“The bouncers just stood there and gave no help, just looked on, It was awful.”

The incident took place on 27 Apr whilst Charlie and Jackson were on holiday in Benidorm, Spain.

The duo were in Insomnia nightclub on the main strip when they spotted two lads fighting.

The pair stepped in to break up the fight before the two were escorted out of the club.

Jackson and Charlie followed the pair and witnessed one get sprayed in the face by a bouncer whilst the other was let back in.

Charlie said: “I went up to the bouncer to say that wasn’t fair before I knew it he turned his back and then sprayed me directly in the eyes for having an opinion.

“There was no warning or anything said towards me or any violence shown by me he just sprayed me.

“I then couldn’t see anything and was left by the bouncers outside not knowing where I was.

“That’s when Jackson helped me.”

After the pain subsided the pair found the funny side of the situation posting the aftermath online.

The clip racked up over 215,000 views, with many viewers revealing their own horror stories from the popular Brit holiday spot.
