A video showing a cocky clubber being sent flying after a single slap in the face by a Spanish bouncer emerged on Thursday.
The footage shows the skinny man teasing the much-larger bouncer, who is decked out in a uniform and a Spanish flag, grabbing at him outside the Theatro Club in Malaga, Spain.
The drunken man taunts the bouncer as onlookers look on in shock.
The bouncer appears to try and reason with him but the drunken man just dances more insultingly.
He slowly moves closer and puts his finger on the bouncer, whose patience has clearly run out.
As the man continued to dance around and bother him, the bouncer finally reacts by pushing him and then slapping him in the face sending him clattering to the floor.
The sound echoes throughout the street as the man falls onto his side over a grate where he lays with his head moving up and down.
He lies on the ground with his head moving back and forth slightly.
The video was posted to Instagram where netizens responded in kind.

Users did not seem particularly sympathetic to the man.

Others commented on the absurdity of trying to take on a man much larger than himself.

There was some expression of support for the man however, saying the bouncer should know better.
As funny as this is. You would think the bouncer would have a little more consideration for the little guy who clearly cant hold his liquor.....Harsh reaction..

As funny as some find this. Lil guy could have hit his head on concrete & died. And for what? As a security guy/bouncer. You gotta make a clear cut call of somebody whos a "threat" and somebody whos an annoyance. Lil dude was annoyance. And bouncer could have handled it better.
