Description: Made my first friend in Philadelphia! As soon as Chris and I started out in search of a shuttle that would get us downtown, we came across a taxi outside the airport and we asked the young middle eastern driver for directions. Well in Philly a lot of people seem to flip when you ask them for directions and he was aggressively pointing and saying it was somewhere else but it was hard to make out what he was saying but it was in a angry, frustrated tone. I said "ok thank you. happy new year." He said "merry x mas" back and then asked if I was being a smart ass and started going into gansta mode like "you got a problem" style. He started babbling all this angry stuff and I pulled out my camera and started filming him. He got out of his car and started yelling that I couldnt film or something and slapped the camera out of my hand. It went well with the thick scar down the side of his face. Scarface jumped back in his taxi after I dropped my backpack and laptop case and kind of rushed in his direction. He ran so fast back in that car and started fumbling around in the car like he was gonna pull out a gun. Then all these other middle eastern taxi drivers got out of there car to come to their "hommies" aid yelling at me and shit about no filming. lol. He continues to yell while I try and talk reasonably to the fatter taxi driver that was getting in on the mix. Eventually airport police came after like 3 minutes in which he is screaming at the cop. Long story short we found our shuttle... This video briefly features the dialogue that happened when the cop got there...sorry for poor quality. Chris didn't know it was on.
