Are they going to kindly offer to support everyone to prevent further injury?

Perhaps they should have let him fall, and then let him judge the full impact of the zapping

If you can't queue for weeks you can watch here

Brunstrom's best quote " Ooooh Arrrgh - Bloody hell" :lol:

There's also, "I'm now going to put my body where my mouth is".

It's usually just his foot he puts in his mouth!

Watching him speak, does anyone else think "Alan Partridge"?

Does Alan Partridge sounds like a dog? Because this bloke is completely barking.

Yeah. Now you mention it, when he was zapped it did sound similar to Partridge's "I've stood on a spiiiiiiiiiike" moment.

Quality entertainment from PC Brainstorm I thought.

Is it me or are they confusing "taser" with "air-taser"?

When did it become legal to own these anyway? Surely it can't be "police only"?

They should have had an auction on Ebay for this and put the money to charity, such as to support those fighting speeding tickets.

If I had won, I would have kept it going for a lot longer
