Gardai have launched a ganghunt to find the young group behind this gruesome city attack on a teen over the weekend.
The shocking footage shows as many as three teen boys kicking the victim of the attack in the face and back as they issue him with several threats.
The incident is understood to have taken place in the Ballsbridge area on Saturday night.
One member of the group can be seen knocking him to the ground in the video before delivering the first blow to his back.
A voice can be heard saying "don't come back to school you little rat" before one of the attackers kicks the helpless teen in the face.
The abuse continues with the gang warning "Don't be calling my mates out on TikTok, you little ratbag" kicking him once again while still on the floor."
They tell the boy to "watch yourself" before the video skips to a close up of the victim with one saying "now say sorry, you little ratbag."
Gardai confirmed that the teen was also robbed on the night with a number of valuables nicked.
A source told Dublin Live that the fights are being organised on TikTok.
They said: "Victims are often lured by trusted friends or can be willing to go to the meet-up themselves.
"They are organised on social media platforms like TikTok with the gangs posting clips of the beatings to gloat to their friends."
A Garda spokesman told Dublin Live: "Irishtown Station are investigating a theft incident that occurred on the 10th of April.
"A boy aged in his late teens was approached by a number of males who attempted to take his belongings.
"A number of his belongings were taken during this incident."
He added: "No arrests have yet been made and investigations are ongoing."
