Man in Thor costume scares off burglar

EDINBURGH, Scotland, Jan. 1 (UPI) -- A man who dressed as the Norse god Thor for a costume party in Scotland said he returned home and scared off a burglar who had entered his house.

Torvald Alexander, 38, a construction firm manager who stands at 6 feet tall, said he ran after the burglar with his red cape and silver-winged helmet still in place, making for an intimidating sight, The Daily Telegraph reported Thursday.

"As soon as he saw me his eyes went wide with terror," Alexander said of the burglar. "He looked like he had had a few drinks and decided to do a late night break in, but he hadn't counted on the God of Thunder living here."

"I had just got back from a fancy dress New Year's party and because I have a Norwegian name I decided to go as Thor," he said.

Alexander said the burglar did not have time to steal anything from the house and fled from a ground floor window without his shoes. He said the shoes will be turned over to police to help them attempt to identify a suspect.

Now, what bothers me is not the fact that guy was dressed up as Thor (I don't see him going as Durkon with 6 feet), but the fact the burglar had taken his shoes off.

The guy wen't to a dress party, that's understandable.

But seriously, you got a point... why did he take his shoes off? I don't know. We probably never will.

The only thing that can make this thread more annoying is a quote pyramid.
