Even scarier, a lot of people in this thread seem to think it's a good thing.

  Well, that’s because it was the point at which the interview started going well

    I really fail to understand why Michael allowed this behaviour. If it got to a point where voice has been raised, there should have been a concern started and security called into place, promptly adjourning the meeting. Who knows where else this would have gone after that? I wouldn't want to know the fury of a disgruntled Founder looking to revenge for a failed YC interview. Sometimes it is about professionalism. Even though the founder is feeling passionate about their problem space, there are some boundaries you never cross.

      Shouting isn't actually dangerous. It's only dangerous when it is combined with violence or a threat of violence. In this case it's more of an emotional outburst due to frustration. If you suppress all emotion with an escalation to a threat of police and security you're going to have a far less dynamic and safe workplace.
