A viral video has captured the moment a bloke was walloped over the head with a crutch during a wild brawl outside of a pub.
The shocking video, which has begun circulating online, shows a man, wearing a green top and black joggers, trading blows with another clad in a black jacket and grey bottoms.
The second man tries to land a headbutt but misses and they continue to exchange punches – but both of the seemingly intoxicated men failed to make impact.

A man in a black coat was then seen stumbling to the ground as his opponent continued to whack him outside The Raby pub, Shields Road, in Byker, Newcastle – home of the famed British teen drama Byker Grove.
An older bystander suddenly tries to intervene and wrestle the man in the green top off the other lad whose jacket was discarded.
The ugly clash carried on for over a minute with stunned witnesses – including children and a woman holding onto crutch – watching on in horror.
But it finally came to an end after the older man walloped the man in green over the back of the head with a crutch, making him unsteady on his feet as he almost instantly tumbled to the ground.
The clip has since gained more than 2.2million views on X – the app formerly known as Twitter – with viewers taking to the comments calling the incident "funny."
One local joked: “Imagine going into the hospital the next day, ‘I need a new crutch’. ‘What happened to the one I gave you?’ ‘Well eh, funny story actually’.”
Another said: “There’s a lot going on in this one.”
A third quipped: “Began right under the 'live entertainment' sign.”
A fourth joked: “Are they fighting in slow motion?”
“So drunk it was in slow-mo," a fifth added.
The Raby Pub, Northumbria Police and the North East Ambulance Service has been contacted for a comment regarding the incident.

It is not known if the duo were drinking at The Raby, but the boozer previously had a bad reputation of being where many 'feared to be inside', reported ChronicleLive.
A decade ago it was raided, with a stash of bogus booze and knock-off cigarettes seized.
When a new landlady then came in and barred the troublemakers, she was attacked by two women.
