Default This is a Riot: College Professor Spazzout

Berkeley laptop thief is scared out of his wits by professor (Click link to view...this is a professor going on a crazy rant)

The last few minutes of this video from a biology class at Berkeley is of professor explaining the terrifying consequences that will soon befall the student that stole his laptop. Hell, I'm 500 miles away from Berkeley and I'm scared after watching this. (Forward to 48:50. It's a RealPlayer file, unfortunately, so be prepared for it to stop playing at least three times while you're watching it).

Enjoy,
Jeff

Methinks he did something worse.

A. He disclosed information that was on his disk. If the thief had no knowledge of the value of the data on that laptop, he does now.

B. If nothing else, he gave the thief good reason to destroy the laptop.

Personally, I believe the prof. did more harm than good here...but it's still amusing.

He did a good job of trumping it all up. I suspect he's in nearly as much trouble as the kid is if all this data (and any copies of it) isn't returned. It's always fun to watch a professor with an inflated ego and a flair for drama when he finds himself in a pinch.

Agreed. These are things I meant to say as well, but forgot.

By the way, whose bright idea was it to steal a laptop for the test? Like, do you really think the prof will give the test that's on his laptop now?
