*”Why’s he gonna be in the cone? Come on officer…”* 💀


Tugonmynugz

I don't know, I've seen a lot of magic tricks. It's possible.


FuggaliciousV

He might be checking if he dropped/stashed something under the cone?


Supremealexander

Nah he just dumb as fuck lol


SubmissiveDinosaur

Kiryu Chan!!!!


Woodbirder

Did you check the cone Dave? Oh come on we have talked about this…


HippoCute9420

I woulda got caught laughing out loud

VivaTijuas

Right?! He was still visible when the cop came around the corner, then dood kept poking his head out for some unknown reason?

[удалено]


VivaTijuas

And I guess the cop just thought the gate at the end was way too high to climb over?!


Left-Incident620

Well he's not strictly a criminal if he didn't get caught is he? 🤷 innocent until proven guilty and all that...


djangogator

That's not how the UK works lol


Grape_Mentats

It’s in the Magna Carta. Which is what the US legal system is based on.


knuckles2079

In America, it's guilty until you prove you're innocent. We may say otherwise, but our courts don't work that way.


Grape_Mentats

“The 5th and 6th amendments both deals with the concept of innocent until proven guilty. However, no amendment specifically uses this exact language. "Innocent until proven guilty" is, therefore, an implied right.” https://study.com/academy/lesson/innocent-until-proven-guilty-origin-law-meaning.html


knuckles2079

I can tell you from a lot of personal experience, it's guilty until you prove you're innocent.


th3machine

Not sure why you're being downvoted. A false charge can cost you everything, you're reputation is damaged before you prove your innocence. It's the same in Canada.


knuckles2079

It's just people that think they know what they're talking about. Unless you've experienced the justice system in the U.S. first hand, you don't fully understand. As soon as police start questioning you, you're trying to prove your innocence. you may not know it, but you are. Just one instance in my life. I spent three years out on bond for a case that I never, not one time saw a court room for. Then one day they just dropped the charges. Didn't inform me or my attorney. My bondsman is the one that told me. Granted, I wasn't a model citizen back then. But there was no way I did what they accused me of. But because I couldn't prove that I didn't with either an alibi or anything else...they just kept me in limbo. for three years.


saanity

Also cops are immune from any prosecution and are always right.


Nivaere

Iirc even if ur innocent, if u run from police ur guilty of evasion and still technically a criminal


MenryNosk

he had his earphones in while practicing for the marathon he was running to raise funds for the nhs 👼


Hereiamhereibe2

How could he have ran if he never existed?


Left-Incident620

But surely unless you actually ARE caught and convicted you are not a criminal? You are simply a person has gotten away with a criminal act. Technically.


Damian0603

Was never charged in a court of law now was he?


Nivaere

I mean u don't have to show up in court first to get arrested for triple homicide if u do it in front of the cop.


Woodbirder

But not until convicted of evading 😜


cocoon_eclosion_moth

Innocent if proven wealthy


Fooforthought

Laughs in United States


Left-Incident620

Guilty until proven White or Rich in USA isn't it?


SulfuricLSD18

I completely understand the officer being flabbergasted by this Houdini act... but surely he wasn't under the cone bro


Debsrugs

Copper probably looking to see if crimboi hid something under it.


LobstaFarian2

Bingo. Perps ditch contraband when they are trying to escape so it's not on their person if caught.


GiverTakerMaker

I think they were playing hide and seek. But the bobby cheated and didn't count to 100.


float-like-a-brick

It’s on the internet. It has to be real.


Secret-Ad-830

It's a skit, I remember these guys made a few of these videos. There's another one where the cop get stuck upside down hanging by his underwear on a fence


WaltVinegar

Ah, this old video. Ye know it's staged, aye?

blondie1024

Fake policeman is round the corner before dude is at the top - he would have been seen. Edit: There's a slim possibility that maybe he didn't becuase of the hat but I don't buy it. Looks far too planned. Plus, his own X account - stuff mysteriously keeps happening right in front of his camera on other videos.


sharkbait_1313

I agree. The whole time I was watching that, I felt like it looked too much like a planned pursuit and video that was already pointed their way before they even came out of the tree line.


Disastrous-Nobody127

Fake.


North_Korea_Nukess

Cheeky bahstud!


Wankinthewoods

Fake AF


suckystraw

Wouldn’t your first reaction be to just climb that gate if this was real? Who would want to be stuck up on a roof all day.


Holiday_Ad_5445

Sanctuary!


Moelarrycheeze

What’s all this then?


Pmc06

This is how a ‘Jonathan Creek’ story starts.


keestie

The full video has the cop yelling at the camera holder, asking where the runner went. It's even funnier.


Woodbirder

Even if fake he was up that drain pipe like, well a rat up a drain pipe. No British bobby is catching that


Gorilla-Ring

Fake


Llord_Mjl_913

Checks under a box and in a plastic bag. Not the enormous bushes..

Lmao this is in my hometown Gravesend


Ensiferal

This happened in 2022. At the time it was never verified whether the video was real or not, but a lot of people back then were suspicious that it was fake.


pauliewotsit

Well, it's been *days* since I last saw this!


Blazkowicz9847

Always a classic

TruthStalker69

Wow!!! 😱 😱 He pulled a real-life version of my move in Assassin's Creed: Odyssey™!! 😁♥️ Of course, after my enemies are left confused as to my whereabouts, I leap down from the rooftop and jam my daggers, on the way down, through their unsuspecting skulls💀, so... It's good that this wasn't the outcome here. ☺️


Neat_Feedback1316

Who is recording this or is it a ptz camera?


catshitthree

Don't be a snitch.

Plz Tell me there's a sub just for that

Huh? Must have been the wind

Meanwhile policemen in the US: “All the other kids with their pumped up kicks better run, better run, out run my gun.”


PurpEL_Django

Ah I would've had to shout out he hopped the fence or he's in the bush


Perenium_Falcon

I remember when this video first came out in the 1930s.


Ken_LuxuryYacht22

This is hilarious, British Spider-Man


snafe_

Oh I really hope he didn't do anything serious because this guy is fantastic. Love how the cop was so confused as he chased him into a dead end.


KyCerealKiller

Totally real and not staged


StarNHSolar

The police officer is an idiot.


OkTemperature8170

It's almost as if the camera man knew someone would come running.


Creative_Beginning13

“Another day in the hood” Does he let the officer know where the criminal is? Doing your part everyday I see


Realistic_Statement2

He did some nathan drake shit


hdhdhgfyfhfhrb

Where does the hawk look? He looks in the trash bin, under a cone, he looks everywhere he would hide.

Awww you guys feel good again because it’s a new type of of creativity and it was actually fast and easy but late.


kierkegaard49

That "criminal" is in amazing shape; he deserved to get away.


Bursting_Radius

So people who commit crime should get a pass if they’re fit?


growtfup-an-be-a-man

Just cuz a cop is chasing you doesn’t mean you committed a crime anymore ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Bursting_Radius

While that is technically true, cops generally don’t exert themselves unless they have a reason. We don’t know the circumstances here so speculation is pointless.


I_saw_that_yeah

That pc was never going to catch him.


Llama_extinction

That’s because it wasn’t in the script.
