There was a bit of excitement in the usually stodgy Imperial Palace in Tokyo: a fat and naked tourist went for a skinny dip in the palace moat!
The man, believed to be in his 40s, jumped into the moat and started throwing rocks and splashing two policemen.
Police subsequently chased him in a rowing boat, a scene captured by local TV footage.
Eventually, the man got out of the water and climbed up the 26ft stone wall of the palace - only to find police waiting for him.
And thanks to YouTube, we can now see the video clip (don't worry, the offending ... uh, bits are obscured)
I could've got him out using a single crocodile
DOJ: I think they just didn't want to touch him. :)
Not that there's never been a Japanese tourist whose done something embarrassing, but never on this scale.
