4. The video has a disclaimer?
<You, the viewer of the preceeding are hereby advised that the video does not depict a real event. It is intended for the sole, limited and express purpose of entertainment and to induce you, the viewer of the video, to think critically about freedom of expression and speech and the government’s responses to the same.>

I didn't see it.

2. Nope. The guy himself says it was a hoax right on the website.

It fooled me when I saw it, though.

10. Well, there's his 15 minutes of fame gone
A faint short-lived blip on the socio-cultural radar screen...

Lesson? Beware of things too good to be true - they probably aren't.

13. He may have jumped the shark with this one.
No one's going to take him seriously now.

15. In terms of making actual news that is
I did a little research on him (yes, I'd heard OF him before), he seems to like being some kind of trendsetter/maverick.

But as for making a real, significant event, this will damage him.

IMHO.

16. I think you're just disappointed that it's not real
I can't imagine Ecko cares about your criteria for "making real news." He does what he does, and that's that. "Damage" him? Whatever, man.

11. There is NO WAY on Earth that is real.
In fact, it's irresponsible. Some goofy kid might try something like that, and walk right into a Shoot To Kill area.


STUPID!
