Here’s a play-by-play of what happened in the absurd, ridiculous fight at Temasek Polytechnic

Yesterday, a class at Temasek Polytechnic got completely derailed by a blond, funnily-dressed young student. Footage recently emerged of a young man making a fool of himself by being a noisy nuisance in the middle of a lesson in a lecture hall filled with thoroughly bemused students.

Behold the dude that netizens have dubbed “Bumblebee” shouting and yelling across the lecture hall while vigorously doing squats. His impassioned run could not be quelled by the lecturer and other adult facilitators, while attempts by fellow students to calm him down simply produced more laughs and even further squabbles.

But before we let you waste 18 minutes of your time watching this ridiculous display, here’s some context helpfully provided by a Temasek Polytechnic student on Reddit.
