Every once in a while, we see something that gives us a sense of how different each person’s experiences in life are. While some of us wish we could return to our carefree childhoods, others would give anything to not relive what they experienced back then.
Unfortunately, this sad disparity in experiences can happen anywhere, even in a location famous for being the happiest place on earth.
**Be advised that the video is graphic in nature and contains strong language.**
Although many of us made memories at Disneyland or Disney World that we’ll always remember fondly, any child that saw the events in the full video unfold would probably prefer to forget them.
On Saturday, a family broke out into an argument at Mickey’s Toontown in the Disneyland location at Anaheim, California.
It’s unclear what exactly the man in the red shirt and the woman in white were arguing about, but it was apparently heated enough that she spit in his face.
The man in red reacts violently to this and hits her, which leads the man in white to retaliate.
The woman wheels the crying child in the stroller away from the impending fight as the two men trade blows.
However, it isn’t long before other members of their group become aware of the scuffle.
Unfortunately, their presence only seems to make those involved more angry as the man in white strikes the woman in the tan top.
The escalating brawl then pushes towards the woman in the motorized scooter, who is apparently the man in red’s mother.

About 30 seconds into the fight, two passers-by walk into the fray and attempt to break the fight up.
At first, they seem to be successful and family appears to calm down as the man in red’s mother gets out of her scooter.
However, this peace is short-lived as the man in red starts pulling the woman in white’s hair.
Again, the two passers-by try to keep them separated.
It seems like the family is getting ready to leave as the man in white retrieves the stroller, but the fight starts anew as the woman in white attacks the woman with the tan top.
It’s at this point that someone in the crowd finally suggests calling park security.
The force of their altercation has even caused the man in red’s mother to fall to the ground.
After the woman with the tan top and a passer-by help her up, the man in red returns.
Seeming to realize that his mother was injured, he attacks the woman in white until she falls over as well.
As another woman holds his mother in a supportive hug, he paces around telling everyone else that he’s “ready to go to jail tonight.”
The woman holding his mother seems to be under the impression that the woman in the tan top hit his mother.
He then punches her in the face twice before dragging her to the ground by her hair and repeatedly hitting her.
This is the moment when the crowd seemed to agree that the conflict had gone too far and three men pull the man in red off of her.
They then restrain him as one man kneels behind him and puts him in a chokehold.
About three minutes into this situation, park security arrives and the fight is officially over.
According to The LA Times , Anaheim police were called and the family was ejected from the park.
Although Sergeant Daron Wyatt described the family as “uncooperative,” no arrests were made because authorities were not aware of the extent of the carnage at the time.
Now that the full video has hit social media, however, they’re planning to revisit this case.
As Wyatt said, “Now that we have the video, detectives will be following up to see if any criminal charges can be filed.”
If you need to see the fight unfold for yourself, it is shown in its entirely in the full video.
