Just when you thought this viral recording saga couldn’t get any wilder… it did.
In a brand-new clip setting social media on fire, the same man who tried to snatch a teen’s camera (and got pepper sprayed by the kid’s dad) finds himself on the receiving end of another reality check — this time from law enforcement.
The footage shows police stopping him near the scene, calmly asking for his side of the story.
But instead of answering like a rational adult, he goes into full meltdown mode.
He throws his arms in the air, paces in circles, and starts shouting, “Why are you even talking to me?! I didn’t do anything!” — all while a camera is, of course, filming everything.
Then it gets worse.
He begins invading the officers’ personal space, stepping inches from their faces in what can only be described as a grown-man tantrum.
“Back up,” one officer says firmly. “You’re way too close.”
But the man just keeps yelling, ranting about “rights,” “harassment,” and “entrapment,” despite being the one who approached a teen and grabbed his camera hours earlier.
Viewers are calling it “the most embarrassing self-own of 2025.”
“He’s acting like a toddler who missed nap time,” one comment reads. Another user wrote, “He really went from citizen’s arrest energy to full Karen in 0.2 seconds.”
Even funnier? A bystander in the background can be heard muttering, “Bro, you’re not in a courtroom — you’re on TikTok.”
The video ends with the officers giving him a final warning and walking away — refusing to escalate the situation but clearly done with his antics.
And the internet? Oh, it’s eating it up.
#Mantrum is trending, and the top remix so far features his tantrum set to a Cocomelon soundtrack.
The lesson here? When you go looking for clout, the camera always looks back.
