  A knockout in a street fight ninety five percent of the time just means they hit the vagus nerve in your jaw. I never got KO’d but I caught a standing eight-count from a quitter I just barely slipped. You don’t go to sleep, your body just stops responding to your commands.
context: Don’t care in a movie. It’s as fake as everything else on screen. 
  In real life, I’m not sure what situation you’re in that this is regularly happening? Maybe find a new social circle with less fighting?
  If you’re a professional boxer or football player, this is an occupational hazard and you’re ideally compensated as such. >
  
  There are many many videos on reddit subs where a fight or punch happens irl and almost every comment is "brah got shown" or "fuck around find out". Then a slew of hive mind glee ensues. If one person says its wrong they get jumped on. Watched a video of a kid calling his teacher names and getting dragged out his seat and hauled through a door and slammed violently. A young teen and a man. Was vile. Every comment applauded the teacher. Shits abhorrent. >
  
  Well Reddit has a lot of pretty horrific people, check the hermain Cain award sub, worst people around. >
  
  Jesus don't I know. Think I'll pass lol I get angry at the bs on certain subs >
  
  Well, as for movies, allow me to introduce you to a marvelous concept known as “special effects.”
  As for real life, how often are you watching people get smacked upside the head for comedic purposes? >
  
  My point with movies was more that it creates the misconception that people can get knocked out for a few hours and they’ll be fine when they wake up. Hence why a lot of people don’t realize how serious it can be losing consciousness for even a few seconds >
  
  I’m pretty sure 99% of people in real life know the dangers of being knocked out. Reddit isn’t exactly the place to get the most informed opinions from well adjusted smart people. >
  
  I agree. It’s really bad for you. >
  
  It's like super bad for you >
  
  It is when they deserve it >
  
  Unless they pose a serious danger to those around them, I don’t think most people deserve brain damage >
  
  This >

  Getting knocked to the ground is one thing, but when someone is hit so hard that it knocks them unconscious i don't find it funny, i witnessed it happen several times in my teens and 20's, and at no point was it funny, most folks think its just like a short nap, but if you actually take 5 mins to read what happens when you're knocked out, you won't find it as funny anymore.
