From Cracked.com:
High school is a bad idea. You’ve got a bunch of moody idiots packed into tiny class-rooms with freaked-out teachers who resent the kids for being so young and full of promise. Something’s gonna go wrong and according to YouTube, that something is the teacher going nuts.
Here are clips of some truly remarkable classroom breakdowns ranging from furious rants to physical violence.

Leave a comment below.yeah, i was in high school just before youtube, and this kind of thing was fairly frequent. i think these outbursts must’ve happened more than twice in my time at high school. one time a substitute teacher wouldn’t let a pregnant girl use the toilet because she was under strict instruction from the regular teacher not to let anyone use the bathroom. another teacher was the kindest man but for some reason thought it appropriate to tell us about his suicidal urges in the past.
oh and another teacher, teaching us about drugs in some kind of health and drugs class pronounced “marijuana” as “mary-jew-ahnnah”
Holy crap. Please tell me that last video is part of an advertisement or something. It’s so hilariously terrible. For reference I’m speaking of this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKv94iuY1cE
The number one (last video on the page) looks staged. The way the hitting stuff is blocked out and the overly dramatic way the foreground kid flies out of the desk and hits the table, and the TV-fight style punches, etc… Doesn’t have the look of a real incident.
That said, I have been in classrooms (way back in the 70s) where teachers have gone off on students in pretty horrific ways. Long before lawyers were so popular. A time when phone cams and Oprah were years in the future. Some of the things that happened with apparent regularity back then would be national news these days.
