Although I understand that not everyone reads the Funny Pic thread, there is an on going discussion there about the video as well.

I hate to do it, because this is a cute story, but I have to take issue with the title of this thread.
This video is just one instance of bullying a fat kid going wrong. Chances are very high that bullying an overweight child will not go so poorly for the bully. So to call the thread "Don't bully fat kids" is, I think, disingenuous at best and downright misleading at worst.
You should rename it "Don't bully this fat kid", as that would be much more accurate.
The more rotund among us will always be the easier target and while this bodyslam should probably give bullies a reason for pause before they pick on a larger child, it can not and should not inviolate the behaviour completely.

I disagree. You ever had to fight an angry, zombie-rangin' fat kid?
generally speaking....a lot of fat kids also have a lot more muscle, and thus, would be less fun in a fight.
Im just saying, but if 2 bears were swinging their claws (at the exact same time) at me from 3 ft away from me and one is 80lbs heavier than the other, i would most definitely attempt to dodge the over-weight bear's swing more. Ok, bad analogy....i couldn't think of anything.
