Legendary Australian character Jack Karlson passed away this week aged 82.

For those not familiar with this man, he is best known for his arrest outside a Brisbane restaurant in 1991, which years later would be watched by millions of people on the internet.

Some believe that the police arrested the wrong man that day, but Karlson was well known to law enforcement at the time as a low-level con man and petty thief.

This remains one of the greatest – and most bizarre – criminal arrests of all time.
