    The festival this was filmed was Fuckparade, a political manifestation created in 1997 against the increasing commercialization of culture and public life and the misuse of the right of assembly by purely commercial ventures. So, it's kind of ironic that the biggest meme of the 2000's was someone manifesting precisely against what he himself ended up becoming. Therefore it's not surprising that Technoviking wasn't in favor of the exploitation of his image for commercial purposes! I totally support Technoviking on this! (he pointed at me once)

    Also, everyone characterizes his interaction with the intoxicated person was him telling the person to fuck off. He clearly told the person to sit on the vehicle and chill out. When the camera pans to the left, you can see the person sitting there. Technoviking tells him, again, to sit down with the second point. He was looking out for his community, and he did so fairly without removing anyone's right to assemble.

    The drunk guy stumbled into the girl and grabbed her to keep from falling. The Technoviking grabbed the drunk guy and told him to get back on the trailer he was riding on. He probably knew the guy and was trying to keep him from getting hurt or arrested for PI. If you watch closely you can see the drunk guy riding on the trailer and the Technoviking is keeping an eye on him.

    From a philosophical perspective I totally understand Technoviking he was admired for standing up against the bullies defending the powerless without any interests he was living life in a mental state of freedom dancing as nobody is watching projecting his energy, athletic physic and charisma without expecting to be recognized by it purposely, so his privacy obviously meant a lot for him, not everybody in the world wants to be famous, not everybody in the world is looking for a spotlight, not everybody in the world like to be laugh at for just being himself in the moment. Maybe we should question why is it that people sometimes do the stupidest things for a little bit of fame? why some people feel the need to be recognized for doing what's right? why some people think everything in life depends on how accepted you are in society?

    Yeah, and don't forget that this must be very irritating for most Americans (including them, who do actually not understand what Freedom of Speech means). By the way, freedom of expression is also there to protect the personal rights of the individual. Here the German court decided that the latter is more worthy of protection, because without personal rights it is not even possible to express an opinion. In America, anyone can (and does, see KZread) film and publish other people in public without being asked[1]. Freedom with the brain switched off is something very nice!:) Oh and it is irritating, too ... vice versa:) Hints: In Germany, the right to one's own image is a subset of the general right of personality protected by Art. 2 Paragraph 1 in conjunction with Art. 1 of the Grundgesetz(~= constitution). It gives the subject the power to direct the use of the image, including the right to object to publication. In ordinary national law, it is protected by the law on copyright in works of fine art and photography (art copyright law, in short: KunstUrhG) of January 9, 1907, and also Europe-wide by Art. 8 Para. 1 ECHR. Violation of the most personal area of life by taking pictures is punishable according to § 201a StGB, violation of the intimate area by taking pictures according to § 184k StGB. P.S.: My opinion on this matter is somewhat divided. But whatever. A sincere, adult and honorable person would have done the most normal thing in the world from the start: SIMPLY ASKED! Asked for permission. Most people seem to have forgotten that these days? ... [1] Of course, there are also limitations there, but not on the scale I am describing here.

    While I agree with your point that he is not a meme. A meme, while often nowadays humerous in nature is defined as an idea or behaviour, usually of cultural significance that spreads from one person to another through repetition or imitation. So as I say I agree he in no way is a meme, however the video, his actions and demeanor certainly seem to qualify.

    He wants to preserve his privacy. If his details were to be released it would go against everything he was trying to accomplish. The courts probably ruled in favour of excluding anything that could identify him. Imagine if his identity was disclosed and the hassle it would bring to his personal life. If he’s happy with his life and doesn’t want it to be screwed up then you’ve got to respect that.

His friends probably kept on teasing him about the video and instead of shaping up again, he thought to try to "bring the video down" and earn some money along with it to get even fatter. Also, what about other people also using the video, like this video. They're free to do what they want with it? Only Fritsch lost out for being the original uploader?

    This is an excellent video! I only knew parts of this but it's a fascinating look back into the early days of large-scale social media. During the pandemic, I started playing Fortnite with my son. I recognized "Intensity" immediately. My main locker combines it with Magnus, the Wagnerian Viking. Too bad it's not a traversal. Just to clarify, the drunk guy didn't run out of nowhere. The video is being recorded from the flatbed truck that has the sound system mounted. The drunk guy was sitting on the back. He jumped off, stumbling into the blue-haired girl and tried to wander off. The Technoviking stopped him, turned him around, and made him get back on. That's why he's pointing while looking *up*. The drunk guy didn't suddenly grow. He's sitting up on the back of the flatbed. I didn't piece that together myself until years later when there was some other vids posted that showed this part of the parade.

    Memes existed before the internet. A meme is any pop culture reference that becomes commonplace after spreading from person to person ("going viral"). It doesn't require a video, a picture, or the internet. "Where's the beef" started as advertising, but became a meme when people starting imitating it and caused it to go viral, even without any internet or any videos. Everyone understood the reference if someone said those three words back then, and it wasn't just because everyone watched the commercial. The commercial itself spread from TV, but the meme about it spread virally by word of mouth. "E.T. phone home" and "wax on, wax off" are a couple of examples of memes from movies from the same era. Mr. T's catch phrase, "I pity the fool," became a meme back then in the same way that T-Pain's "I'm on a boat" became a meme a decade ago. A humorous photo with a caption, commonly called a meme, is not actually a meme unless it goes viral and becomes well known enough to be "a thing." "O RLY" is a meme, but most of the things posted today as "memes" are not memes. It's not a meme if it does not go viral and become a pop culture "thing."

These "Legend has it","Story says","Some say", jokes; only work when you have no idea what really happens after the encounter, but anyone who watched the video knows the guy sat down, so it's not funny, at all.

    Those wallets are a ripoff. They sell generic ones for a fraction of the price. I don't mean to hate on someones hustle but the things are so overpriced it is insane. It's like the company behind them has decided to sell them at such a high price hoping that they can make a huge profit on the handful of idiots that bite, rather than price them reasonably and make a smaller profit on each wallet but actually make far more money by selling orders of magnitude more of them. I ordered a generic one and they are actually really nice looking and functional wallets but the price for the Ridge ones is just utterly absurd! And, furthermore, the generic ones are actually better since they don't have the word 'Ridge' plastered across the front! If I ever saw someone with a Ridge one I think I would actually burst out laughing at the thought that for the same price you could literally buy 20 identical wallets! A fool and his money are easily parted, I guess!
