Footage Of Ed Matthews Being Threatened By A Group Of Gangsters After He Attempted To Rescue Girl ‘They Had Kidnapped’

Ed Matthews came across like a bit of a plonker on Louis Theroux’s Manosphere documentary, but he’s getting a lot of kudos for this clip in which he intervenes to help a girl who appears to be in a dangerous situation.

Matthews claimed to have seen the girl being “snatched off the street”, and has his life threatened as he tries to help her out…

Say what you want about the lad, he’s clearly got a sizable pair of nuts to be involving himself in that situation.

Amazingly – it worked. Two men were taken into custody by police at the scene of the livestream, and three months later, ‘a group of individuals’ including the two who were arrested have reportedly been sentenced to a combined 25 years in prison.

No idea if their sentences are related to the incident in the livestream, but you have to imagine we’re dealing with perpetual law-breakers here.

Fair play to Ed Matthews for his heroics. A lot more useful than those predator stings he does, isn’t it?
