'Mayhem At Lake George' Event In Florida Is True To Its Name As Brawl Breaks Out In Wild Video

'Mayhem At Lake George' Event In Florida Is True To Its Name As Brawl Breaks Out In Wild Video

Florida has, once again, Florida'd the Flori-duh.

A massive fight broke out at the 'Mayhem at Lake George' event—proving itself to be the most perfectly named event ever.


Ideally, the event is supposed to be a demonstration of Florida awesomeness. Year-round boat parties in warm, shallow, safe water are undeniably dope.

"Ideally" is one of those words that you hear at the beginning of a story and you just know that whatever happens after "ideally" will absolutely NOT the ideal.

This is no different.

That ideal of an awesome boat party gave way to the reality of ... well ... mayhem. The event turned into an all out aquabrawl that resulted in multiple arrests, a few dozen boating violations, and at least one person who needed to be taken by boat back to land so he could be airlifted to the hospital.

Some of that brawl was caught on video by a Sheriff's chopper.


The clip starts as high aerial footage circling the lake, filled with boats, people, and floating platforms. The camera shifts once or twice before settling on the stage where the show is very already in progress; someone gets flipped over another person and thrown into the water.

That happens about 16 seconds into the nearly-three-minute video.

The pandemonium just keeps going from there.

According to Volusia County Sherrif, Mike Chitwood, the pandemonium and unique location meant it took longer than usual to get medical help to one seriously injured man. He had to be transported by boat back to the shore, and then the chopper had to figure out how to land in a sea of people-punching-people.

He explained:

“It took a while to get the medical attention to him. It took a while to get him to a landing zone where air one had to improvise to land which was a feat in itself. They landed on basically a postage stamp.”


Social media had so much to say about this - because obviously.






No updates currently available for the man who was hospitalized after the brawl.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
