What are some of the worst anger outbreaks you've seen?

[DustinZ]

I think we all know it's pretty hard to keep our temper in those crucial points and sometimes we all have let out a little steam!

Whats the worst thing you've seen in your experience or on youtube?

well I've seen a guy lose a match and snap his bat, lose the next match and snap his spare bat and then lose a match the next day and snap his team mate's bat which he was borrowing angry much? I think so.

I see a lot of players letting out their steam in TT and tennis, but I dont see any in badminton and squash. In the 1st video, freeze the frame at 42sec, and you can see the guy's face saying "OH ****E!!".... there's one for the album.

haha ^^
well, during a tournament in the quarterfinal, I was playing against a huge guy ^^
I was loosing 2-0 and 8-4. I took a time-out and I layed down on the floor and closed my eyes like I was on holiday.
After that, I won 3-2. The guy was furious, damn! He took his rackett and threw it on my direction against the wall, he threw all his thing through the place we were playing.
The best thing is: We were playing in a corner of the hall and at this time, everything was quiet, except that guy there and everyone looked at our table xD

One guy in my team has lots of angry reactions, he broke his bat, the handle from the other part He also hit that bat against his face and after that he had a huge red spot on his forehead HAHA!

Also lots of swearing, cursing, ugly words...

I'm believe there are so many anger control issue among TT players due to that the penalty is not so strict compare to the other sports. Like in the first video, the player should has disqualified straight away instead of only a yellow card.

None I've seen in real life..
Many I've seen in internet

A friend of mine threw this racket right across five(!) tables while people were playing on them to eventually smashing into the wall into two pieces.
He got thrown out of the tournament for that. (as he should be! )

I know Michael Maze has a bit of a temper and have seen on YouTube a video where he just straight up kicks then towel holders next the the ump. TT is an intense game let me tell you. haha

@TTOski: are you sponsered or something like that? ^^ Instead of breaking your rackets, send them to me ;D

 

[Michal_Z]

So.. can anyone beat this rage??

 

[Rhydian]

Damn :O And his racket didn't break? Wow ^^
Well the guy I mentionned before, he smashed his racket the same way, but against the wall behind me ^^

There was this 16year old kid playing in the semi finals at the nationals. He got through all the earlier rounds relatively easy. And in the semis he met his nemesis (a 20yr old national player then), and probably he put too much pressure on himself that day, everything that he did, did not come out right, Playing the 6th set, which he needed to win, he missed a relatively easy smash, setting a match point to the opponent. So he threw his racket to the ground, put his foot on the rubber side, and a hand on the handle and broke the bat in half!!(in addition to all the other things he did/said during the match). He got disqualified.

Now, he's watching the 2011 wimbledon tennis championship on the telly, and spending his spare time writing his 2cents on this forum. In case you guys are wondering..,it was me 26 years ago.....sigh

[Michal_Z]

Well.. I dont have video footage, but.. I saw once situation, when player got that mad, he threw his racket through whole gym, it flew into top corner, fell down and got broke..
The guy then got better, smiled .. and said, that he wanted a new one anyways..

 

[Rhydian]
