Kasparov Attacked by Flying Penis-Copter

Post by dr. what »

Can't make this up...
Gary Kasparov might not have beaten the chess computer Deep Blue , but he stood firm against Deep Throat. The video shows the Grandmaster being attacked by a flying Penis-copter whilst speaking at a Russian event. We're betting that the security guard who smacks the floating genitalia out of the air is a crack volleyball player; check out the whack he gives it.

Not only is this an impressive feat of DIY toy-modding and media-hacking, it also represents -- to the best of our knowledge -- the first time that a flying penis has ever disrupted a press conference in the real world. In Second Life, it's old hat by now: Last year, SL real estate entrepreneur Anshe Chung had a public interview in the virtual world interrupted by a parade of flying phalluses.

The best part, though, must be Kasparov's reaction. You can see a tiny smile flash across his poker face when he sees the chopper coming towards him. If we have any Russian speakers out there, tell us what Kasparov says afterwards.
See the youtube video here...

Here's a video which shows there were actually two dongcopters launched.

Quoting from comments made elsewhere on this.
After the security guard swatted it to the ground, Kasparov says, "I think we have to be thankful for the opposition's demonstration of the level of discourse we need to anticipate. Also, apparently most of their arguments are located beneath the belt." Someone in the audience shouts, "Finally the political power shows its face!" Kasparov quickly replies, "Well, if that's its face..." to laughter from the audience.

Gods, American politics is so boring. If someone deployed peniscopters against any of our candidates, it would be a terrorist attack and you'd have a billion talking heads screaming about it, instead of laughing. Why can't we have any parliamentary spectacle or cardboard cut outs mocking our opponents or peniscopters? :?

Gimme an off-the-shelf radio control mini-copter and ten minutes with some foam rubber and a sharp knife.

Seriously, not that hard.

It has two props and between that and the way it flies I'd guess it IS an off-the-shelf RC model. Price between $20-180 American all included (well, it doesn't include a penis-fuselage, but it does have everything else) depending on the quality involved. The Other Half has 3 or 4 in his workroom right now of various sizes.

Yeah, it looks like they took the rotor out of an RC copter and put it in a dildo. Really, it could probably be improved by proper weighting of the aeriel penis and possibly a tail rotor mount betwixt the testicles.

That...is surreal, but awesome.

Given that it was done in a room where nearly everyone was holding a complicated device of some kind, that'll probably make it even harder to figure out exactly who was controlling the things!

Though to be fair, I don't think unleashing a mechanical flying dick is illegal in Russia. :lol:

I swear, baby, this hasn't happened before!
"The 4th Earl of Hereford led the fight on the bridge, but he and his men were caught in the arrow fire. Then one of de Harclay's pikemen, concealed beneath the bridge, thrust upwards between the planks and skewered the Earl of Hereford through the anus, twisting the head of the iron pike into his intestines. His dying screams turned the advance into a panic."'

The dual rotor system makes a tail rotor redundant and unnecessary - although the weight probably could have been balanced better.

Kasparov is not a candidate or anywhere an important political figure, he's a fringe loon and this is exactly why such pranks are possible. Do you believe honestly this could be pulled against any of the actual presidential candidates? :lol: I think the guy who made it would be in a heapload of trouble would he do it against Zhirinovsky, Medvevev, Zyuganov or Bogdanov, and the presidential debate security would've found him and kicked his ass (literally).

That's like if someone did the same to, say, a Green Party candidate for the US, to roughly understand the level of obscurity and fringe-ness.

It struck me this morning that someone needs to take the video in question and re-dub it with Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries. Just think of it...
