This guy could've probably gotten so much money out of the company, looked like a poor victim, and gotten the employee fired and on the spotlight. Instead he got himself fired and in jail, what a fucking genius.
@@Stealther Still, at least try to sue. My son has an amoxicillin allergy, if a little walk in clinic gave him amoxicillin and I didn’t know I wouldn’t care I would try to sue. I wouldn’t threaten these poor high school girls, and I sure as hell would not end up in jail because then I couldn’t help or protect my son.
@@Ninnjette- oh I’m not saying don’t sue. I just don’t think that those who think he would have won a lot of money in court are correct. I think the lawsuit would stress the importance of the handling of food allergens.
@@Stealther Ahhh! I got ya. Sorry. Yeah you wouldn’t get much from a little smoothie shop. Do you think criminal charges could have been pressed? That would mean the person that made the smoothie, would have to of had bad intentions though. Right? Maybe
The person I feel really bad for is the son. He gets fed a peanut butter drink with a peanut butter allergy, gets sent to the hospital, then his dad gets arrested and sent to prison
the father being upset and wanting some kind of formal apology, maybe even legal action is totally reasonable. assaulting the staff is completely unreasonable.
"the father being upset and wanting some kind of formal apology, maybe even legal action is totally reasonable" No. The dad knew his kid has an allergy to an extremely common food. Despite that, and despite knowing there's _always_ a risk of cross-contamination with non-homemade food that isn't made in a dedicated environment, he still chose to get his kid the smoothie. He made a bet and lost. This is 100% on him. It's not the responsibility of some poor schlub making $12/hr, nor of the establishment's owner.
@@AngryReptileKeeper "This is 100% on him." No. When someone asks for no nuts, it is the responsibility of the establishment to, A: assume it's because of an allergy, and B: make sure they don't serve the customer something that will kill them. Yes, there's a risk of cross-contamination, but the reaction was so bad that the boy was hospitalised. It's simply gross negligence.
@@AngryReptileKeeper you can't be serious rn💀it's the workers job to not put peanut butter if a costumer specifically asks for NO PEANUT BUTTER like how tf can you even turn this into the dad's fault. Just cause the kid has a peanut allergy his dad shouldn't buy him a smoothie from a store? lmfao
@@psychicks3463 The guy was harassing employees who had absolutely nothing to do with it. How is that not unreasonable. Obviously he has the right to be angry. No one said otherwise, but he could've took it out on the guy who was actually the reason his son got an allergic reaction. Not just random people. That's not justifiable
@@joshpayton1629 you call the company and sue or get compensation if it syour son, you dont leave him in the car to scream and harass the people working there
Y yes. I can't blame him at all. Things could have turned out badly for all of them if that had happened and the cranky man was someone like me. Like I'm saying, fast food fucks will feed you glass and laugh about it while they are eating the cheese of of other paying customers orders.
The literal best advice he could've gotten, call corporate. His son survived, he has money, he could've bought epipens, sued the business, make smoothies at home from thereon, get a news article made about it, get a movie made out of it and have Patton Oswalt play your character.
He could try to sue but he would lose. The business never gave him any guarantee at all that it would be but free and had no duty to. Unless the story is wrong and he actually mentioned allergies, in which case the employee should have told him that they can't guarantee it will be safe and that it is at his own risk.
Emotions being uncontrollable isn't an excuse for behaviour to be uncontrollable. This is why it's important to teach people how to handle and respond to their emotions in safe and productive ways. If he really needed to get that anger out, he could have gone and sat in his car and screamed at no one. There was no excuse to go in there and harass teenagers.
With that big man job he could have hired an amazing lawyer and got so much from the company. But no, he thought “ah yes, the perfect excuse to be racist and verbally abuse teenagers”
@@jakecheong664 That doesn't excuse his behavior at all he's 48 he should have some level of self restraint and maturity but no he throws a full on tantrum, throws a smoothie at a girl, then proceeds to try and breakthrough the employees only door, I can only imagine the type of dad he is at the house with his anger issues
imagine trying to physically assault and threaten 4 young girls over a smoothie when you could've just sued the company. dude even went to the employee only door to try to kick it down like he was the terminator. what a psychopath
I worked at Dairy Queen for 3 years and we use the same blender for everything and if someone said no peanut butter we wouldn’t put peanuts in it. But if they say allergy we use a whole different blender put on gloves and keep it totally separate. That’s the customer’s responsibility to say. I don’t know if he would’ve won a lawsuit because everything says may contain nuts so that your safe from a lawsuit if the customer fails to tell you. Almost every food business says that to make sure the customer understands they are putting themselves at risk. He is the one responsible for informing the restaurant as I feel any good parent would. This guy is just a horrible person
He could just stay with his son and sue the business,but he literally chose the worst route. Imagine being his son and seeing your father get arrested and lose his job right after you get out of the hospital.
Money and lawyers wont bring your son back if he would have died and caused his son suffering when he asked no peanuts. And the person who put the nuts gets no repercussions and will go on to do it again.
He shouldn't be taking his allergic kid anywhere where nuts are handled anyway, make him a smoothie at home, it's not that hard, especially if you're fuckin rich.
I feel for the girls. Even though he is justified in his emotions, he went way further than he should've, and it must've been fucking terrifying dealing with him
Justified in his emotions??? A simple person can understand mistakes happen. This smooth brain adult badass tuff guy thinks it was done on purpose by the way he acted.
