How long before the copycats copy the "Sneaks of theme park video" by doing it at WDW?

No, but they DO care about image. And if this guy gets banned and then releases a "here's how I made the video without actually breaking any of the rules", that could cause a backlash (and possibly a lawsuit).

I highly doubt it. That video is getting no sympathy from anyone, real or not.
How well did it work out for the handicap guy who made the meth lab joke? Hes all but forgotten.

No remotely funny, or remotely life hacks just blatant theft

 

[SyracuseDisneyFan]

I don't know.

I see the video as entertainment, not a how-to. It wasn't a serious attempt to make a how-to video as they were joking and having fun with it all the way through.

That is exactly what they were doing, entertaining.

Yep. Theft is so funny. There is nothing serious about it at all...

You don't need a stroller to get into the park for free. I've seen people just open the gate and walk in. I have a feeling the stroller was empty when he went in though.

Theft can be very funny, whether it be stupid criminal stories or funny and amusing theft scenarios. No one came out to criticize the Home Alone movie franchise for glamorizing burglary. This is obviously entertainment designed to appear very real. It obviously was successful in fooling a few people.

Yeah. Intentially making a video to look like you're stealing and showing people how to steal is a load of laughs as well. What was I thinking!?!

I'm not sure basing comedy entertainment on theft is nothing new.

What you're showing is a movie. That's not the same.

Anyways, I understand that society glorifies these types of videos, especially on you tube. But that doesn't mean I'm gonna go along with it.

I think everytime something like this pops up, im just gonna say "man you all thought this was funny but when ATW does something he should be banned for life like omg". The crime may not be the same but the double standards sure are xD.

Well with reality tv and YouTube the way our society delivers entertainment has just changed.

If all Disney does is trespass him, what possible grounds would he have for a lawsuit?

Not that I see their trespassing him, though. From Disney's perspective, they're better off not potentially drawing more attention to this guy.

I'm not really sure how they could trespass him. They don't even know his name. My understanding has always been that the person has to be on their property to initiate the trespass warning. He has to be identified and formally given notice.

While Disney's normal procedure is to serve the notice in person and to have the person sign receipt and understanding while they're still on property, I believe the laws of both Florida and California allow Disney to serve the notice by certified mail.

Oh, and the guy's name is Mike Capes.

Except that you don't have any evidence that a theft actually occurred, making any "theft" mere speculation at best. All you see here is the final cut.

Have you ever turned on a TV? I'm thinking no.

The "theft" implied here is park admission that wasn't paid for. You don't have to physically steal something that's monetary for it to be considered stolen.
