What Causes Pub Fights and One Punch Attacks?

'Oi! Are you looking at my Mrs?' 'Did you spill my pint? 'Outside now!'We've all been there. A pub on a Friday night, booze flowing, beers getting spilled, people getting lairy. Then, everyone gets turned out onto the street at the same time. Bodies get shoved, you take a comment the wrong way and before you know it, you have an stumbly opponent rolling up their sleeves. It can be scary and dangerous... but for some reason we accept that pub fights are just a side affect of drinking. Today Vic and Hamish dig into drunk fighting, why did it start? Why do people do it? Whats happening in the brain? Why do we have a tendency to be more aggressive when under the influence? As you may have guessed, these guys are lovers not fighters but even so, haven't managed to completely avoid the odd fisty pavement scuffle. Hamish even once politely stopped a fight whilst wearing a polo shirt. They also find out about king hits, one punch attacks that lead to the deaths of many young people in Australia.
