He probably has diplomatic status with the Mushroom Kingdom. Cops can't touch him.

Besides, he had a power star. If they did touch him, they'd just spin out.

Such a sick video !
you should definitively check on his website (nimportequi.com) for other crazy one.
I guess cops from montpellier (where he is from and where he commits all of these ... things) are used to arrest him. I wonder as well how he manage to pay all the tickets he gets ... maybe a system of fan contribution.

My half-remembered French skills tell me that the caption near the end reads, "It is in doing something that we become someone", or more literally, "It is in doing no-matter-what that we become no-matter-who."
