This is the man who filmed himself launching a sickening attack on a friend before showing footage of the attack to horrified members of the public.
Callum Taylor-Greensmith subjected David Hughes to a horrendous assault in Wirral last year before gloating to people at a caravan park which both men's families frequently visited.
Today, Taylor-Greensmith was jailed for the horrendous attack, which left Mr Hughes requiring plates to be inserted into his head.

The ECHO has previously reported how Mr Hughes was targeted after the two men had been drinking together over the weekend of the Champions League final.
Liverpool Crown Court heard that after drinking the day after the final Taylor-Greensmith launched an unprovoked attack on his friend, kicking him multiple times in the head and leaving him badly injured.
The 22 year-old was set to be sentenced in August but that was adjourned after a judge at requested further medical evidence about Mr Hughes’ condition.
Frances Willmott, prosecuting, said Taylor-Greensmith and Mr Hughes had become friends through visiting the Park Lane Holiday Park in Meols.
They spent the night of the Champions League final socialising, watching the football and drinking. The next day, they again drank at Mr Hughes’ parents house, as well as at nearby pubs.
However, Taylor-Greensmith became increasingly drunk and aggressive. After Taylor-Greensmith lost his phone and got angry at Mr Hughes for not paying for all his drinks, Mr Hughes suggested he go home.
However, after Mr Hughes returned to his parents’ home, where he was staying while they were at their caravan, Taylor-Greensmith came to the house and attacked him.
Mr Hughes cannot remember much of the assault, instead remembering waking up on the floor of the living room in a pool of blood.
He then called his mum and she had managed to get to the house and call emergency services after finding him bleeding and with severe swelling to the right side of his face that was impeding his breathing.
It then emerged Taylor-Greensmith had filmed the attack on his phone then went to the nearby caravan park and showed it to people in the clubhouse.
In the video, played in court, Mr Hughes could be heard moaning and in clear pain on the floor while Taylor-Greensmith swore at him and kicked him. It was only at this point that Mr Hughes’ dad, who was at the holiday park, found out the extent of his son's injuries.
Ms Willmott said: "Mrs Hughes' husband Keith was still at the caravan site. He was aware his wife had gone back to their home but was not aware of the extent of what happened. It was only then that someone who had seen the video asked him if his son was alright as they had been disgusted by what they had seen [of the attack]."
Doctors were able to treat Mr Hughes but the court heard he was still receiving treatment for a number of issues linked to the attack, including significant dental work after damage to his jaw and teeth. Taylor-Greensmith, formerly of Millhouse Lane, initially told police Mr Hughes had tried to attack him but later admitted wounding with intent.
Jeremy Rawson, defending, said Taylor-Greensmith now accepted that the attack happened as alleged by prosecutors and said he was deeply remorseful. While he was set to be sentenced in August, reports that had been requested about the long term prognosis for Mr Hughes’ health had not been returned to the court and so sentencing was adjourned to today (September 29).
Recorder Eric Lamb told Taylor-Greensmith at the last hearing: “By adjourning for further medical reports you should not take that as any indication of what the sentence will be. All sentencing options remain open. Between now and the next hearing you will be remanded in custody.”
Today, Judge Gary Woodhall jailed Taylor-Greensmith for four years and six months. He must serve two thirds of his sentence before he is released into the community.
