Caught on Tape Madness

I just took a quick look on youtube to see if anyone had uploaded any interesting videos related to our favourite transit system, and lo and behold! I haven't checked in a while, so it was quite surprising to find these. Here are 3 WTF Winnipeg Transit moments, caught on tape.

Here is some guy getting randomly beat up by a guy who looks like he just wandered out of a cave:


Not sure what the story is here, but here's a video of a guy getting arrested on the bus:


And finally, here's some awkward video of a girl serenading the 11 Portage passengers in song:

AC/DC idiots singing on the bus

At first I was thinking, "god, what jerks!", that old guy looks really annoyed. But it's a chartered bus! I guess the old guy was an AC/DC fan after all.

Transit Shenanigans caught on tape

Here is a video someone shot of a fight erupting on the 43 bus a few weeks ago. It's hard to tell exactly what's going on, but from the comments in the video (I don't suggest you read them unless you need a reminder how awfully racist youtube members are), it sounds like a couple of G's picked a fight with a woman and her kids. The G's were playing loud music, she asked them to turn it down and they refused, so she threw SPAGHETTI at them and they started swearing and hitting eachother. After she tried to get off the bus, they followed.

Very classy fellas...

On a lighter note, here is someone's cute attempt at making a viral video for their local business, set on the Winnipeg Transit.

I think what gives it away as being fake are the two goths that get on and don't sit together. Come on people, we all know that Goths stick together!

The Pedo-stalker Confrontation

Last week, on the 11 Portage, this gansta-ish couple got on and sat behind me and started loudly arguing about lighters. Apparently the guy's lighter was out of fluid and he didn't know how he was going to light his cigarettes. She told him to go to a corner store and they would refill it for him, to which he replied "Went to store, no find." She said, "Well you gotta ask them fuck, it's explosive! Kids can steal that shit!"

Then, just as I was enjoying this verbal exchange - at the back of the bus some hippie-looking chick starting SCREAMING at this older balding asian dude about following her around and being a child molester. Just random stuff like how she got her period when she was 13, how him and all the cops that are following her are pedophiles - he just kept repeating over and over that she needed a mental assessment. I turned around and saw she was also videotaping the guy as she accused him of being a stalker child molester.

I managed to get an audio recording of the ending of the conversation when he "admits" to whatever wackness she's going on about, just as he gets off the bus:



After he got off, the girl behind me said "Man, that chick is fucking crazy!" and the guy replied, "Yeah but he did look like a pedo". Then the hippie-girl went and apologized to the bus driver for the screaming, but assured him that it was all worth it because she got his confession.

What I would give to see this video. Please anonymous crazy woman, post this on Youtube!
