A fitness TikToker posted a video showing another gym goer confronting him in anger.

In the video shared by Nick Nush (@nicknush0), a man records Nush from across the gym calls Nush multiple names and slurs because Nush is working out shirtless. Nush tries to explain it's because he's recording his back for the workout, but that doesn't satisfy the man.

The video has been viewed millions of times with commenters weighing in.

In the video, Nush is working out on a pull-down machine, when he notices a guy across the way filming him.

The guy asks:

"What are you doing man?"
"Getting a shirtless workout in?"

Nush responds:

"Yeah"

The guy calls him a weirdo and things get worse from there. The guy goes on to call him an ableist slur and a homophobic one, just because Nush was working out shirtless.

Comments on the video quickly sided with Nush.

Nush adds a voiceover explaining he doesn't know this guy and doesn't know why this guy keeps insulting him and flipping him off.

Nush says his own insult, back, which was pretty tame by comparison, and this made the guy angry. He crosses the gym and gets in Nush's face.

He claims before walking off:

"Yeah I'll f*** you up, p****!"

Nush captions the ending of the video "So mad for what?"

Many commenters tried to claim Nush should have physically confronted the guy.

However, Nush didn't see it that way.

The peaceful reaction was probably the better one.

It is unfortunately more common than you might think to have people get aggressive over nothing at the gym. The place can bring out the worst in some people.

Morgan Wallen Called Out For Flipping Piano Over During Tour Concert After Audio Issues

We've all had our moments where we were super frustrated and lashed out inappropriately at an inanimate object, as if that would help the situation or at least make us feel better.

Maybe we drummed our steering wheel a little too hard while in a traffic jam, or we smacked our keyboard or mouse when a webpage wasn't loading fast enough. At least we can say that we didn't flip a whole piano on its head.

Christian Nationalist Podcaster Slammed After Comparing Gay People Having Kids To Slavery In Unhinged Rant

On Thursday, right-wing Christian nationalist podcaster Seth Gruber had big feelings about gay people participating in adoptions or surrogacies or both—he wasn't very clear—so he spewed his thoughts onto Elon Musk's X (formerly Twitter) where bigoted content is routinely supported.

Ironically, Musk himself has used artificial insemination (IVF) and surrogacy for an undisclosed number of his 14 children—it may be most or it may be all—in part so Musk would be able to choose the biological sex of each embryo.

Kathy Hochul Offers Shady Response After Greg Abbott Shares Meme Of Him 'Dunking' On Her Ahead Of Knicks-Spurs NBA Finals

New York Governor Kathy Hochul offered a shady quip about MAGA's stance on transgender athletes after Texas Governor Greg Abbott shared an AI-generated meme showing him dunking a basketball on her as President Donald Trump watches on ahead of the series between the New York Knicks and the San Antonio Spurs in the NBA finals.

The Knicks and the Spurs are set to meet in the NBA finals for the first time since 1999, when San Antonio captured the championship. Game 1 is scheduled for June 3 at the Frost Bank Center in San Antonio, with tipoff set for 8:30 p.m. ET.

MAGA Influencer Ripped For Mind-Numbing Posts Comparing Melania To Michelle Obama—And The Obsession Is Real

MAGA podcaster Brilyn Hollyhand was widely mocked by X users after he shared a clip of First Lady Melania Trump talking about immigration to claim that former First Lady Michelle Obama "wishes" she was as great.

The 19-year-old—who previously served as the co-chair of the Republican National Committee Youth Advisory Council—shared a clip from Mrs. Trump's January 29 appearance on Fox Business' Mornings with Maria in which she claimed that her husband President Donald Trump's immigration crackdown is rooted in his desire for a safe country for all.