@@yourmusictastesukshe's justified in feeling a way because his son was hospitalized and could've died after eating something they both figured didnt have peanuts in it, but that's as far as his justification goes. It seems you missed the point of the op.. by a few miles Any good company would assume any "no nuts/peanut butter" order means severe nut allergy. But that doesn't justify the assault and racial remarks, only the anger
@@yourmusictastesuks people who thinks in extreme like you are so stupid. I bet if charlie made this video as "smoothie place almost killed a boy" you'd say the teenagers as the smooth brain one. his rage was justified, he's angry. rightfully so. but he took miles with it, and that's not okay.
@@Maruhodo I don't know about you but I don't believe headlines or titles or anything like that before doing just the most basic research... I don't get what is justified about doing an action, even during an angry moment, that makes you go to jail. An adult no less, should know the consequences. I do see now that my comment made it seem as if you cannot be angry, and my comment towards the guy is in relation to his actions.
I had a vegan restaurant that wouldn't even serve me because of all the cross contamination with almonds in their kitchen (almond milk, almond butter, frying stuff in peanut oil, etc). Now imagine if I'd never mentioned my allergy to them or the severity and had just said "no nuts", then came back in there actin a complete ass because I expected strangers to look out for my health better than I could be bothered to look out for my own 🤦🏾♀️
At the end of the day the restaurants are making your food and if you ask for something without it it doesn't matter the reason it's their responsibility to make it without it
@@Spiralredd It's not reasonable to expect any restaurant kitchen to operate in sterile lab conditions though. If one milligram of nut dust will kill you, then you probably shouldn't be eating at places that serve nuts in the first place. And it is absolutely your responsibility to notify the restaurant that it's a life or death scenario, and not just because you aren't hungry for nuts.
@@somethingelse4424 okay you didn't ask that restaurant to be open. None of us did. We are not responsible for anything we pay them to give us food they are 100% responsible for making sure that food is prepared how we ask it to be. It is not unreasonable to expect it when you are paying for it.
It is unreasonable. Even in factory made pre packaged food (a way more controlled environment) you'll often see seals like "contains traces of nut", or "this product was processed in lines that also process nuts". You are choosing to be either naive or entitled about this. Specially if we are talking about menu items which already contain said ingredient and you just oot out, you do not know how "sterile", as some already told you, that product is gonna be. At that ñoint you are being iresponsible as a customer.
@@magical571 Yeah... I've eaten food out of a package before, and shockingly can read. I'm not sure if you're actually even replying to me, because we seem to agree that overreacting would be the wrong decision here 🤣
I stopped watching it because it hurts to see. His son couldve gotten in a much terrible situation but at the same time he shouldn't have taken it out on innocent people
The people making the smoothie probably thought it was just an omission to reduce calories. As someone who made smoothies for a few years, the caloric value of pb was the most common reason to omit it from orders, not allergies.
fr... i have a peanut allergy and u gotta either make it known you have an allergy or go to a place that doesn't use pb, or just accept your allergy lmao
@@chrissaunders6274 I had a guy ask if there was a way to make one peanut free (glad he asked) but unfortunately there was no way we could safely make one for him. Same with a guy who has celiac disease. All it takes is one person to accidentally touch stuff and it's game over. Because lord knows when we're in a hurry, things can get sloppy
that does not matter at all. how the person orders it is how they should receive it. this reminds me of the people who dont give diet soda bec of "fatphobia" or whatever. its literally endangering lives to not give orders as they were requested.
@@avidsweaterenjoyer and they did receive it without peanut butter lol. There's a difference between saying "no peanut butter" and "no peanut or nut containing products". It's not that hard to understand and shifts the burden away from the responsible party.
Sorry if I missunderstood my english isnt the greatest :,) But just because they thought it was to reduce calories doesnt give them the right to add peanut butter in it anyways, that must be a thing in that country, if someone asks to not have something added because of an allergy we take it very seriously, cause if they happen to die because of your oopsie, you will most like end up in jail Sorry for any weird typos, if that isnt what they meant then nvm ;-;
Another thing to be aware of is that pretty much everywhere you go you're gonna get some kind of cross contamination so if his son had that bad of an allergy he should have known to ask about how they prepare there smoothies. His sons health is no one's responsibility but his. If he'd told them he was getting the smoothie for someone with an allergy and they still used contaminated utensils then he has a case against them. But if all he said was no peanut butter, it's on him.
I was looking for this comment, everyone here is wrong saying he had a lawsuit. Not really, even protein powders state that cross-contamination its a possibility most products have this warning if he really cared that much he would not go to a smoothie shop period and or specified it better. He committed multiple crimes here, tresspassing when asked to leave, assault and tried to forced entry into the establishment.
Agreed. Ooting for a menu item that contains peanut butter by default,and is prepared alongside similar items, just to opt out of the single ingredient, doesn't mean at all he'll get an "alergy safe" final product. As a 48 year old and a father, he should know better...i would feel like i'm tempting fate if i did that to a loved one who depends on me. Why even go there or choose that item in the first place....
He still can a paper cup versus a hospital trip that you might not return from is a big difference! If he was a minority it would be the store closing down. Because if the law didn’t support it then the mob would make sure it happened anyhow!
