I love it how the officer tackles him in mid-air

[–]AvoidingWorkAtSchool 23 points24 points ago

I like how it looked like it hurt to be tackled by a linebacker in a police costume.

[–]Willard2566 6 points7 points ago

for real! that was pro shit

[–]Sean1708 7 points8 points ago

Seriously, he couldn't have timed it better.

[–]thIIIrd 15 points16 points ago

And bounce goes the skull!

[–]javabrewer 15 points16 points ago

[–]buhy97 0 points1 point ago

I watched this exact video not 1 week ago. I'm glad reddit likes parkour too.

[–]HeyylookitsNICK 13 points14 points ago

What was he going to do once he got on top of the SUV?

[–]NullKarmaException 16 points17 points ago

Safe Zone

[–]HeyylookitsNICK 16 points17 points ago

The ground is lava

[–]Specialed83 5 points6 points ago

If you look at the end you see a cop coming from the right side. I assume that he was planning on running on top of the car and jumping down past the other cop. Seems like a decent plan in theory but I feel like the end result would have been the same as the gif.

[–]K__a__M__I 0 points1 point ago

Videogames and too many stupid tv-shows made policework a lot easier i guess.

[–]AgITGuy 1 point2 points ago

Never got far enough to figure it out.

[–]AnAngryPirate 12 points13 points ago

The slow mo then subsequent speed up makes it look like he got tackled by a cop running at 100 mph.

[–]xaelyn 0 points1 point ago

This GIF was directed by Zack Snyder.

[–]drockthecasbah 1 point2 points ago

I came here to say the exact same thing! This video caught a rare sighting of SuperCop!

[–]lvolt 23 points24 points ago

Phoenix PD must have been so psyched to have caught this on camera.

[–]RumpleForeSkin72 10 points11 points ago

Fuck... how's your brain injury doing these days?

[–]USMCEvan 2 points3 points ago

What brain injury? I can't remember any.....

[–]mikent 16 points17 points ago

Watching this is always satisfying. Even if you're in the right, just don't run from cops.

[–]easycumeasyhoe 4 points5 points ago

Unless you can run really quick. Police wear heavy vests.

[–]Kringels 0 points1 point ago

Their bullets don't.

[–]easycumeasyhoe 3 points4 points ago

If you knew anything about being a cop then you would know that they aren't allowed to shoot suspects that are running. Also yes I was a police officer before you ask.

[–]buhy97 0 points1 point ago

Especially if all the suspect isn't armed....

[–]maomao2000 5 points6 points ago

That's what happened in the Amadillo case. Running puts everybody in a really bad situation.

I'd also like to say that he was about to dent the shit out of that hood...to be fixed at taxpayers' expense.

[–]amezbro 3 points4 points ago

If you're in the right, why would you run from the cops?

[–]kamikazewave 1 point2 points ago

I know right? I love talking to the police!

[–]estrtshffl 0 points1 point ago

You're scared? You don't think you'll get justice? There are a lot of reasons.

[–]23_47 1 point2 points ago

[–]buhy97 0 points1 point ago

Good point.

[–]CosmicBard 0 points1 point ago

You see tons of clips of people getting caught running.

There are just as many instances of them not getting caught.

Why don't you see them?

Bad PR for the cops.

[–]Postal18 6 points7 points ago

The police officer was fined $50,000 for the hit by Roger Goodell.

[–]me_groovy 3 points4 points ago

I don't think the speeding up at the end was particularly necessary

[–]jjackrabbitt 4 points5 points ago

Yeah, that's South Phoenix for you.

[–]SuperCoupe 4 points5 points ago

PARKOUR!

[–]nwsent 1 point2 points ago

Obviously the best route.

[–]MMolter 1 point2 points ago

Watching this does not get old.

[–]bamaslammer 3 points4 points ago

the saints need to hire that cop at middle linebacker. they'd finally have one person who can tackle.

[–]Jaxek 2 points3 points ago

Phoenix criminals, people. They're all retarded.

[–]The_One_Above_All 3 points4 points ago

NFL referee says his jump was successful.

[–]wretcheddawn 2 points3 points ago

I'd love to know the strategy here.

"Police are chasing me, I better run toward their vehicle, and jump on top of it. That would get them to let me go!"

[–]Mysin666 2 points3 points ago

I keep watching it, hoping he'll make it

[–]9ninjas 0 points1 point ago

"Here, you forgot your wallet!"

