Photoshops of 'Big Eyed Guy' from Russian G8 press conference

englishrussia.com — If you haven't seen it yet, there was a press conference with Putin where an audience member jumped up and tossed some leaflets about the room. When he sat back down, the guy behind him was quite incredulous and showed it magnificently with his eyes..

    • romistrub, on 10/11/2007, -4/+5Comment abuse, but c'est importante:

      Can anybody translate Putin's reaction to the crazy paper-thrower? Looked like he asked the kid for one!
      • Prodigyman, on 10/11/2007, -0/+23Pretty much first response was
        Putin said "Prefect, very good" while the dude was screaming something in German trying to get some support from German audience in the conference room
        "Young man, let me see what you are throwing" referring to papers then said the same thing in Germain to him (WTF he speaks German?)
        Following in German again "You have done what you needed to do, let me finish answering questions, this is democratically done, understand that okay? Sid down please"
        The said that the young men was from Russia and that Putin after the press conference still made time to answer any of his questions
        • JCSaint, on 10/11/2007, -0/+5"(WTF he speaks German?)"

          Yeah, he spied on Germany when he was in the KGB or something. He's completely fluent.
      • lazyrussian, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I can verify what prodigyman said is true - accurate translation :)
        Putin handled the kid/event very well.
    • swiftekho, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3I just hope no one got a paper cut.
    • CornStarch, on 10/11/2007, -3/+4The hook of the joke is the guy with the crazy eyes, so when you replace that guy with Kermit or remove his eyes it ***** up the joke. I'll give it to the guy for quantity, but not quality.
    • pinkSocks, on 10/11/2007, -3/+8I thought a lot of these were mediocre. I think these of Hillary Clinton, however, are hilarious... http://forums.fark.com/cgi/fark/comments.pl?IDLink=2712184
    • smackywentz, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2I can't believe I'm the first to say this, but...

      Look at that fine ass Russian chick!
  • scubasteve11, on 10/11/2007, -4/+79I love all the Futurama references.
  • graemee, on 10/11/2007, -5/+63LOL Mr Bean.

    OK DIGG you can do this justice, open photoshop, now!
  • stealth45, on 10/11/2007, -2/+29Brian Peppers is alive and well!
  • Lactoso, on 10/11/2007, -10/+3My favorite photochops are the vampire and the ones with all the laser sights on him. That and the very freaky way his (real life) left eye seems to track separately from his right...
    • EuphopiaB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3Actually it is natural for a person's eyes to not be aligned. If you think about it, if an object is right in front of the left eye and that is where the person is focusing, then the left eye is looking forward and the right will be looking to the left.
  • SuperWinner, on 10/11/2007, -5/+4It just gets funnier (and freakier) the more I look at it.
  • Lokix, on 10/11/2007, -8/+6Epic ***** win... right there.
  • scarfo1984, on 10/11/2007, -5/+3i think it's one of those japanese robots

  • rauz, on 10/11/2007, -5/+39Judging by the quality of these I'm suspecting most russians use Gimp. That's right, I went there.
    • Felshadow, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8I was going to say, Russians dont know how to treat their memes properly, just adding lazers doesnt count
    • unusualbob, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2except that in Soviet Russia Gimp uses you!
  • twmsdude, on 10/11/2007, -3/+2http://duggmirror.com/world_news/Photoshops_of_Big_Eyed_Guy_from_Russian_G8_press_conference/
  • Sil369, on 10/11/2007, -2/+15He's holding in one HUGE fart, I know it.
  • brindon, on 10/11/2007, -10/+92Who said the Russians aren't free? What else can you call it - other than freedom - the ability to be 5ft from the president and toss your political flyers around the room without being Tazed or tackled? My Lord, if that was here, that guy would have been drop-kicked and arrested. Kind of scary when the Russians are more free than we are.
    • michelspc, on 10/11/2007, -3/+33You know, it's sad but I was thinking the exact same thing. The minute the guy started throwing the papers I was expecting him to get taken down but nothing happened. Wow, the land of the free indeed.
    • Dundasbro, on 10/11/2007, -5/+6He probably has concrete shoes now though. There were cameras everywhere in the place, no way a guy is gonna get opressed right in front of them. I bet they got his address and paid him a visit later though.
      • callmejordy265, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2or he "accidentally slipped off his balcony"
    • finista, on 10/11/2007, -0/+24That happened in Germany.
      • Prodigyman, on 10/11/2007, -4/+1The guy throwing the papers was Russian...
      • zcreem, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4So why did he tell him to sit down in German?
      • Cunninlynguist, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4according to a post on the link, it was in Heiligendamm, which is in Germany, supposedly the guy that is throwing the leaflets said: "Putin ist ein schwein." (Putin is a pig/evil), so that's why he replied in german.
    • EochaidRiata, on 10/11/2007, -0/+12There is no press in Russia any more. This was in Europe.

