But lets see what happens when a gumby tries to reenact it:

Run! :lol:
What I love about running is you can meditate while running. It's a peaceful place.

How in the hell did he get away? That is seriously the most half-assed security guard job I think I've ever seen. They just stand there once he finally starts coming down, then watch all kinds of surprised as he runs like hell.

NEWS FLASH!!! People who are breaking the law usually don't want to get arrested!!!
