Another partygoer was also thrown to the ground and knocked unconscious in the mosh pit of Scott’s Sydney show.
In the video, Scott had already taken the stage when a group of men at the back of the general admission area appeared to become irritated.
A shirtless man placed another concertgoer in a chokehold before violently throwing him to the ground.
“Knock him down,” someone shouted.
“Whoa, World Star,” said a second, referring to a news site known for its fight videos.
The victim lay motionless as other concerned attendees rushed to his aid.

Scott’s concerts have earned a notorious reputation for rowdy crowds since a deadly incident in 2021 left several attendees dead in Houston, Texas.
Nine concertgoers were killed at the Astroworld Festival on November 5, 2021 in Houston, Texas.
The county medical examiner said the deaths were caused by pressure asphyxiation, meaning people had suffocated in the crush of the crowd in the mosh pit.
Scott was cleared of any wrongdoing and the deaths were declared accidental.
