apparently, it’s not that hard to fly a plane

or so colton harris-moore, aka the barefoot bandit, will probably tell you. just 19, he was caught by the police in the Bahamas today for a string of crime across the states including stealing several planes throughout the two years he was on the run. he was reportedly barefoot when taken in by police, like he often was when he committed his crimes. strangely, harris-moore has also become a little of a hero for what his mother has called victimless crimes (stolen property and burglaries). he has over 70,000 facebook fans and you can find “Fly, Colton, Fly” t shirts in seattle, where he is originally from. rumors are that his mother is in talks to sell his story to Hollywood. hopefully, she’ll get him a deal that includes shoes.
