Shocking moment an entitled tourist loses it to Bali locals after they blocked the road for a religious ceremony before being dragged back to his motorbike in a headlock
- A tourist was filmed yelling at Bali locals
An aggressive tourist was filmed yelling at religious security for trying to divert him and his girlfriend off a blocked road in Bali.
Shocking footage shows the tourist and his girlfriend trying to cross the blocked road on a motorbike, even though it was closed for a Melasti ceremony, a Hindu purification ritual, in Labuan Sait, Bali.
Religious security officers told the couple that they had to go the other way, but according to witness accounts, “they started to get angry and yell at the people who were doing the ceremony.”
Footage of the incident shows security pushing the woman, while her boyfriend yells “did you touch my girlfriend?”
The situation continued to escalate as more security approached the couple and told them to go another way.

The tourist continued to ignore security, claiming he had spent “two years in Bali” before suddenly going off again.
He then got off his bike and ran towards one of the security officers further back in the group.
Immediately three men grabbed him and dragged him back to his motorcycle.
The short video has been widely shared on social media, with outraged Bali locals criticizing the tourists as disrespectful and calling for them to be deported.
It was his fault trying to cross during that time! It’s a very important ceremony, and they should have known about it,” said another.
‘Wow, they need to learn to respect the local culture,’ said a second.
‘Two years in Bali, time to go home,’ another person wrote.
‘This was beyond disrespectful!’ a third person said.
“We should deport these people,” said a Bali resident. ‘This is not normal or acceptable.
‘If you go to someone else’s house and you don’t respect this person’s place, he will kick you out of his house. Bali should do the same to all these disrespectful tourists. They do not understand or respect the beauty of this place and religion.
Outraged Bali locals called the man ‘disrespectful’ after he screamed and lunged at security.
