Henry Winkler Snaps At Man Who Tried To Bodycheck Him At Post Office

Footage of Henry Winkler getting in a brawl while trying to leave a post office made rounds on social media, with the iconic actor struggling with a weird-looking shopper in a black outfit. Thankfully, the incident was met by cameramen on the outside who caught it on tape and warned the assailant.

The attacker threatened to call the police and refused to let Winkler out the door while yelling at him. He then turns to those recording, demanding why they were capturing him and demanding them to quit. Minutes later, the crazy person suddenly let Winkler go and left the spot.

Fans react to Henry Winkler’s post-office encounter

The clip made it to TikTok with the caption, “The Fonz gets shoulder-checked at the United States Post Office in Los Angeles, CA.” It went viral in no time, with nearly 4,000 comments reacting to the 57 seconds of chaos. “Nobody touches the FONZ,” someone wrote with an angry face emoji.

Another assumed the guy in black was not a resident of America and did not know who Winkler was. “I didn’t see a shoulder check,” a TikTok user explained. “I seen the Fonz touching the man and letting him know that he was behind him and the man turned around because he didn’t know who it was. Honest mistake.”

Winkler’s roles have given him a reputation as Hollywood’s nice guy; however, the actor sees himself as otherwise. He clarified that he is more of a joyful person who enjoys being on earth, and people tend to mistake his grateful demeanor for niceness.

During a recent episode of the SmartLess podcast by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes, and Will Arnett, Winkler said he once got a visit from three men in badges who he thought were the FBI coming to check him for marijuana. Turns out, they just wanted to meet the famous Fonzie from Happy Days!
