Top 10 Videos of Politicians Fighting By Ian Tindell [18 more lists]

Ever wanted to slap a politician? Get in line - you have to wait for the world's politicians to finish slapping - and frankly beating the living c**p out of - each other first.

I present to you the best examples of actual physical assaults between politicians from all around the world. Even a wish from a Miss America contestant wouldn't bring these people together (though a measely $10K from a lobbyist probably would).

The Taiwan Tussle

This politician studied the ancient art of "being prepared" - check the seemingly effortless UFC-level judo toss.

+17 Skill for this pol. No matter what they're arguing about, I know who I'm for.

The Korean Kick Down

A pound for pound champion fight video here - starting about :30 it gets pretty amusing as the rumble begins -

the more savvy pols quickly take off their ties, they've obviously been here before - wait for it . . .

and now we see why - NECKTIE STRANGULATION ACTION . . .

then more Asian-government moshpit + pull and scream fighting + useless bystanders smiling nervously or trying to leave... (the hand drawn cartoon sound bubbles with Korean characters are a nice touch during a *slight* lull)

and now... (2:00 mark)

a hard double ear-punch

another dude LAUNCHES himself off of a podium to get to the people in the higher seats who think they're safe

another who does a stage dive into the violence kicking and swinging pell mell.

a full on STOMPIN'

a PHONE-HANDSET BEATDOWN

and finally - TEAR GAS and riot police.

This one has it all. Suits Gone Wild.

The All Out Indian War

Assemblymen in India get up in arms over a civil rights issue. What results is an all out war on the political floor that actually turned dangerous, drew blood, and sent people to the hospital. When most politicians feel like they really need to fight an issue, they declare that they will "go to war" until the issue is resolved. These politicians in India actually meant it.

The Korean Cat Fight

Another gem from Korea. Members of the South Korean parliament engage in a brutal showdown that includes a cat fight for the ages. This video came close to being the most heated Team Edward vs. Team Jacob fight we have ever seen.

5

The Bolivian Brawl

Members of the Bolivian government engage in a heated exchange which ends in what is essentially an old school showdown between two of them.

At about 23 seconds into this video, you see probably the most bad ass politician on this list. He brings it like Captain Kirk: all cocky with minimal effort. From the looks of it, he ended up on top, thus violating the red-shirt rule we have all come to know and love.

The Pakinstani 70s-style Karate Chop

These two Pakistani pundits start really swelling up and talking over each other at just about 1:10 and then at about 1:15, the one on the right has had it. Someone makes a high pitched sound and then the one on the right goes bitch-slap SHAFT all over the guy next to him, then exits. Cue the commercials!

The Pakistani Punch

More Pakistani action you ask? Here you go.

The thing that really makes this video great is that, despite the fact that two politicians begin to exchange arguably the most well-delivered blows on this list in the background, the course of the interview is hardly phased. They continue their interview even though EVERY OTHER NEWS OUTLET focuses on where the true story is.

That Camera Man + That Reporter = JOURNALISM FAIL

The Fat Man Chair Throw

One political pundit resorts to name calling when he declares his opponent is fat. The fat man's counter argument was to throw a chair. Who says political debate is dead? Fast forward 45secs in or so to get right to the action.

The Ukraine Toss Around

The Parliament speaker in Ukraine, a close ally to the Ukrainian President, was being forced to resign and members of the assembly were asked to put the resignation to a vote. After the vote was passed, a few dissenters decided their voice should continue to be heard by throwing their peers into headlocks.

I like the guy who looks like he stabs the first guy then just walks through like he owns the place, looking for more. What's Ukranian for "who wants some?"

The Alabama Suckerpunch

Let's finish out this list American, just to be fair.

The best part about this sucker punch is the aggressor's reasoning behind it in the interview that follows the punch.

Despite his being part of the Republican minority in a primarily Democratic house of government on the last day of the session for the year, what really made him go ghetto on his political opponent was when he dissed his momma.

Honorable Mention

Rath vs. Macek over the issue of God knows what. All that's known is that for a guy named "Rath", he didn't really bring it.
