A TikTok user by the handle @izzybigbelly has gone viral after posting a video showcasing her confronting an older man after she claimed he hit on her then 16-year-old sister in public.
The video she initially posted was set to dramatic music about what she “plays in her head” when she’s going “head to toe with a grown man after he hit on my 17-year-old sister in front of me.”
Since the video went viral, amassing over 4.6 million views, the woman has also posted a second video with the audio of the two fighting, and a follow-up video explaining exactly what happened.
Here’s the first video of @izzybigbelly confronting the man she says hit on her young teenage sister.
Eventually, after Izzy says the man continued to harass their group, she stood up and, in her words, started “popping off.”
Izzy says “nothing really happened” during their argument other than the man repeatedly calling her a “f*ing c**t” and pointing at her sister.
“You can hear me in the video say, ‘she’s 16.'” Danielle adds. “And he continued to argue with me after that.”
Danielle addresses the fact that no men really stand up for her in the video, but notes that she was “not expecting anybody to save me.”
She also explained that the man was eventually kicked out of the establishment, and she has had another young woman reach out to her privately, telling her that she was also harassed by the same man at the restaurant, so this wasn’t his first offense. The man has not been identified, but some eagle-eyed viewers pointed out that it appears the man is wearing a wedding ring in the video.
“Nice wedding ring that pedophile is wearing,” commented a TikTok user.
“People defending this dude (who appears to be married btw, not just old as dirt) need their phones and hard drives checked,” added another commenter.
Izzy ended her video with a plea to others to find the courage to stand up to men who make other people, especially young women, uncomfortable.
“If you see something, say something,” she urged. “If you are uncomfortable, say something. If you think that you should make a scene, make a f**king scene. Defend yourself, defend the people you love. Defend people you don’t know if you’re somebody like me who is not afraid to go 10 toes down, toe to toe with a f**king grown ass man, and you know the repercussions, and you’re still not scared. Stand the f**k up and say something.”
