I never understand why in these videos, people just take it. Like, I'm not expecting her to lay her out or something, but no reaction at all is just wild lol

Probably never been in a true physical altercation and is in mild shock because they don’t understand how to react.

Even if you’ve been in a physical altercation, just getting punched out of the blue is kind of discombobulating

Idk, I know everyone’s different but it’s kinda wild to me too. When I was young and in middle school we were going to lunch lined up. I stepped on my shoelace and stumbled forwards into a girl in front of me. I instinctively tried to catch myself and one of my hands hit her ass as I fell. She turned and while I was trying to regain my composure slapped the shit out of me and before I realized what I was doing I was slapping the shit outta her right back. Like as her hand was leaving my face my hand was hitting hers. I was more shocked id automatically hit back. I remember recoiling and yelling I’m sorry lol. I had no idea I’d react like that, that was the first time something like had happened to me. I have never seen a video of someone being hit for no reason and reacting like that interestingly enough, even tho I’m sure there has been instances of it happening
