Let's hope his ankle was nicely and permanently damaged...

Seems a little cruel since we don't actually know the circumstance.
Still the gap left between those gravel boards did not really look big enough for an ankle of conventional dimensions!

I'm not quite sure what legitimate circumstances there could be where a group of youths need to break through / up a concrete paneled fence (that had presumably replaced the wooden one for similar reasons) by throwing rocks at it and kicking it whilst filming it on a mobile phone! ;-)
Maybe this was their unofficial rear entrance to a park and they didn't want to have to walk all the way round to the main entrance to do drugs and shank strangers?
It doesn't does it!
I showed the missus the clip and she thought it must be a setup as if the kid had been injured "they wouldn't put it on the Internet would they"? (bless her). ;-)
All the best ..

Me too, seen it a few weeks ago when someone linked to it in uk.rec.cars.maintenance (or was it uk.legal ?) - it's even got its' own link to the exact spot on Google Earth - somewhere in Essex IIRC...

Well, there could be. If you need something smashing up then a collection of teenagers is a fine way to get it done - win-win for both sides. As for filming it - well, we did here:

agree though that your implied explanation is more likely :-)

Great - but I wonder who they sued for injuries. A lawyer somewhere would have taken on the case.

We were involved in summat similar (officially), we just threw lead at it at ~1000 fps ... ;-)
Darwin rules ok! ;-)

Well, there is that these days. :-(
I think we should fire all the lawyers into space (HHG stylee) and take the safety labels off everything. ;-)

Apparently in our borough an ASBO is a valid proof of identity if you're applying for a library ticket

That should be a fairly safe bet for library staff

Probably an acceptable qualification for university entry, these days.
