Mike Tyson Gives Insight Into Why He Beatdown That Dude on an Airplane: 'I Was High...'

Look, I don't think any of us are strangers to drugs. If we haven't done them ourselves, we know someone who has. So when I say I don't understand how anyone could get so angry on weed to deck someone in the face, I'm expressing true puzzlement.

But that was exactly what Mike Tyson told Jimmy Kimmel. According to Outkick, Tyson explained that the reason he went HAM on some guy's dome was because he was baked.

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have done that," Tyson said. "But I was irritated, tired, high, pissed off, yeah. Sh*t happens."

Yeah, sh*t does happen, but how are you pissed off and high at the same time? I'm going to need some of the potheads in our readership--I know you exist, so don't try to say you don't exist--to explain to me how that works. All the stoners I've ever met were the most laid back people ever--at least while they were stoned they were.

It also makes me wonder if Tyson was even more high hugged it out with this guy. At what level of intoxicated does Mike Tyson go from ready to beat your face in to huggable? This is one of life's big questions.

Drugs are bad kids. In the case of Mike Tyson, they seem worse for the people around him than they do for him, but that's not really the point. Don't do drugs. Stay in school. And if ever you see Tyson with a joint, don't get on his bad side.
