Naked Man Arrested After ‘Cannonball’ Plunge Into Bass Pro Shop Aquarium
Bass Pro Shops seem to have everything. Unfortunately, everything means everything. That includes the naked man who was arrested after doing a cannonball plunge into a Bass Pro Shop Aquarium in Alabama.
Police say the man crashed his vehicle outside and then stripped down naked and jumped into the giant aquarium inside the store.
Naked Man Does Cannonball Into Bass Pro Shop Aquarium
The incident happened in front of shocked shoppers in Leeds, just outside of Birmingham, Alabama. Police say the man did a ‘cannonball’ jump into the aquarium and then spent some time under the waterfall. According to Associated Press, he temporarily left the water to yell at some police officers before jumping back into the water.
AP reports that the Alabama man eventually climbed over the aquarium and fell onto the hard concrete floor. That’s when he was apprehended by police. He now faces several charges including public lewdness, disorderly conduct, and criminal mischief, according to The Associated Press.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. “Man, it would have been wild to see this. If only it was captured on camera!” Well, if that’s what you’re thinking…I have good news! It was, indeed, captured on camera by onlookers. However, the video is very Not Safe For Work. If you’d like to watch it you can check it out here. Looks like the aquarium is not heated.
That video linked above already has over 8 million views in just two days. It’s been a while since I’ve been inside a Bass Pro Shop. I can’t remember if there are any fish in those giant aquariums. Definitely hope there isn’t! That’s another reason to never jump in without clothes on. The fish might think it’s a worm! That would be humiliating.
TMZ reports that this all happened just before closing time. Imagine being an employee there. You’re packing up, ready to go home, and then you have to deal with this guy. Check out more videos and photos on TMZ!
5 of the Craziest Cringeworthy Crimes Ever Committed
While committing crimes may seem black and white (you either broke the law or you didn’t), there are certainly some crimes that are dumber than others. Sometimes it’s the crime itself that’s wild, other times, it’s the people committing said crimes. These are 5 of the craziest, cringeworthy crimes ever committed.
Crimes can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. However, it takes a very unique individual, a case study if you will, to commit some of these outrageously dumb crimes. Years ago, these criminals would have been featured on Spike TV or one of those America’s Dumbest Criminal shows. Today, I’m not sure if those shows are around…and I’m certain Spike TV isn’t around anymore. That’s a story for another time.

Craziest Crimes
Crimes can happen for a number of reasons. They may happen out of necessity. They could also happen on accident. These crimes, however, do not fall into those categories. These crimes are different. None of these would accidentally happen. They also aren’t a matter of life or death. There’s no ethics quiz here, or any matters of ‘would you steal bread to support your family?’ These crimes, and criminals, aren’t straight up cringeworthy.
While all of these crimes are crazy and certainly cringeworthy, they also make for excellent conversation pieces. That’s why I’ve gone and found five examples of the wildest stories that Dave and Chuck the Freak have talked about and made a list highlighting the best of the best. Let’s be honest…what’s better than reading a story about one of the craziest crimes ever committed? Or, watching Dave and Chuck the Freak talk about some of the dumbest crimes ever committed? Personally, I’m going with the funny storytellers.
They add their own two cents and perspectives on these stories that nobody else could provide. Not even those talking heads on the dumbest criminal shows. Am I the only one who remembers those? I feel like they were a staple on TruTV or VH1, but now all I can find on TruTV is Impractical Jokers, which is awesome but…you get it. Let’s not delay! Here’s the list!
