A naked man of non-Japanese extraction has assailed the very moat of the Imperial Residence, driving back terrified Japanese police with either his nudity, or a series of rocks and other items he picked up.
The man, apparently a Spanish speaker, was spotted diving into the extravagent moat which surrounds the Emperor’s residence in central Tokyo, and police were rapidly summoned.
In total he spent an hour and a half in the moat, and repeatedly drove off police with rocks, splashed water, and quite possibly his nakedness.
As you can see, he was eventually taken without resistance.
On investigation, he was found to have apparently dropped an item into the moat and then gone in to retrieve it. Just why he behaved so strangely is not clear.
Whilst police may have been upset by the man, onlookers were delighted. “There’s a funny thing you don’t see every day” said one lady spectator.
Via Sankei.
Whilst it may be a comical spectacle, once again police perhaps deserve praise for their patience and restraint in not shooting the man out of hand or beating him into submission, although perhaps they took this a little far.
You may also note the rather medieval weaponry they sport…

Why the hell are they running away from a naked unarmed man? I mean christ, it's not like he could hide a gun in his ass or anything.
he's got aids, thats why.
Yeah the disease makes him insane.
If you got chased by a naked man im sure you would run away! as it would probaly mean they are mental and not afraid to bite and scratch! But yeh its pretty funny seeing the faces of the police
not to mention enlarge your asshole in a very un-consensual way... ouchie...
Actually, I think it's possible. The rectum is quite elastic.

(Couldn't find the original article)
Yea, poke him with a stick!
They are afraid he might poke back with his stick.
i'd be more afraid of his rock
"once again police perhaps deserve praise for their patience and restraint in not shooting the man out of hand or beating him into submission"
Are you serious ? Japanese police beating up someone ? Shooting someone ? And an unarmed man, to boot ?! And someone even PRAISED them for not shooting ? Are those pushovers even capable to do this ?
I still remember the clip where ONE, UNARMED, DRUGGED-UP JUNKIE, SITTING IN THE CAR, scared away a Japanese cop brigade. You want to know how he managed that ? Apparently by screaming and moving sharply. As much as it is possible to move sharply inside a car.
DEATH TO THE JAPANESE *hurls brick*
This guy shouldn't be deemed crazy. He should be deemed one fuckin' badass and be awarded or something.
What the hell..? They're running away terrified from an unarmed, naked, probably around 50 years old without any body work, naked man. And they're the Imperial Residence police.
I wonder what kind of chaos will happen when someone shows up with a knife.
LMAO i was laughing so hard they were running away so seriously like he was some evil villain. heh the naked marauder
You missed the main point of the story. They mobilized 50 (!!) police officers to catch one (!!) man.
Even more, these 50 (!!) officers failed in catching him, so he had to turn himself in.
lol
where i live in the good case the police will stop
someone like that in the bad case some bywalker will headbutt him into submission
GUTS!!!!!
WAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
That made my day, seriously.
Wow, I guess if you want to hang around the imperial palace for the afternoon, this is the way to do it. After he pays his fine or whatever, he can be on a Japanese game show appearing as a penalty.
*Spins the wheel... it lands on....*
"Be chased by large naked Spaniard"
Hahaha That's priceless. I found this particularly funny since I've visited the imperial palace once myself. Guy probably had more fun then I did :P
Hah, same here, most interesting thing I found there was a patch of dead grass... :P
oh, i'm sure he found dead grass too *nudge* *nudge*
yeah, put some shampoo on yours, man. It looks like a dead sponge..
He looks absolutely gigantic in comparison to the men with him in these images. Perhaps that's why the police got out the cattle prods....
You know that man in the middle behind the police officers looks like Australias former Treasurer: Peter Costello.
Holy crap, he does! And he looks to be enjoying it a bit as well.
"Whilst it may be a comical spectacle, once again police perhaps deserve praise for their patience and restraint in not shooting the man out of hand or beating him into submission"
That's because it's Japan, not America.
Do they not have tasers in japan???
you guys seem to think all cops should be badass people who knock down resistence no matter what.
Talk about gaijin-smashing, haha!! I'll remember to keep my clothes on in public when I visit Japan.

that is pitiful
running away from a naked man for 2 hours.
what kind of Police are they?!
i hate to see what would happen if there was a Serious threat to an important person. running obviously not the best choice. especially if its a whole group of you.
i give these men no praise at all.
that was a pathetic handling of the situation.
What a bunch of wusses.
Man, if that was America, you better believe there would be tasing, pepper spray, and those awesome beanbag launchers to shoot at his crotch, not even to subdue him, just for kicks. Not to say it's better, but probably more amusing.
Lol at the riot shield and poles though.
i bet if this happens in america, that bro will be tazed XD
or shot with plastic bullets just for the lulz
ooooraaaaa I SMASH PUNY JAPANESE POLICE
On investigation, he was found to have apparently dropped an item into the moat and then gone in to retrieve it.
lol'd
That one should've been one hell of a penis
Wow. Just - wow.
Each of the two countries I've lived in would've handled it differently, but in its own way:
1) America:
Call in a negotiator, a riot-geared SWAT team, waste 2 hours, then end up fatally shooting him by sniper
2) Russia:
First cop to see him would whack him over the head with a police baton. End of story.
Indonesia: Oh ignore that guy, he's just taking a shit down there. They do it all the time.
Fuck yea, Russia!
Xenophobia at it's best
more dangerous than any firearm or bomb: the old wrinkled swinging penis
lol, why are they running away from him, that was hilarious
If they injured the man, a white gaijin, soon CNN and other news would be screaming that Japan´s police is arresting foreigners at random and beating the crap out of them just for fun, portraing the true, evil nature of japanese people.
also, in western coutries:
- UK would kill the wrong person.
- Germany would hunt an imaginary nudist for about a decade because of a contaminated dna sample (and also be smacked by the nudist).
- US would arrest the nudist as a terrorist and keep torturing him until photos of his ordeal hit the news.
- Russia and China would kill the man, arrest his famlies (and in Russia, the chief of the secret police would rape the nudist´s daughter).
Some way in entering the Imperial palace.....
Naked of Doom.
The Japanese police were clearly afraid of the giant penis he sported.
"We've never seen one of those in our country!"
Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
now this is how takeshi's castle was meant to be...
i think...
Three words: L O L
XDDDD
Hes like a white ass King Kong especially when hes climbing up that rock thing looks just like empire state building scene.
I would be running away too, that guy is creepy.
