  • Apparently, from what i've read, Keenan is a purple belt in Brazilian JiuJitsu. That fan never saw it comin'.

  • Badass. Simply Badass. Choke a Motherfucker out while continuing to sing the song perfectly.

  • If you wouldn't take that? You don;t fuckin belong there in the first place....

  • umm not sure id call this choking out. he kinda just sat on him and rocked out for most of it haha

  • if you listen closely you can hear chuck norris shit himself

  • L O fucking L. Maynard= world's greatest troll.

  • that fan is still head banging at 6:30 LOL That fan is even good for the reputeaiton of the band WOW awesome man

  • The vid doesn't show what happened, the guy ran on stage so Maynard judo threw him then choked him out while not missing a note/lyric. The rest was just him messing with the guy before security kicked him out.

  • that guy fucked up the song listen

  • He's humping him

  • I would've loved that if I was that fan.

  • Jesus Maynard....wtf

  • Can someone explain what had happened? I'm just interested in the truth about the footage.

  • Comment removed

  • well its maynard and he is acting a bit pervert again :)))

    gotta love that guy!!

  • Maynards moves like an alien to me. lol lol his movments seem unhuman at times. Most artests would of had that guy pulled off the stage maynard not only subdues him but gives him a bit of a warning and calming all at the same time.

    At the end the guy is left almost dazed???

  • To any that asked & were wondering, the guy in the suit is Heitham Al-Sayad from Senser.

  • i love people saying, 'yo, i wouldn't take that, him holding me down.' o.k., attack Maynard, and if you actually succeed, have fun dealing with Danny!

    

  • @doobopsheewaa Haha I laughed reading that, Danny Carey would kick their fucking ass. His arms are like half a foot wide.

  • @doobopsheewaa lol i'd love it if he held me down like that!xD

  • @doobopsheewaa Not only would I have take that, but they would have had to mop the stage after I had a fricken' orgasm.

  • he also wraps the mic chord around his neck at around

    5:50... he wasnt goin anywhere

  • Your right. Any Tool fan would love to be chocked. It's so honoring to be chocked by "The King"..

    I'm Just trying to think for myself, question the whole "maynard authority" [even he is such for a lot of you] so fuck you, I'm just sharing my thoughts here. Telling me to grow balls is an infantile response. S

    eems to me everything Maynard will do will be accepted by his loyal blinded fans as holy and great. i'm just giving a different point of view, just to mix this whole sheep-like uniformity.

  • @filthyjuden It's 'choked', not 'chocked'...Thought you'd like to know...

  • Being humiliated in front of a crowd.

    and if the fan was trippin' and needed to be "calmed and taken care of" [like some said] i'm sure there are much better more "caring" ways than this [i would want to die if i'd be in his place].

    To me it just showed an ugly side of Maynard i'm sad to see. if this was actually not staged, and i really hope it was. I know we are all humans and have good and bad but this to me just contradicts a lot of what seemed to beTool's principals and view of how to act.

  • @filthyjuden Any tool fan would KILL to be choked out by Maynard, I think you're one of those douchebag's that gives a fuck about stupid shit. Grow some balls man

  • @ShelburzTheInsane Man whatever. I love tool and wouldnt jump on the stage in the first place but lets just say I did get a wild hair up in my ass to do that, I wouldnt just fuckin let him hold me like that. Maynard or not.

  • @Speer82 You wouldn't get onstage because you're afraid of Maynard?

  • @Speer82 I wouldn't jump onstage either, but I sure would let him hold me like that, but then I AM a chick.

  • @filthyjuden I think what he did was great. The fan needed to learn some respect. It's fucking rude to run up onstage do what that fan did! Maynard took it easy on him too. That throw was controlled and pretty gentle. Any humiliation that guy may have felt was washed away by how awesome of a moment that was. Either way, I think he may have learned a lesson. I sure hope so.

