French Prankster Remi Gaillard Goes All Pirate, Takes a Boat for a Joyride

French prankster Remi Gaillard strikes again, this time embarking on a pirate adventure. Those of you who haven't seen his work so far, should know the man takes himself seriously in his giggle-delivering quest, which means this is not a pirate-style episode, but one that sees the man dressing as an actual sea outlaw.

The only difference to the kind of adventures actual pirates engage in is that the action doesn't take place far into international waters. Instead, Remi does his thing at the beach, as well as at the harbor.

We've been following this guy for years now and while his stunts are anything but predictable, we've managed to notice a trend - over the past two years or so, he seems to have increased the number of vehicles used in his adventures, be they land- or water-destined.

Then again, this was only normal, especially given the fact that one of the stunts that deserve the most credit for Remi's current reputation is the Mario Kart one (we've added the video at the bottom of the page). For the record, the less-than-legal moment mentioned here took place seven years ago - do we need to ask you not to try this at home?

For one thing, he seems to be ready to leave speed cameras, his life-long obsession, alone, but we're sure things will return to normal after a while. The part of our audience that's not sure what we're on about here should check out one of the guy's famous speed camera moments.

There's just one more thing we need to mention before inviting you to hit the "play" button below and let the action unfold - the Pirate trip seen here seems to be less personal space-friendly than some of the man's previous adventures and we hope this doesn't become a habit.

P.S.: Since Keanu Reeves used this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed to reveal he wanted to be a pirate, we also added his stunt as the third clip below. For the fun of it.
