Naw, this is just a case of a drunken tourist acting silly in a tough neighborhood. The longer story that was the tourist was drunk and wandering around the area breaking bottles and asking folks to buy him beer. He goes in, and starts bothering that guy and a few others with the same, and that's how you get to the tape there. It wasn't the friendly sort of thing like the youtuber makes it out to be.
I'm sure the kid probably isn't great, but the tourist wasn't a bright guy either.
