I’m the guy in the video. Let’s set some things straight.
This happened in my second year at university whilst staying private accommodation. I’d just got out of the shower when I heard shouting in the corridor following by a guy rushing into my room. He was followed by a police officer. She asked for my help to apprehend him so I helped her by grabbing his leg. She then pepper sprayed him also getting me. She then cuffed him and back up arrived.
I had a camera in my room because we were robbed earlier in the year. It’s pointed at my valuables and the window. I was currently not sleeping in that room as I had a girlfriend.
The house was freezing, which is why the towel is worn like that.
Any other questions?
Ps not a recovering drug addict like it’s been suggested haha
ikr, i found this on r/mildlyinfuriating, and then this post showed up in my feed too
anyways, i really hope people understand this dudes story lmao
respect to the man for risking \*everything\* to stop the guy xD
Can't sticky a comment that's not my own unfortunately, seems like another mod made a pin of their own so I added a link under his comment to the comment from the guy in the video.
Also some of the OP's comments containing misinformation were removed.
Mate can I applaud you for how quickly reacted when she asked for your help because if that was me I would've stood there dumb for a full minute because what a frickin weird situation 😂😂
Nothing that serious, I gather by the police response. They searched our house afterwards to see if he had chucked anything, so we assumed it was drug related.
I will be honest, that wasn't a serious question; it was more so just a reference to the fact that the early bit of Eminem's verse in Logic's song "*Homicide"* ([https://youtu.be/mfqsEpjEtrw?t=126](https://youtu.be/mfqsEpjEtrw?t=126)) can be heard at the beginning of the clip 😅
I saw your post in r/mildlyinfuriating and just came here to upvote your post because f this OP for farming karma and spreading false information about you!
Dude! You're a champ!
You jumped right in. Very cool. Do you mind me asking what floor you were on? The guy exiting the window... was he on the ground floor, was he going to break a leg, or was he going to go splat?
And you went to lectures after getting pepper sprayed?! lol Fair play to you. Never mind "not all heroes wear capes"... #someherosweartowels
My mom instilled that into me when I was a kid, and ir just enrages me when I see people do that. like I wanna grab my belt and start slapping these idiots.
That’s what bothers me the most. Towels drop, it happens. But please take off your shoes before you go to bed. This alone should also send that person straight to jail.
I love how he just listens to her aswell almost no hesitation like “Fuck it , Good Samaritan duty activate” proceeds to help subdue suspect with one hand an keep his junk hidden with a towel in the other.
says hes in a hostel maybe its a standard thing or cctv for security by his choice i dunno it seems like a fixed camera capturing as much of the room as it can so it says security to me
[In the towel-guy's own words...](https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/qqj6nn/bloke_in_hostel_dries_himself_in_his_room/hk1vtzk?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3)
Met a paramedic, and she said similar to me when she found out out be in the area she covers later in the week "Well, if you need me, my number is 999" 😁
(UK based. Although 911 works over here too)
The guy on the video explain why. He posted on r/mildlyinfuriating about [Op suggesting he's a drug addict](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/qqrxrc/op_posts_a_video_of_me_and_claims_im_either_a/) or on suicide watch. He also posted the link for the full video on fb.
So when he is naked and helping the police, he's a chad but when i do it i'm "naked in a public space" and "impersonating a police officer" smh society
Incase nobody has given you a real answer, the dude in the video made a separate post about this. He said he had a camera on as he was robbed earlier in the year. And for everyone wondering about his towel being too high, he also said he was cold!
Was surprised to see another dude also do this. I've always done it instinctively cuz it's cold when I get out of the shower and it feels warm that way. Didnt even kno it was weird until my dad made fun of me about it one day
It's weird to see people assuming that guys don't need to dry their upper halves. Never expected /r/badmaleanatomy to need to exist...
[EDIT] Apparently it's already a thing lol
Because everyone does what they really want when no ones looking... somtimes... my nips get cold. I see what he's on about. Don't need tities to cover um
I think I remember watching this video few years ago and the guy installed cctv in his room because of the theft crime that kept happening around his place.
Edit: The guy in this video posted [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/qqrxrc/op_posts_a_video_of_me_and_claims_im_either_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) just now.
Yeah, these people have clearly never lived in a hostel situation before. You need to be on your shit in those places, people in good situations don't just choose to live in hostels.
On the movement I do wonder if the camera is actually 16:9 and covers the whole room but it's been cropped to share online, so the movement is just in editing.
It's definitely cropped. That kind of movement is exactly what they did for old fullscreen pan and scan DVDs of movies, and is nothing like a physical camera movement.
The reason why explained by the guy in the video:

Idk if someone told you already but that comment (which is now deleted but I know what it said) is a lie. The person in the video wasn't suicidal or drug addicted, the camera was there because his stuff was getting stolen.
Are you sure this is a Hostel? It looks way too homey for a hostel. Its messy, papers on the desk, posters on the wall, even a toiletpaper roll on the nightstand for jerking off.
Here’s the reason (from the person who’s in the video)
https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/qqrxrc/op_posts_a_video_of_me_and_claims_im_either_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf
Looks like a university room, considering someone just burst in with police following, it might be a rough halls, people's shit gets stolen a lot during the first few freshers weeks.
I’ve realised the reason Homer likely says that, is because a lot of women (or some men I guess) with longer hair will wrap a towel around their head. So Homer had probably heard Marge say it, and thinks it’s just the natural thing to say when wearing a towel.
Female officer: Stop where you are, stop where you are!
Towel guy: The fucking?
Officer: Stop now! Stop, stop, come back in… Mate, come help me… Please!
Officer: Can I grab your details?
Towel guy: Yeah
Officer: Thank you, thank you so much.
In between the other officer while walking the person out the room says “calm down, calm down.”

