An elderly man repeatedly kicked a reclining front seat back on a bullet train in central China.

Video filmed on a high-speed train travelling through Henan Province on June 25, shows a senior citizen vehemently kicking the seat back of a man, who had reclined his seat.

The young man adjusted his seat backwards, only to be met with a swift kick from the disgruntled older passenger seated diagonally behind him. A woman sitting beside the elderly man hastily stood up, attempting to lower the older man's foot.

The young man, taken aback, turned around to confront the irate senior: "This is my right. Am I squishing you? What is the matter? You are older, I won't argue with you."

Despite this, the older man continued to reprimand the younger one. In response, the younger man retorted, "Your seat is also reclined. Why don't you sit up straight?"

The elderly passenger continued to kick the seat in front, dishing out an impressive seven kicks in just a minute. The altercation was finally defused when the train conductor arrived on the scene.

6月25日，一动车组列车行驶至河南境内时，一名年轻男子入座后因调整座位与后座老人发生争执，被后座老人一脚踢正。
视频显示，一男子向后调整座位，被斜后方的老人狠狠一脚踢了回去，老人身旁的女性赶忙起身让老人把脚放下来。
男子扭头与老人理论：“这是我的权力，我是挤着你了？还是怎么了？你年龄大了，我不跟你多说了。”
不过老人依旧不依不饶指责男子，男子说：“你的座椅也是向后躺着的，你怎么不立起来啊？”
大爷变本加厉接着狂踹前排座椅，一分钟内上演7连踢，直到乘务员赶到现场，双方才平息下来。
对此，12306回应称，列车上属于公共场合，老人踢人家的座椅肯定是不对的，正常情况下，直立座椅坐久了肯定是不舒服的，关于此类情况没有硬性规定，只能多沟通，如果有需要，列车员也会协助进行沟通。
