Business man freaks out

I saw this on MSN, but I could''t figure out how to get a direct link.  So I did a search and found out this poor guy has been plastered all over the internet.  I guess I regress as I do feel bad but still post it.

This is guy appears to be at a conference and things aren't going smooth. He must have some co worker that hasn't shown up and he lost his cool.   It just made me think, what would I do if I was in his, or his female co-workers position.   Of course we don't know the details, but I think that is pretty much one of the worst case scenarios for any meeting.  To be honest, I don't know how I would have dealt with a situation like that.  I would put it in one of those beyond your control situations.

I agree with comment below the video.  I think it was a set up for a website, but if not that guy needs anger management training!  If I was presenting, I could just go instead of the missing person and just do the best I could.   I always keep back up of presentations available either by email or on cd.   As for the anger of the guy, in my opinion he wasn't listening so there is little anyone could do.

This is a good scenario.  How would our viewers handle that situation?

Wow.  watching this makes me very sad.  He is obviously a troubled individual that has lost perspective on not only this job but life.  He is actually looking like he's on coke.  I cannot imagine that his coworkers did not see this coming - the way his coworker is responding is probably fueling the fire by yelling at him to calm down.  She should have told him and when he didn't, just step out of the way and let security take over.  This is indeed an HR nightmare but hopefully, he's a smart enough guy (or desperate enough to keep his job) that he would have to see a counselor.