  • First of all i really hope this was staged, it would be much more reasonable to me. I love Tool and really respect Maynard for his ideas, point of view and action, but it's really hard for me to see him in this video. didn't expect from someone who sings "we are all one", "Crucify the ego" and becoming better human beings to give some dush a trauma for his life, how wrong and stupid the fan was.

  • ah they didnt show it, when that guy gets up there Maynard acts like he's gonna hug him like "come here buddy" and then he just throws him down like a bitch haha

  • THat guy is the happiest mother fcker....no he will not try to collect money. he is with the band on stage for the whole song. he is in heaven....

  • @medik9 if you think he's in heaven at that moment you must be smoking some kind of super crack... Those chakras are being destroyed.

  • i wonder if that was someone with the band... otherwise i'm really interested in hearing about the outcome of the law suit! i was at a Guns and Roses show were Axl hit me in the head with a boot jumping into the crowd and, damnit, i want some cheezeburgerz!

  • I wuldnt wanna piss Maynard off...but DANG! I wish he wuld sit on me & SCRRREEAAMMM into my face !! *-*

  • Comment removed

  • "The guy on the floor was my boyfriend."

  • I wish I was that fan! LOL xD

  • Would anyone believe me if i tell you i was that guy? :P

  • This is fucking pretty retarded of Maynard to fuck with the guy who's tripping that hard. Humping and riding him for half an hour isn't going to "Enlighten" shit !

    to-j8sony.

    i was at that show and the guy fucking wigged out lost his mind, never was right in the head again. I saw him humping his couch the other day.

  • The guys is just sitting there like, "Fuck Yeah!! I'm getting strangles to death by Maynard."

  • Haha, "The guy on the floor is my boyfriend."

    Maynard is so awesome. Dude is a stupid asshole for rushing the stage like that. I've been listening to them for about 6 years and I had the great honor and pleasure of seeing them play live last year. In my opinion, no other band alive rocks as hard as Tool.

  • get the ffff of the stage good job m..k..

  • An epic moment in history. period. as trivial as it appears to be. this is epic without a doubt.

  • For all you idiots that associate this with sexuality that is called a rear naked choke.

  • @XNorrinxRaddX Well, you've proven my beliefs to be true: that the average Joe can't think for himself. It IS quite a profound situation - one you seem to be unable to see. How a mind like yours even got around to viewing this clip escapes me. By the way, the phrase is "Delusions" of grandeur. It means one is delusional in their thoughts about how grandiose they might me. Maynard is the exact opposite of that proven in a number of ways: 1 - he goes out of his to not be recognized.....

  • @j8sony ... often wearing costumes so he won't be recognized so that his kids can have a normal life free of their father's would-be idolatory; 2-everyone knows Maynard and Tool go out of their way to have thier likeness removed from their music. I wish you could open your mind and see deeper - this isn't sex or ridicule, but safety with love.

  • i really dont understand all that hippy bliber blabber what he did isnt tool its called a rear naked choke......

  • Why is he humping that guy while hes down ??

    thats a bit fucking weird...

  • I would love for Keenan to sit on my back and belt a song in my head my that would be Epic

  • Dudes !! you want to know Who can hold the TOOL Color in 2011 THIS WILL MAKE YOU BELIEVE INTO SOMETHING NEW

    search on youtube

    LizZard The Orbiter

    LizZard it s something New and gonna take you into a really Strange trip

  • That was fucking awesome! When a fan rushes the stage you never know what to expect.  They could hurt you, someone else, or themselves and for Maynard to do what he did just shows how cool he really is. He could have had security rush that kid off the stage but instead he let him stay for the whole song with the best seat in the house!

  • Confused about this one. He either staged this,knew the guy was tripping balls and just tried to calm him down, but it looked like he was dry humping the dude. But,he always moves like that on stage. He did put the cord around his neck. Just proves that Maynard (on stage)always puts on a mysterious show. I'm sure everyone got their money's worth. Don't sneak up on people,man.

  • Wow, what a bunch of homophobes. U guys hiding something about yourselves that u don't want us to know?

  • who was the guest singer?

