You could've at least also printed the goddamn ads. Some people are so ungrateful.
 
In court where two parents were arguing over their 4-year old daughters custody, since neither of them wanted custody of her. The judge went completely mental at the both of them. I wasn't even near the courtroom, but you could hear him behind closed doors, all the way down the hallway, screaming at them about requiring a licence to fuck and what-have-you.
 
I wasn't there to see it, but last week a guy got a meltdown in the mall our store is in. My colleagues heard incoherent screaming and shouting from outside, and it lasted a long while. Turned out it was a guy who just lost his mind for no reason anyone could understand, and he took a cinnamon bun from a nearby café and mashed it in the face of a random old lady using a rollator walker.
 
One time I was playing Madden with a few friends, one of which was a total hothead when it came to gaming. Now, I'll be the first to admit, I absolutely suck at Madden and most sports games past the 16-bit era. But for some reason, this time I was keeping up with him. So he's screaming and red-faced the whole game until the last play when it was all tied up. All I needed to win was a relatively short field goal.

Instead, I ran a direct snap play (back when you could do that) and scored a touchdown to win. At first, he didn't say anything. Then I said, "Ahhh, now I'm going to relish in my victory."

This is where things got out of control.

"WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SAY RELISH? WHY CAN'T YOU JUST SAY ENJOY INSTEAD OF USING FANCY WORDS TO MAKE ME FEEL STUPID?!"

He slammed the controller down onto a nearly full can of Coke, knocking it over onto the carpet. He runs upstairs, slams the front door, and peels out of the driveway...right into the side of my car.

This made him go ballistic. He was screaming at the top of his lungs about how I parked the car there so he would purposely hit it. He ended up having to pay around $500 to fix the smashed fender, side mirror and tail light.
 
I take it someone has posted the Uncharted 3 fans going mental last year, when Eurogamer gave a game none of them had played yet a very eloquent, thoughtful review ending with the words "eight out of ten"?

In terms of collective meltdowns localised on Neogaf, that was a winner in my book.
 
Oh man that FF XIII for 360 was really special. I remember one CLASSIC meltdown there. I didn't see it mentioned before...

IT was something like "I don't know if you guys understand the Japanese culture (I'm an expert), bla bla bla"... "they shot themselves in the foot", etc. That was awesome lol

I wouldn't call this a meltdown as I'm sure the dude was crazy but:

Years ago when I worked at a movie theatre we were playing Harry Potter. I forget which movie it was but there was a gentleman sitting in the front row who seemed normal enough. Once the movie started he got out of his seat and started walking up and down the aisles yelling "YOU'RE ALL GOING TO HELL, THIS IS A HEATHEN MOVIE!" and asking people if they had found god. My manager rushed in there and escorted him out of the theatre. He didn't fight back or anything he calmly walked out.
 
Oh boy...
 
I just had to help take down a guy at work who was almost in a blind rage. I told him today would be his last day since he wasn't catching on to the job fast enough and I was overstaffed as it was. He took it calmly enough, then walked away. A few minutes later he randomly attacked another employee, screaming and yelling god knows what. He ended up being carted off in handcuffs crying like a baby.

I hate firing people.
 
when tom green did that show from his living room for a few years and took calls he had some pretty hilarious meltdowns over prank calls, incompotent people working for him, not enough viewers, broken technology, etc.
 
The worst for me has to be an ex of mine, I caught her trying to cheat so dumped her, but she begged me back saying she would call things off. After much convincing I decided to give her another try, I loved her but my trust was much lower.. so a few days in I checked and sadly, she was still contacting the guy.

For the next week I became the perfect boyfriend, I'd not seen her so happy in ages, but when I asked her about contact, she lied. That was it. I gathered all of my evidence and arranged a romantic night out on the Friday, told her to meet me in town.

I turned up to greet her, she was looking great and had a huge smile on her face. She stood up to greet me, arms swung open for a hug but I gently pushed her back down into her chair.

"It's over"

Her jaw dropped, instantly she was shattered and quite obviously confused. She asked why, so I gave her the collected evidence (I'd wrote it on paper), handed it to her and said it was because this proved she was still cheating.

She was in shock, the people around us didn't know what to say, waiters stop in horror and people sitting near by didn't know how to act.

I walked off.

She ran after me, and she was near enough frothing at the mouth, like an angry pit bull ready to tear the face off a child. She wasn't talking sense, she was mostly begging for another chance and trying to justify her actions but I wasn't listening. Continued walking.

Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks shouting "that's it, if it's over then I might as well just kill myself here". I turned out of concern, she was already in her bag. I wasn't sure where this was going, we were in central London, it was busy, surely she wouldn't?..

She took out her purse, and from it a credit card which she promptly snapped and put to her wrists. I told her to stop being stupid, she continued and cut herself. At this point I jumped in and restrained her, she tried to continue in hysterics.

I eventually took the card and pocketed it, she broke from my arms and ran, into the busy road. I grabbed her by the arm, just in time as she ran right into the path of a speeding black cab. It stopped, she got in.

At this point, I should have left her but I was worried. She said she'd calm down, we just needed to talk, she checked us into a hotel.

I thought no harm in talking, I wouldn't leave her in such a crazy state. She decided to take a bath and cutting details, tried to kill herself again.

The rest of the night was crazy, but I left when she was asleep and told her friend where she was.

Later on, I heard she cut her long hair really short and died it blue before leaving the country and moving to Hong Kong.

It was scary, I never want to go through that again.

Damn.

Were you planning to humiliate her publicly or was that accidentally?

Not at all, I didn't want to humiliate her, just dump her in a location she couldn't make a big scene or smash my stuff up. We'd had arguments in the past at my place where she's smashed things up and refused to leave.
