An Adelaide carnival worker has had the latest run-in with a grumpy patron after he cleverly dodged a punch in the middle of their argument.
In footage shared online, the aspiring boxer could be seen verbally arguing with a worker in front of a fairground ride at last weekend’s Adelaide Clipsal 500 Supercar event.
The woman was seen to stagger before a carnival worker in a blue shirt gestured emphatically for her to leave.
Surprisingly, the woman attempted to punch the man in the face in near-slow motion, allowing the worker to easily dodge the swing.
But the woman’s huge swing caused her to lose her balance, her arm swinging around her body and causing her to fall to the ground.

The woman then attempted to try again, standing up and taking a step toward the worker.
Another man, who appeared to be a security guard, intervened in time to defuse the situation with the worker gesturing for him to leave.
The footage was uploaded by the showground worker’s daughter, who captioned the hilarious incident: “I’ve never been more proud of my father…just a normal day for a showman at Adelaide V8.”
Viewers took to TikTok to troll it as the “worst heist” they’d ever seen, joking that it looked like an “attempted cartoon heist.”
One joked that the man “had three to four business days to prepare for that punch,” while another cheekily commented, “he saved that punch for 3:15…he didn’t show up until 5:30…”
Another viewer humorously commented ‘that hit came from Australia Post…’, mocking the organization’s reputation for slow delivery.
“He still gets 10 points for his reaction duck,” said one, while the original poster replied “my dad did some kung fu moves.”
One viewer shared the daughter’s pride, saying it was “unbelievable how she calmed the situation down.”
The carnvial worker’s daughter posted a follow-up video Sunday that addresses some of the questions people had.
‘[The argument] went on for a good 20 minutes before [the punch] it was filmed… this was almost the end of it,’ he said.
The show worker’s daughter posted a video on TikTok answering questions about the incident.
She confirmed that “it was a woman who hit him” and that her father “deflected that blow like a pro.”
“What happened was… that they asked him to leave the attraction… and he didn’t like that,” the daughter said.
‘Super proud of him, I love him.’
The Clipsal Adelaide 500 is the first event of the Virgin Australia Supercars Championship, Australia’s largest domestic motoring event that takes place over four days.
This year the event drew 258,000 fans, with big names like Noiseworks, Jimmy Barnes, The Killers, Amy Shark, Lime Cordiale, The Presets and Baker Boy performing at the post-race concerts.
Winners included 20-year-old Gold Coast local Broc Feeney and Chaz Mostert with a 1-2 result for Holden on the day he said goodbye to the sport.