  • YOU GO MAYNARD!!!! FOR THAT TEN MINUTES OF THIS CONCERT, THAT FAN BECAME MAYNARD'S BITCH (in a nonsexual way) WHAT I'M WONDERING IS WHERE HE LEARNED THAT TAKE DOWN, THE MILITARY ACADEMY?

  • @TheAidandrums dude he just hip tossed him

  • Maynard is staight up HUMPIN that guy!!! Jiu-jitsu doesn't envolve repeatedly pushing your dick up on somebodies back! Take him down...cool. Sit on him for a minute to let him know he is not in control...cool. Grinding your balls on him for ten minutes...Gay! Looks to me like he should get together with Korn's lead singer!

  • why dont yall all go call maynard gay to his fuckin face and see what happens

  • why dont yall all go call maynard gay to his fuckin face and see what happens

  • thats gay no matter what, and, Maynard was molested as a kid.

  • Shortsighted Youtubedudes:-)

    it's not gay...clearly, and even if if it was, fuck you...

  • but wouldnt he have a fatty when he stood up if it was gay?

  • Omg, i am so jealous ! That dudes getting ridden by Maynard! I would bare through that beat to end up under him anyday ; )

  • Wow. I respect Maynard so much. He has so intention of hurting someone out of hate. He just keeps the person under control and he does it with compassion. That just shows how mentally advanced and ahead he is of all of us.

  • @ThreenotFour Probably the most dumbarse comment I've seen in a long time.

  • that guy seems to be trippin real hard

  • Anyone else see the guy get kicked in the balls at about 1:19?

  • @MrFatkids4life yah!!

    hahayhahahja

  • @MrFatkids4life Noticed that too! Hilarious!

  • @MrFatkids4life Yeah, I had to do a double take on that one. At first I thought it was just a "giddy up" kick, but it was in the nuts.

  • Last I checked he was a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu; ain't nothing gay or staged about it. They knew he could take one drunk idiot.

  • You all know this is staged right?

  • is he humping him?

  • Maynard kicks ass

  • 1. im pretty sure that maynard severley changed that guy. hes pretty much fucking him. at no time does maynards dick loose connection with that guy... 2. is that bill hicks? 3. that would not be a fan cause they would have been sued, I guarantee it.... you cant rape a fan onstage, pretty sure that goes beyond police allowances...

  • He was displaying his Brazilian Jui-Jitsu skills! Nice job.

  • who was the guy that came on and sang for a minute?

  • Looks like he had the ... best seat in the house.

    YYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEA­AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!

  • i wonder wat was goin threw both their heads wen all this went down o.O

  • wish i was that fan lucky azzhole

  • RIDE THAT DONKAY

  • Why would you cut out the judo throw...fail

  • This might be 1993.... he's wearing the same thing (boxers only) and I think he's painted ALL blue. (As he was at University of Puget Sound in Oct. 1993)

  • @TacomaPaul no aenima didnt come out til 1996

  • @xXKaMrAn94Xx True.... but is that song from Aenima ? I dunno...

  • @TacomaPaul I just checked ticket stub.. Oct. 24, 1996 !  In Tacoma, WA... so yeah ! $16.50 !

  • @TacomaPaul yea it is, its the 11th song on the album

  • what is the date of this show?

  • lol the security just let maynard take care of that guy except for the part after he tackled him...

  • thats gotta be a stage act

  • "that guy on the floor is my boyfriend" XD

  • @chrisslipknt444 that guy stangling ur boyfriend is my boyfriend jkjk lol

  • @chrisslipknt444 sure he is

  • @GanjaKahn42O what? lol it was a quote from the vid.

  • @chrisslipknt444 ok well I didn't hear it, sorry.

  • I'd be honored to get my ass kicked by maynard.

  • Lmfao. I love how they're all just chilling. And Maynard's riding a stupid kid like a crazy motherfucking donkey! :D

  • Can't stop laughing

    oh god

    oh god it hurts

  • algun español que me pueda explicar que dice al final plis??

