Bumfights: Cause for Concern
Himself
"Guaranteed to be the most hilariously shocking video you've ever seen, Bumfights will piss on any other ruckus video ever made. You'll see drunk bums beating each other silly, real street fights caught on tape, sick pranks, chick fights, crackheads, bum stunts, supermodel Angela Taylor and hands down the rawest, most core ruckus ever filmed. On behalf of Indecline and the Bumfight Krew... we apologize. Because love us or hate us, these images will stay with you for life."
