(SNO) – A dramatic video of a crying woman latching on to a man’s upper lip with her teeth for just over one minute, after which he chokes and bites her, has not only gone viral in Saint Lucia, but has evoked both anger and amusement among the thousands of persons who have viewed it.
Reports are that the incident occurred on Thursday, June 21, 2018 at the Vieux Fort Fishing Complex, commonly known as ‘The Pond’.
The video is so popular that it received almost 1,300 shares within several hours after being posted on the Facebook group, ‘I Tell It Like It Is’.
In the video, which is one minute and 52 seconds long, a man who it is believed recorded the video, is heard laughing constantly. It was not until 40 seconds into the video that he urges the woman to release the man’s upper lip.
“Release, release it,” he said repeatedly.
“Drop it, drop it, drop it, ok drop it,” he said while tapping the woman’s shoulder. However, she refused to let go off the man’s upper lip as she continued to cry.
“Family drop it, drop it cuz, drop it,” the man said.
At 1:23 in the video, the man, whose lip is being held, starts to choke her in an apparent attempt to get her to let him go.
He is able to release himself, however he continues to choke her for a few seconds. He then bit her just above her right breast and on her left hand.
Blood is seen on the woman’s clothing, above the breast area, as well as on the hand he bit her. However, it appears to be his blood, coming from his injured upper lip, according to persons who claimed they were at the scene.
The woman then walks away and the video ends.
It is not clear what prompted the woman to latch on to the man’s lip, however, at the beginning of the video she could be heard mumbling to the effect, “what I do you for you to do me that?”
The comments that followed on the Facebook group gave an idea of the relationship between the two adults.
Some persons allege that the man is known to beat the woman, and she only held on to his lip in self-defense because she is afraid of him, while others took the man’s side, saying she usually physically abuses him.
One person however stated that the two are known to be in frequent fights: “I kno dem 2 alway fighting.”
Here are some of the unedited comments:
“She should bite off his lip and spit it out Salop la .Don’t beat women”
“She’s wicked she’s the one always beating on the man”
“Choops the man was beating the woman that’s why her alligator teeth snatched at his jaw but she didn’t do it right .His Salop lip should be ripped off and spat on the ground en chewy.”
“hear i hear…she used to abuse de man…as de man bite her back she crying like is since teenager the man doing her things…they should bite her in her sleep tonight…”
“He gives her everything she wants and needs and she’s treats him like trash”
Other persons state that the incident is not funny and should bes cause for concern.
The person who recorded the video as well as other persons who were seen doing the same, came under harsh criticism from the bloggers.
“What stupidness is this . Ppl killing each other and and the smart a–holes with they smart phone taking video”