  • @basfbfaoc "el tipo en el suelo es mi novio" /"en toda la cancion el estaba cantando" "/ "el es Nathan, el gran pretendidor" o algo asi

  • @noname91910 gracias! =D

  • text book jits

  • i lol'd so hard

  • Frickin' hilarious. The guy got what he had coming, jumping up on stage and getting in Maynard's space like that. Maynard did what a decent guy would - he took the guy down (without injuring him, it looks like, or doing anything more than neutralizing a potentially dangerous situation), and then used the situation to put on an awesome show for the crowd. All without missing a beat - he even kept singing when he had the guy wrapped up. One more reason why Maynard's awesome.

  • Comment removed

  • prolly staged

  • that shit was fkn ghey

  • Maynard had said him self he don't want to be idolized. He is just an artist, a father, a person. I'm sure if you tried to have a normal convo with him he would let it.

  • dude, he's riding the guy for 10 minutes..ill bet maynard was more fucked up then the fan was

  • i would love to be choked out by keenan, dudes a fuckin beast

  • The dude was tripping hard core. Good to see Maynard care for a dude like that and then show him how to control the high instead of flipping out. After that the dude was in sync with the music and could control the stone.

  • luckyest mother fucker ever!!!yes brandon its me :)

  • Any of you dumb asses who are of the opinion that this is any way gay or sexual have your head up your asses and are missing some real enlightment. Enlightment that Tool has tried to give us. That fan is tripping BALLS and Maynard is taking care of him, showing him how to embrace the moment, (and who wouldn't kill for that kind of intimacy with Maynard?) And Maynard embraces the moment too, and it becomes what it becomes, and that, you fucking morons, IS Tool!

  • @j8sony COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER MYSELF!

  • @j8sony Still pretty gay if you ask me

  • @j8sony what the hell can you tell from watching this amount maynards intension? I wish I knew everything like you. shit

  • @j8sony He has the mic cord wrapped round his neck, you can see him looping it round ~5:50 rocking on it the whole way through and at 8:03 the cord is clearly visible around the dude's neck.

    He jumps up on stage, gets choked out which is why he stops moving and every time he moves too much he gets choked again with the mic cord.

    Maynard is a legend.

  • @j8sony OMG YEEEESSSSS! You get it! This is love in it's purest form. Maynard is LETTING him feel the music, like...... allowing this man to feel what HE feels, sharing himself with this man in a manner that transcends sexual intimacy. He didn't wrap himself around this man, he wrapped himself INTO this man.

  • @j8sony also, embarrassment

  • @j8sony need to see the whole vid buddy.. dude jumps on stage Maynard flips his ass over onto the ground and pins him in a head lock... yup..

  • @j8sony that actually teaches me more about tool and maynard than I ever knew. I'm a fan of tool but I didn't know that. Not because I'm ignorant or jumped on the youtube bango wangons, and not that I haven't done that probably from few bands that I've heard before, but is it just me or is the volume kind of low on this track? Oh yeah, tool is the best genre or music I've ever fuckin heard. 

  • @j8sony i was going to say those exact words

  • Any of you dumb asses who are of the opinion that this is any way gay or sexual have your head up your asses and are missing some real enlightment. Enlightment that Tool has tried to give us. That fan is tripping BALLS and Maynard is taking care of him, showing him how to embrace the moment, (and who wouldn't kill for that kind of intimacy with Maynard?) And Maynard embraces the moment too, and it becomes what it becomes, and that, you fucking morons, IS Tool!

  • Good to see Maynard had the common courtesy to give the guy a dry hump to put his mind at ease lol!

  • Good to see Maynard had the common courtesy to give the guy a dry hump to put his mind at ease lol!

  • 13 ppl were manhandled by maynard

  • hey...i love maynard and Tool and APC and Puscifer,but this video doesnt really change my views on maynard. i would have gotten pissed too if some random guy came out on stage and tried to hug me in the middle of a song. all of u guys that are like "OMG i would have loved to be choked or beat up by maynard!" really need to shut up because that is just stupid and makes u sound like a crazy fanatic...sorry.