Literally if he had have stayed with his son in the hospital, waited till he was back up 2 health and handled the situation and called the place out 4 their mistakes he could have gotten somewhere
@@electrocuti he still can! Just because he handled it improperly doesn’t mean the son doesn’t have rights to be safe in a store! If it happened to your wife for example do you think the courts gonna say well your husband showed his ass so we’re not interested in the danger to your wife, so we’re gonna let the store off because of what her husband did while she was in the hospital!!
@@JayHarrisGuitarLessons yeah fair enough actually but he shouldn't have handled it the way he did, although I understand his anger in a sense bc his son could have died
@@electrocuti yeah he was wrong n deserves any criticism out there but they also need to get rid of that girl that immediately got ghetto and kept saying bye! She was saying but we didn’t do it bye, OK call corporate bye, all right get out of here bye - if she wouldn’t of been filmed I’d expect from her actions something like her hand going up and saying not my problem talk to the hand, or saying what, what,what! instead of we’re sorry that happened I’ll get you some information and we’ll find out for you! Imagine if she was the manager of three of your stores, lol! If that would’ve been a woman I believe she would of come over the counter and pulled her weave out, lol! Keep in mind that’s the best she could control herself and she knew they were being recorded he didn’t!
I feel bad for the son because the father obviously cared so much about his son, that when ordering, he couldn’t be bothered to take the time to inform the staff that the drink was for someone with an allergy. I know ppl with different food allergies, and every single one makes sure that it clear to the server, because it is dangerous. It is not something you just assume. It is something you make sure is clearly known and acknowledged.never something you just forget, especially if it is your child at risk. It is so automatic that you say it without really thinking it, then double check when you receive it. There may be a case against the server, but this man just showed major and unforgivable neglect in the care for his son.
@@StixFerryMan exactly. I’ve seen so many people attack the smoothie place by saying that the dad shouldn’t need to specify the allergy because it’s standard practice to sterilise everything when someone asks for an item sans ingredient, and maybe that’s true. But it still doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t state the allergy up front. When you eat out with an allergy like that your rolling a dice, you have no idea how clean the kitchen, how robust their practices are or how well trained or experienced the staff are. In a smoothie place most people will be teens and probably minimum wage with little training so are you willing to roll the dice by leaving it up to chance? Or are you going to take 10 seconds to mention your kids allergy so there is no room for misunderstanding? I don’t see how anyone could argue that the former option is reasonable.
I assume if this is his temper towards high school girls and racist mentality, I feel even worse for the kid that that’s his father that he has to deal with for the rest of his life.
Bro he’s just crazy I worked at a pizza place and a man needed a gluten free pizza and we fucked up and sent the wrong one, his son had to go to the hospital but this man just called to get a refund and he got like 10 free pizzas
How about this. If you have allergies so severe that a simple mistake can put in the hospital. Don't eat out, or do so very sparingly and make it very clear how severe a mistake could be.
@@cheezwiz8425wjjeje I have a severe nut allergy. Thing is, I would never ever act the way this oaf did, because I that a lot of people are ignorant about how bad allergies can be. I am also aware that most restaurants/cafes have traces of nuts in EVERYTHING, they can literally never guarantee. Some servers are incompetent or overworked, It's your job to specify that you want a separate scooper/blender, they aren't there to safeguard your kid.
@@FirstLast-yr9kxBut it wasn’t even the girls who made the smoothie, it was a previous worker that was no longer there. If you’re going to complain and throw a fit at least get the culprits correctly.
He had the right to be angry over what happened to his son but he handled it in the absolute worst way possible, you cant be acting like that towards 4 high school aged girls who are alone in a store by themselves
He told them not to put peanut butter in the smoothie, which they complied with, but he failed to mention it was due to allergy reasons and since many ingredients contain traces of peanuts, there was nothing they could do. This is all on this fool of a father.
@@orboakin8074 Peanut allergies aren't rare. It's not the enormous leap in logic to realise that not putting allergens in food means avoiding trace amounts as well that you think it is. They endangered a life with their incompetence and therefore should be responsible for it.
getting angry after having your son hospitalised is justified, but assaulting people with nothing to do with it and being racist is unnecessarily aggressive and Charlie is right, it would've turned out much better if he just sued
Well, he maybe thought they were trying to cover each other by saying they didn't knew who did it, but still an horrible reaction and doesn't excuse anything he said and did
Sad story guys😢, On 14 January, 2022 My son Timothy Fernandus dissapeared. He left a note saying that he was being constantly bullied by Beluga fans all over the world. He was mentally harmed and harrassed to the point where he likely did something bad. I am not an emotional guy but this truly enrages me that how far is Beluga willing to go the sake of views.
Nah… this guy was 100% to blame for what happened to his son, how can you fail to mention that YOUR SON is allergic to peanuts?? Simply saying “no peanuts” does in no way imply you have an allergy, that is such negligence for his sones well being… and also even if he didn’t go all “tough guy” he had 0 grounds for a case due to failing to disclose the allergy in the first place, father of the year here
Sure, however the employees were actually being quite unprofessional themselves; they had a very nonchalant attitude, almost like they were saying "whatever, it's not our fault", instead of simply apologizing on behalf of the company. It doesn't matter if _they_ weren't the ones who made that smoothie - that is beside the point.
