Streaking The World

The following is news taken from BBC.com:

Geordie Brynn Reed streaked in front of the Queen’s Rolls Royce on her Jubilee visit to Newcastle in May 2002.

Brynn says, “I just wondered what it felt like really… It’s also something to tell the grandchildren, and that appealed to me.”

“I was planning to run alongside the Queen’s car for the entire journey until I got arrested, but unfortunately I misjudged the timing.”

“I knew I was going to get caught but it’s just a practical joke at the end of the day. I was pretty sure that was the way it would be taken.”

“I certainly wasn’t out to upset the Queen. I thought I might have got a smirk or reaction out of her, but she was very professional and kept a straight face.”

Sadly, Brynn’s employers didn’t think it was quite so funny, and he was fired from his five week-old job. “I don’t think they liked the headline ‘the naked civil servant’.”