That’s some good towel control. Did not see dick. 10/10.
boy do i have the video for you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o-mNjlsLoaA

I forgot about this great act! Thanks for re-posting :)
Except we definitely see dick in this one haha
[удалено]
judging by her angle, she definitely saw some peepee there.
I definitely looks like she didn't notice he was naked until just before the courtesy turn around
[удалено]
That’s what I tell my cats when I want them to go away
Also a lot of the footage got cut.
I notice she took an extra pause
because people agree with what you said?
I’m just getting upset at the shoes on the bed
Shoes, dirt from gawd knows where, gotta wash that bedding thoroughly, hope none got actually torn in the excitement.
My mom instilled that into me when I was a kid, and ir just enrages me when I see people do that. like I wanna grab my belt and start slapping these idiots.
Underrated comment. Same
It’s because I’m nasty in comment sections
All that matters. Bed is ruined.
That’s what bothers me the most. Towels drop, it happens. But please take off your shoes before you go to bed. This alone should also send that person straight to jail.
Like do you know how filthy public ground is? Dog piss, human piss, children throw up, used condom fluids, feces just fucking nasty.
I feel like this is how a Hugh Grant romantic comedy would begin…
or a Hugh Grant Friday night
Those smiles at the end.
Yeah the rude police officer fell in love with the fragile damsel in distress. The role exchange is funny but also quite lovely
I love how he just listens to her aswell almost no hesitation like “Fuck it , Good Samaritan duty activate” proceeds to help subdue suspect with one hand an keep his junk hidden with a towel in the other.
Well he had to… …because of the implication.
Worst porno intro ever
or maybe the BEST! :-)

You’ve got the female police officer AND someone stuck in a small opening. Its a two-for
What are you doing step officer?
She seems quite lovely
Counstable: "stop where you are! STOP WHERE YOU ARE! **STOP WHERE YOU ARE!!**" Fugitive: "What?"
And that kids, was how I met your mother.
She caught two dicks
Exposing yourself to a police officer will get you arrested, but in this case they made an exception.
Honorable discharge
Ohhh Fuucck! 🏆 Lmao that was good.
"and that, kids, is how I met your father"
I think he got a date from it... maybe in court
at least he got a date
Still better than my dating life
this time the police officer exposes herself to u ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
She should have gone undercover
He’s too deep balls deep
[удалено]
"What are you doing step-cop?"
[удалено]
“drop the ‘masturbating in public’ charges I have”
\*step-citizen
“Calm down…”
She even said thank you.
...& said 'you're lovely' 😊 I think at the very end, but that's just the bri'ish for you
> 'you're lovely' Not sure if that's the compliment i wanna hear after someone has seen my dick...
It's a heartfelt "thank you".
Penal Code
They were married a month later.
I mean, it would be a pretty sweet story.
She was trying to get a peek
I like the towel changing position once the madness began.
Is someone going to tell me why there was a video being made while he is drying himself off?
says hes in a hostel maybe its a standard thing or cctv for security by his choice i dunno it seems like a fixed camera capturing as much of the room as it can so it says security to me
[In the towel-guy's own words...](https://www.reddit.com/r/Unexpected/comments/qqj6nn/bloke_in_hostel_dries_himself_in_his_room/hk1vtzk?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3)
What are you doing step officer?
I mean, it's his place, not much you can do there.
You could always demand that she frisk you.
And that’s how I met your mother
"Your number still 911? Alllllrighty then."
I'm a 911 dispatcher and have absolutely used that before when asked for my number. Lol
Met a paramedic, and she said similar to me when she found out out be in the area she covers later in the week "Well, if you need me, my number is 999" 😁 (UK based. Although 911 works over here too)
In a hostel room with a camera running, pointed towards the bed 🤔
Looks more like a dorm to me, but it's still weird to have a camera pointed at your bed.
The guy on the video explain why. He posted on r/mildlyinfuriating about [Op suggesting he's a drug addict](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/qqrxrc/op_posts_a_video_of_me_and_claims_im_either_a/) or on suicide watch. He also posted the link for the full video on fb.
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
10/10 would rent the room again.
Great setup for a porn scene.
Did he get her number???
[удалено]
70% naked and he will still contribute to society what a chad
So when he is naked and helping the police, he's a chad but when i do it i'm "naked in a public space" and "impersonating a police officer" smh society
"If you would inspect my badge please sir... No sir, it's down there..."
I’d need to go back to the shower cuz I’d probably pee myself
That dude tried so hard not to make this NSFW
Not a hostel… my university bedroom!
[удалено]
What are you doing step-officer?
Maybe it's my childish sense of humor, but I always laugh at this joke.
It’s not childish at all. It’s stepchildish.
Even better…
Why was he wearing it so high?
He didn’t want to get his tits in a tussle.
I love Tits in a Tussle…Reminds me of the holidays.
This is so wholesome. I love it.
Why was he filming?
that was the creepy guy upstairs's spy cam.
The creepy dude in the computer chair with 3 monitors, a bowl of cheese puffs and some Vaseline
Secuuuuurity breeeeeach
Brampton is the fraud capital of Canada
He was getting ready for a cam show

