Tyler Glasnow’s jaw dropped once he saw the viral video in question. “Holy sh*t!” he breathed, eyes glued to the video Chris shared. “That’s the first time I’ve seen that. That dude’s an athlete!”

Chris smirked. “Do we get mad at him because there’s no way this should ever happen in a courthouse in this country, ever?” Tyler Glasnow rubbed his chin thoughtfully. “Violence doesn’t ever, is never the answer,” he finally said. “But if we’re just going strictly, no context athlete, that’s crazy, because those desks are like pretty big!” He paused, a mischievous glint in his eye. “Honestly though?

Chris burst out laughing. As the call ended, the internet buzzed. The clip, dubbed “Tyler Glasnow hadn’t seen the viral judge attack, so we got his reaction in real time” went viral, gaining 51.9 thousand views on Twitter since this morning, sparking debates about courtroom decorum and athletic prowess in unlikely scenarios.
