Shia LeBeouf slaps fan at his request

February 22, 2016 12:16

Actor Shia LaBeouf, who spent 24 hours in an elevator at Oxford Union, punched a fan in the face in the middle of the social experiment, at the student's request.

The Oxford student, who waited in line for hours to get into the elevator with the 29-year-old Fury actor, claimed to be a performance artist himself who wanted a punch from LaBeouf for a project of his own, reported the New York Post. A short video of the incident has surfaced online.

"I'm a performance artist. Can you help me with completion of my next piece by punching me in the face?" the student asked. "Oh man, you want me to punch you in the face?" LaBeouf replied. "I don't want to punch you very hard!" The actor continued to balk at the request. "I don't like doing it though... I just met you." The doors of the elevator soon close, though the punch is audible.
