    A nude tourist running into traffic and yelling he is “king of the world” was tased on Big Coppitt Key (Florida) and jailed early Sunday morning.

    Richard Gervasi, 43, of Phoenixville, Pa., reportedly also said he is “made of steel” while he was taken into custody. He reportedly had been drinking and took LSD. He was charged with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest.

    Nothing says "I'm king of the world" more than running into traffic with no clothes on.

    how harmful can one crazy naked guy be, surely there was no need to tase him, just more officers to restrain him, if you were a guy would you rather be tased or kicked in the balls :P

    It would have been better if they said that "He was fully charged with disturbing the peace and resisting arrest".

    Bet he was glad he wasn't really made of steel when they tased him.

    I took it as positive! Fair play to him. Too many hosts are afraid to say anything these days!

    would you rather tackle a naked guy to the ground or tase him without any naked man contact?

    Theres lots of ways to enjoy your nakedness in peace. Running through traffic isnt one of them.
