In the footage, the man sloppily saunters over to the much-larger bouncer.

He reaches out and grabs his chest, causing onlookers to gasp at his sheer audacity.

As the man continues to talk, the blank-faced bouncer appears to reason with him.

However, this does not work and the man - likely under the influence of alcohol - shuts his eyes and starts dancing.

He slowly moves closer to the bouncer who - clearly reaching the end of his tether - grabs the man by the neck and shoves him back.

The man's body arches away from him as he is propelled towards the ground.

Clearly not getting the message, the man hops right back up and walks towards the bouncer, pointing his finger at him.

Suddenly, the bouncer reaches out and slaps the man across the face.

The sound echoes down the street as the man falls to the floor again, this time landing on his side over a grate.

He lies on the ground with his head moving back and forth slightly.

The video was shared to Facebook where viewers were quick to share their views.

Stephen Dinsdale slammed the man for being 'disrespectful' while Clare Marshall conceded that he was a 'drunken pain' but said the bouncer acted rashly, The Sun reports.

Jimmy Muitt said: 'I think he deserved it, personally, the bouncer put him back in his place.'