@@vincentlucario5450 Sure, however my issue with the employees' reactions is that they seemed more concerned with escaping blame, instead of the fact that this guy's son had a serious allergic reaction from something that he had bought there; the employees essentially have an attitude like "okay, your son may have ended up at the hospital, _but_ none of us in here made that specific smoothie". If I were an employee at that workplace, then I would immediately apologise for the general unpleasant outcome of the whole situation, and try my best to set things right; people who work in the service industry aren't supposed to escalate arguments with their customers. And sure, the guy in this video obviously overreacted in unacceptable ways, but the employees might have been able to keep him from reacting that way if they tried to set things right to the best of their ability before he started becoming racist and violent; he _did_ have a valid reason to be angry at the beginning, and that was when the customers should have shown genuine concern for the whole situation, even if it wasn't those specific employees who were directly responsible for that smoothie.
@@Peter_1986 so they shouldn’t point out the obvious? Like he could be mad, but don’t be mad at people who have no background knowledge on his kid, he should be mad at himself for not making that clear and using racist remarks. Yes, the employees’ attitudes aren’t excellent, but at the same time, this was a classic Karen move. Yelling at employees and blaming them for not having the full scope of the situation when they weren’t given any additional information.
@@Peter_1986he literally stormed into the store being extremely aggressive and verbally abusive to a group of teenage girls, as a middle aged man. you expect those girls to suddenly become professional customer service workers, especially when there's some dude screaming at them at their job? the girls shouldn't have "been able to keep him from reacting that way", a grown man should have a better grasp of how to control his emotions than a few girls in high school. do you hear yourself? you can't actually, realistically expect these girls to react positively to this dude and be able to calm him down. maybe in whatever utopia you think we live in, but human people have human reactions. you're expecting a lot of professionalism from a few teenage girls that you somehow don't expect from him? what, cause he's angry he gets a pass for his behavior? that is just not how the world works.
I feel so bad for his son. Has a severe allergic reaction, goes to the hospital, and then his *extremely* breadwinning dad loses his job and reputation (as well as becomes a laughing stock online) so now suddenly any hospital bills will feel very real when before, Mr. Big Money could have very comfortably provided for his son, paid the hospital AND taken the smoothie business to court if only he hadn't been a huge fucking idiot.
@@Key.Fantasy You sure? lmao Doesn't drop the fact if he had kept at least one braincell online he'd done better justice for his son in a courtroom than getting his outrage video recorded to instagram.
You're severely misjudging the level of racism some of the bigshots have. Just like that little twerp Rittenhouse is now a conservative darling. this guy is going to be fine.
I don't even think so. If I had to guess there is a sign saying nuts are used in the area. You are kind of taking a risk. If risk of easylawsuits, corporations would just say no can do and not offer the service.
Yeah he definitely should've sued. And no, he doesn't need to say "because of allergies"...a nut allergy is so common that any respectable food establishment should understand its probably because of allergies. I say this as someone who hangs out with quite a few people with nut allergies and have never had any problems with just saying "no nuts". There's no excuse for the employee who made the smoothie. Straight up. He should've sued and he would've won. Instead he wants to be a jackass. Yikes.
@@TheCarGarZar what do yoummean would've won? He isn't dead? He ca n still sue lol he could've killed someone there and still sue. I mean he will be in jail for killing and probably be sued by someone. But he can still sue lol. People are so dumb lol but no j don't think he would win. He would have to prove negligence. Accidental nut or nut residue isn't enough.
Still can get money. Maybe even more now. He can still sue. Him being a dick doesn't erase the fact that his son almost died because of the Smoothie company's mistake. Now he can also sue that seeing his son almost die made him crazy and got him fired from a high paying job.
I would feel.sorry for the guy but then I realized as a person with shrimp allergy: why tf would you buy anything from a place which also handle materials you're allergic to???
many people buy things from places that have products they are allergic to. I'm severely allergic to nuts, yet I eat chocolate bars (a majority of chocolate bars come from companies that also use nuts in other products).
The biggest issue for me is he didn't declare to the staff that his son HAD an allergic reaction to the ingredient. Like I cannot stress enough how important it is as someone who works in hospitality/catering, so many people DO NOT remember to specify that, and it's dangerous. If you ask not to have an ingredient, then yeah, ideally, the ingredient won't be in there. But when dealing with allergens you would absolutely take extra steps to avoid cross-contamination because you MIGHT have come into contact with the ingredient prior to that, and you could still unwittingly cause harm to someone. It's so infuriating how many customers do not make that information known to employees so we know to be careful. We can't read minds, just saying you don't want a particular thing is not enough.
I don’t think I can blame the smoothie shop. If you don’t mention an allergy, and say no peanuts, the workers will think you have a preference for no peanuts and there’s no allergy invovled. You should always say there’s a party with an allergy.
@@Blisterdude123 Even if he did declare the allergy, shit happens in environments that handle many different ingredients. There's never a guarantee. When you have an allergy and choose to eat food made in such an environment, you're taking a risk. Sometimes you get burned. Accept responsibility for your choice in taking that risk, and move on.
yeah man. the kid deserves better. i hope he's doing better now. and i hope the dad learns his lesson. it's understandable that he was upset about the situation, but his behavior toward the innocent employees and just the way he handled things is way over the line and unjustifiable. good thing it was recorded, too, the girl did the right thing calling the cops and recording the incident after he crossed the line. what an awful situation for everyone involved.
