Mexican Batman, Britain’s Downfall, Mr Bean’s Comeback & Jimmy Carr - Rabbit Hole #5 - #1143

**Chris Williamson** (0:00)
A vigilante known as the Batman of Lagos de Moreno has gone viral after catching alleged motorcycle thieves and duct-taking them to lampposts across Lagos de Moreno in Jalisco. That at least five suspected thieves have been found restrained to polls over the past 10 days, some with their mouths taped and signs labeling them as thieves. Authorities are investigating and say those found tied up are being treated as victims. Police have added the vigilante to a wanted list and are also looking into whether multiple people are behind the incident. We've got some pictures of what these people look like. It's like the guy's a real life Mexican Batman that appears to be getting motorcycle thieves and duct tape. People are also calling him Duct Tape Man.

**Jimmy Carr** (0:41)
Oh, wow.

**Chris Williamson** (0:42)
But he's really doing it.

**Jimmy Carr** (0:43)
Oh, that is, I mean, that's a, yeah, okay, sorry. So you hear duct tape and you think, I could get myself out of duct tape.

**Chris Williamson** (0:49)
No.

**Jimmy Carr** (0:49)
That is okay.
I notice he's left the motorcycle with them. That seems.

**Chris Williamson** (0:54)
There's the evidence.

**Jimmy Carr** (0:55)
That seems bad because someone's going to cut them free and they're going to disappear on the motorcycle.

**Chris Williamson** (0:59)
There it is. Duct tape man.

**Jimmy Carr** (1:01)
Okay. That seems, that's kind of great because normally if you see a story about crime in Mexico, you go, oh, this is going to be, this is going to be eye bleach.

**Chris Williamson** (1:10)
This is the, this is a very fluffy way to deal with crime in Mexico, it seems.

**Harry Dry** (1:14)
How has he taken down two in one?

**Chris Williamson** (1:16)
I mean, I mean, they don't look particularly physically intimidating.

**Jimmy Carr** (1:20)
They look 14 and terrified.

**Chris Williamson** (1:23)
Yeah.

**Jimmy Carr** (1:24)
I mean, it's, yeah. Don't steal motorcycles. There's a message there.

**Chris Williamson** (1:27)
You would be too, if you'd been taped to a lamp post.

**Jimmy Carr** (1:29)
The rise and fall of civilizations and the rise. Duct tape man brings back law and order.

**Chris Williamson** (1:34)
That's true. Are we talking about strong may make good times? That is the strong man that uses duct tape.

**Jimmy Carr** (1:40)
There was the case about seven months ago in the UK, where a guy purposely left his bike, I think outside of the HMP in London, where all the police are based, and put like a Apple air tag on it, and it got lost. He calls up the police and he's like, we have the air tag, I have the address, there's nothing we can do.
There's nothing we can do. All of a sudden, he then takes it to the telegraph, the Times, it becomes a huge story, and then the police go, we're looking into it. Even when you have the GPS coordinates, they don't take it seriously. Yeah. I think it's a crime I could get behind though. The vigilante, it's nice, you don't hear a lot about it these days.

**Harry Dry** (2:17)
What was the last crime you committed?

**Jimmy Carr** (2:21)
I would say probably some sort of tax avoidance was the last big one.
When that whole thing happened, this is years ago now, 12, 13 years ago, when it was all going on, I was front of the papers and the Prime Minister was David Cameron at the time. He broke off from the G20 summit to comment on my personal tax abeyors. That is a red flag. But it was all going on. I never once mentioned the millions that I've given to charity because I thought, at this point, lying is not going to help.

**Chris Williamson** (2:54)
Because evasion is allowed, but avoidance is not.

**Jimmy Carr** (2:57)
No, avoidance is allowed. Evasion, there's a big difference. About 18 months in prison.

**Harry Dry** (3:00)
Right.

**Jimmy Carr** (3:01)
Or if you ask Gary Stevenson, then there's a big difference.

**Harry Dry** (3:03)
What was the document? You watched the new-

**Jimmy Carr** (3:04)
Have you watched Gary Stevenson's new documentary? No. Go on. What's the documentary? I think he's wonderful.
I think he's the best-

**Harry Dry** (3:10)
I heard you laughing while you were watching it last night.

**Jimmy Carr** (3:13)
I think he's the best economist of our times. When the Soviet Great Britain becomes, and you guys are fighting over a little bit of bread, me and Gary will throw you a strip. I don't want to say anything bad about Gary at all.

**Harry Dry** (3:25)
Right.

**Chris Williamson** (3:25)
Because when the gulags come, Christopher, I'm going to be eating bread. This is the same as being kind to your AI in case an AI overlord dies.
