Raising Arizona is such a great flic.

He smiled at me!

I loved Miller's Crossing and Fargo. I couldn't finish Raising Arizona, however.

Son, you got a panty on yer head ...

1. Distract security guard
2. Have your friends load up on goods
3. Profit!

Deadends or cul-de-sacs suck for urban sprinting,,unless theres that burglar escape route at the end of it.

SBA_JKRed...

You must not have had your Dip/Tet.

BYO security tag, wrapped in foil. Best way to get in without setting off the alarms.

Was it the menstrual cramps?

Thanks Subby, I LOL'd. However, JK here seems a bit unimpressed...

I'll take these Huggies, and, whatever cash you've got.

///Damnit, I love that movie

Funny clip. I'm almost tempted to do this myself, but knowing me, I'd probably end up in jail or break something.

Did you hear the one about the cement truck that crashed into the paddy wagon? Twelve hardened criminals escaped.

By the way, the yodeling theme music is based on a classic 1930s-era steel-guitar Hawaiian song, "Waimea Cowboy."

The other music in that clip is by composer Ennio Morricone, from one of the Sergio Leone spaghetti westerns (maybe "Fistful of Dollars").

How'd he get the security tags off? Those things are impossible to remove without the tool.

Yaaay my second link green!

Aparently I've got to install a new version of Windows Mediaplayer to see this vid.

I really can't be arsed. Especially when I use Linux. Yes, I could get it to work... but why should I? What's so great about this video that it couldn't be encoded in mpg, avi, rmvb, or one of the dozen or so *standard* video streams????

Grumbly grumble damn kids on my damn lawn damn video hell why don't they do it in ascii-mation....

I love it.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

YeeeeeeeeeeEeeeeeEeeeEeeEeeeee.....

Isn't it somehow a law against pretending to be stealing from a store? I'm sure you can be charged with creating a disturbance.

I don't know.

pummisher,

They don't have the Patriot Act in Britain so he's safe.

Slothie,

The video is available at almost every flash-video-player website (youtube, myspace, maybe google video, metacafe, break, etc.) The show is called "Balls of Steel" and I found it hilarious.

Just use mplayer, Slothie. No wonder people get the impression Linux is difficult to use. You could even watch the video in ASCII with mplayer.

Slothie:

Get the videodownloader extension for firefox.

Is it just me, or does that host look like Dave Letterman?

/with better teeth, ironically

mplayer or totem-xine, yeah.
I always had far more trouble with media stuff in Windows until I discovered BSplayer (back before it got adware'd up) and VLC.

Xine works far better than me than the melange of WMP/Real/Quicktime/etc.

just grab it and run!


the objective is to reach the nearest Unpainted Arizona!

Better get their dip/tet or they'll develop lockjaw and nightvision.

"turn to the right"

Those are some determined security guards. The ones I've seen in action locally barely break into a jog before they give up and pretend like they didn't see where the kids went.

Ballsy, looks fun though.

Good skit, but impossible to pull off in real life.

Why? If you have a "securi-e" tag on you, you can't get into the store w/o setting it off. That, and the guards were probably in on it.

I used to play this game a few years back. Mind you I was the security guard in those races, and if I won it was a alot more fun for me than them. Good times.

Man I hope this catches on in the USA.

wtf is dip/tet

LOL Sure.

Looks like they must have had about 20 different cameramen to catch all of the action, including multiple angles in perfect position to record the same scene...but it's funny as shiat to listen to him order at the end whether it's real or not...heh

Its a shot you are supposed to get for young children

That Rupert's a sly one. Already knows his A-B-C's.

These balloons blow up into funny shapes and all?

Well no, not unless round is funny.

When I saw urban Sprinting, for some reason I thought of this video.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=515642196227308929

This is more like urban jumping than sprinting. Much much cooler. If the link doesn't work, just check out russian climbing under google video.

Work's what's kept us happy.

Well, which is it young feller, you want I should freeze or get down on the ground? If'n I freeze, I can't rightly drop, and if'n I drop, I'm a gonna be in motion.

/well no, not unless round is funny

I used to have a friend in high school that worked at Sam Goody's in the mall. They had those stickers that were near impossible to remove from CD's that would set off security alarms. We would go in there and he would give us a couple and we would put them sticky side up on the floor so people would step on them, they would stick to their shoes and the alarm would sound as they left. It was usually some poor unsuspecting soccer mom that would get totally flustered when the security guard stopped them and searched them for stolen merchendise. Hilarity ensued on many occasions.


\ahhh to be young and dumb again.

Jack31081: Why? If you have a "securi-e" tag on you, you can't get into the store w/o setting it off.

Wrap it in foil to take it in. Unwrap it, walk out.


Buufoo: How'd he get the security tags off? Those things are impossible to remove without the tool.

I would guess he or someone he knows *worked* at a retail place, and took one from the bin of removed tags. Simple.

TeknaDan: This is more like urban jumping than sprinting. Much much cooler.

OMFG. That's Prince of Persia shiat right there.

"Excuse me, excuse me. I'll have a cheeseburger and some f***ing chicken nuggets! WEEEEEEEE!

ROFL.

It's "Goofing Off Suite" by Pete Seeger

Holy balls, that's the funniest farking thing I've seen all month!

This amuses me to no end.

/not really sure why, though

You can easily get in the store without setting the security tags off. Here's two methods, there's many more:

1) Wipe it through SUPERFAST. Walk through the gates, then whip your hand through as fast as you can. Won't ding.

2) Bring two security tags, and keep them right up against each other. Won't ding. Then when you're in, just put 'em in different pockets.

demanton: "It's "Goofing Off Suite" by Pete Seeger"

Hmm, maybe they took it from his song. I have a Hawaiian steel guitar anthology CD (great stuff) that has a 1930s song called "Waimea Cowboy" that uses that yodeling/melody.

Dam, my stomach hurts...

I seriously want to do that, but I'm to scared of getting arrested, publicly humiliated...
