Would-be Seattle ninja impaled on fence

SEATTLE - Seattle police say a man who thought he was ninja was impaled on a metal fence when he tried to leap over it. An officer who was looking for an assault victim nearby Monday night heard the man screaming for help. Police supported him to prevent further injuries until medics arrived and took him to a hospital, where he was in serious condition in intensive care on Tuesday.

Police spokeswoman Renee Witt wrote in a department Web site posting that officers thought the man might have been involved in the reported assault, but he insisted he was just a ninja trying to clear a 4- to 5-foot-tall fence.

Witt says the man was "overconfident in his abilities," and that alcohol likely played a role.

His name was not released.

Wow, this is funny and not funny at the same time.

This happens when a drunk person watches the Ninja Assassin trailer.

Oh wow. so he's alive?
At least he wasnt dumb enough to get himself killed, but still pretty dumb

Ninja Assassin. Most redundant movie title ever.

Basically this Scenario is this person is a warrior fanatic. when he saw the Trailer, (i'm guessing) he figured that if Hollywood can do it, so can he. So after some round at the pub he decides he can jump a fence, a fence with the spike pillar thing, the kind we see when people get impaled in movies.

and when he is rescued he tells the cops that he is a Ninja trying to jump a fence.

Fail much?

LOL wat a fail

this is like watching the guy dressed as sasuke getting arrested.

It's more like, someone was watching a little too much G4 and thought he was good enough to be on the ninja show, but he decided a few beers would be his popeye'd spinach.
