He's like "Oh yeah, that happens all the time." He seems to be grateful as long as it's not a crowbar (as it was the time he was beaten nearly to death).

I just can't help but feel like some part of this was like...him being put on display. He trusted BBC because he'd worked with them before, for a previous documentary on TS. What possible justification was there to place a mic 40 rows back, near to where he was sitting? Not only was HE promised any outbursts, in what he believed was the unlikely chance they'd be so audible, would be edited out, but Warner Brothers (on behalf of Sinners) demanded it be edited out. It was like the BAFTAs wanted their very own Chris Rock/Will Smith moment, except they used a man with a profoundly damaging neurological condition and didn't seem to care that MBJ and DL would be forced in a position of that clip going viral.
