At the moment I don’t have much more information than you do about this footage (other than its provenance, which is unremarkable). If there is interest I am willing to do a bit of digging to find out more about what was going on here and what the outcome(s) were.
Regardless, a blindingly obvious message highlighted in this video is that it’s a bad idea to taunt the police and/or act violently in plain view of the police. The guy in the yellow t-shirt has the right idea here, but this isn’t rocket science.
About the strange aspect ratio in the second half: This video was edited together from two body-worn camera videos and it was captured early in the rollout of Orlando Police Department’s body-worn camera program. The officer who recorded this footage mistakenly attached his camera sideways, which meant that I had to rotate the video 90 degrees… effectively making each clip into a vertical video. Unacceptable.
So… although the first clip was conducive to strategic cropping, the second was not. What you are seeing in the second half of this video is a balance between “getting as far away from vertical video as possible” and “not cropping out important parts of the footage.”
A NOTE ABOUT COMMENTS: Hostile racist comments will not be tolerated on this channel. I intend to clearly communicate what that means and I am working on a written policy that will be available to everyone. I have no interest in stifling debate and criticism but I will not tolerate deliberate hostile intolerance in my space. Users leaving such comments may be banned without warning. Similarly, comments encouraging violence will be removed without warning. Expect to hear more on this in the near future. Thank you for your cooperation.

Didn’t know Orlando had Mardi Gras. Or is this just a normal night in Orlando? Don’t think I would want to be a police officer in this town.
That guy that was trying to keep his friends out of trouble looked like he was herding cats. Poor guy.

It’s very common for Orlando Police to use bikes if y’all were wondering
1:29 LOL the guys face as he gets off his bike "This dude is giving me no choice here… sigh*…. *kickstand*…..*tackle "
The worst part is, the two idiots just make their ancestors weep. And the man being thrown into the back of the wagon in chains just goes to show his ignorance of his own history. 🤦ðŸ¼â€â™‚ï¸
Looked like a gay porn movie to me.
The director has said 'Take your shirt off, show your panties, act tough….. cue the cops!'