  • @Righthandfingerman Lol fag. you probly listen to metallica rofl, get a life loser troll piece of shit cocksucker faggot bitch whore dickshit.

  • Maynard is now a professional in two things..1.Singing....2..Jujits­u Martial Arts. That would be kind of cool to see these two things more often.

  • Not sure if you could ask for a better story to tell your friends... "Yeah, Maynard kicked my ass in front of an audience. Then I got to hear him sing with his mouth one inch from my ear. I could also swear I felt something hard poking me in the back at some point"...

  • maynard could dry hump me in front of thousands on a stage at his show.. anytime...

  • He's simply taking advantage of his position as Maynard! THE GREAT!!!! To abuse some drunk kid. Have any of you youtube fags ever been in a rear naked choke? I doubt it. You wouldn't feel so lucky. Bottom line, hes a conceited bully who thinks he's special. NAPOLEON SYNDROME look it up tubefags

  • @rainmhf If Maynard had really choked him, the guy wouldn't be conscious for more than 4 seconds, specially since he was tripping balls and what not. Maynard was really just disarming him to stop him from doing something REALLY stupid, and then lets him have the best seat in the house. How does that make him a bully?

  • All I know is me and the missus saw Tool at Shoreline in the Bay area about six or seven years ago and a kid from the Make-A-Wish foundation came out and banged on the drums with Tool for a song or two. After he was done, Maynard got down on one knee and kissed the kid's hand. That's all I need to know about Maynard besides the music.

  • He's actually keeping the kid from getting hurt or hurting himself... It's obvious that Maynard knows the kid is fucked up and is keeping him there til the song is over, not to mention he's keeping the kid from flipping out and having a bad trip...

    Maynard loves his fans, and for someone to not understand what he's doing and saying idiotic things like *rainmhf* makes you a tool, and a fucking idiot...

  • @ToastyGir Trust me cunt, Maynard hates you. He hates your love of him like some god. He says at the end of the video "I took the guy to the floor and hes banging his head" like mocking his blind worship of him after he slammed him and choked him out. The same EXACT way YOU thin that "he lovess uss ooo" dumb cunt

  • @rainmhf no rainmhf, he hates you, and people like you. The dumb, the blind, the sheep, the "know it alls", the too set in their ways to open their minds and see things differently. I honestly feel bad for you. I bet you were abused. Poor lost soul. maybe if you put down your video games and porn long enough to actually learn something useful, you may think differently, otherwise shut up, you don't even like Tool, why even bother arguing something you don't know about?

  • @ToastyGir Fuckin ay! I think I love you. You get it!

  • @ToastyGir Well said. \m/

  • Maynard is a faggot. HE HATES HIS FANS and after seeing all the comments you puppets posted about how "lucky" this poor guy was, I know why. Lucky to get slammed, choked out, and humiliated for 10 minutes (while probably tripping) by someone you admire and risk going to jail for, just for wanting a hug???? You're a bunch of sheep and fanatics with no self dignity. You fucking tools. Your the kind of people he despises and makes a living off of you fucking monkeys!!!

  • @rainmhf U mad?

  • lulzz amidoinitrite? Naw but its true Maynard choked that kid out and rode him for 10 minutes while he was tripping balls. Can you imagine what that was like? Have you ever met someone you admired and they were an asshole? That shit really bumms you out, like no Santa.

  • @rainmhf I see your point on that one.

  • @rainmhf Still, a stage is the place for business. I'd be a little creeped out by people coming on stage. You never know who you're going to meet.

  • @EnigmaticUnseen Definitely. I mean look at dimebag but where the fuck was security????

  • @rainmhf In a perfect world, everyone would know everyone and we could all chill and enjoy it... but alas.

  • @EnigmaticUnseen if only more ppl got that :P

  • @rainmhf like its really appropriate to ask for a hug while a band is performing; self defense. thats all. You said it yourself " probably tripping" and thats exactly why you wouldnt want " just a hug" from someone like that.

