A Michigan student threw an iron chair at his unsuspecting teacher, knocking him to the ground, during a heated argument with another student — in what leaders say is evidence of the state’s failing school system.
Crazy video shows the Flint Southwestern Academy Middle School student pacing near a classroom door Thursday as he yells at an unseen peer.
The arguing teenagers hurled obscenities at each other, with the attacker apparently calling the other “big as f–k.”
The teacher — who can be seen trying to quell the chaos — was standing between the students when he caught the attacker’s wrath.
The chair hit his head and he fell to the ground, remaining motionless for several seconds.
His students seemed unconcerned, with the two teenagers immediately engaging in fistfights over his injured body.
The unnamed teacher was rushed to the hospital and released the same day, according to Flint Community Schools Superintendent Kevelin Jones.
The student will be “legally responsible,” Jones said.
Local leaders seized on the video — which has more than 8 million views on Facebook and X, formerly known as Twitter — as an indication of the state’s weak school system.

“This video perfectly captures the sad state of Education in Michigan – no order or direction, no respect for teachers, and worst of all, NO LEARNING,” said Former Detroit Police Chief James Craigwho plans to run as a Republican in the upcoming Senate race.
“Failure to educate young Michiganders is a recipe for increased CRIME, increased UNEMPLOYMENT, and SOCIAL DISORDER. Michiganders deserve better.”
The injured teacher is “doing good,” according to Jones.

Surprisingly, he has chosen to return to class.
In addition to the law, the student will be detained according to the district’s Code of Conduct, although it is unclear what discipline has been taken or whether the student has been expelled.