    • WilliamDavis, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1Even if it were in Russia, I don't really see your point. Is that freedom to you? Being able to throw papers while near your "leader?" Wooo. I long for the day.
    • Misos, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2No, in Russia you will end-up like Alexander Litvinenko.

      http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Litvinenko
      • trovoltex, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Wrong, in UK you will end-up like this. And if you worked for KGB before and betrayed them.
      • p1k3y, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0are u so stupid? kgb(FSB) has famous lab where they make new types of poison which are extremly hard to detect. why would they use a ***** radioactive polonium which leaves traces everywhere? so much attention and straight accusition of putin leads me to belive that was set up of berezovsky.
    • vertinox, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Nah. Nothing says "Gotcha!" than a million dollars worth of polonium in the belly. I mean... The only way to do that with a tackle is to buy a dimaond encrusted baton and break it over his head.
    • rrobster, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2In soviet Russia, papers throw YOU!
  • HateMoNGeR, on 10/11/2007, -4/+27***** hilarious... in the united states this guy would have been tackled and taken to jail
    • Cunninlynguist, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9if it happened in russia, he probably would've been even worse off than in the US
    • vertinox, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Good thing Germany respects their constitution.
  • Bilbobaggins, on 10/11/2007, -4/+3weird, the guy above you said the exact same thing.
    • cypher543, on 10/11/2007, -0/+9Weird... I wonder what this "Reply" button is for...
  • mrdorian, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1real funny ***** !!
  • snoolyagain, on 10/11/2007, -3/+3much entertaining, the collection of creative mods. good point about the BushCo police state re: expression within 100 miles of the US President. thing I most noted was how intensely angry flier-man/boy looked. he was positively clinching his jaw. Oh I remember when I had that, before the university debt, before fearing for my job.

    in the US he'd be on a no fly list for the rest of his life.

  • Sabretou, on 10/11/2007, -10/+3Wot? No Soviet Russia jokes?

    "In America, you photoshop big-eyed guys. In Soviet Russia, big-eyed guys photoshop you!!"
    • Theisos, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2In America - you post stupid comments. In Soviet Russia - stupid comments...errrmm...
  • Ace75, on 10/11/2007, -1/+19@romistrub - "Can anybody translate Putin's reaction to the crazy paper-thrower?"

    Putin's reaction: (which he spoke in German - in response to the paper-boy's German remark)

    “Young man, give me what you have thrown. Ok? You have done, what you wanted to do. Now leave us in peace. Give me time to answer this. Ok? Understood? Is that democratic? Now sit down!” (translation taken from comments on the original page)
    • kennon, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4Putin speaks pretty good German.

      Maybe it was because he was a KGB agent stationed in Dresden (Germany) from 1985-1990.

  • Bolarg, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6On the video with Putin it sounds like he says something about a "dumb ***** teachers' kid."
  • Cunninlynguist, on 10/11/2007, -3/+6check out the video of Choomuhzeek, it's a similar premise. He pops up in the back while an industrial worker is being interviewed. friggin hilarious:
