Fan Rushes Maynard from Tool

[Maddux99]

He did it by pretending to hug him first.

[coffeefundmusic]

im impressed maynard can sing and beat the crap out of some one at the same time

[willthrill94]

This is the best flippin singer for any band that is and will ever be

[aft3rburn2]

sweet jiu jitsu, hip toss into taking his back, putting in hooks and setting up a rear naked choke! then singing! maynard is the man, id love to roll with him

[984slipknot]

best thing ever

[APPLEAPPS1]

Brutal

[Blazenround]

this was amazing, really liked that the lyric, choke down style just as he did that to the fan.

[N1k1mon]

it was all in good fun, those moves are submission moves, not to inflict damage, they're PERFECT for a situation like this.

And 6) It made a great show, Maynard pulled those moves off and subdued a possible psycho all the while keeping his poise and never missed a beat, we all know Axl would have socked the guy, bitched about it and ended the show. Respect Maynard!

[N1k1mon]

@Lexipooper

Then you're the worst bouncer alive. Anybody with half a brain looks at this and sees several things going on. 1) you never know why the fuck somebody has rushed on stage, you can't assume everyone there is a fan, and even if you did, 2) people do crazy shit 3) and cab be on multiple drugs as well as drunk 4) since security didn't show up Maynard took care of shit in a way that wasn't violent (punching the guy in the face) and 5)

[MrSn00zeButton]

it looked like maynard was gonna sing with him but then he flips him

[srryforowningu]

the dude was probly like sweet i'm bein chocked by maynard dudddddddddddddddddddddddddddd­ddddddeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee i wonder if this'll b on youtube that'd b so awesome man

[yyyuuuguppy]

dude. thats the worst comment ive ever seen. Maynard FUCKING rules. Tool is amazing. you are the lowest form of life on this planet. you piece of shit why dont you just go and kill yourself.

[jsn81281]

haha. maynard ftw.

[fumunshu]

The sick thing is he just tried to lay there and not get off the whole time. What a weirdo.

[Newman12341]

he tried to hug maynard

[sonic540]

Gay

[nimnash]

do you think he was lip synching

[GuruNuke]

no way - you can listen for a moment

[alischubb]

It is an honor to get your ass kicked by Tool.

[vampiregazer]

holy jesus fuck that was cool- go maynard!!! muhahahhaa... what did the fan do afterwards?!?

[enewyn]

I'd let Maynard tackle me.

[bobtjustice]

Rear naked choke=owned!!! ahh haha go maynard!

[Aversion0]

hahaha rear naked choke

[forsaken20071]

that dude got fucked up

[miranybeetle]

this cracks me up so hard. i love it. he keeps singing. how awesome.

[zoiuh]

LOLOL!

so funny!

[jechtlag]

if maynard grabbed me like that while singing pushit, I'd be wet!

[silent2143]

damn manyard owns

[EmperorErnest]

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu actually :)

[superfrodies]

can't wait to see them at bonnaroo

[fucker7876]

that would hav been awsm he actually got that close to maynard lol

[020338]

That's funny. That fan totally didn't expect that!!

[vremetal]

Ahh... that was a total display of love. Any true fan would be thrilled to receieve a rear naked choke from Maynard! Most likely better than security grabbing him anyway.

[RazorbackDevil]

HAHAA hes still singing. the fan loves it. and he pats his back! HAHA

[Zildjian232]

i would give so much money, just have maynard sing right into my ear like that. that guy is damn lucky

[TasteofMyScythe666]

hahah he hiptosses him and gets him in a headlock and the fan is like FUCK YEA!

[SirRobbie888]

What a TOOL - no threat at all, hes just a poser

[slaytanik666]

what a fucking bastard for doing that to a fan. bands aren't shit without the fans. tool blow anyway.

[killbilly1992]

fuck you, their music takes more skill to play than you can imagine

[masterpiraka]

Tool blow, I terzan...

It's not the fact that it's a fan, It's the fact that it's a drunk person.(fan or not, those things suck)

[POandD]

you're a jackass, he got drunk, he got up on stage, it's their territory.

[guitarhero73]

That was lame

[funkychewbacca]

At 1:53 it looks like Maynard kicks the dude in the crotch, not hard, but that still would hurt.

[Scarface066]

I heard he's a purple belt in Brazilian

Jiu-Jitsu. I'm only an orange belt in Kung-Fu lol. I bet if we spar he'd pwn me >:P

[sketchball999]

I like how he didn't even miss a beat with his singing. HAW!

[kaorunin]

He didin't pose a threat, but he could have had bad intentions eather way, it doesn't matter. The security is there to prevent this kind of shit from happening. He got what he deserved, and honestly, I think that was the time of his life.

[lexipooper]

I was a bouncer at those shows for years. Maynard should get sued! The kid didn't pose a threat. He was a fan. That's what you do to your fan's. That's not cool . That's f*D up. Kid runs up to see his idol and shake his hand and gets choked out. Maynard is a moron!

[machineinfection]

Could have been all in fun on maynard part, im not really a tool fan or anything...alot of the bands i have seen will actually jam along with the fans at shows ive been too (if the fan gets on stage) But at the same time there are crazy ones out there...the morons who ruin it for us. Like with john lennon and dimebag. Both shot by fucked up obsessed peices of shit.

[jackbauerpowerhour]

lol holy shit thats awesome

[ElliotSmith84]

you are awesome.

[DoubtShadows]

Thanks!

[Zigvicious]

and where was the security guys when needed?

[christopherwoods]

Found this via Yahoo Video featured vids (it's just one click from the Flock browser home page, and I thought I'd go exploring)... Good vid.

[knobbyz]

This was at the Astoria in London, Aenima tour. Not planned.

When it was dark Maynard was tying him up with the microphone wire.

Lesson learned!

[AOCRkid]

ufc-styleey!!!

[activehead]

i think he got that skills from the days in the army

[Kube1]

F***ing awesome!

[GoldenRatio]

Ha, that was pretty cool.

[z0rmulaut]

serves that dipshit right, it's always annoyed the shit out of me when people get on stage and jump around like idiots.

[Happy0]

lmao... Maynard liek owned that dude there...

Halarious... But I wonder if it was planned, 'cause it seemed to come at an appropriate part of the song... Even more funny if it was random. :D.

[slvgdvg]

how did this video get so many views today? I wonder is someone linked it. hmm.