@@goofballcartoonist7848 nah the girls is just being douchy by being ignorant when asked a question and just whips out a camera instead of deal with it professionally, you don't know how much triggering it was when some punk who got your kid into hospital are being ignorant of your questions and proceed to being ignorant of you
This is a perfect example of why learning to control your temper--even when you have every right to be incredibly angry--is such an important life skill. If he'd gone through the proper channels (ex. complaining to management/corporate, filing a lawsuit, etc.) instead of acting like a racist lunatic and committing assault, he'd very likely be able to get compensation and whoever made the drink reprimanded, he'd still have his cushy job, wouldn't have had his reputation ruined, and wouldn't have gotten arrested.
If you think for even a moment someone is winning a court case based around a peanut allergy you don't understand the courts or food safety in the slightest. The second peanut products enter the door of an establishment all responsibility is placed on the consumer. That's part of the reason peanut free products need to be produced in completely seperate factories.

The guy is a perfect example of "When keeping it real goes wrong".
@@goblinpopcorn1367 Dude it's really way different when you specify "No peanut butter." If you ask for no peanut butter or something of the sort then there's only two options, no in between: you don't like peanut butter in anything or you're allergic. The establishment really is at fault here, not the consumer. Especially since the consumer is absolutely sure there is no nut in this product because he specified. And if there does turned out to be nut after he specified, whos at fault? Certainly not the consumer. Does this mean he should have handled it the way he did? No, of course not. I don't defend racism and assault. Would he have won if he took it to court? Very likely. His son is in the hospital due to peanut butter inside of a drink that he specified should not have peanut butter, and since we don't know how serious this nut allergy is besides the fact that he went to the hospital, I'm assuming he's deathly allergic which means the corporation could be at fault for the death of a child. I still don't care who you are or what status you have in life though, you can't handle any situation the way this man did. Take it to court instead.
@@snowyvul Plus if he'd filed a lawsuit, the smoothie shop may offer to settle out of court. Just because a lawsuit gets filed, that doesn't mean it ever goes to court. A lot of times, simply filing a lawsuit is enough to scare whoever you're suing into giving you what you want.
@@snowyvul Places like that do not guarantee their products are safe for people with severe allergies, because no matter how careful they are, the risk always exists. Anyone with a severe allergy knows not to buy anything from a facility that handles their allergens. If you buy packaged items from grocery stores, they will say if they've been manufactured in a facility that handle certain allergens. They do not guarantee they are safe for people with severe allergies. The customer is responsible for choosing products they are not allergic to. The father knew about the allergy, bought a smoothie from a place that uses the allergen, and didn't inform the staff about the allergy. Even if the staff had known, and used a separate blender, a risk for cross contamination would have still existed. All the ingredients, and measuring cups for them, could have come in contact with the allergen. I have relatives with severe peanut allergies. They do not dare to consume anything that has come from a place that uses peanuts, even if the item they'd want shouldn't have any. They always ask if the place uses peanuts or peanut products in any of their products. If the place does, then they go somewhere else. The smoothie place is not at fault. The father knew about the allergy, and he knew the smoothie place used the allergen.
@@RaizerZ I hate to be that person but that’s a personal problem. You are in control of your emotions Edit: I like that people are completely ignoring the fact that none of these girls were even responsible, the person who made the smoothie wasn’t even there.

If this were the case then emotional abuse wouldn't be a term because 'you are in control of your emotions'. Just don't feel bad lol?
He probably would’ve won in court or made a good negotiation in his favor if he would’ve just used his brain. I feel bad for who ever has to deal with this dude.
It may have been complicated by the fact that he apparently ordered a PEANUT SMOOTHIE for his severely allergic son (who is like 17, which surprised me personally) asking for no peanuts ???
Generally places don't have to cater to any allergies. Legally they aren't in the wrong unless he said there was an allergy involved. Which he clearly didn't. But yeah, no restaurant has to cater to any allergy at all, legally
My daughter has peanut allergies. Having said that, the father definitely should have been with his son instead of losing it. He should have called some people to see what he can do.
I think they mean lawyers lmao. That being said, I'm not sure any of this would've happened if it weren't for the wildly insensitive/ somewhat aggressive retort from one of the workers. Clearly wasn't going to help the situation and it's not like your kid almost losing their life is a poor reason to be angry. I mean FFS what other reason is there to ask for no peanuts in a smoothie which has no damned peanuts!? This whole situation fuckin sucks.
@@paulwilliams667 how was what she said insensitive? She literally just told him to leave, he was the one calling her racial slurs. It’s not her responsibility to know that this random guys son has a peanut allergy

Hire street thugs to beat the unruly, makes arbitrary rules to keep the cattle in line, point the finger at anyone who can't afford to keep up.
Parents are crazy man, it's a way of trying to regain control over his sons life in where he thought he lost control, I mean he trusted a smoothie place and they let him down
Do not assume that food employees at a chain restaurant or chain smoothie place or w/e think you have a nut allergy when you say no peanuts. They are more than likely 18-20 year olds at their first job. I'm not saying it's not their fault bc they're new to working, but to have as little problems as possible always say it's for an allergy if you have an allergy. The father definitely should have pursued this legally. He would have had a much better time.
"... can't control yourself when your son's in the hospital." He controlled himself well enough to leave the hospital and drive back to the smoothie place, and even to remember to take the smoothie in with him.