  • @SingularityGT

    Yet who's to say Maynard's never had intellegent conversation with others? I'm sure if you were to meet Maynard backstage or something and were to strike up a debate topic he'd get into it. But if you're just some groupie bitch or fanatic fan he'll probably rape you (see above lol). The image we get from him is unapproachable, but if approached politely and respectfully I'm sure he wouldn't diss you. No one does that but Axel Rose!

  • @SingularityGT

    I don't like the fact that he's arrogant and unapproachable (at least that's certainly the vibe he gives off) but I don't hate him for it or dislike him. He acts the way he does for his own personal reasons. Whether we agree with them or not is irrelevant (though we all have the right to voice our disapproval). All I'm saying is that Maynard gives us all something in return. We don't have to be LIKE him, but we can still learn from him. That's all I'm saying.

  • @SingularityGT

    True, but Maynard doesn't need to play instruments to be a genius. And without Maynard, Tool is no more. Just like if you take out Danny, Justin or Adam out of the equation. They're perhaps the most steady, equilibrated band out there right now. But Maynard is highly intellegent. He has a gift. His lyrics are deep, profound, witty, creative and fresh, he uses the climaxes well, he always nails the right tone for the right part of the song. He's certainly highly intelligent.

  • @SingularityGT

    I'm not too sure about what Maynard has been through in his life, but I can forgive him for his behavior. The choice innevitably comes down to you, whether or not you'll be shaken by his acts or insults. Guns N Roses I don't listen to because Axl is gratuitously mean because of an inflated ego. Maynard is a genius. He really is. Sometimes, however, there's a fine line between genius and mentally ill. Not saying he's crazy, just saying he deserves a certain amount of respect.

  • @SingularityGT

    Different people deal with different situations differently. Maynard acts the way he acts because of his issues, others will seek attention, others will beat their kids and spouse and others will stuff it inside and kill themselves slowly. There's no right or wrong way of doing it. Walk a mile in someone's shoes before judging them... I firmly believe in that saying.

    If people don't like Maynard, they don't have to listen to him. I choose to overlook his jerkiness lolll.

  • @SingularityGT

    Oh! Don't get me wrong, this is bloody hilarious when it's happening to someone else. But Maynard's shit is the same as mine, there's no fucken way in hell I'd ever let anyone dry hump me in front of thousands of people. Maynard is no exception. He's a jerk, yeah, but I don't think it's cuz he knows he can get away with it... I think Maynard has some unresolved issues that make him so hostile and unapproachable.

  • I like the fact that he just gets up at the end and like any other casual fuck, turns his back on the guy and walks away haha, total classic, Maynard for president..!

  • The only possible way this could be funnier is if it happened during Prison Sex and Maynard started dry humping the guy

  • Kings of Leon end their set because a bird shit in the bassist's mouth, but Maynard fucking sings while half RNC'ing some dipshit. Beautiful.

  • O.K. A few things!

    - Dignity has nothing to do with this... everyone would love to say they got ridden by Maynard any day

    - The second guy came on stage and he didn't get dry humped. whats with that?

    - That guy in the suit that comes on stage with the mic looked like he was reading the guy underneath Maynard he's rights or something. like "You don't have the right to sew us for dry humping you on stage"

    - Maynard threw this guy to the floor in one swift "hug tackle". I fucking love this band XD.

  • @KoRnYkId0 Ha, fucking excellent!

    The throw is actually called koshi-nage, a favourite of mine ans, apparently, Maynards!

  • To be honest, what did you want the guy to do. His humiliation level was already through the roof (let's be honest, he was exactly being dominant, was he?) and fighting to get Maynard off would probably have gotten him cock slapped or something lolllll. If it were me under him, I probably would have waited till he move just a bit and then would've tried pushing him off. I love TOOl and respect Maynard a lot, but I still need my dignity...

  • can anyone tell me who the guy singing that took the mic from maynard is?

  • who the fuck is that guy????

  • this kid is a pussy
