Caught on Tape: The 5 Greatest Gamer Freakouts
Video games and temper tantrums have been linked ever since the days of Blinky, Pinky, Inky and Clyde boxing Pac-Man into a corner. Who among us hasn't kicked an arcade machine, or thrown a controller out of frustration? That's somewhat normal. What isn't normal is what you'll find below and on the following pages: So much screaming, yelling, swearing and violent physical flailing, you'd swear you were witnessing a game-induced seizure. Prepare to bust a gut as you sit back and watch video-game-playing kids flip out at their parents or others around them -- all caught on tape and uploaded to the old Interweb, of course. Here's our roundup of the top five gaming freakouts.
(WARNING: Some of these videos contain graphic language.)
#1 -- The German
Like some modern day version of Augustus Gloop all wound up on crank, this German youngster unleashes a campaign of shock and awe directed at his computer and desk as he waits, rather impatiently, for his 'Unreal Tournament' game to load. You'll find, to your delight, that he does all of this in his native tongue. And check out the smackdown he throws on his keyboard. One minute and 44 seconds in, half of its keys have popped out.

Neville Chamberlain obviously didn't have a chance. OK! OK! Take Austria! The Sudetenland! Czechoslovakia! The Jews! Here, I'll give you OUR Jews!

Fake or not, that kid has that "young Hitler/Satan" thing down a little too good. Get him some help now or get ready for serious problems...and more crazy youtube videos!

It was funny at first, then it just got sad.

It was a fake video that kid was an actor doing a comedy sketch about kids and video games leading to violence... if the writer payed even the slightest bit of attention and got the original video he/she'd know that.

This child is a psychopath in the making. I've never seen anything so disturbing related to video games in my life. He needs psychological help!! Immediately!!!!

This is supposed to be the master race??? This kid should be put in a strait jacket and lost in a mental institution. Where are the parents?
ClayAug 20th 2008 2:40PM
If this isn't a fake, then this kid either needs the living crap beat out of him for acting like a total freak, or he needs some serious heavy medication. However, if this is real, it is NOT his fault, but the fault of his parents for letting him get to this point. Sick or not, there reaches a point where bad behaviour is just not tolerated. Now, you really want to feel sick? Kids like this will run the world some day . . . looking at this there really is NO hope for the human race.

Are you sure he is not American. He seems like a sorry American to me.
lone moonAug 25th 2008 12:54PM

yeah, i remember back when i got my first NES, it was the late 80's, i was 9 yrs old , man i would get so mad , throw controllers, beat the system around a bit, scream, and cuss. now that i am almost thirty and pay my own way. i have respect for my belongings. now i just say "this game is pissin me off" calmly walk over to my 360 and turn off the power to watch some t.v. or just find something else to do. like wash dishes that my 22 yr old wife does not like to do. but she is hot and likes to play video games too, so i forgive her. but if i ever catch her beating down my system or throwing a controller, she will get a lesson in age discrimination.

this kid is CRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!! he needs anger management or something!! DANG!!!

"I am not sick or mad, I only have a sense of humor not everyone immediately understands. In addition, I have acting talent. I can do something so real that many think it is real. For this reason I will be insulted by many and hated. The aim of my videos or movies is to entertain people, not provoke. Nobody should take my short videos on the Internet seriously - they are merely for entertainment. No matter what people think or say, I am a very normal boy with acting talent."

Last month my boyfriends nephews got into a fist fight over that damn America's Army game. Something about a link, a clan and a noob(?). And if someone is getting their ass kicked, it's because their computer is lagging, or the other team is cheating,ghosting, or camping.
Anja LanierAug 24th 2008 6:13PM
this video is fake!!!!! i am german and he is totally faking it!!!!!!!!!!!!
lone moonAug 25th 2008 12:48PM
it might be planned though but it is quite funny. to bad this kid is probrbibly normal. honistly you all seem to have an idea that this kid have awtisum. i think that he is normal. maybe if the clip is real he might but just if he is yelling at his computer doesn't meen he has problems. that is way over rated. JUST BECAUSE HE IS DIFFERNT DOSENT MEEN HE HAS PROBLEMS! TOO MANY PEOPLE THINK THAT IF YOUR OVER RADGED YOU HAVE PROBLEMS. EVERYONE YELLS AT THERE COMP SOMETIMES. dont be so quick to aussum that everyone who radges has problems.