All of you guys are psychopaths. All 3 of you. Do you guys even know what emotions are? I'd sit here and explain what being human is to you, but explaining empathy to blue check lizardpeople is just a waste of time
WHAT THE FK DID HE SAY THAT WAS RACIST? I heard the rude bch call him racist, i didnt hear him say anything racist. Maybe I missed it. what did he say?
As a person who is DEATHLY allergic to peanuts, I can totally understand why the dude was angry. But, come on man, why does racism have to be involved? Also, assualting people who weren't even involved with what happened is stupid No I'm not siding with him. I shouldn't have to even explain this 😂
Also if you know that peanuts are used in their machines/food....WHY ARE YOU STILL ORDERING IT. workers can't promise equipment and things aren't contaminated even if they try their best.
they probably just lied to cover their ass. i 100% bet they made the smoothie. the racism isn't real racism. this man probably holds no hate in his heart. I've heard people say slurs in anger my whole life and very few times has it been anything but people saying stuff with the intent to make the other person feel as bad as they do in that moment.
"If he was that emotional about his son, then he would be there with him at the hospital" I'm imagining him cradling his son in his arms, angrily looking up and walking out of the room to destroy a smoothie shop, exactly like how Uncle Ben's death played played out in the first Spiderman movie lol
The fact he had such a good paying job as a wealth advisor and his professionalism went out the window costing him everything. He could of won that case if he wasn't stupid. I would be embarrassed if I was his son. I feel sorry for his son
As if a bunch of ghetto tik tok teens could stand up for themselves in a real situation. They're just underpaid dumbasses that made a real really bad mistake
@@floatinggoose9197 Ive honestly tried to make my own smoothies and juice t home and I was BAFFLED by the amount of ingredient you need in there to actually have a decent sized one. Especially celery juice.. 1 glass requires like 8$ of celeries legit XD... the whole table is filled with celery only for a fuckin glass
@@alexiarv9932 as other comments pointed out... the girls could probably be covering each other because he probably said that his son ended in the hospital at the start of the Blind rage... and the situation escalated worse by yelling and acting like an asshole.
@@casusbelli9225 There is no evidence that proves one of them did it, or that they are somehow covering it, they could be a totally different shift. Even if one of them is responsible it could still have been done by accident. What is wrong in this video is the guy's reaction.
You had me at 'Smoothie' . Revenge always seems to be- best served to those. - who had Zero to do with the original problem. Especially great when it involves Violence. Nice work Nit- Wit.
My brother has severe nut allergies. My mom always SUPER stressed that he had a severe allergy everywhere cuz that’s the smart thing to do. If this had still happened to my brother, my parents would have been BEYOND upset but neither one of them would have suddenly become racist (or gone violent).
The thing is; nut allergies are very severe most of the time, so sometimes there doesn't even have to be real nuts in something, but just made in the same room or on the same counter, meaning even trace amounts are enough to trigger a severe reaction. And as Charlie mentioned, if you say that it's because of an allergy and not just because of personal preference, some places have extra blenders, knives or even whole counters that are specially treated to close out any possibility of trace amounts.
no customers shouldn't have to specify why they don't want something. they should take those precautions anyway. Also every order should start with that question anyway. especially when someone asks not to have something in the smoothie. Customer Service is their job not the customers.
The funny thing is he has every right to be upset about the allergy thing its no minor matter because people can die from those kinda allergies. However he was completely in the wrong for going this route and ruined his life for a situation he could have stayed in the right by suing the smoothie place. Now he ruined that chance and ruined his own life. So dumb
I don't think he does have a right to be upset. He said no peanut butter, he didn't mention an allergy. They even had a sign mentioning the potential allergens at the cash. Not including an ingredient because of a taste preference and dealing with a peanut allergy are two very different things within the food preparation industry and they are handled in very different ways. He endangered his child and then abandoned his sick child to go yell at more children because of his own mistake.
I genuinely think emotional management should be a skill that isn't only taught in like, family therapy. Your emotions are always allowed, but the actions you take as a result are always your responsibility. It takes practice to be controlled enough to stop yourself before impulsive, angry actions, so better practice on inconsequential things before you end up ruining your life.
Sad story guys😢, On 14 January, 2022 My son Timothy Fernandus dissapeared. He left a note saying that he was being constantly bullied by Beluga fans all over the world. He was mentally harmed and harrassed to the point where he likely did something bad. I am not an emotional guy but this truly enrages me that how far is Beluga willing to go the sake of views.
i've worked at these places. getting barely any training, barely any help, tons of customers on top of each other, faulty equipment. at my place we only had one machine for the shakes. trying to clean it of peanut butter or other common allergens (strawberries is one i learned on the job a lot of people have) between shakes was awful and customers get snappy at you for taking so long. my place didn't even teach about allergens period. i learned that from customers who were kind enough and smart enough to inform me why they were saying "no x please". not excusing the employee btw or even saying they're not sharing the blame here, just saying this is a top down problem and i can easily imagine an understaffed, undertrained, unequiped and overworked place like this missing that stuff. it's awful and i really wish these stores cared at all about these things because people's lives can be in danger because of it.
Yeah, I feel like that's a part of the context that's heavily missing, what was the shops situation like at the time of the guy originally getting that smoothie, was in during a rush, or empty, just a few peeps, only one person working, etc etc
@@HyenaBlank See to the mass majority it seems, none of that matters because, he’s white and threw a smoothie at a black female teenager. Everything else goes out the window. And on top of that, people seem to believe all situations they see on the internet, start at the beginning of whatever random clip they saw. And if it didn’t happen in a video, it didn’t happen.
