The 'Barefoot Bandit' (Colton Harris-Moore) Back on U.S. Soil!

Posted by Travis Michael Keller on July 30, 2010 at 6:32 am


To me, this kid is proof that these younger generations aren’t total bullshit and do have a few things up their sleeves. In my eyes, Colton Harris-Moore is a modern day folk hero. His story is similar to “Catch Me If You Can”, but in my opinion it’s even crazier considering all of today’s technology he seemed to have eluded for so long. Why would the “news” rather talk about Lindsay Lohan and LeBron James over the Barefoot Bandit? I feel like I was born at the wrong time or as Joe would say… maybe not at all. Anyways, the Barefoot Bandit was born the year punk broke (1991) and he just made tons of cops and several governments look like utter retards. He’s either gonna get hung or he’s gonna get the best government job catching bad guys almost as smart as him ala “Catch Me If You Can”. That’s after they make his movie… damn it’s gonna be a good movie if they don’t fuck it up.

His wikipedia says: “He is suspected in the theft of at least five small aircraft, a boat and two cars, and in the burglaries of at least 100 private residences in various locations around the Pacific Northwest of the United States and Canada. He fled to the Bahamas on July 4, 2010, allegedly in a plane stolen from Indiana.[9] He was indicted on July 6 by a U.S. Federal Court in Seattle, Washington on charges of transporting another stolen aircraft in that state. Harris-Moore was arrested in Harbour Island, Bahamas on July 11, after police shot out the engine of the boat he was attempting to flee in.[4] Two days later, he was deported from Nassau, Bahamas to Miami, Florida and transferred on July 21 to SeaTac, Washington where he is awaiting trial.[8]  He became known as the “Barefoot Bandit” or “Barefoot Burglar” by reportedly committing some of his crimes barefoot, once leaving behind a chalk footprint. Despite the widely-reported nicknames, officials said that he more often wore shoes.[2]”

But I’m no Anderson Cooper (fuck, I’m not even close to a Gideon Yago) so even if I try and give you the facts correctly… I’m gonna fuck em up. It’s called Google it bitch! Now check out this new item… if you find other videos on Colton… better ones or even killer interviews with Colton, please post em here below. I wanna read, see and hear as much about this kid as I can. He’s fascinating to me. If I wasn’t so tired I’d post “Song To Woody” by Bob Dylan below.

Proactive new me.

    good article, hopefuly the kid’s popularity spares him a life of ass rape in prison. I don’t see him defending his fruit cocktail too well.

  • Alan Tofighi

    Damn, i’m bummed that were almost the same age, he set the bar way too high. Kudos.

  • http://twitter.com/toweleeeie Towelie

    I’d hate to explain to Colton that the next twenty years are the hardest and that shit was easy.

    I don’t want to be Debbie Downer but it’s all about those quiet times in the mirror.

    Good luck kid.

  • Amber

    im going to marry him. i fucking swear it.

  • Rob

    He shouldn’t have let them take him alive.

  • http://twitter.com/toweleeie Towelie

    Rob: No. That’s my point. Kids only know how to live. That’s why we love them. They remind us of life.

    This one is a keeper. Never took a life and was smart.

    I hope they don’t get get difficult with him. I would be super bummed out. I mean, c’mon. The kid just needs a dad.

    I went to school with the following cat. Tell me, who is more fucked up? Who is the problem? It’s not Colton.

    The video cannot be shown dickfore at the moment. Please try again later.

    More like modern day folk douche. Rumor has it that his mama is very proud and can’t wait for the movie/book deal checks to show up in her trailer mailbox.

  • Rob Zimmerman

    the fact that you brought up bob dylan and woody guthrie at the end made me so fucking happy cause that is exactly what this reminds me of.

  • JM

    Yeah, this is all well and good. But…look at the dude. He looks like a bag of mashed up assholes.

    He did most of this shit in the middle of fucking nowhere, which is why nobody gave a shit. Go to Siberia, steal planes all day long. Nobody will give a fuck.

    I see a transgression of folk heroes, from Frank Abagnale, to DB Cooper…then to this guy?? One basically turned the world of fraud detection on it’s ear, stealing millions in the process, all while impersonating a lawyer/doctor/airline pilot. The next hijacked a plane, got $200,000 in ransom and then parachuted from the motherfucker never to be seen again. The next…stole some ice cream from empty houses, and played GTA for awhile, but he stayed away from San Andreas, and instead opted to roam around the forest area, devoid of cops.

    ha nice gta reference maybe he was looking for bigfoot, and i doubt bob and woody would wear a mercedes benz shirt.

    also reminds me of this:


  • lorge

    @JC – It’ll be a good book/movie, but Colton Moore and his family won’t make a dime off it. Son of Sam law.

  • commodore sixty four

    you went to school with pat tillman?

    Yup. Sad.

    Can I simply say what a reduction to find someone who really is aware of what theyre speaking about on the internet. You definitely know how you can bring a difficulty to light and make it important. More people must learn this and understand this side of the story. I cant imagine youre not more fashionable because you definitely have the gift.

    When I originally commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get three e-mails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service? Thanks!

    However, this usually backfires as reviewers are wise to the tactic and warn the public that the film may not be worth seeing and the films often do poorly as a result. Thanks.
