’s our best chair, you can’t take it.”

Footage further shows the man launching the chair towards the club’s entrance, where his pal is still embroiled with security.

The chair, apparently not meant for security, smacks straight into the back of his unsuspecting mate’s head.

As the victim crumples to the ground, a security guard is seen laughing and pointing, while the chair-thrower clutches his head in shock.

It remains unclear what injuries, if any, were sustained, according to News.com.au.