@@PSWii360onBaSS i don't think that's entirely true. He attempted to assault them tried to use physical force to stop them from calling the cops and recording the incident. Such behavior is not acceptable even if he weren't racist. The fact that he was making racist comments just adds to tge list of unacceptable behavior.
@Jamel Frazier so when they said they were calling the cops and then he freaked out, started screaming for them to give him the phone, after he'd already threatened and physically intimidated them, you're ok with that? Because that's not just irrational, it's heading into premeditation territory. Love the way you zeroed in on the race, too, BTW. That's the part that doesn't matter to the mass majority, believe it or not. Addendum: nobody thinks that about videos on the internet. We've all seen a few videos before, and are well aware of this, and the only part of the story in dispute is about whether he mentioned allergies or not. So then what exactly else would you like to see filmed for your vital edification in order to concede that this guy's behaviour was unacceptable?
@@PSWii360onBaSS I mean he was arrested for assaulting these girls it's not just the court of public opinion getting in a tizzy over his racism. He tried to attack teenagers, dude deserves to be in prison.
You gave a perfect explanation, it’s completely justified for him to be angry and id expect that he would be pissed and very emotional but he acted impulsively and keep in mind this guy is rich, does he have no self control? He could easily win in a court battle because the smoothie place is at fault obviously but instead he barges in there and decides to lose his job.
How is the smoothie place at fault when he bypassed the necessary information, ie. that the request was allergen based? Have you never worked at any sort of food or drink establishment? EVERYTHING is cross contaminated. Choosing to feed his son something from a place that he KNOWS serves the object of his son's allergy is just so unbelievably careless. It's his own damn job to provide safe foods for his son, and he dropped the ball ten times over
He wouldn't win a lawsuit against the smoothie place. He didn't specify allergy and it's not possible for them to 100% guarantee that there isn't cross contamination. Considering the money he makes, he should have just bought an expensive smoothie machine and made them at home.
@@lindsfreey9080 I actually did work at a place that served milkshakes which are similiar to smoothies and we cleaned and sanitized the blenders after every use because of the peanut butter. I don’t know how they did things here but you should be able to buy something from a place that also uses peanut butter and not have to worry about it having peanut butter in it. If they properly cleaned maybe they wouldn’t have to deal with cross contamination, also maybe it wasn’t cross contamination at all and maybe the orders were switched up and a employee accidentally put peanut butter into the smoothie.
@@bigtv3428 doesn't change the fact that the guy had about the best reason you can have for being an idiot. Obviously he did the wrong thing, but psychologically it makes sense.
"He shouldn’t be some kind of troglodyte homunculus who thinks that the only solution here is to goofily march into the smoothie place, fee-fi-fo-fumming, ready to fight some high school girls." Fucking so well put
@Nonaya Bidness im failing to see why that matters? the younger you are, the less you have experience, typically means you dont know shit. im surprised you dont have twitter, you sound like you do.
I watched the unedited video, it seems like he did. I mean he was likely already angry when he entered but the beginning seems to show the employees denying knowledge of who made the drink and refusing to help further, maybe out of fear of the charges that could come from a child nearly dying because they weren't paying attention at work. I think it's important to remember the girls could've called their manager or tried to review security footage of who made the drink at any time prior. This would've probably appeased the dude and the employee that should be fired would be fired.
@@mynameskobe6838 Well the employees denying knowledge of who made it makes sense if they really didn't know who made it, but how did they refuse to help further? Didn't they say to call corporate, which is believable since there are workplaces who don't let their employees, especially teens, deal with this type of situation or review the security footage. They really should have called the manager though, but there wasn't much time between the requests and the insults based on the video, I hope the kid is OK and that employee understands that no peanuts means no peanuts though.
I don't think it ever could have ended peacefully regardless. The father was the one who took an unnecessary risk with his son's life in the first place and he was looking for someone to blame because he was angry at himself for nearly killing his son. The employee never told him to give the kid food prepared in a machine that frequently has peanut butter in it, which is something anyone who has a nut allergy is strongly advised to never risk. This is why even products that have no nuts have to say on the label if they are made in a factory that processes nuts. Point being, the father was responsible and couldn't psychologically handle nearly killing his son so he was going to find a target for his anger, one way or another.
@@mynameskobe6838 I don't know if this was the situation, but often at places like this the manager isn't even present. I worked at a smoothie shop and the manager just checked in once in awhile. I opened and closed on my own most of the time. If there was a problem I would have had to tell the customer to contact corporate. Besides all that, in this kind of situation the manager would have said the same. It's a potential law suit, they know better than to try to handle it themselves.
I highly doubt if he mentioned his son's allergy anything like this would happen, more likely he just said "no peanuts" it's probably traces of peanut in the tools from previous orders rather than them straight up ignoring his request. I mean the guy is not even listening to them, he was just vengeful right from the getgo
@@chasejohnston9015 and they didn't put peanuts in his order, it was small traces from the blender and the tools, so if he mentioned the allergy they would have used their sanitized tools and blenders and this wouldn't happen.
Im severely allergic to cheese (closes my throat up). When there's a messup, i just don't go back there and (if it wasn't handled appropriately) leave a bad review. That being said, if you're that sensitive to allergies BE EXPLICIT. And don't fucking john wick the other employees.
