wild out

Lose all control

Wild out means to lose control in an exuberant, reckless, or aggressive way.

Someone might wild out at a party by dancing frantically, drinking too much, or starting a fight.

The phrase often implies behavior that's excessive but not necessarily negative—just unrestrained: We're gonna wild out tonight.

It can also describe an angry outburst: She wilded out when she found out he lied.
