He's like 4 times her size and there are multiple members of staff present, they could quite easily have safely restrained her until police arrived. I suppose maybe the guy doesn't know how badly that could have gone, but in my opinion, it was beyond reasonable force. I also think it was hugely unprofessional, as I strongly suspect he did it because she was pissing him off and not because he felt in any way at genuine risk and in need of defending himself.
(Again this isn't a gender issue, I'd be saying the same if it was a [...small...] man in the video)

I doubt they are trained to do that so although I agree the way he restrained her could have caused serious injury, I would sympahise more with him than her, if she had prosecuted.
I think there are alot of aggressive woman around, like this woman, and they really need to make sure they keep their hands to themselves, Not every man is a 'gentleman' and would treat them gently.
