He was actually arrested for credit card fraud

For those who are confused, it’s a joke from an old Australian YouTube video.

you can learn about it here

[–] RoidingOldMan@lemmy.world 36 points 4 days ago

Happened in 1991 but not uploaded until 2009. Mirrors the plot of Minority Report (2002). Like he could see the future.

[–] NielsBohron@lemmy.world 21 points 4 days ago

I've been on the internet for a long time and I'd never seen that one. You're doing God's work.

RIP "are you waiting to receive my limp penis?" guy. He died a couple of months ago.

“are you waiting to receive my limp penis?”

Since seeing this video clip for the first time, I have spent my life since then awaiting the exact set of circumstances which will make this the line I need to deliver. Alas, it has not yet happened.

If that's not the perfect motivation to write a screenplay and cast yourself in it, I don't know what is!

He’s now in Aussie Crook Valhalla, enjoying endless succulent Chinese meals with Ned Kelly and Chopper Read.

This is Democracy manifest

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 37 points 4 days ago

You read the rolling R's.

[–] cuuube@lemmy.world 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

This is literally the plot of Psycho Pass. Highly recommend btw

[–] Landless2029@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

I thought it was a poke at Minority Report

[–] john117@lemmy.jmsquared.net 3 points 2 days ago

its a one season show and that's it, imo

[–] Kyrgizion@lemmy.world 66 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Get your hand off my penis!

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 60 points 4 days ago

Ah, I see you know your judo well

[–] PresidentCamacho@lemm.ee 27 points 3 days ago

"Are you waiting to receive my limp penis!?!"

[–] Grabthar@lemmy.world 43 points 4 days ago (1 children)

You couldn't stage an arrest video that good. That man could project like a Shakespearean actor.

[–] Agent641@lemmy.world 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

He actually was a stage actor who did Shakespeare, no joke.

[–] Retrograde@lemmy.world 8 points 3 days ago

Fuckin a. It has to be the most theatrical video recorded arrest in human history

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 50 points 4 days ago (4 children)

This would make a great movie. Let’s get that really tall guy from Jack Reacher to be the lead.

[–] Kinakuta@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Actually I'm imagining a heist movie where this guy's makes a scene as a diversion while Tom Cruise steals some jewels or something. I'd watch that.

[–] hanke@feddit.nu 18 points 4 days ago

There's a Futurama episode where they do this!

[–] corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca 9 points 4 days ago (4 children)

really tall guy from Jack Reacher

That's Alan Ritchson. I think he can bench a dump truck.

[–] Maven@lemmy.zip 11 points 4 days ago (8 children)

Alan Richson is from Reacher. Jack Reacher is a movie that starred Tom Cruise (who was also in Minority Report)

Same character but different actors. Notably though, the joke is that Tom Cruise is pretty short.

I'm seeing the video for the first time and discovered where was the beginning of this song sampled from: https://youtu.be/q07G2_zOEWA (badklaat - judo)

Interesting find.

[–] Sabata11792@ani.social 27 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Crime coefficient at 178, non leatal force authorized.

[–] gmtom@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago

I hope the Agent knows his Judo well

[–] djsoren19@yiffit.net 8 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Please aim carefully, and eliminate the target.

Haha oh my gosh, I was just talking about this the other day. This man is a fucking legend.

Succulent with intent to commit wificide. That's a twelve twenty-seven. Book 'em!

[–] bcgm3@lemmy.world 16 points 4 days ago

Shoutout to The Chats for helping to finally identify(?) Mr. Democracy Manifest.

What is this, Person of Interest?

[–] EvolvedTurtle@lemmy.world 9 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Wasn't this a futurerama episode?

[–] gamermanh@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 4 days ago (2 children)

It was, riffing on Minority Report from 2002

[–] okwhateverdude@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

And that memed ~~britsh~~ Australian dude bitching to the cops very loudly in a "how dare you sir!" ridiculous voice.

[–] ShepherdPie@midwest.social 13 points 4 days ago