"No peanuts" vs "My son has a very life threatening peanut allergy, please take that into account" are two very very different terms. I 100% agree you should always be explicit with allergies.
@@singate Yes and no. The company is responsible for 'erring on the safe side' which they didn't do. Also mentioning medical conditions such as allergies is (indirectly) giving insight into your medical records to non qualified people which at least over here is a big nono. Having said all this I however agree that it is probably safer to explicitly mention an allergy.
@@saybrowt " Also mentioning medical conditions such as allergies is (indirectly) giving insight into your medical records to non qualified people which at least over here is a big nono" That's some next level mental gymnastics.
Nope. All companies are different and I’ve worked at a Steak ‘n Shake where our managers were told to tell people we cannot promise zero cross contamination with the shake ingredients. Managers would tell them to not risk it. Candy pieces fall into each other’s cups and no ones throwing the whole damn thing out cause a Reese’s cup fell into the m&m’s and the pb dust got on a piece of candy. And if you have deathly allergies like that, why even risk it at a restaurant? Just make your shit at home.
This could’ve been an epic story of a guy who sued the smoothie place for endangering his son, but no. He had to lose his shit. He would’ve been in the right if he had just gone the legal route. Oh
to be honest, his actions here and the criminal charges they brought probably have no impact on his own ability to bring a suit vs the company, nor on the outcome of any such suit, its a completely separate matter legally. his big mistake in that respect was throwing the smoothie in question at the girl, because that cup was his physical evidence that the peanuts his son reacted to came in the smoothie. without it, he certainly has a weaker case.
@KingKRool0822 his anger. And he is not required to state such, they are required to assume it. And they were the ones that served him. One of the bitches lied about him ordering a peanut butter smoothie.
I'm in shock and awe as a young woman at the employees and how ready that one girl was to yell back at an angry middle-aged man. Granted, the yelling only made it worse, but any other girl would be terrified. I'm almost upset with the other girls for not pulling her back for safety reasons. He could've had a weapon.
My thoughts too. I also think his reaction was based in guilt for not caring enough that he made his son’s allergy known when ordering his drink. That kind of laps in judgment make one wonder just how good of a parent he is. No parent of a child with allergies would not make sure that that fact went unknown. I had someone come in the other day who made sure that we knew she couldn’t eat gluten, that she was a Coeliac and that she would get extremely sick if even the smallest amount of gluten was in her food. Because her safety was at stake. Now imagine how careful a person would be if the safety of their child was at stake.
@@StixFerryMan I hate people like that. "I have this severe illness that could kill me. I see you are in a rush with a line out the door but could you go out of your way to cater to my needs. Please make everyone else in line wait extra long while you clean every single piece of equipment so Karen can eat a slice of pizza. Sorry they have an allergy. Not sorry when they make it my problem.
@@codycampbell3562 I mean, if they have a condition that could be dangerous they're 100% in the right to specify it. If the workers can't cater to their needs, all they have to do is communicate that; a simple: "sorry, we're currently very busy and cannot follow all procedures to ensure you're 100% safe" is enough.
@@codycampbell3562 I mean, 'making it your problem' comes with the job. In the food industry allowances have to be made, or at least steps must be taken, to prevent people from ending up in life-or-death situations.
"It's not like he's making peanuts." You deserve another award for that one. I don't even think you meant to DO that one. It just landed here from pun heaven.
As someone with a peanut allergy, I would never even consider getting a smoothie from a place that I KNOW uses peanut butter in their blenders. Only one at fault here is the father for being that dimwitted and uninformed about the severity of his son's allergy.
@@mattymerr701 for shouting racist shit at high school girls? Nah the court will have a field day with this POS, they’re making an example out of him 👍
Bro had he controlled his temper and sued, he probably would’ve won this whole thing. But mans took two steps back and decided to turn around entirely.
@kiwi did you not hear the part where he’s a top 25 wealth advisor in his state? He’s got the fucking money. Instead, he went batshit like a fucking moron and wound up in jail over it. There are so many other ways to approach this where he doesn’t ultimately end up being the biggest jackass.
i would've firebombed the place. You dont threaten peoples offspring over simple mistakes. People forget we are hardwired to reproduce and protect, while you're right, he didnt do any physical harm to the people that caused it. That should be enough to forgive him lol
Kenny Kelly exactly he just has to wait a while when people move on and he’ll get a good job. The father is wrong 😑 and I truly believe he will not face consequences after a while except immediate embarrassment
He took his anger out on the wrong people. He should've stayed at the hospital and sue the place. Matter fact, he should've pointed out that his son has a food allergy. A peanut allergy. That's his fault too.
Bro had millions of dollars of basically guaranteed money waiting for him in court settlements and instead of having a lawyer handle it, he did the absolute worst possible thing.
Nobody makes rational decisions when they're THIS emotional over seeing their own son nearly DIE because of some fucking moron's negligence. Between the father and the Smoothie place, the Smoothie place is far more in the wrong imo
@@filyr4684 Except he assaulted people who literally had nothing to do with the situation. Did you even pay attention to the video??? The person who made the smoothie at the time wasn’t even working anymore. He should’ve contacted corporate like an adult instead of being a racist man child. If he really wanted to hurt someone, getting them yelled at and fired by there job/ suing would’ve done a lot more. He’s literally a moron.