[–]buhy97 0 points1 point ago

That was such a great video! I don't quite understand why the guy started running away in the first place, but it had great parkour in it.

[–]9ninjas 0 points1 point ago

The parkour was was breathtaking to say the least.

[–]EvilGrimace 0 points1 point ago

I'm not sure how it would have ended up better even if he had made the jump, it's not like there was a ledge nearby for him to jump on from the vehicle...was he hoping to stay on top of the car? I mean, there was even an officer coming from the direction he was running towards.

[–]aesir33 0 points1 point ago

he was gonna run up OVER the vehicle to avoid the cop running at him.

[–]EvilGrimace 1 point2 points ago

I get that he was going to run OVER the vehicle, but it's not like that would put more distance between you and the following officer, in fact, it would seriously reduce your forward velocity.

[–]jungl3j1m 2 points3 points ago

African sparrow.

[–]USMCEvan 1 point2 points ago

Carrying a coconut?

[–]DMV_line12 1 point2 points ago

This is how I feel going into a test

[–]HamstersandwichXo 0 points1 point ago

... heh...BWAAAAAAAHHAHAAHHHHAHHHHAHA

[–]the_fatman_dies 1 point2 points ago

'Cue epic Matrix fight scene music'

I am going to make it, just have to run up this truck, do a front flip on the other side, and roundhouse the officer chasing me, and then proceed to steal flip the other one over as he is about to tackle me. Then I will run really fast down an ally and hop up between the walls to the roof. From there, the helicopter will pick me up for my escape.

Five seconds later

Jumping on truck and WOOPS, MY BALLS, OH LOOK, MAYBE THAT OFFICER IS RUNNING OVER TO CATCH MEEEEEE AHHHHH MY FACE!

[–]newb0rn11 1 point2 points ago

And the quarterback IS toast.

[–]TheJucheisLoose 1 point2 points ago

That was a great adjustment for the tackle by the cop.

[–]Ebake09 1 point2 points ago

He had nice form in that hit

[–]xaelyn 2 points3 points ago

Why would he not use the push bar on the front of the SUV, instead of the obviously curved bumper?

[–]mslade 1 point2 points ago

So did he get away?

[–]buhy97 0 points1 point ago

How I imagined you before I recognized the sarcasm. A great piece of advice I learned was how sarcasm doesn't travel well through the internet.

[–]ghlysptwld 1 point2 points ago

Ya don't mess wit the Phoenix PD.. me good boy...

[–]finalnova 0 points1 point ago

You can't do much running if you can't run up the SUV, or its 100 out...

[–]Notloc24 0 points1 point ago

3 my fellow redditors, this is the 3rd time ive personally seen this on r/funny

[–]gliscameria 0 points1 point ago

WELCOME TO PHOENIX BROWN FRIEND!

[–]meatwad1987 1 point2 points ago

i would have loved to see him leap off the van and continue running

[–]Live_Ore_Die 1 point2 points ago

I like how I live in the same city this happened in.

He stole candy or some shit.

[–]burek_japrak 0 points1 point ago

FUCKING COP OUTTA NOWHERE

[–]MattL921 1 point2 points ago

Hardcore parkour!

[–]Xysten 1 point2 points ago

And you can add damaging government property to the list of charges.

[–]BenCelotil 0 points1 point ago

That's the problem with fancy sneakers, no grip on shiny surfaces.

Give me a pair of Dunlop KT-26's any day for car hopping.

[–]kozdrasm 0 points1 point ago

Way to screw that up Foreman!

[–]Jackbear1 0 points1 point ago

Bro, that car is on their side.

[–]j_chenks 0 points1 point ago

I feel like I sustained a concussion just watching that.

Almost missed the cop car! Even if he did succeed, where was he trying to run to?

[–]mehighri323 -1 points0 points ago

Ill just hide on top of their jeep. They'll never find me

[–]mcjinzo 0 points1 point ago

nono didnt you watch the gif? it was a fakeout he was trying hide under the car but the cop was to close.

[–]screwed124816 1 point2 points ago

That kid thought he was going to be the coolest person alive at the start of this gif.

[–]firefae83 -4 points-3 points ago

Went from "epic" to "epic fail" in the blink of an eye.

[–]hattrick14 -4 points-3 points ago

The replacement refs just called that roughing the passer. The man was set free with no charges.
