Most people you run into on an ordinary day are pretty normal, maybe even a little boring. But every once in a while, you cross paths with someone whose behavior is so out there that you cannot help but stop and stare. And even then, there are levels from people rambling about bizarre conspiracy theories to those who seem physically unhinged in public spaces. In this case, the internet got a front-row seat to someone on the extreme end of that spectrum inside a Pizza Hut in New Jersey.
The video begins with a man climbing onto a low-hanging lamp behind the restaurant counter. Somehow, he manages to grab the fixture and start swinging from side to side like he is reenacting a chaotic circus act. It does not last long. His weight pulls the lamp downward until it snaps off completely. Instead of stopping there, the man launches himself onto the counter, thrashing around wildly and knocking items onto the floor.
The chaos keeps escalating. After flailing across the counter, he eventually flops his entire body over it and tumbles to the other side like a ragdoll. The people standing outside the Pizza Hut stare through the windows with wide eyes, unsure whether to intervene, call for help, or simply keep watching. The person filming even mutters that someone should probably call the New Jersey police, though no one seems eager to be the first to step forward.
Then, in the middle of all that frantic movement, the man suddenly stops. Completely. He goes still on the floor behind the counter, lying there stiffly like a broken doll abandoned on the Pizza Hut tiles. It is so abrupt that even the viewers online were thrown off.
When the video spread across social media, reactions ranged from confusion to dark humor. Many people said they genuinely had no idea why the New Jersey man was behaving this way. Some suspected drugs, though others pushed back, saying that even the harder substances they had tried never caused anything close to this level of erratic movement. One commenter wrote, “I see these videos and always wonder what kind of drug makes you do something like this. I have tried just about everything and never seen anything like this.”
Others guessed it might be flakka, the infamous synthetic drug known for making people behave like zombies. The man’s jerky, uncontrolled movements made the speculation feel almost reasonable.
Of course, not everyone took the situation seriously. “No one out pizzas the hut,” one user joked. Another wondered what the man must have been experiencing in his head: “I would love to know what these guys feel like when they are tripping this hard. It does not look pleasant.”
One commenter even jumped past drugs entirely and suggested supernatural causes, writing, “Everyone assumes drugs, but that looks like some possession stuff to me.” Most people simply laughed at the absurdity, treating the man’s frantic performance inside the Pizza Hut as one of those strange, unbelievable internet moments that you cannot explain and will probably never forget.
