SHOCKING footage captures the moment a man is knocked out after being violently kicked in the face.
The dramatic incident is believed to have taken place in Portsmouth on Friday [14 Aug] and is thought to have left the man hospitalised with a bleed on his brain.
The footage began circulating on social media on Saturday [15 Aug] with reports the victim had since been discharged.
As the clip begins, the two men are seen arguing over who has right of way in the narrow street.
They begin shouting at each other when suddenly one of the men, wearing no shirt, begins to punch and taunt the victim.
The topless man then launches a kick at the other man, who grabs his foot and twists him away.
The shirtless man regains his balance however and draws back to deliver a brutal kick to the man’s face.
The below forces the man backwards and he smashes his head on the ground with a chilling thud.
The topless man then tries to exit the scene but is detained by a woman who he begins tussling with to try and move her out of the way,
As the clip ends, there are calls for the emergency services with one voice bizarrely yelling: “Call 911.”
The violence has shocked many social media users.