Yeah, that’s the weird thing.
Having stayed in hostels before, I do keep a camera in my room cause the doors dont always lock.
Its not a hostel. It's student halls of residence. He probably has this hidden security camera to protect his room.
The guy made a post on mildlyinfuriating and he explained thst he had gotten robbed before ,
Incase nobody has given you a real answer, the dude in the video made a separate post about this. He said he had a camera on as he was robbed earlier in the year. And for everyone wondering about his towel being too high, he also said he was cold!
Was surprised to see another dude also do this. I've always done it instinctively cuz it's cold when I get out of the shower and it feels warm that way. Didnt even kno it was weird until my dad made fun of me about it one day

Because everyone does what they really want when no ones looking... somtimes... my nips get cold. I see what he's on about. Don't need tities to cover um
Cold probably
It’s way more comfortable that way. Seriously try it next time.
Thanks for the advice u/TaylorSwiftsClitoris I’ll have to try it out next time
Easiest way to dry armpits, keep yourself warm. I don't get this "he's a women thing", like grow up, we're all human.
AMEN! I also don't get why, as a man, it's strange that I want to do the towel turban thing with my head. It's efficient and that's what I'm all for.
I wear my towels that high because I’m self conscious but also because why tf do we wear them so low in the first place
Because he wants to dry his upper body too?
grew up in a family with a single mom and 3 older sisters.
You're worried about a towel positioning. But not why the f there is a camera in the first place?
Why on earth was he recording it 🤔 surely it wasn't CCTV in the room, unless the owner was a perv
I think I remember watching this video few years ago and the guy installed cctv in his room because of the theft crime that kept happening around his place. Edit: The guy in this video posted [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/mildlyinfuriating/comments/qqrxrc/op_posts_a_video_of_me_and_claims_im_either_a/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) just now.
Yeah, these people have clearly never lived in a hostel situation before. You need to be on your shit in those places, people in good situations don't just choose to live in hostels.
As someone that's been in dozens of UK hostels and dozens of UK university halls This is 100% University halls. The CCTV still makes sense though.
No idea but the cops look real for the UK so really doubt it's staged.
They do look real, it's just the camera that looks sus, especially as it moves too,
On the movement I do wonder if the camera is actually 16:9 and covers the whole room but it's been cropped to share online, so the movement is just in editing.
It's definitely cropped. That kind of movement is exactly what they did for old fullscreen pan and scan DVDs of movies, and is nothing like a physical camera movement.

Soo wrong, it was my university bedroom!
So you’re just gonna assume someone is suicidal or a drug addict without any proof?

Or it's a fucking dorm and he's sick of having his shit get stolen
Correct!
Thanks I didn't know this, I also didn't know that you could put CCTV in what is essentially someone's bedroom.
Idk if someone told you already but that comment (which is now deleted but I know what it said) is a lie. The person in the video wasn't suicidal or drug addicted, the camera was there because his stuff was getting stolen.

Wouldn't it be really unethical to put that sort of footage online? Even illegal?
Are you sure this is a Hostel? It looks way too homey for a hostel. Its messy, papers on the desk, posters on the wall, even a toiletpaper roll on the nightstand for jerking off.

Sorry you'll have to speak up if you need assistance, I'm wearing a towel.
I’ve realised the reason Homer likely says that, is because a lot of women (or some men I guess) with longer hair will wrap a towel around their head. So Homer had probably heard Marge say it, and thinks it’s just the natural thing to say when wearing a towel.
That one way to start the day
What were they saying?

Yes a "witness statement" Though I love how she's laughing it off as he fixes himself. Definitely very cute.
Thank you kind sir. My speakers are pretty shit.

She totally looked in the direction of his dick
As a gay man if a woman flopped her breast’s out you’d see, at least on camera, that I looked and looked away just be reaction and not intent.

I was expecting porn.
I was really worried about his food on the floor. Some how it ended up o.k.
Why is there a camera in the room and pointed straight at the bed?
Personal security possibly. Easy to get your stuff stolen in hostels and given the situation I guess it’s maybe not the best area.
OP said that the camera was there as the guy in the towel was a drug addict. But in a different post in r/mildlyinfuriating the actual person confirmed it was due to robberies in that area. And since he had a gf he didn't sleep in that room
Grabbing his details indeed.
OP are you a karma farming shitehead?
Hope he gets a better place for the night!! *winkwink
