THIS is the shocking moment a McDonald's customer is knocked to the ground with one punch.
Video footage shows two men exchanging harsh words before one man launches his fist into the other man's head, causing him to dramatically flop to the ground.
The clip shows one man confronting the other as the pair stand at the back of the queue inside the fast-food restaurant in Taunton, Somerset.
The man wearing a white t-shirt – who appears to be intoxicated – is seen getting close to the face of the other man, who is seen in a dark jacket and jeans.
As one man stands his ground, the other staggers back and fourth while slurring phrases which seem to try and entice him into a fight.
He says: "What are you going to do mate? Who the f*** are you?
