Arizona Fan In Blazer Takes Many Pepper Balls To The Chest From Riot Police Without Flinching, He’s The Terminator

Number one seed Arizona fell to two-seeded Wisconsin Saturday night in the Elite Eight round of the NCAA tournament. To express their displeasure for the heartbreaking overtime loss, Arizona students and fans raucously took to the streets of Tucson because that’s what they do nowadays, win or lose. The scene got out of hand and riot police were brought in to control the crowd.

One particular U of A fan put on quite the spectacle. Dubbed “The Terminator of Tucson” by Deadspin, a bearded man in a navy blazer, Texas flag shorts, and nighttime sunglasses took numerous crowd-controlling pepper balls to the chest and stomach without even flinching. Like BBs from a BB gun attempting to stop an approaching tank in its tracks, the pepper balls proved completely useless against the crazed man. One after another…thump…thump…thump, they bounced off of his torso as he slowly walked toward the officers with arms outstretched.

Watch the incredible video:

Here’s a good look at the blazered lunatic:

See this face? This is the face of a man with nothing to lose.

    Not sure what kind of load they’re shooting, but they’re using fairly standard paintball guns to do it. Looks like Tippmann 98s to me.

      That was borderline police brutality. They could have just tasered him instead he got punched by the cop.

        That has to be police brutality. The guy was never resisting and like 10 cops jump him in full riot gear…..Also in another angle a cop throws a punch at the guy.
