Well, there need to be more such subjects to write about. Be my guest...
Some people just live life to the fullest.
It saddens me that they'll probably catch him down the road. Used to be able to get away after this kind of Daring Escape. Just ride off into the sunset. Stupid fucking technology ruins everything.
Probably even had a really great one-take scene showing how he got there with a great memorable musical number to take focus for a couple minutes.
They didn't recognize him with his clothes on
What did he escape from the most? The penalties for stealing the boat and running around naked, or the bills for the hospital?
The shackles of societal norms
He probably just forged a check for the latter, like in the original movie.
Nice how all cities over 1 million people share the same spirit. This exact story could have happen in Berlin.
"Man accused of taking stolen boat on naked joyride in Spree River escapes from Charité hospital dressed as a doctor"
But it didn't! Let us have this! Americans need something to feel proud of these days. Anything, please God.
Just for anyone who wants to get into the Berlin meme rabbit hole:

If nothing else the dude's got balls.
Oh, did you see him on the boat?
And we'll be watching his career with great interest.
I love this headline and photo.
Mangione/Blasetti 2028

Looking forward to seeing the movie/miniseries based on his adventures

living their best life
Man someone better not rat out this guy like they did Luigi. I was going to say his name, but no, I don’t want some rando remembering it so he can sell him out to the boat-having class.
This guy is living his best life.
My hero

He got dressed? Sellout, smh
