Clearly the guy is a little bit unbalanced but I kind of see where he is coming from here.

Yes. He had a right to be upset. Being upset and angrily informing someone that they have just ruined your work is something we have all probably done (I know I have). That's a far cry from the verbal abuse Bale was laying on. He rants about professionalism, but then proceeds to disrupt the entire shoot. A simple "Hey a-hole, stay off the f'ing set" in the proper tone would have probably been more effective. But no, threatening to walk off the set, abusing a co-worker and continuing to do so even after everyone has acknowledged the problem, that's much more professional.
He should have just taken a couple bong hits and let it ride.
