Tmz reports that Mel Gibson was speaking at a college campus last night when he exploded at a woman asking questions, and told her to f*** off.

The woman was an expert on the Mayan culture, and had accused Mel of racially stereotyping the Mayans in his film 'Apocalypto'.

We're told Gibson also became extremely angry when members of the Mayan community protested on how they were portrayed in the film. The emotional Mayan members were escorted out of the room, and we're told Gibson screamed a parting shot -- "Make your own movie!"

TMZ updated the original article with a blurb from Mel's publicist saying that the woman was a heckler who was so rude and disruptive that she had to be escorted out.
