Elderly Bloke Throws Teen Off Sunbed After Accusing Her Of Stealing It

Elderly Bloke Throws Teen Off Sunbed After Accusing Her Of Stealing It

The sunbathers said the bed hadn't been used for hours.

People can be pretty territorial of their sunbed, especially if the pool is absolutely heaving with nowhere to sit. If you leave it unattended for a split second, someone will pounce on it quicker than a cannonball and there's virtually nothing you can do about it.

Some people will keep an eye on your stuff, but it's probably worth it to go into the pool with the attitude that everyone is the enemy, and no one can be trusted. While it's well regarded to be a pretty hostile environment, you can imagine the surprise you'd get when someone calls you out for stealing a sunbed that was well and truly yours.

Jenna Deacon and her friend Eilidh Robertson hopped on two beds in a pool in the Portuguese town of Albufeira. They were enjoying the hot sun until an elderly couple came and told them that they were sitting on their chairs.

According to the couple, they had 'reserved' their seats by leaving their towels on top and leaving for several hours. But what happened next was truly bizarre.

The worst I've seen is just a heated argument between two groups around the same age and when one side eventually backed down, there was peace at the pool. However, there is a clear age gap between these two and yet the older couple show that age is just a number.

Jenna and Eilidh try to laugh off the claims that they've stolen the sunbed and reckon it'll be only a few more seconds of bickering until the ordeal is over. That's until the elderly bloke lifts up the chair from behind and throws Eilidh off.

One of them is heard on the footage saying: "Oh my goodness, put me down you fucking weirdo."

Jenna told the Dundee Born and Read Evening Telegraph: "If she just asked us for the beds back we would have given them back to her. It was the fact she came round ready for a fight.

"The reason she was getting so wound up was why we kept going.

"I did think Eilidh would have eventually given it back to her - but I didn't expect her husband to tip her off."

That should serve as a message to all you youngins: don't mess with older people thinking you can beat them. They severely enjoy spending their retirement getting crispy on a sunbed and any interruption to that, especially by dastardly kids, will send them off the edge.

You've been warned.
