CrazyThomas 0 #1 September 14, 2004 BATMAN Someone must have shined the Bat light up above the palace. I heard Spiderman made an appearance a week ago also. I'm curious as to where Wonder Woman will show up. Thomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adamjenner 0 #2 September 14, 2004 Hahaha i saw that on the daily show! i almost pissed myself laughing so hard! my question is how did he get up there AND have enough time to put the banner up without anyone noticing? let alone walking through the palace in a batman suit TO the balcony.... edit: also, i don't remember batman ever wearing a fanny pack Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CrazyThomas 0 #3 September 14, 2004 I have no idea how he bypassed security (other than climbing the fence), but I am assuming the fanny pack was part of his tool kit to help him put up his banner. I wonder who next week's super hero will be? Thomas Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr2mk1g 10 #4 September 14, 2004 They did notice. He set off alarms the moment he touched the grass on the inside of the wall he scaled. Why no one noticed his ladder or came to shoot him before they did is another question. I figure his fanny pack is a reference to batman's "utility belt"... probably the closest thing available commercially barring geak websites. lucky he didn't get himself shot... in fact they told him they would if he didn't come down. edited to add: as an asside - his cause is very just.

kiltboy 0 #6 September 14, 2004 Certainly a very just cause but I had to rip the attachment off of another web page. David Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lawrocket 3 #7 September 14, 2004 Quotelucky he didn't get himself shot... in fact they told him they would if he didn't come down. I know, brief hijack here for SC topic, but why would they shoot the guy? I'm trying to think of a reason for shooting him when it appeared to be a peaceful protest. My wife is hotter than your wife.

mr2mk1g 10 #8 September 14, 2004 a) who knew what was in his fany pack b) who knew what he was a diversion for c) I'm guessing that in reality it was an idle threat (probably true given that they eventually waited for a cherry picker before they got him down). The one thing we could worry about though - what if genuine terrorists start dressing up as super heros? No one would shoot them on sight as they would just figure it's a protest group - then BANG. (to take this back to a bonfire post - it's the terrorist dressed up as the invisible man you need to look out for ). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
