Well, let's put it in this way ... when a particular individual is doing something which is unsual or different from the rules/policies/ways/styles that everyone else is supposed to follow, and also (at his present time) which is not recognized by his groups/society as a good or safe practice, then he is considered as an abnormal person. Hope that helps and makes it clearer to you.:)

Normal is behavior typical of most people. Abnormal is bizarre or strange behavior.
