Criminals may be a cowardly, superstitious lot, but "Shakespeare-ing yourself when a full-sized human bat flaps at you from the ceiling" isn't an accurate indicator of guilt: innocent people do that too. That's why we're stuck with courts.
Prankster par excellence Rene Gaillard unleashed the fury of the bat on an unsuspecting world, and every second you spent not clicking on the above link, or this link here, is an extra second in the "Time your life was a barren and blasted wasteland of non-comedy by comparison with what came after" column.
Seriously, we're saying this as a growing comedy concern for whom every click counts: GET THE HELL OFF OUR PAGE AND WATCH THIS. We'll be here when you get back.
This goes about as well as you'd expect
You watched it yet?
"Come on, buddy, we know Commissioner Gordon likes you, but you gotta find someplace to sleep."
Rene is a master of simple but stunningly effective presentation: everyone expects other people to be the right way up, and while that would barely merit a "duh" from you or me, he turns it (and himself) upside down with hilarious results*. He pranks random bystanders, trains, gas stations, is beaten up by government employees, and understands the true value of putting in hours of work for one single second of perfect pranking. He also set the video soundtrack to "Ghostbusters", just because it and he are awesome.
You know what? You can caption this last photo. Post your entries in the comments below.
*Since the phrase "hilarious results" is not here on the back of a DVD, that means it's actually true.

Funny article, and even funnier video. This guy is brilliant.

The bat's graceful getaway at the gas station made my pickle trickle.

Oh and by the way, his name is not Rene but Rmi but I guess you wouldn't know how to pronounce it (more or less like ray-mee) so that's why you settled for a name that anyone would assume is french (and it is).
Check out the rest of his videos, I peed in my pants more than once !! (and I am not ashamed of it!)

And you should read "Remi" with a an acute accent on the E (you know, the one that leans towards the left, to change the pronunciation) but it's not going through Zug weird interface...
Or maybe it's a way to keep french people out of this...
