I have had a run in with this man when I worked Security at Pike Place Market. Let me start by saying, he is a Vietnam Vet and yes.... He knows how to use a sword. I told him to drop the beer in the garbage, and he started to engage me. He said, "Ain't nobody taking my beer!" He started approaching me as though he was about to fight. I ripped out my night stick and demanded he step back. I radioed for backup. A minute later, my radio screams "Stand Down! Stand down!" I came back with a "I can take this guy!" My boss runs up, pulls me back and yells to him, "Willy, just leave!" It was then that my coworkers told me he is the infamous Samurai guy. 😂 Police told me he indeed is a very dangerous man and knows how to fight. I was told he would have eaten me for dinner. He eventually settled with Seattle Police over that. He was hit in the mouth with a rubber bullet. My understanding is he got close to a million dollars. This was in the mid 2,000's when I had my run in with him. I am sure he is still lurking around Seattle.
“They offered him a Big Mac and when he didn’t take it they thought he was insane” has to be one of the craziest things that went through anyone’s head ever
He took a sack to the sack, endured tear gas, tranquilizer darts, a fire hose, and even resisted the urge to take 50 dollars or a big mac, this guy is a legend.
I wonder in what places it's illegal to hold a sword in public, either way they should have just kept an eye on him and waited until he gave up or ran out of energy.
He's a true main character. Writes history, loses, nobody finds him ever again, and the last proof hes there is a sword sticking on the ground as if he gave up being a samurai, or just rested there. What a legend.
The samurai sword appearing at the homeless tent is like a fucking hero in a show showing his face after some huge legend is told to some grandchildren.
This man was the embodiement of "Hesitate and you lose". He stood his ground for 11 hours and only after that many hours the cops managed to deplete his posture! Isshin would be proud.

The reason he seemed to not be taking any damage from the darts and nut bags was because he was drawing his sword so fast to counter that it looked like it didn’t even come out.
We all couldn't see it, but the reason he stopped the tranquilizers was because he sliced them, and the gas didn't affect him because he was swinging the sword so fast, the air around him got cut into cleanliness. As for the water, it was his only weakness, maybe because he is an earth element type

@@lapuh8810I'm aware of that but technically he didn't really do anything here that needed this police reaction at all The main point in my comment is that he did not assault an officer with a deadly weapon

Something like this just happened in the Erie mall. Some dude with a sword was in the food court. He immediately got taken down by cops but still insane
Holy shit, I REMEMBER SEEING THIS ON THE NEWS!!! They didn't mention he was there for 11hrs though, they just made it seem like he jobbed to the fire hose and called it a day. They also mentioned on the news report that he said he was "the reincarnation of an ancient hero." Bro, that line lived rent free in my head for years, and I swear I would never hear about this again until today. 🤣
Man just out here testing out his human potential by getting tranquillize, shot by a riot pellets, enduring tear gas, a whole poseidon blast on him, and even not getting tempted by the big mac and the 50$. Yet, he's still standing there, menacingly, holding on to that samurai sword.
this comment being under the "that sword sticking out the tent feels so much like a tribute a developer would put on an open world game." makes this comment even greater
This menacing man was carrying a sword in its sheath walking minding his own business, got followed for around 6blocks by the same guy noticing him along the way and when he brandishes his sword taking a defensive manner and being suspicious of the off duty cop "reinforcements" which came in aka 50 cops basically harassed him. The man didn't attack any of them nor commit any crimes, you can say he has a katana on him however this is in a country in which you can literally carry loaded armed weapons in the open so this would be the least

Tiktok editors began giving the film a new wave of popularity but the issue behind the surge of relevance was that the movie was very misunderstood. People began idolizing Patrick Batmen, which was severly ironic because the character was never written to be liked. Christan Bale himself said he liked nothing about the character. It’s meant to be an irredeemable character. The distaste from the movie has came from this, as people with common sense understood it’s not a character to praise. I do plan on changing my profile but I haven’t got around to it yet because I never really had a reason to

Holy crap! I had vague memories of this incident on live television, and I was only three years old at the time! This is so insane being able to rewatch and relive my childhood at the same time!
Man really proved that you could always bring a sword to a gunfight
If the dude had both guns and a sword, he would be the closest thing to a real-life Deathstroke of DC.

You wanted to be a schizophrenic, homeless black man wandering the streets of the city with a samurai sword after a ten year stint in a mental hospital and getting into an intense armed standoff with 50 police officers in riot gear when you were a child?

I remember when this happened. I think i saw it on RealTV. I was like 10 yrs old and remember thinking that guy was the coolest most bad ass dude on the planet. Im 35 now. My opinion of him has not changed. Thank u for making a video about this
yeah i have to agree with you on that one
he is a crazy dude who committed assault with a deadly weapon on an officer who hadn't even confronted him then got into a standoff with police. why would you look up to him
@@Mileal76He committed assault with a deadly weapon? On an officer? No he didn't.
He saw a guy that followed him for multiple blocks, probably felt threatened because of it and made sure to let that guy know that he is willing to defend himself.
I don't see anything wrong with that.
@@Z38_US i mean he is madman not in a positive way and also assault with attempt to rape that's actually not good
@@lapuh8810I'm aware of that but technically he didn't really do anything here that needed this police reaction at all

The fact that they’ll put 50 officers for this, but not for a shooting is insane.
If you have a menacing man with a sword that refuses to give up for a couple of hours, you know they'll try to overpower him faster
@@BLET_55artem55 what about a menacing man with a gun
@@BLET_55artem55 11 hours
This menacing man was carrying a sword in its sheath walking minding his own business, got followed for around 6blocks by the same guy noticing him along the way and when he brandishes his sword taking a defensive manner and being suspicious of the off duty cop "reinforcements" which came in aka 50 cops basically harassed him. The man didn't attack any of them nor commit any crimes, you can say he has a katana on him however this is in a country in which you can literally carry loaded armed weapons in the open so this would be the least
@@MrSelioss you certainly do not know that laws of logic don't apply to US legal systems. Carrying swords in general is against the law

@@darklyripley6138 no he didn't
@@mandudeguy558 Yes he did. Disturbing the peace, menacing, carry a deadly weapon by a prohibited person, etc.
@@darklyripley6138 when exactly were people prohibited from carrying a weapon? It’s not like a sword is more deadly than a gun, and he didn’t disturb the peace, he quite literally just walked around minding his own business until the off duty cop who was a random person to him started following him
@@mandudeguy558 It is illegal to carry a sword in Washington. Not only that, but this guy clearly would not be allowed to carry one even if he could, because of the assault, and attempted SA charge.
Under Washington state law, this guy would also be guilty of menacing, and a few other charges. Since the carrying of the sword was unlawful, every time he refused an order from police, or took an aggressive stance at them, that would be another charge.
