Yikes! Thor is ALIVE!!

Jan 01, 2009


Times of the Internet had the story, it's pretty funny actually.

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.

I bet the reason why the burglar ran away wasn't because the dude was dressed in a Thor costume, but because he was caught in the act. Its a good story anyways, though.
